"Luxurious and personal service."

The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and no request for assistance was a problem for them. The farm is well situated, being close enough to the tourist attractions, but far enough for you to just escape and enjoy the countryside. Fantastic amenities, so comfortable. We would definitely stay there again.

"An amazing experience."

From the time of our arrival, we were welcomed with open arms. The hosts are exceptional attending to every aspect of comfort. The units are beautiful, comfortable and cozy. The farm itself offers spectacular views and breathtaking hiking routes. I would highly recommend Andes Clarens Guesthouse to anyone in need of crisp fresh air, tranquility and top-class hospitality.

"Wonderful!"

Indescribably beautiful!

"Beautiful accommodation close to Clarens, very high standards, hotel quality."

Excellent stay. Excellent value for money!

"Incorrigible."

The extra things make a difference. Unsolicited attention, cold wine on arrival, hot sausage rolls on awakening and nothing was extra. The car was washed, very very neat. Friendly.

"Unbelievably beautiful place."

Very nice stay in the beautiful place. The gardens are something special. The place is nice and big for two, modern and well furnished. Will stay there again. Very nice views. About 6 minutes from town.

"Our big disappointment was that there was no one there when we arrived."

After a 6 hour drive, we had to sit around in the cafe and wait for the owners to show up. We did confirm time of arrival by e-mail 2 days before the time. I took my elderly mother with me, asked for beds to be moved apart, but was told that this would not be possible. It was then done on the day of arrival. You also get the idea on the ad that the unit you stay in is more private, but it is connected to a 2nd unit, which was not ideal. One also shares a porch with the unit next door, not ideal. Our Dstv did not work for 3 days. The self-catering facilities are very limited, with very few cutlery, no meat or steak knives etc. Very little space in the kitchen to be self-sufficient. It would also have been nice if a small basic breakfast was included in the price, as the overnight rates are among the highest in the area. Breakfast is available at R220 per person, a bit excessive! I must at least mention that the unit was very tidy, mattresses comfortable and a neat bathroom. Incredibly beautiful garden. We had read beforehand about hospitality and that people's vehicles were even washed, but unfortunately did not experience it ourselves. In short, I think the price of the unit, for what you get, is way too high. Included breakfast could perhaps justify the price.

"The guest house is top class!"

Very tidy, and very friendly staff who made us feel very welcome. Fantastic service, on a picture nice place. Very safe!

"Beautiful farm setting, hospitable and excellent facilities."

Very friendly welcome with coffee/tea and biscuits. Unit's kitchen well equipped to comfortably prepare food for 2 people if necessary with a quiet barbecue in the garden. Vertekke is spacious with a quality king size bed and large comfortable bathroom. Porch offers a nice view of the farm and surroundings. Hospitality of the owners is 5 star. Highly recommend.

"Ten out of ten."

Nice host, top class comfort, nice rural farm view from comfortable porch. Lovely silence at night. We really appreciated the glass of sherry against the cold!

"Great!"

Hands down one of the best guesthouses we have ever stayed in in the entire Free State! Everything was just PERFECT! Of top quality! The gardens are beautiful, the decor is stylish, it's clean and tidy! The snacks we were surprised with were a big treat! The owners are hospitable and know how to do things 100% right! We will definitely go again!

"Brilliant, location and setting was absolutely stunning."

From the time of arrival to departure we were made to feel very welcome. The hospitality yet privacy was amazing and very special. Attention to detail in the units is spectacular and very tasteful. The hosts were also very accommodating with any special requests.

"Beautiful!"

Very stylish, beautiful place. We really enjoyed the tranquility.

"Outstanding."

Outstanding. Very pretty. Clean, neat and stylish. Friendly host. One of the best stays ever.

"Best Guesthouse we have stayed at in ages."

The owners were so welcoming and friendly. The rooms are immaculate, so stylishly decorated and clean. The attention to detail in each room made us feel right at home. The garden was breathtaking. Can't wait for our next visit.

"Friendly reception, beautiful gardens."

The unit is very comfortably furnished and very tastefully furnished. Our stay was very pleasant.

"Perfect luxury in a farm setting."

