Description

Oranjerus Resort is a true oasis, offering a lush, 4-star experience on the green banks of the mighty Orange River. Located just outside Upington, it provides a wonderfully comfortable and scenic base for travellers exploring the Green Kalahari region. The entire resort is characterized by its manicured gardens, mature shade trees, and a clear focus on providing a high-quality, relaxing environment for all its guests.

For those who love to camp without sacrificing comfort, the resort offers a premium outdoor experience. The selection of spacious campsites is situated on well-tended lawns, each equipped with its own braai facility, clean water tap, and reliable electricity. A standout feature is the quality of the shared facilities; the two luxury ablution blocks are maintained to a high standard, ensuring a clean and pleasant experience that aligns with the resort's 4-star grading.

The Orange River is the focal point of the resort, providing beautiful views and a sense of tranquility. A large, sparkling swimming pool offers a perfect escape from the Northern Cape heat, while the on-site restaurant and bar provide a convenient and enjoyable option for those evenings when you don't feel like cooking. It’s this combination of natural beauty and upscale amenities that makes Oranjerus a premier destination in the region.

We had a wonderful stay at Oranjerus River Resort Campsite for two nights. The location right on the Orange River is absolutely beautiful and so peaceful. Falling asleep in our tent to the sound of the river flowing was one of the highlights of our stay. We also loved seeing the odd monkeys around the campsite.
The campsite was clean, and the braai area overlooking the river was fantastic - perfect for relaxing and enjoying sundowners. Having the restaurant next to the campsite was also very convenient, and we really enjoyed our dinner there.
A special thank you to Johan at the convenience shop, who was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We had a fantastic experience from start to finish and hope to return again one day. Highly recommended!

We were treated so well by Johan. The resort is beautiful and so well kept. Because we r older and i have a few health issues Johan gave us a private ablution and sent us 2 sandwiches at 7pm. How amazing is that. The care and attention was brilliant. The best we have so far throughout our trip t Botswana, Namibia and back into SA.

We had a lovely stay at Oranjerus. Camped at the premium sites with own ablution. It’s very special to have these unrestricted views of the river and the hospitality of everyone at the resort make you feel right at home. Having the restaurant on site is a real treat with good quality food well priced. We really enjoyed the breakfast after packing up and proper coffee! The staff and Joey’s attendance to everyone’s needs and having my children being accommodated will have us coming back again and again!

Stayed over at Oranjerus after a 6 week trip to Namibia and Kgalagadi. Last time I visited was before NC Famous Lodges had taken over Oranjerus and wow, wow, wow👌.
I could not recognize the place. A complete transition had taken place. We were allocated a site on the front with a view of the river which comes with a private ablution.
It was the perfect stopover before heading back to Cape Town and can highly recommend Oranjerus if you are visiting the Kgalagadi. (or looking to spend a couple of days on the Orange)
The restaurant has also been upgraded and we enjoyed a pizza on the deck whilst watching the sun set over the Orange River. The staff were amazing and even got a complementary "braai broodjie" each when setting up camp 😋.
Oranjerus will unquestionably be our stopover for next year's Kgalagadi visit!

Five-star camping! Clean, neat, and exceptionally well maintained. The staff were friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable.

We were pleasantly surprised by the thoughtful extras — a cleaned braai grid, firelighter, matches, and even braaibroodjies provided in the house. Such attention to detail truly sets this place apart.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Oranjerus Resort and will gladly return.
