Wow it is so beautiful. So much to do and see. Meals were fantastic. Lots of special touches. It was our anniversary and they decorated our table and gave us a complimentary bottle of champayne making our evening very special. We loved it.

What is there not to like about the Cavern? The food was great, with various options to choose from. And all staff members were friendly and helpful. Our room was excellent. We particularly liked the fact that there were many different places in and around the main area; something for everyone. We managed to go for a couple of hikes around the area, but we'd really like to go back to explore more of the area!

Stayed with family of 10 in 5 Bedroom manor. It is a beautiful home in the mountains. Large dining and lounge area with deck overlooking mountains and hot water splash pool. Very well furnished and designed en suite rooms. Very private with Air conditions and fireplace. Have vacationed extensively in the berg with family. This was by far the most comfortable and memorable. The last few kilometres to resort was a bit challenging however if you drive carefully it’s manageable. All the staff were excellent. Congratulations to management.

We stayed here once in 2009 and loved it so much. I always wanted to return one day. We are currently on holiday in SA and on a whim decided to stay over. We were given an upgraded chalet and all I can say is WOW! The chalet is so nice. The bed was comfy, the linen crisp, soft towels. Lovely kitchen. Stunning view. My son enjoyed the drving range.

The attention to detail both in the chalets as well as the whole resort. Gardens lush and beautiful. Bird life, views of the river and the mountains, hearing the cow bells and call of the herd men. Having no load shedding was a huge plus! Chalets have all you need, are comfortable with good quality linen on the beds.

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.

Overall, the place gave off "cheap, stingy" vibes.

Overall, the place gave off "cheap, stingy" vibes. Not value for money. We paid R17k for 4 nights at Fairways self catering and could not get fresh towels, the beds are uncomfy, the fireplace didn't work well, there isn't much for the kids to do when it's raining and cold. We booked for dinner only to be told they don't cater for kids and there's no other restaurant open. The jacuzzi temperatures are set way too high and ended up burning my skin. The only heated pool for kids gets too crowded, another heated pool for kids would be great.
