62 guests' feedbackWe travel often, and Karoo Moon remains one of our favourites! Excellent quality bed and linen. Attention to every detail to make the visit wonderful. Decor is eclectic and stylish. So many extras that make you feel like you're being spoiled. The log cabin, with plenty of wood, is heavenly on a cold Karoo evening. Thank you for another wonderful visit.
Best in Barrydale and value for money.
It's a beautiful old place, the unit was neat and clean and had everything we needed for a nice winter's evening in Barrydale. The room was already heated when we walked in and gave a homely feeling. The unit has a wonderful fireplace that was also well-heated with wood.
Best place I have ever stayed. You are tops.
Karoo Moon must be one of the most beautiful, original, comfortable, value for money venues to frequent. Attention to detail and guest anticipation make this a must-visit to put on one's bucket list!
We had a great stay at The Karoo Moon Motel. Stayed there for one night on the way back from Willowmore to Worcester. Everything was very comfortable and it was made sure that we would not get cold at all.
The accommodation is clean and very well presented.
The Karoo Moon Motel was amazing. It is a jewel in the Karoo and Barrydale is a beautiful little town with friendly people. The rooms are very tastefully furnished and clean. It is walking distance to everything and very safe. I can highly recommend Karoo Moon Motel.
What an amazing place. Quality bedding. Safe, secure and love the extra treats in room.
A truly excellent place we would highly recommend. Lovely quirky finishes and a 5-star feel.
The facility was very neat and comfortable.
We had a very nice stay. The 2 units can be used separately, but they are connected with an inner door if one wants to use them as one residential unit.
Calm and silence. If a quiet time with a good book and a fire in the evening makes you feel relaxed, this is your place. Close to interesting shops and nice places to eat.
Love this place! Can highly recommend it.
Well-situated in the town and easy to find.
The unit is tastefully, and interestingly equipped with everything needed. It's pretty different and a good experience. Will stay there again.
Pros: Good location, very interesting decor, very well equipped, lovely bed, nice comfortable chairs, lovely shower. Cons: Difficult to open windows for fresh air, lack of good lighting for reading. We will stay there again. Very good value for money.
The facility's decor was painstakingly created to create uniqueness and the linen and towels were of high quality. The service was good.
Unique place, full of interesting antique decor. Spacious and well equipped. Lovely bedding and was spoiled with nice coffee, juice, etc. The right place to go if you want to experience something unique.
Eclectic, spacious, very beautiful, super clean, aircon, wifi and lights during load shedding. Just need a gas stove for coffee if there is no power. Wish we could stay longer. Will definitely stay there again.
Dean and his team were attentive and gracious hosts. The accommodation was authentic farm style modern, unexpected and definitely 10 out of 10. Barrydale is the sweetest town worth exploring and spending holding/travelling time.

Fantasies beautiful, from the decor, to cleanliness, the location, everything is just perfect. Would definitely recommend any vacationer/traveler to stay here. A special experience! Diesel & Creme is on the same premises, delicious menu with good food.
Interesting and unique decor with excellent quality linen, bed and towels. Everything works and is in good, clean condition, with friendly, helpful host in Dean. A comfortable place that we can highly recommend. We really enjoyed our time there and will come again ourselves.
Although there is a braai and a few plates, there are no pots, bowls or washing up facilities. Then the house and cottage is a better option. Still very nice stay.
Great location, setting & ambiance. Friendly and efficient service. Decor, cleanliness and attention to detail was impeccable. Will definitely be back.
What a pleasant place. Quiet atmosphere and safe. Our studio was beautiful. Equipped with everything you need and the decor is absolutely fantastic! Had a great time. The air conditioning was a bonus. Thank you very much, can definitely recommend the Karoo Moon Motel.
This place is very cool yet sophisticated and tranquil. Would love to come back and stay longer.
Will stay there again.
Very peaceful and interesting places to visit.
Thank you, it was one wonderful evening. Very nice warm blanket with cuddly bedding. Everything we needed and more. Thanks Dean for all your trouble with us.
The decor of the motel is out of the books, we feast our eyes on it. Lovely beds and warm sleep. Old coal stove in living area was a bonus.
Good location, almost all attractions are within walking distance. The restaurant is right at the front door!
