48 guests' feedbackA wonderful place with exceptional attention to detail such as a selection of quality coffees, teas and good welcome chocolates, and beautiful fresh flowers. The very inviting veranda that overlooks a beautiful garden and views made the stay perfect. The instructions were very clear and Jenni made us feel very welcome. We will definitely be back again.
Overall very good, I am a happy customer.
A wonderful place with exceptional attention to detail. Superb.
You won't find a better place! I will definitely stay there again.
Very neat, clean, with quality facilities and extras, such as a selection of quality coffees and good chocolates to make it more special.
Aloe Croft is ideal if you want to get away from city life. The visiting area is spacious and you have the most beautiful view. The place literally has everything you can think of. We have never felt so pampered at any other accommodation. We could not have chosen a better place. They made us feel right at home. Aloe Croft is also very close to all kinds of attractions.
Aloe Croft offers very neat and comfortable accommodation. Whether you are traveling for business or leisure, this is definitely the place to be.
Had a nice comfortable, peaceful overnight stay in a security estate. The beautiful garden and the geese that came to say hello were a bonus. Jenni made sure everything went well.
We really enjoyed our stay. Aloe Croft is a wonderful venue situated inside a security estate. We felt safe, and the accommodation was supremely comfortable with everything one would need catered for. I would highly recommend Aloe Croft to anyone considering staying there. Fantastic venue with a great veranda for relaxing and socialising.
Very neat. New and clean. Place is suitable for longer stay/holiday with a neat kitchen and barbecue. Very nice environment. Lots of little things that are done in the house make it very comfortable to stay there (such as nice coffee, milk, water, spices, washing machine). Communication from own.
Will stay there again in the future.
We had a great time staying in the beautiful unit. Really nice and tidy unit with everything you need and more.
Aloe Croft was fantastic - We had such a great stay. The rooms are spacious and well equipped with everything a traveler might need. The atmosphere in the accommodation is relaxed and very comfortable. I highly recommend this place for a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Peaceful, quiet, beautiful back garden. I loved how there was backup already available for load shedding instances. The rooms are clean and in good order. Perfect accommodation and supplies for self-catering. My partner and I are hoping to come back again.
This was my 3rd stay at Aloe Croft, and definitely not my last. I love the accommodation, comfortable and very clean. The verandah was my own little piece of heaven. So peaceful.
I did not personally stay at Aloe Croft. However, our sales staff member really loved it. It ticked all the right boxes.
Overall an excellent venue. Very comfortable.
Aloe Croft offers spotless and tidy accommodation in a peaceful setting, central to Howick, Hilton, and Pietermaritzburg. The cottage had everything one needs for a comfortable stay. It was great seeing the buck graze on the lawn in front of the unit.
Aloe Croft offers excellent overnight accommodation. Clean, neat and luxurious. We were kindly received by the hostess and she spared no effort to make our stay as pleasant as possible.
We had a great stay at Aloe Croft. The unit is beautifully clean, comfortably furnished and well located for exploring the Midlands. We would definitely recommend Aloe Croft.
The accommodation is very stylish and everything was very neat and clean. Had a great stay and can't complain about anything. Easy to get to the highway. Safe, nice view, plenty of space, great lawn and porch.
The stay exceeded all our expectations. Really a special cottage - very spacious, clean, tidy and tastefully equipped. Jenni is an excellent hostess and went out of her way to make us feel at home.
We stayed a week and it was awesome and tranquil. The rooms are spacious, beds are comfortable and a huge patio for outdoor dining, lounging and braaing. Jenni and her staff and security guards are friendly. We loved it there!
See stars.
It was one of the cleanest places we stayed the night. The kitchen was equipped with everything one could possibly need. Beautiful view.
All instructions were given clearly and map directions to entrance to the estate. We were even gifted freshly baked muffins on Sunday morning. My mom and I felt at home. Lovely little cottage with everything we needed.
We had a great stay in a very quiet and peaceful location. The cottage was clean and very well appointed supply everything anyone would need.
Jenni's hospitality!
From arrival to departure we were well looked after by Jenni. Everything necessary for self-catering was available in the cottage, a lot of thought has been put into extras also. A beautiful cottage! Pity our stay was only a long weekend. Thank you Jenni for your hospitality.
From the moment we arrived till we left we had an amazing experience. Jenni really went out of her way to make us feel like this was "our place" and not just accommodation. Will definitely book there again.
