We loved everything, a great place to stay. We spend 2 nights here during our honeymoon. We felt very welcome, they had a nice gift for us as newlyweds which we enjoyed. The quality of the food was very nice. We also booked a private hike with a very nice guide. We would love to come back soon!

    The setting was beautiful and the grounds so well maintained. The rooms were exceptionally comfortable in every way. The staff were welcoming on check in, and wherever we were, they were friendly, courteous and helpful. The food was exceptional and we couldn’t find any aspect of our stay that could have been improved on.

    Excellent location so much to do. The views were breath taking. People are friendly and welcoming. Excellent facilities. Security was excellent. No medical facilities near by almost stepped on a puff adder while walking on a path. More information on emergencies for snake bites required. Will definitely visit soon. Overall an excellent and magical destination.

    Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

    I would request for a gym, sona and spa to be available on the premises. The food most definitely worth every cent, the chef was definitely cheffing. The staff made me and my children enjoy their stay a lot, and planning to save more money for a lengthier stay. The place is just too big that even for a whole week there would be activities in and out of the property meaning that being bored is most definitely no option. Views are just breath taking at night and during the day.

    There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.
