31 guests' feedbackWhat a nice place! We will definitely book here again if we are looking for accommodation in the area.
We had a great stay, thank you.
Our stay was short but comfortable. Thanks.
The place was nice and clean, good quality linen and the kitchen has everything you need. The only bathroom is en-suite, but it is very neat and clean. The place does not have an indoor living area, but it is still very comfortable and convenient under the covered lapa area which is right outside the door. We had a great stay and would recommend the place anytime.
Very clean and tidy. Lovely outdoor sitting area, although we didn't have time to use it.
We attended a festival in Hankey. The accommodation was perfect for the weekend.
We had a lovely stay at Bonsai! The hosts were welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. The place has a lovely braai/entertainment area and is very well equipped and neat.
What an unbelievably nice place! Very clean, comfortable beds, plus nice entertainment area and safe parking.
We had a lovely evening. The place was clean and neat.
Very nice clean and comfortable and easy to stay. We had such a good time.
Safe and secure. Easy access. Friendly.
We didn't stay, we immediately drove again. We were not at all satisfied with the environment.
The bed's mattress was very uncomfortable, the bathroom is not the most comfortable either. Attention should be paid to the little things that can make a traveler's stay more comfortable.
Bonsai is definitely one of the best ever. The host's handiwork is excellent and his wife's eye for detail in the rooms is exceptional. One just wants to sit and chat in the special visit, and braai area. The hosts were like friends when we left.
Pet friendly and most accommodating with excellent facilities and hospitality that one only finds in the off the beaten track locations.
The unit is very comfortable and clean, with everything needed. The owner is hospitable and took care of our needs at all times, such as e.g. a flask of boiling water during load shedding.
Was there overnight and would use Bonsai again when in Hankey again. Place is clean and host very welcoming and friendly.
Beautiful outlook. Stunning braai area. Very comfortable setting.
We stayed one night and all the amenities were 100%. Love the braai area. We had a great time.
The getaway was just what we needed. Due to the restrictions there were still many places closed, but Jeffreys Bay, Humansdorp, St Francis and Port Elizabeth are just around the corner and there is still a lot to see and do. Their service is fantastic and they don't hesitate to help with anything. We spent our few days resting, grilling and enjoying the beautiful nature around us. I would recommend them to anyone.
Pleasantly surprised with a well equipped unit, very safe and the owners are lovely.
Nice fans, choice of 3 beds, DStv, very nice facilities. Hospitable, friendly and helpful.
We arrived late, so should have brought supplies with us as shops/restaurants were closed, but the accommodation had everything we would have needed. Fantastic!
It was fantastic, it creates that farm atmosphere. Very nice, good experience will recommend people to stay there anytime.
Very nice stay. Very neat and good location.
We were extremely comfortable. Very private. Hosts made us feel so welcome. A good spot to stay from which to explore the area.
Bonsai was not our first choice for an overnight stay in the Gamtoos Valley, but were we surprised!? It was by far the best and cleanest and well-maintained guesthouse we have ever stayed at. High quality beds. Nice barbecue and patio and neat well-kept garden. The host and hostess very helpful. The photos on the website do not describe the place as you experience it first hand - so I can really recommend Bonsai to any family.
The unit was very neat and beautifully furnished with everything we could think of to make our stay comfortable. The garden and trees created so much tranquility and the perfect stop if you want to spend the day in the Baviaanskloof, which is a piece of paradise on earth.
We have suggested to the owner to put awnings in her visiting area which can close guests when the wind is blowing.
We loved the place.
We were on a drought relief weekend to raise funds for farmers who are suffering from the drought. We couldn't have asked for a better place to rest.
