33 guests' feedbackFantastic place. Quiet, peaceful and beautiful nature.
Very nice stay in good facilities.
Absolutely stunning, from the extremely friendly and helpful staff to the beautiful location.
From the moment we arrived at the Tides River Lodge it was fantastic. We had a very friendly reception. We traveled by motorbike and were tired. Patience showed us our house and immediately brought wood for our barbecue. The house was very clean, spacious and well equipped. Absolutely everything we needed was there. We will definitely visit again soon.
Clean and well kept. Well positioned with a stunning view.
We were again in the Lodge and it was wonderful again. Come anyway.
Lovely stay in The Boat House. Just next to the river. Was able to relax and go kayaking. Incorrigible.
We were alone at the resort and I think that's what made it even more special. It was so clean and well equipped. I would say only negative is that it should have an all weather outdoor space, just cover the patio with some chromodeck!
The wood available for the indoor fireplace sits outside in the rain so better bring your own. The thatch roof leaked in a few places. On sunny days neither of these items would be a problem.
Comfortable and well-maintained cottages (although Kingfisher cottage really could use a proper stove/oven), friendly staff, and lovely location. Kayaking and bird-watching on the river was a highlight, and there's a generous grassy riverfront area but there's not a lot of area to stroll or wander directly on the grounds. But a very peaceful place in a great area and a good base for exploring.
It's the perfect location, literally on the river bank. Lovely warm water to swim in. Beautiful waterfowl to watch over a cocktail, while the sun's last rays gently color the ridges. The spacious house has a large kitchen and a nice sitting area downstairs. However, we couldn't get enough of the surroundings and so we barbecued outside and hung out on the porch until late with the water babbling in our ears. And enjoyed breakfast on the porch again. The rooms are unfortunately sparsely furnished, insufficient space for hanging clothes and unpacking. Even just a place to put one's bag will help. There is also only one room with a mirror and no hairdryer.
Our chalet was clean, but the living area was worn and the bathroom needed attention. The shower is in the tub and doesn't spray well, and there isn't even a door or shower curtain. It needs attention.
The most beautiful view and well equipped cottages. The driver goes out of his way to make it an unforgettable visit. One forgets about all the droughts and challenges and enjoys a God-given beauty. Will definitely visit again.
We enjoyed it very much. The family rowed on the river, swam and barbecued. The men could ride bicycles. It was a great experience for the whole family. Apartment was well equipped and very tidy.
The ideal getaway in nature, but luxurious facilities at the tip of your fingers. Have been there three times and will definitely come again.
Andre was very helpful and made sure our stay was as pleasant as possible. When he found out we booked a three night stay he moved us to the bigger room next door. Two separate groups of guest stayed in the smaller unit for the long weekend. So in that way we obtained the more spacious unit. The lawn and water gives many options for activities - for young and old.
Ideal accommodation if you just need a place for the night. The road was terrible but luckily we had a high SUV, don't think a vehicle with low ground clearance would be sufficient. The room is relatively well-appointed, unfortunately no basin to wash dishes and no aircon or fan.
Evergreen.
The Boathouse is comfortable and spacious. The staff were friendly and helpful. The river is lovely, there is a variety of bird species and the water is warm and great for swimming.
Was an unforgettable, lovely weekend. The weather played along and the environment is nice and green and there is so much to do. Will return without a doubt. Thank you!
Beautiful location. Entire premises and accommodation very tidy. Staff very nice and helpful. Will definitely stay there again and then for a longer time.
Extremely cold nights and no extra blanket available or offered to us. Lovely view, very quiet and a good place to rest. Neat with all the basics provided.
Spacious and trendy accommodation. Will definitely visit again!
I can really recommend Tides River Lodge. It has everything one needs and more.
Very good accommodation. Quiet and peaceful. Excellent facilities. Dirt road is a bit difficult for normal cars, especially after rain. You will definitely see me again.
Beautiful place with wonderful rest. Good service.
There is a lovely fireplace against the cold! We felt so at home! Would love to live there forever if I could! It has everything inside that one needs!
Tides River Lodge will definitely see me again. It is breathtakingly peaceful and very neat.
Extremely comfortable, beautiful and peaceful, with lovely views. Many walks and hikes in the surroundings, and lots of bird life. We loved it!
A quiet and beautiful environment in a safe environment. It feels like you are on the farm, out of the city's hustle and bustle. Very helpful workers who were always available when you looked for them.
See the stars.

The residential unit "The Boathouse" is attractively designed and thoroughly equipped. The starry sky from the deck at night was amazing!
