54 guests' feedbackVery good stay; would highly recommend.
Had a great stay and will come again. Nice surroundings, nice guest house. Room is upstairs and bathroom downstairs but we knew that. Beautiful unit.
Really nice facilities.
Great stay and visit.
Modern well appointed units with beautiful outdoor facilities for young and old. Hospitable staff make you feel very much at home and are truly a great sleep.
Beautiful guest house with everything you need! Wish I could stay longer!
Thank you very much, it was great, everything works 100% and that counts for a lot!
My time at Karoo Retreat Guest House was very pleasant. We enjoyed the silence and tranquility. Your place is very neat and clean. The bedding was lovely with the warm bedding and hot water. I will definitely want to stay with you again. I give you 10 out of 10.
We will definitely stay there again, it's so beautiful, it's peaceful and it's clean. The service is great and the people are amazing. Thank you for your hospitality.
Nice, neat and modern.
It was a comfortable stay. Everything you need in a B&B. Breakfast was lovely! Staff were very friendly. The 2 springboks roaming around were a pleasant surprise.
Yes, the place was very clean and tidy, and the staff were helpful.
I had a fantastic time with you guys. The service we received was excellent. I would recommend you guys anytime. Our hostess was an angel. Where I forgot my phone charger, she let me know and I was able to turn back in time to get it.
Awesome place and very friendly and professional staff.
It was very relaxing.
We had a wonderful stay and ate very well. Thank you very much! You will definitely see us again!
Very nice and peaceful.
Friendly Lettie received us. Our room was spacious, neat and clean. Breakfast and coffee were delicious! Will definitely stay here again if we travel through Oudtshoorn.
Lovely stay, very peaceful and Lettie was very hospitable and helpful. Excellent service. Would definitely recommend Karoo retreat.
Clean, tidy and safe. Springboks were there walking around was a bonus.
Very nice stay. Very hospitable.
It was really very nice to spend the night here. Everything is neat and clean and service is excellent and staff very nice. Received 5-star service.
Lovely, clean and tidy accommodation. We as a family had a nice stay. Beautiful pool to enjoy.
Peaceful surroundings and beautiful garden.
Our stay was amazing even if it was only for 1 night. The hostess was the friendliest and super helpful, would definitely recommend and book there again.
Very friendly welcome, neat and clean, will definitely stay there again.
Beautiful accommodation and friendly service. We were warned in advance that the walls are not soundproof between the units and we experienced this first hand when our neighbors got up at 4:00am the next morning (and their alarm went off every 5 minutes from 5:00-5:30am). But despite this, we had a very nice stay - we enjoyed cooling off in the pool and breakfast was delicious.
Absolutely amazing. Everything was perfect from the time we arrived until we left, we were blown away by the place and this little gem in the heart of the Karoo.
We had a great stay, hospitality and helpfulness top notch. Safe and calm atmosphere.
Our family really enjoyed the hospitality and facilities of Karoo Retreat.
Central and the swimming pool cool off nicely in the hot sun. Friendly workers and helpful.
Nice stay in a quiet neighborhood in Oudtshoorn. Fairly close to restaurants and reception was good. Units are neat, clean and well equipped for short and longer stays. Quality of internet was good.
We stayed 2 nights and were very warmly received by friendly staff. We had a great barbecue and hung out at the barbecue area before the reception. The spring goats running around freely were of course also a big highlight.
The place is beautiful and peaceful. Service is excellent, and staff is friendly and very accommodating. They even catered for our little one regarding sleeping arrangements.
Very nice with the best hostess.
It's a neat apartment and has everything I needed. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The spring goats walking around there were a pleasant surprise!
It was a comfortable place to stay. They saw a cottage that was very considerate. It is really a very beautiful place. Breakfast was delicious. The villas are for 4 persons, but definitely not 4 adults. Rather 2 adults and 2 children. There were no towels available for the additional persons. The villa appears as if it is set up for 2. The communal Jacuzzi and laundry services are only available at additional costs which are not made clear on the advertisement. We asked that no cleaning be done during our stay. We went out for the day and upon returning we could see that the request had been declined and that someone was indeed inside our villa.
We had a nice stay in the modern guest house with a nice big swimming pool. Friendly service.
The accommodation was clean and tidy.
I would like to share my unhappiness with Karoo Retreat Gastehuis. I booked one of their Comfort family units for two adults, but when we arrived, we were given one of their luxury villas. The stay in the villas was very noisy because it is connected to three other units, and you could hear every conversation of the people that stayed next to us. One couple had small children, and that was even worse. We booked for self-catering, but there was no cutlery or utensils other than two teaspoons, cups, and glasses. We could not make any porridge or warm up food.
The place is beautiful and peaceful. Staff is friendly. Would prefer that staff do not pass directly in front of the villa. It disturbs the peaceful atmosphere and invades your privacy.
We were warmly welcomed by the ladies at reception. The information and check-in process was easy. The room was spacious and had everything we could need. The bathroom had enough storage space. There was plenty of hot water. The rooms are tasteful and luxurious! Attention is given to decor, accommodation, the garden and pool area! A friendly cat made the stay extra special. The bedding was clean and cozy.
It was really nice and a great break.
Lovely neat and clean guest house. Beautiful gardens and pool. Children had a great time swimming and playing cricket on the grass. Lettie the hostess was very nice and made us feel very welcome.
Very friendly and helpful service. Neat and comfortable and the staff make a lot of effort. Will definitely book here again.
Very nice, quiet and peaceful for small families.
The hospitality and charm of the accommodation made my stay truly unforgettable.
Absolutely lovely units and beautiful clean pool.
Very nice, clean and tidy. Breakfast very nice.
The facilities are beautiful, with a lovely swimming pool. Although the unit is presented cleanly in white, it is impractical with the bathroom on the lower floor and the bedroom on the loft. The white floor and white stairs did not create enough contrast and created an unsafe feeling. The room also did not cool down at night because there was no good air flow and with load shedding the air conditioning did not work. It was also disturbing that the room was not dark enough with windows that were too high for curtains.
