63 guests' feedbackGreat! I will recommend, and the host was awesome.
Definitely. Will go again to Dragonfly self catering and bike rescue.
Excellent, all very easy and accommodating.
What a fabulous venue. Everything was there, clean and, where relevant, super soft. Friendly hosts always ready to give a tip on where to go. We'll be back!
Can recommend anytime, go to Clarens regularly and will definitely book Dragonfly again.
So glad I booked the place, definitely going back again in the summer months. Vernon and Pam received us so well, thanks.
Very nice stay at Dragonfly.
It was neat and clean. It is centrally located and I could walk everywhere in town. I didn't need my car.
Thank you so much for having us. We had a lovely stay. You are such kind people. All the best.
Lovely little flatlet within walking distance of the shops and restaurants. The host was so friendly and helpful and made us feel very welcome.
We were feeling at home! The place is nice and clean! Quiet, private, close to the restaurant and the shops! We were safe, and we had all the comfort! We arrived in the afternoon and the cottage was nice and warm!
Wonderful hosts and a great location.
Vernon and Pam are incredibly hospitable. I was never without electricity even during load shedding. The unit is super neat and very well furnished. It is safe and cuddly even in the cold Clarens. When I left, my car was sprayed after a week in Clarens! Vernon also called to see if I had arrived home safely. I can really recommend Dragonfly and will definitely stay there again.
Perfect location! Tranquil surroundings and walking distance to the centre of the picturesque village of Clarens.
We really enjoyed the stay. The Host Vernon was very welcoming and accommodating to the point of offering us his cleaning products and use of his facilities to wash our motorcycles. The accommodation was clean, secure and very homely! The big stoep area with a fireplace is an awesome touch of space to chill and watch the sunrise. Overall a great place and my future first pic when visiting Clarens. With friends or family, i would highly recommend this establishment. The only recommendation I can make is to fit a second safe (lockable by key only as with the current), in the second bedroom as this allows for more secure storage and allows each room personal storage space. Overall 5/5!
Very accommodating. Friendly and most importantly load-shedding equipped as well as borehole water which was a plus as some of the town experience water shortages.
Very friendly welcome, everything we needed was there.
We will definitely recommend Dragonfly to our family and friends. Will most definitely book accommodation there again.
We really enjoyed our time at Dragonfly. The place and the view are beautiful. The owners Vernon and Pam were very hospitable, friendly and helpful. We will definitely stay there again.
This is a unique guesthouse. The security is top notch and Vernon told us so much about all the places and things. He is a true host. We come to Clarens a lot, but this was a particularly neat, beautiful place. I will come again. You deserve 5 stars.
Vernon and Pam have a beautiful place. Comfortable and peaceful. Vernon and Pam are friendly and hospitable and make sure everything is perfect. Walking distance from the town square and has a beautiful view. Thanks for a peaceful getaway!
The accommodation fulfilled everything and the host was very pleasant and helpful. Clarens is a very pleasant and interesting town. Golden Gate is a must see.
I would like to thank the owner for the amazing hospitality. The view from the property is absolutely stunning. We would recommend Dragon Fly as one of the best self catering accommodations in Clarens.
Dragonfly is nicely located, extremely comfortable and well-appointed with everything you need for a getaway. We could only stay 3 nights and will definitely be back. Vernon was very pleasant and helpful and a pleasure to deal with. 10 stars!
Vernon is an excellent host - he was concerned that we were warm enough, and that our stay was comfortable. The unit is equipped with everything one needs, and is spotless and tidy. He even provided us with firewood. Beautiful view of the mountains. We stayed wonderfully warm and had a great time. Will definitely stay there again.
We had a very pleasant stay and the owner was friendly and helpful in all respects.
Both my husband and I travel a lot for various reasons, and we have never met anyone like Vernon - he was so incredibly hospitable and helpful. We arrived very late and after we called to inform him he even turned on the heater for us so that our stay was nice and warm. We will definitely stay there again if we have to go back to Clarens.
Guesthouse owners who become family. Everything one needs. Lovely location and view of Horebberg.
Very friendly welcome. Everything nice and tidy and comfortable. Thank you very much.
Vernon always made sure we had everything we needed. There was even braai wood available. When load shedding struck, he immediately turned on emergency power.
