32 guests' feedbackIt was great to stay on the dam. We caught fish ranging from 6kg to 10.8kg just off the deck, which was a bonus. The only thing I would say is an aircon would have been great as the heat wave was intense. The owners were really pleasant and the place has everything you need.
Very nice stay, well rested in a peaceful atmosphere. Enjoyed the silence and slept well.
Beautiful place, great service. Everything is nice and neat.
Lovely and unique place to stay. Close to markets, restaurants and local attractions. Gorgeous views in the mornings and evenings.
See stars.
It was an amazing stay, it was even more beautiful in real life. The beds are so comfortable, and the hosts are amazing.
Excellent location close to the city.
We had a very nice stay. Cute place, neat, clean and safe! And has everything you need available. Would definitely recommend!
The views were spectacular, 10 out of 10 would recommend.
Yes, it is a beautiful place and quiet, which was most important for us.
I had an absolutely fantastic experience at the Real Boathouse! Without a doubt, I'll be returning. The view was breathtaking, and the ability to catch a fish right off our patio added an extra thrill to our stay.
Stay was pleasant and will be back in the summer.
Indeed. The purpose of the visit was primarily to rest. This was more than adequately realized and the hospitality and quality of the facility made it an event to remember.
It was such a nice surprise to open that door and walk in with an incredible view. Mountains meeting water. Decor was beautiful. All amenities available. Will definitely go again.
It is the perfect place to recharge and get ready for the busy life. Unbelievably beautiful view and you can just sit outside and relax for hours. We just also started a new hobby with fishing and will make another reservation as soon as possible.
Als was great! Very nice place! Would definitely recommend the place!
The place is beautiful, spacious and so peaceful. Attention was paid to the finer details, for example dishwashing liquid, cloths, towels, tea, coffee, etc. I would highly recommend it for a little getaway. I will be back. Absolutely wonderful weekend destination.
We enjoyed it very much.
We had a lovely time.
Value for money. Tidy. Nature around you. Restful. Safe.
Very helpful and friendly and good service. Very close to different activities and restaurants. The view is breathtaking and delightfully beautiful.
Very comfortable accommodation with an amazing view of the dam.
We had a wonderful weekend. Larry and Daniela made sure we were well informed and even provided us with the load shedding schedule upon our arrival. The brochure also helped a lot. It's a beautiful house and had everything we needed. The location is ideal if you are looking for peace and quiet. The "French press" coffee is a bonus and the shower is "amazing". I definitely recommend "The Real Boathouse" to anyone looking for rest, peace and simplicity without giving up everyday luxuries.
It is a lovely place to relax. The host and hostess are fantastic and very helpful. Their service is great. We would definitely recommend the place to anyone.
The place is peaceful, a space of serenity and tranquility. The Wi-Fi connection was an issue, it didn't connect the way through our stay.
Was an awesome stay, loved it.
The house is modern and well appointed with the porch sitting right on the pond. Lovely and peaceful, nice to walk in the area. We had a great time and relaxed.
Nice place, but parking slight problem.
From the outside it looks like a garage, the door can't even close properly, will never stay there again.
The place is breathtaking: from the views and the furniture to the cleanliness. Loved the fact that you have the house to yourself with your private pool. The only improvement can be done on the road within the complex because it doesn't look maintained at all.
Our stay was breathtaking. We enjoyed the markets. Would go there again anytime.
Sunlounger or two would be a big plus.
