Thapelo 10/10

Exceptional

Pros: We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful bush property. The setting is absolutely breathtaking peaceful, private, and surrounded by nature. Waking up to the sounds of the bush and enjoying the sunsets was truly special. The property itself was well maintained, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. It was the perfect place to disconnect from the busy city and just enjoy the tranquility of the bush. Thank you to the host Frederic, Busisiwe, and the lovely receptionist for the excellent communication and hospitality. We can’t wait to come back again!

Cons: None

STAY. will recommend and will come back

Pros: everything was amazing, aircons cooling us in the heat, pool area, stuff lovely people...only issue I had was the fact that they freeze the food : scones were microwaved in the mornings due to the fact that it was frozen.. we had dinner of braai meat and pap - they were not good, meat not well done.

Cons: frozen food, why are you freezing scones and muffins then microwave for us in the morning?