We stayed 2 nights at Andes. The room is extremely tastefully furnished, very practical, with a handy kitchenette and excellent bathroom. The room opens onto a lovely porch that attracts you like a magnet. Philna and her skilled team put a lot of effort into preparing the room. There were lots of places of fresh flower arrangements, water and candy treats. The room was perfectly clean and tidy and the bed slept wonderfully. The bathroom has double facilities and is wonderfully spacious and luxurious. We enjoyed breakfast every morning - truly the best we've ever had! The guest house is located a few minutes outside Clarens on a lovely farm where sheep and cattle still bleat and horses show off - and you are in the village within a few minutes. We will definitely be back again and again now that we have discovered this hospitality and gem.

"Beautiful surroundings, excellent service."

Usually a second visit, to a place where the first visit was excellent, is somewhat of a disappointment. Not this time. Our second was even better than the first in 2016. Philna is an excellent hostess and the service was excellent. Our 4 days felt like two weeks. Everyone at Andes made us feel special. We recommend Andes - it's the best guest house we've ever visited.

"Fantasies. The best service."

Very nice stay. Best service and accommodation. Friendly host and wife. Thank you very much, we will visit again.

"Absolutely fantastic!"

Our experience exceeded our expectations - the most beautiful views, peaceful, quiet and so many extra pampering, which we did not expect. Personally, I really appreciated the underfloor heating, because I get cold easily. A little gem! Hope to visit again soon. Thank you very much for your hospitality and genuine kindness.

"Beautiful and luxurious."

From the moment we stepped in, we felt like honored guests - the accommodation is beautiful and luxurious. We were received hospitably and were treated like VIPs - many thanks to Marius and Philippa for sharing your beautiful piece of earth with us.

"Absolutely gorgeous and meticulous attention to detail."

Our hosts went above and beyond to ensure that our stay was comfortable in this gorgeous guest house. Every little detail spoke of their passion for hosting people and making them feel welcome in a haven of luxury and beauty. From spoiling us with a glass of sherry to abate the cold, snacks placed in beautiful bowls, a delicious breakfast treat, game viewing, a walk to the bush church under arching poplar trees, and the elegantly decorated guest suite - it was all just fantastic. They even washed my dust-covered 4x4 on the morning of our departure! Honestly haven't felt so heart-sore to leave a place in a long time. A pair of motorised paragliders on the neighbouring property treated us to a beautiful display of their aerial antics too. The kids squealed with excitement when they flew down within a couple of meters overhead to smile and wave at us! It was an unforgettable experience, thank you so much.

"Most pleasant & beautiful stay."

Andes Clarens Guest House is beautiful, with the nicest accommodation, and friendliest owners. Everything was top quality and great. This guest house is highly recommended for an unforgettable stay in Clarens.

"Good quality, exceptional hospitality."

Exceptionally beautiful garden, very well maintained. Stay very neat and stylish with a lot of attention to the little things that make stay just better. Exceptional hospitality. Conveniently close to Clarens to drive into without difficulty, but far enough to experience the quiet of the countryside.

"Great place!"

The room is wonderful and the gardens are a sight to see.

"Exceptional food, accommodation and excellent hosts."

Philna en Marius is ongelooflike mense met 'n pragtige gastehuis en plaas. Ons het gevoel soos familie en die aandag aan detail en hulle vriendelikheid het ons beïndruk. Sal vir seker weer gaan kuier.

"Very nice, clean and safe and away from the town but still a 5 minute drive from the center of Clarens."

We really enjoyed the stay and the location was fantastic! Very neat and everything you need under one roof. Will definitely stay there again if we go to Clarens.

"Fantastic stay. Will always use Philna and Marius' hospitality."

Guest house par excellence five star award. Hospitality and service far from outstanding. Would recommend anyone to use Andes.

"Incredibly beautiful."

Andes is a beautiful place, quality is top notch in an incredibly beautiful garden. Really worth it.

"Excellent quality!"

Beautiful and well looked after area - very convenient with exceptionally high quality accommodation. Beautiful view in very peaceful farm surrounds - accommodation can be highly recommended!

"Absolutely fantastic."

Best guest house we have ever visited. The service is top notch.
