We had the loft suite and it was absolutely beautiful! Every detail is so tasteful, the decor the gardens, the breakfast… highly recommend and would suggest more than one night. It’s an exceptional place to stay. They even washed our car before we left! Loved it!

Almost perfect
My wife and I stayed for two nights. We had the Africa Suite which was comfortable, well furnished and spacious with a huge naturally-lit bathroom. The property itself is well maintained with lovely semi tropical gardens and a nice pool area. 4 stars would not be enough but I would have given 4 1/2 if I could for a couple of reasons. (1) the hotel is a long way from the centre (30/40 minute walk at least and) where most of the restaurants are and (2) although efficient, the lady on reception was not particularly welcoming (but not unpleasant) and seemed to have little interest in us, something that we have not found with other hotels during our stay. Would we go back? Probably not although it really is a very nice property for a relaxing stay.

Don’t hesitate- book this place if it’s available
This place was the nicest we have stayed in South Africa.. we had the espirit suite and it was an enormous and luxurious set of rooms overlooking the lake. Much has been said about the springbok s and zebra in the adjoining field but mention must be made of the crickets,and the weaver birds we watched from the private patio in front of our room. Magical. The room and gardens were filled with floating flower heads. The plentiful towels were thick and fluffy. The toiletries were good quality . And the room contained ground coffee and a percolator, home made rusks, fruit, water, and a well stocked minibar. The super king 4 poster bed had fabulous quality bedding and was so comfortable. The breakfast. Oh the breakfast was sooo good. Fruit salad yoghurt, cereals and juice followed a menu of cooked options. I thoroughly recommend the French toast. Oh, and the younger berry jam is scrumptious.scones, crosissqnta and good qulitycoffee. It was a feast. And this is after we ate a fab dinner at the next door restaurant the previous night. The welcome at this blissful place was warm, and we felt very safe. I can’t recommend this place enough. Sadly we stayed for one night only but it was a long way from a stop over- this place is a destination and an event. It has a superb well kept ( and warm!!)swimming pool , wonderful gardens, and great communal indoor areas too. It is well worth a detour just to have this experience!

A Lovely Hotel
Perfect quaint and comfortable hotel that was a great stop for us on our roadtrip. We loved the animals on the property as well as the refreshing pool. The couple who owns this hotel does a great job in ensuring their guests are welcomed and comfortable during their stay.

Es gibt noch das kleine Paradies! Vom herzlichen Empfang in dieser romantischen Unterkunft in einer liebevoll eingerichteten Suite fühlten wir uns sofort wohl, konnten entspannen und waren von einer gepflegten Gartenanlage umgeben. Springböcke und ein Zebra gehören mit zu dieser Anlage. Der Frühstückstisch liebevoll und edel gedeckt. Wir waren wunschlos glücklich . Gerne wären wir noch länger geblieben.

LOVE this place!
Love this place! Excellent standards, really well appointed, fantastic pool and jacuzzi overlooking springboks and zebras- the view was a lovely surprise! Can’t fault the service. We slept really well and breakfast was fantastic- we were even catered for a little early due to having to leave for our flight. Can’t recommend this place enough.
