6 guests' feedbackSmall, but you spend most of the time in nature so it makes up for that. Kids loved the animals that walk past the stoep in the mornings. Would definitely like to visit again.
Yes, it was okay. The cleaners were late when we arrived on the day and the place was a bit messy. We had to unpack a closet to make room for our clothes.
The sleeper couches were so hard that my children could not sleep on them. My husband had to drive to Warmbad to buy mattresses. There were glasses and cutlery that were dirty. I had to follow up about the DStv which was not on when we arrived and it is extremely dirty behind the bed, cobwebs etc. I lost my earring and had to look behind the bed.
Not our favorite accommodation. Porch was not private. Building in unit next door. Had to pick up patio furniture next door. Boma/outdoor barbecue was damaged by elephants. There were only 2 hotplates and no oven. Toilet leaked and bathroom floor was wet!
Unfortunately we did not have a nice stay. We received the wrong information from the agent who said it was a 2 bedroom unit. The photos she sent did not match the place we stayed. We were 2 pensioners who slept on sleeper coaches. Everything was perfect for 4 people.
The place was much smaller than I expected, and therefore poor value for money. This was a lot to pay for what is just a one bedroom apartment. Some decent furniture would go a long way too. A filthy wooden table on the patio, and 2 broken camp chairs were the only options. I really expected more for the price that I paid, I wouldn't have minded if it was cheaper, I just think it was poor value for money. I couldn't open the main doors in the room, and it was extremely hot, no aircon.
