Kagga Kamma Lodge in Cape Town makes living in a cave fun!

We bet you have never come across a stay this unique and fun in all your holidays so far. Nestled within the wilderness of the Cederberg Mountains, located a little outside of Cape Town in South Africa, is the unique Kagga Kamma Lodge, a truly one-of-a-kind retreat.

This incredibly unique lodge gives a new meaning to living in a secluded location, and surely makes living in a cave a really fun thing to do. This secluded haven offers a captivating blend of luxury, tranquility, and unparalleled natural beauty.

The lodge is situated approximately 250 km from Cape Town, the bustling capital city of South Africa. Here you are either sleeping completely out in the open, directly under the night sky, or you are staying in a cave suite or a thatched hut. Though the lodge offers a range of accommodations to suit various tastes and preferences, most of the visitors to this lodge seem to go for the very unique Cave Suites.



These Cave Suites are where guests can sleep in the rock formations that have been shaped by the elements over millions of years. However, it is important to note that the surrounding may have been the result of natural weathering, but with the help of the human touch, these Cave Suites have been further designed to accommodate a rustic yet comfortable living space. To put it simply, these cave dwellings are quite the comfortable stay while they, at the same time, let you connect intimately with the geological wonders of the region.
