Small things do matter
Pros: The room was comfortable, clean and modern. The location was good for what we needed.
Cons: Although there was nothing wrong with the communal kitchen it would be nice to have at least a kettle and microwave in the room. It was bucketing with rain and going out in the rain to make coffee after a marathon was definitely not an option.

Pros: Crocodile Sands River Lodge was such a beautiful stay. The setting is incredible — tucked into a valley between mountains, with a real “in the middle of nature” feeling. The units are nicely spaced out with a meadow in between, so you get proper privacy and peace. One of my favorite touches was the open-air shower — showering under the stars is honestly unforgettable. Add the river nearby, the walking trails (great even for a run), and the calm atmosphere, and it’s the perfect place to switch off and just enjoy pure nature and stargazing. Highly recommended for anyone wanting quiet, space, and that special wilderness vibe.

Pros: Such a beautiful place, quiet, peaceful, the sound of the river constantly mesmerising, the art pieces were perfectly put together, it really felt like a dream, the staff was extra helpful, they went beyond their means to make sure we were comfortable. The room was spacious, definitely would come back,
Cons: It was raining season, so it was muddy, my car got dirty, if you going on a rainy season, use a 4 wheel drive car, but there was nothing I didn't like from the place itself

Pros: The overall accommodation was breathtaking. The layout was exactly what I saw.
Cons: Nothing. It would have been nice to have a pool away from the other accomodation.

PERFECT!
Pros: The place was absolutely beautiful and having the river flowing a few metres away from me was priceless. The sounds of nature's birds and insects throughout the day were peaceful and relaxing, such tranquility is exactly what I was looking for. The outdoor kitchen was close to the braai stand. This made food prep and braaing so convenient and perfect. I really enjoyed that. Trust me when I say, I am definitely coming back here and staying for longer than a weekend.
Cons: The curtains were dirty which is a downside for me. Every single one of white curtains had brown stains on them, indication that someone either touched them with dirty hands or there were spills previously on them. One would expect that when they arrive for their booking, that the curtains would also be clean with no stains. The DSTV was not working when I left on the morning of the 1st due to payment issues. I suspect this was due to timing of payment but again, something that you wouldn't expect to happen when on vacation.
