Have you ever wanted to be just completely and utterly alone on holiday?
Well, if you fancy taking that to the extreme, you might be up for Shipwreck Lodge, accommodation built just for that purpose by African travel experts Natural Selection.
Shipwreck Lodge is for people who watched Lost and thought actually, that seems alright, maybe thats how far from the office I need to be to be relaxed.
Located in Namibia, Shipwreck Lodge is in the remote north western region and is designed to resemble the shipwrecks that litter the Skeleton Coast. Its the only luxury accommodation within the National Park, a spooky place with dunes, plains, and bleached whale bones amongst over a thousand ships.
The accommodation itself is stunning and well worth the trip, but the surrounding area isnt as desolate as you might think. Its home to a wildlife habitat that includes endangered species like the desert elephant and brown hyena. Here you can also find the only other viable lion population in Namibia outside of the Etosha National Park.

Worried youll get bored? You can hang out with the animals, climb the dunes, visit the Clay Castles, go fishing, explore, see the local flora and succulents, then come home and enjoy wood-burning stoves and thick blankets to keep out any chill.
