Wonderful piece of quiet and serenity to enjoy wonderful landscapes, lovely pool, friendly and efficient staff. Wonderful clear night skies. Breakfast was really good with lots of choices. Restaurant for dinner is ok, a little overpriced but understandable with their remote location. Be warned there is a minimum of 38km of gravel road to reach here from Ceres side, but it is worth the effort with wonderful rock formations and viewpoints along the way
It was honestly an amazing experience. We arrived at 16:00 and immediately joined the sunset tour. Afterwards, we enjoyed a delicious Black Angus fillet and ended the evening with a beautiful stargazing tour. The next morning, we did the rock painting tour, which was also very special. A special thank you to our lovely guide, Carmen. She explained everything thoroughly, always with a big smile, and made the experience even more enjoyable. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
Kagga Kamma was wonderful! It is so peaceful and quiet, has incredible, vast views of the untouched natural landscape, and is bustling with beautiful flora and fauna. It’s so relaxing and good for the soul. The staff are kind and friendly, and really seem to take pride in their jobs. It is an extremely remote location. I think they do a good job of making it comfortable and trying to deliver elevated hospitality despite the challenges posed by the location. It is a nature reserve, not a resort. We loved it so much, and we will be back!
We had the best wedding and honeymoon at Kagga Kamma. From the moment we got there until the moment we left, we were treated basically like royalty. The staff were really friendly and very helpful. The cave suite was so breathtakingly beautiful! We will definitely be going back for our anniversary! Would 10000% recommend this place to anyone!!
Kagga Kamma is one of our favourite stops in the Cederberg. We have stayed in the caves and camped. The scenery is magnificent and hikes are well worth doing. The pristine San rock art is some of the best we have seen. Rooms and chalets could do with an update. Staff are friendly, helpful and professional.
