!Xaus Lodge
Overview & Capacity
!Xaus Lodge is not a conference venue and we won't pretend otherwise: 12 chalets for 26 guests on a dune overlooking a salt pan, 350 km and a 4x4 transfer from Upington, owned by the Khomani San and Mier communities. There's no meeting room, no AV, and connectivity is a rumour. What it offers instead is the most powerful leadership-retreat canvas in the Northern Cape — full-board, game drives, first-people storytelling around the boma, and a night sky that resets any exco. Take the board, leave the projector.
