Home away from home stylish & comfortable

We booked the executive room which was not supposed for kids and they said they will make an exception. So thankful for that and its such a lovely room big enough for the kids to run around when it rained. Breakfast was brilliant & the kitchen staff exceptional.

That we only booked 3 nights.

Very comfortable

Some difficulty finding the Lodge as Road markings are poor, but once found we were given a warm welcome and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Instructions for drivers.

If I could give more than 10 if I could

Our room (s) were particularly spacious. We were in the Villa area which is well designed to cater for the rooms that are in that part of the complex

Luxurious spacious and quiet accommodation.

The staff were pleasant and friendly. They had a lovely fresh breakfast with something for everyone and a hearty fire lighting.

We would have loved to stay longer.

Superb

Friendly staff, good size rooms, lovely breakfast, secure parking. Only stayed one night and went out. But did have a few drinks in a very pleasant lounge area, so overall very satisfying

Was a little surprised at the location, as we had to drive down a fairly intimidating road with a lot of people about to get to the Lodge, which was only about half a mile further down. Wouldn't want to be doing that at night!

Superb

The property is truly amazing. Its layout, the gardens and communal areas, the pool.

It is situated right by some slums and if you arrive by the onset of dark from that side of town it is quite scary for a first time Traveller to SA. The property is safe though, but since there is no food service at night it makes you wonder whether you want to go out again.

One of the most charming places I've stayed, and made for an outstanding stop on our ZA vacay! Visiting from the US, where the "guest house" does not exist as such. The quaint size, personalized service, amazing breakfast, generously stocked honesty bar, spacious room (we stayed in large garden suite), and amazing pool/grounds were highlights. Overall the character of the place was amazing. Old yet new, charming with modern amenities, friendly yet efficient, and affordable (bang for your buck)! Also of note is the prime location: Quiet, yet close to cliff walk, restaurants, beaches, etc.

Some issues with mosquitos in room. Was hot during our visit, so wanted the windows open, but this led to disruptive bugs! The fan helped with this, but not possible during load shedding.
