This is the most amazing place to stay. The staff is very friendly and the whole set-up is excellent.
The stay at Kamkirri was great
People and staff wonderful
Food is great
It very relaxing
What an absolutely delightful hidden gem. Hands down of the most beautiful places in the country, and the fact that they have excellent service to go with the view really doesn't hurt. We opted for a log cabin during our 2-night, 3-day stay and upon arrival were immediately transported into a completely different world of beauty and relaxation. Werner was right when he said "Welcome to paradise". At first we were slightly concerned over having to drive the 22km gravel stretch to get there (since it had been rainy the previous day), but we were pleasantly surprised to find that the dirt road to Khamkirri was in better shape than the tar roads we encountered in both Upington and Kakamas. Incredibly well maintained and a beautiful drive between the farms and mountainous regions of Kakamas. The entire stay was enjoyable from start to finish, and the food and drinks were delicious enough for me to willingly sacrifice going up a pant size. The Sundowner drive is also an absolute MUST, where you will get to enjoy the Orange River in all of it's magnificent glory snaking it's way through the green Kalahari, bringing everything it touches to abundant life. More importantly: The stay is clean, the people are exceptionally welcoming and friendly, and the beer is ice cold. What an experience it was, my only regret being not staying there longer.
Already planning my next visit. Well done Khamkirri, well done Philippa and well done Werner. You are all an absolute treat.
Clean. Friendly service.
Beautiful place. Friendly staff. The camp site and ablutions spotless. Restaurant with excellent food. Air-conditioned River tent !! Highly recommended.
Exquisite stay! A bit nerve-wrecking with the river rising to underneath the braai deck, and a threat of vacating our very comfortable and well-equipped tented chalet. Will certainly return again. Thank, Philippa and Werner!
Most beautiful private camping sites. Perhaps just a bit too close to ordinary sites. Exceptionally friendly staff. Excellently maintained premises. Lovely dining in magic venue. Good value for money. Only negative the exceptionally loud party music from an adjacent farm on during the entire Saturday night. Very little Philippa and Danie can do about that.
Brilliant place to relax and recharge. Accommodation spacious and well equipped. Friendly and helpfull staff.
Fantastic people and surreal surroundings.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the river tent, it had everything we needed and the airconditioner was a big plus. If hopefully we return to the area we will definitely use Kamkhirri again. Vernon was a very friendly host and went out of his way for us.

Kakamas Reviews
Daar is net een woord om ons verblyf by Palmhof Chalets te beskryf en dit is ÄWESOME". Alles was perfek en ons sal definitief weer daar oorbly en Palmhof hoogs aanbeveel. Van die bespreeking tot en met die vertrek was alles perfek. Julle het 'n spesiale stukkie in die legkaart van ons Richtersveld toer.
Beautiful and green after all the rain. The Pienk Padstal is just next level.
People are really friendly.
