58 guests' feedbackWe had a nice stay.
We were moved to Ikaiha Africa. So did not stay in Out of Africa. Would definitely stay there again, you can tell the owner has put a lot of effort into making it comfortable.
Facility met our expectation.
Very nice stay. We got the most delicious biscuits with our breakfast coffee.
We were relocated to another larger unit due to logistical reasons. We had a wonderful stay though.
Had an awesome time at OOA.
I forgot items with them which they were happy to courier for me. Thank you very much. You met all our needs.
Everything was perfect. Everything we needed was there. The room was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The people were friendly and welcoming upon our arrival and made us feel very welcome.
The host is excellent and helpful. The place has some wear and tear but is suitable for a night’s stay; just don’t expect too much.
The stay was good, and there were braai facilities available. The host was friendly and helpful.
It was delicious. We really enjoyed it. Thank you very much. All that was a challenge for us was the small fridge in our room did not work. Because of that we unfortunately had to throw food away. Other than that, I will check in there again. It's a small thing that can be easily fixed. It's really value for money. The people were very friendly and will see us again. Thank you very much.
Everything was clean, tidy and ready. They made a lot of effort to contact us when we had no internet reception and Carnavon's Vodacom was out of order.
Very yes. Friendly people and good service.
After a long day's driving, the air conditioning, comfortable beds and coffee were bliss for the soul. Everything you need is in the unit and the biscuits for the morning are delicious. The unit, bedding and fridge are clean and fresh.
Looking for a clean, spacious and peaceful place, then this is the place for you.
No problem encountered except for the normal loadshedding.
Neat facilities with everything you need. The double bed mattress was just a bit outdated and may need to be replaced.
Comfortable and neat.
The rooms were adequately furnished with everything we needed. However, cleanliness needs attention. Aircon and warm blanket was a plus.
Good value for money for an overnight on the way back from the Cape.
Terrible! Units let to contractors talking loudly till 3. 30am! Would not recommend to anyone. Brenda was excellent in welcoming us. No hot water the next morning thermostat broken. Brenda very apologetic.
Dog on property when we arrived. It was behind the fence. Whether it was theirs or not, it was in an extremely emaciated condition. To see a young dog on the property like that was very distressing. I know the owners have other properties in the town and are busy with them, but surely the person looking after the rooms could not fail to see the condition it was in.
The locking gate where the car sleeps behind was a bit old and had a small lock. The water pipe burst. I struggled for 40 minutes to reach the lady at the guest house. By then the whole place was already wet and full of water. I have to admit she quickly arranged for another guest house where we could stay. However, she was friendly and hospitable.
The room was very cluttered with unnecessary decor, so made a small room even more cramped. Pillows were very uncomfortable, linen looked very tired - we used our own bedding. Actual bed was comfortable. There was a bucket, mop, broom and cleaning stuff in the corner of our room - found that a bit strange. Someones elses jacket hanging in the cupboard - so not sure how well the room had been serviced. Had wifi password - but couldn't link to wifi.
Lovely, big space, safe and wonderfully quiet.
Very nice stay, friendly service. Extra effort was made to provide us with dinner as we arrived on Christmas Day.
Especially friendly!
Hosts saw to our requests for water, ice, shampoo within less than 30 mins. Comfortable, felt safe, secure parking for 6 motorcycles, good value for money.
Neat, good value for money and very good service.
Could sit on the porch and visit. Near a nice restaurant.
It was clean and tidy. Everything you need for an overnight stay. We had a nice stay.
The place was clean and beautifully decorated. The owner gave us 110% service. Most restaurants close early and we arrived very late. The owner arranged food to be delivered to our door. We definitely enjoyed our stay.
We enjoyed a delicious breakfast. Of top quality.
Our hostess really went out of her way to accommodate our needs for a bath. Thank you very much. We appreciate it. There were emergency lights and a gas stove during loadshedding. Thank you very much.
The unit is comfortable for overnight stays and provides good value for money. The hostess gives excellent service and is very friendly and welcoming.
For overnight it was good with no problem. Bedding was good and clean, and the room and shower were great.
Was a lovely stay, but we arrived around 18:00 without knowing that all the restaurants would be closed. We were limited to purchasing food from superette to make food.
The stay of the 26th in unit no. 1 was far better. We prefer farm stays just outside these small towns. We are now planning our October 2024 trip to the Western Cape and want to return via Calvinia, Williston, Carnarvon, Colesberg, and Bloemfontein. If you have farm stays on a self-catering basis outside these towns, please let me know via email. A perfect example of what we are looking for is Prior Grange in Springfontein. We have seen the following farms advertised en route home: Rooiberg Gasteplaas near Williston and Sandrivier Guest farm near Carnarvon. Both on the internet look great.
The process of checking in and out, staying in the place and getting around was nice and easy. Great value for money.
Once there spend the night. Towns around Carnarvon seem better looked after and more welcoming.
The young lady was very helpful.
A barbecue place on your front porch. The area looked dodgy to us, but there had been no problems throughout the night. It is safe.
The hostess went out of her way to let us check in late at night. The room was incredibly clean, we will definitely stay there again!
Very nice sleepover on the way from Pretoria to Paternoster. Friendly and hospitable.
Thank you very much, we had a good barbecue and slept well.
We got more than what we expected. Wonderful host and awesome place.
It is a very nice place. Will sleep there again.
It has all one needs. Perhaps a bit cramped for a family, but will work well if it is just a sleep over.
Very friendly reception. Clean and fully equipped. Can be recommended to anyone looking for overnight accommodation.
Very neat and value for money. Will definitely stay there again. Owner provides porridge for breakfast and milk, coffee and tea. You don't just get that for the price.
Booked and paid for two nights, only stayed one. Judge for yourself if the following are in the documents in the unit. "Please do not use two electrical appliances. The electricity will trip" (Installation is a danger.) "Should you be disturbed after the set time, please contact the local police."
Really enjoyed the stay. Will use them again. Thanks for your hospitality, Marie.
See stars.
There was everything we needed. Excellent quality barbecue. We will stay there again in the future. We are grateful for the value for money.
The room was very nice and comfortable and nicely if a bit overdone decor. There is TV, fridge, outdoor braai and everything needed for a nice comfortable stay.
It was very nice.