What a great experience. The Karoo Motel is not at all what you would have expected from a Motel. The decor is eclectic with many interesting focal points. We were two couples and therefore had the whole "Motel" to ourselves because there is a door that connects the "Suite" to the "Studio". The Suite has the sitting room, which has an extra single bed, wooden sofa and comfortable, Art Deco style settee. The kitchen has a fridge/freezer, microwave etc. The Studio has all the same equipment but is just smaller. The beds and bedding are of very good quality. We had a good barbecue on Friday, on a barbecue that was clean with firewood that was freely available. The best, is the owner, Dean's friendly service with the typical hospitality of his staff that is so unique to the Karoo. Thank you very much for an excellent experience.
Clean and tidy place that takes you back to a time long ago. Dean was a great host and suggested us good local restaurants. We booked Studio and I would recommend that for stays longer than 1 or 2 days, the larger units should be booked instead.
Exceeded all expectations. The stars speak for themselves, will definitely stay there again or for longer and also recommend to friends and family.
Wonderful service in a quaint town, full of surprises.
Awesome place to stay over and explore.
This place is very special, decor unique! It has everything you need. It's spacious, spotlessly clean and the location is perfect, there are several places to eat within walking distance. Can recommend it 100%.
The setting is unique and different.
What a beautiful place! So much attention was paid to every detail. Each piece of art, craft, antiques, memorabilia and characterful furniture were put together with love. A real ffeast for the eye! Wonderful hot shower, quality linen for a peaceful night's rest, ice in the freezer, rusks is a jar and biodegradable products in the bathroom. And spotless as well! We will definitely be back!
Karro Moon Motel is one of the best we have ever stayed at. Very creative and full of character. 10 out of 10.
Die verblyf was topklas. Perfekte plekkie, met lekker restaurant letterlik op jou stoep. Lekker geëet en lekker gebly. Sal plekkie aanbeveel vir enige iemand.
We had such a nice stay there. Beautiful, clean accommodation, excellent service. Very safe. We lit a fire and barbecued the two nights we spent there. We just had to take advantage of the silence and tranquility.
Thank you so much for a warm bed and warm room when I came in after a long day!
Pleasant experience!
Cute place for an overnight stay, owners have outdone themselves to make us feel as at home as much as possible. Clean, comfortable rooms, fully equipped. Would definitely recommend.
The vibe, staff, decor, food and setting is fantastic. Dean was a great host, he's knowledge of the area didn't only limit us to Barrydale. We suggest that you book the entire space for yourselves. I will definitely return.
A very special place to stay with amazing people and service.
Here you can relax while you're in the middle of all the activities Barrydale has to offer.
Karoo Moon Motel is comfortable, clean and a total visual feast for the eyes. Lots of lovely extra goodies in the bathroom from shampoo to bodywash, face wash, facial wipes and body lotions. A real treat. It was a wonderful experience.
Good value for money. High quality amenities and accommodation. Would not stay more than one or two nights due to the location of the place against the R62 which does not offer much privacy and security. Otherwise it is a unique place with a lot of character. Would definitely recommend it.
Very clean and neat. Beautiful decor and nostalgic place to stay. Staff very friendly and helpful. Will definitely recommend it to anyone.
Very pleasant accommodation and friendly people. The restaurant is also unique and didn't disappoint.
Karoo Motel, Diesel & Creme is definitely worth a visit. This cottage is very convenient and well-equipped, with a fully stocked honesty bar. The restaurant is also something to experience!
Beautifully furnished, comfortable and right next to the most delicious 'milkshakes'.
Lovely stay. The staff at Diesel and Creme are simply super duper! So friendly. Would'v loved a bigger kitchen zinc as bottles for tots had to be washed, no hot water in kitchen. Also, 2 of the chairs in the lounge really need some serious attention, the springs. But otherwise, we loved the visit.
Had a great stay at The Karoo Moon Motel and especially enjoyed Diesel And Creme. Friendly people and a good recommendation for dinner.
We were very much looking forward to staying at The Karoo Moon Motel and thought it would be the highlight of our 'road trip', but the accommodation that cost us the most also disappointed us the most. I think the experience will be better for a group of people booking the Motel together than if you have to share certain facilities with other tourists. Our en suite hot water didn't work either, someone came out to fix it but not even a few minutes later we were left without hot water again. Encountered some cobwebs too. It's also a shame that Diesel & Creme is closed for dinner, because the other places to eat in the area are not that fantastic. Won't stay here again.
Unbelievable experience! Dean and your team, thanks so much!
What a great surprise. Everything was perfect, in the main road of Barrydale, walking distance to everything. Definitely a gem in Barrydale, so unique and stunning. Will go back.
Karoo Moon Motel was the highlight of our road trip to the Cape. Wonderful place, food and people. Can definitely recommend it.