Nice, clean accommodation. Vernon went out of his way to assist us when our vehicle broke down. He even lent us his own van for the evening! Thank you very much. I would only suggest that, if possible, the WiFi signal is strengthened, had trouble with the connection.
The owners are incredibly hospitable, the apartment is spacious, clean and very tidy. Will definitely visit again and would recommend Dragonfly anytime. The view of the mountains is breathtaking.
This accommodation is perfect, a wonderful host! He called to make sure I was home safe!
Pleasant experience!
Will stay here again and recommend it.
A place where you can literally and figuratively breathe. Your heart, soul and body become one again.
A warm welcome by the owners Vernon and Pam. The flat is lovely and cosy furnished with everything you need, not to mention the breathtaking view. Walking distance to the shops and easy accessible. Will definitely recommend!
Will go back for sure. Clean, hospitable and beautiful view.
The ground road to this guesthouse is very bad, especially when it has been raining, but the self-catering accommodation is good. Plunger coffee instead of instant would have been nice.
Vernon and his wife Pam went out of their way. My husband drove his motorcycle and I drove my car. My husband struggled a bit with the bit of road to Dragonfly's entrance and Vernon helped him park his motorbike.
Friendly, good location and vehicles are safe.
Very friendly people.
Host was very informative and helpful. Will definitely be back.
The room was spacious and clean. House is very central - close to all restaurants, shops, galleries and pubs. Our hosts, Vernon and Pam, were very friendly and happy to help with advice on what to do and where to go. Views from the balcony on top are stunning. We look forward to another visit.
We were surprised to see how big and modern the place is. We will definitely book again. Large living area and patio, beautiful view of the town and mountains. Close to all events.
Not a complaint, just a recommendation. Porch can be extended a little and have a roof over with a small braai for rainy days. Otherwise perfect place and can recommend it.
We really enjoyed it and had a great time together. The apartment has the most beautiful view and when you walk in you feel very much at home. Wonderful people and did everything to help and make sure we felt at home. The owner contacted us until later to make sure we arrived home safely. The Dragonfly is highly recommended.
Had a great stay. Will definitely stay there again.
Vernon and Pam are wonderful people and very welcoming. We just started a nice conversation as soon as we stepped in. The accommodation is very clean and tidy, in a quiet area of Clarens although it is not at all far from the town square. My wife and I just walked where we wanted to be and enjoyed the outdoors. I would recommend Dragonfly anytime. For any future stays in Clarens I would contact Dragonfly first.
Everyone in the family was satisfied with what we got.
See stars.
We had a very nice stay, would definitely recommend to others.
Friendly, accommodating, clean, amazing. We had such an amazing time. Vernon and Pam are fantastic. You are in for a treat if you decide to use this as a base to stay for your holiday or getaway.
Spacious bedrooms with well equipped kitchen. Beautiful braai porch with views of the mountains. Vernon and Pam are wonderful hosts. Very neat and we will stay here again on our next visit.
Perfect location, neat and beautifully furnished cottage, fully equipped. A wonderful stay. Vernon and Pam, the owners welcomed us very warmly and his help, concern and hospitality was amazing! I will definitely recommend Dragonfly to friends and family. 10/10.
We had a wonderful weekend at Dragonfly. Vernon was very helpful and made all facilities freely available to us. The view is beautiful and we will definitely stay there again!
Just one description, wow. Thank you to Vernon and Pam for your pleasant and friendly service. The unexpected extras in the apartment were much appreciated. We really enjoyed the short time and Clarens remains our favorite place. View was indescribably beautiful. We will visit again. Thank you for the extra effort with the children.
Vernon was very hospitable and helpful. The place is well equipped and tidy.
Excellent facilities and service. Very well located, walking distance from the town centre.
Would definitely recommend Dragonfly to someone looking for a clean, cute place, very peaceful surroundings. Owners very friendly and helpful. Had a great stay there.
It's an amazing place that caters for small groups or large groups. Beautiful views and amazing hosts.
You always take a chance to book a place through the internet, but when we walked into Dragonfly we were 100% satisfied and happy. Everything was extremely clean and tidy and also very beautiful and stylish. With the beautiful view and friendly reception, this is definitely a place we will return to.
Dit is 'n veilige, skoon en bekostigbare verblyf. Uitstekend toegerus met wat jy ook al nodig mag kry. Beslis 'n plek om aan te beveel en weer te besoek. Pragtige uitsig! Wonderlike mense!