Kon nooit verstaan as mense sê 'n huis weg van die huis. Maar Aloe Croft het dit laat sin maak. Ek het al in baie plekke gebly en die is definitief bo aan die top 10 lys.
See rating.
This is the second time I have stayed at Aloe Croft, and I will definitely be back. It is lovely and peaceful. All the little extra touches Jenni adds makes it that much more special. It is comfortable and clean. Jenni is also very attentive.
I think it would be more transparent to confirm with guests that the shower is an open one especially during cold and rainy periods; however, the website does highlight this fact. There are some impractical things like the basin and the metal stand around the toilet. The rest of the facilities were acceptable, i.e. hospitality, security, notifications, cleanliness and we did sleep well.
Aloe Croft is an unbelievable place that offers you everything that you can think of. Clean accommodation, a fully equipped kitchen with everything you can think of, even a washing machine and a dryer. The big patio makes it perfect for family and friends to socialise and the view is breathtaking. Happy clients are very important to the owner. The photos do not do justice to Aloe Croft because it is much more beautiful than on the photos. Keep up the good work!
Aloe Croft is a very modern, neat and comfortable place. We stayed in the Buhrii unit which is very well-equipped and spacious kitchen/living and outside area. Beautiful and peaceful surroundings.The purpose of our trip was for Comrades, therefore was ideal for us to access Pietermaritzburg, however it is also close to attractions in the midlands. The host Jenni is wonderful. She went over and above to make our stay comfortable and so many special touches, such as freshly baked muffins brought to our door! I would definitely recommend this place, it was a pure delight. Thank you Jenni.
Very clean, best value for money in the Midlands Meander. The photos on the website doesn't really give you an idea how stunning the place is.
Excellent hospitality and a neat and well appointed space. Had a great stay, thanks Jen!
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Aloe Croft. My room was very cosy and was spotlessly clean. The veranda was wonderful, especially in the early morning sun. Jenni made sure that I had directions beforehand, and she was there to welcome me when I arrived. There are a host of little extra touches that made my stay unforgettable, from the bowl of fresh fruit to a piping hot muffin before my departure. (Even Mozzie spray). I definitely hope to return to Aloe Croft.
The hostess received me in a friendly and professional manner and made sure that everything was OK. It is a safe environment with the highest standards, view, room and facilities. I would recommend it and would stay there again.
Amazing 2 day stay at Aloe Croft. Thank you, Jenni for your hospitality and warm welcome. The freshly baked, still warm, muffin Saturday morning was a winner! Fantastic service and absolutely 5 star. Very neat and clean with a few extras that I really welcomed, including fresh fruit and a few more surprises! Wonderful place for a break away and close to all the Amber care centers, if you want to visit your beloved parents. Ten out of ten, Jenni!
Thank you Jenni for all the effort that you put in to make our stay absolutely amazing. What a nice place to arrive and really relax. This is one of the best establishments that I have ever stayed at. It is nearby the Midmar Dam and Merrivale for getting food and groceries. Nothing was too much of an effort and the reception was great. The kitchen and rest of the establishment are top quality. The surprise receiving hot muffins Saturday morning shows the commitment of Jenni's personal care and service to the guests. The making available of the braai facility to curb the cold was excellent for a cold Friday night. Thank you again and we will definitely visit you again.
We really enjoyed our stay at Aloe Croft. It's safe, clean and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle. Jenni went to great lengths to make us feel comfortable and welcome. I would recommend Aloe Croft anytime.
We had a great stay. Beautiful place felt like a home away from home. Jenni put in a lot of effort and we really enjoyed the accommoddation. I'll recommend Aloe Croft anytime and I will definitely stay there again!
We really appreciated the accommodation and personal attention by the owner. Never felt like our privacy was threatened and we slept great and had wonderful time on the stoep and enjoyed the area and the sounds of the night.
We had such a nice stay even if it was only one night. It was so welcoming, quiet and peaceful and very safe. Will definitely stay again if we are in the area. Thank you very much again.
It was an absolute privilege for us and friends to be able to stay at Aloe Croft for the long weekend. Jenni, the owner, really went out of her way to make us feel welcome, from dinner reservations to freshly baked muffins on Sunday morning. The unit was beautiful, clean and has just that "personal touch" that makes you feel at home. We will go back for sure.
Aloe Croft is exactly as the pictures show. The apartment was very tidy and clean. Everything that is needed is provided. Jenni is very helpful and friendly. We will definitely stay at Aloe Croft again.
