235 guests' feedbackLovely spacious unit, very tidy. Owners are very helpful.
Spacious, comfortable and well equipped. It's just a place to sleep, can e.g. not sitting on the porch and relaxing. Feels a bit on the lower town side. It is in a historic town but we were advised not to walk around in the evening. Unfortunately, security seems to be a problem in the town.
Overnight on the way back home after 'road trip' through the Eastern Cape. One room did not have hot water, but it was fixed the next day. Location is good for sightseeing and parking is sufficient and safe.
We had a nice stay, the rooms are very spacious.
The host was very friendly and helpful, and the self-catering house pleasant and well-equipped. The whole street of brightly painted houses was very eye-catching, and the neighbourhood was quiet and pleasant.
Best self-catering accommodation in Graaf-Reinette. Conveniently close to everything you may need and the friendly staff in town.
Great friendly service for check-in and check-out, will definitely stay here again and refer people.
Very nice overnight stop, on the way back to Gauteng.
What a lovely place in Graaff-Reinet. The pool was a very special plus and refreshment because we arrived on a very hot day. The unit is very spacious and tidy. The prior communication was excellent and we were received very kindly. Safe environment with secure parking. Would truly recommend here with no hesitation. Thank you.
Great for an overnight stopover. Rooms were clean and parking was secure. The pool was awesome to cool down after a hot drive. Staff were all very friendly.
Centrally located in Graaf Reinet. Comfortable.
Although we only stayed 1 night, we had a very nice stay. Clean and tidy. Was pleasantly surprised by everything at our disposal - WiFi, TV, etc. Thank you very much!
Very safe and comfortable for 1-2 nights.
Lovingly decorated lodge with lots of charm. The pool was a welcome surprise after a long hot day.
Quite pleasant and enjoyable!
Comfortable and clean.
It was awfully nice.
The room was comfortable, the pool is the ideal place after a long drive. Secure parking. For overnight it is perfect.
We had a great time staying at Obesa Lodge. The air conditioning in the rooms and the pool provided welcome relief from the Karoo heat. The rooms look like the photos and everything was spotless and tidy, with good bed linen. The secure parking and quiet surroundings make it a good stopover after a long day of travel.
Check-in was easy and efficient. Safe, secure parking. Rooms were clean and comfortable, and we chilled at the pool before going out. Nice local recommendations given for local restaurants.
I would recommend Obesa Lodge for an overnight and also a few days sleep over. Very peaceful and private. Close to restaurants and shops.
Thank you for the good service.
Lovely premises, very welcoming host and loved the cats.
Can highly recommend Obesa Lodge. Within walking distance of all attractions.
A neat place to stay, very well located, surrounded by exceptional succulent plant species.
Clean and tidy with everything you need for a short stay.
This is the third time I have booked at Obesa Lodge. I will always go back again. Sonja is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are safe and so is the parking place for vehicles. Can definitely recommend them.
Friendly, professional reception, the site is colorful, the room is very neat and clean, has everything overnight travelers can ask for.
The unit was clean, tidy and comfortable.
We were kindly received. Unit is clean and tidy. Lovely large shower in bathroom. Everything we needed for our overnight stay. We would definitely recommend it and stay there again.
Very friendly reception and very helpful. Our cottage was very cute and clean. There were bottles of water, tea, coffee and milk set out for us.
Shower plate with holes was loose and water came out in one stream like with a garden hose. Just had to wash.
Very good overnight stop. Friendly service. Secure parking. Neat accommodation.
Love the garden and the pool on a 39 degree day.
Easy booking and payment. Friendly service. Safe and secure parking.
The air conditioner was definitely a plus and so was the pool to cool off after a hot day. The bathrooms are large and comfortable and equipment in the kitchen more than adequate. Full DStv was also a plus. Would suggest upgrading the WiFi though as the signal was very weak.
Sonja was amazing and had her hand on everything. I will definitely visit there more! Where do I start because everything was just 'nice'! As soon as we stepped in, we felt at home. Thank you very much for all the extra effort you made to make the 'loadshedding' so much easier. Oh my goodness, just make sure you take lots of pictures because there are so many interesting things everywhere in the garden. It is really very beautiful.
Obesa was tidy with everything we needed.
Animal-friendly is a plus.
Obesa Lodge was our overnight stop on the way to the coast. Service was good, rooms clean and tidy, and we had a nice stay.
Thanks for everything, they were nice and comfortable beds!
Lovely stop in Graaff-Reinet.
Reception was good. The room was clean and comfortable. It's close to everything one would need. Air conditioning in room welcome for the hot summer.
Well located and comfortable.
A color explosion. These are absolutely beautiful, colorful units. I was crazy about the beautiful colors that the houses were painted outside and inside. Definitely the most colorful street in town. Friendly, warm welcome. It was a highlight of my vacation.
Obesa Lodge is always our first choice of overnight accommodation in Graaff-Reinet. We have never been disappointed and always try to book first at Obesa Lodge.
The room is very nice and beautiful garden outside.
Friendly reception, neat rooms, secure parking and central.
After a long drive we slept wonderfully, cuddly and warm.
Good value for money. Management is doing what they can. Shower curtains can even be doors. Wall plugs are too few. TV could be slightly bigger. WiFi comes and goes but was usable.
When you get more than you think you paid for, it brings great satisfaction.
Everything is in place and tidy.
Accommodation is comfortable, clean and swimming pool is a must in summer. Yard is neat and well maintained.
Nicely furnished, clean, safe and close to places to eat. Warm and informative welcome.
The unit we stayed in was clean and tidy. The beds were comfortable and there was a private braai.
Close to the Garden Route and also as a stopover on the way to the Cape.
Thank you very much for the friendly service. Everything was clean and tidy and actually exceeded our expectations. Will definitely stay there again. Easy access and everything needed.
My family and I slept here overnight, and I wish we had stayed here longer. Place is pretty colorful, owner is friendly. Really a cute place!
All safe and clean. Recommendation to improve front door security gate lock from inside. Sheets?
Sonja immediately made us feel welcome. She is a good hostess and we had a lovely room. But the neighbor next to the lodge already started a party in the early afternoon with loud music, and he continued through the night until 04:00 in the morning. Apparently it wasn't the first time it happened either. Furthermore, if like me you have a severe allergy to cats, I would rather recommend other accommodation. There are quite a few cats at the lodge.
The unit was clean and well appointed. Very friendly reception.
Enjoyed big room.
Premises are clean and tidy. Secure parking. Staff were all very helpful and friendly.
Visit to the Valley of Desolation exceptional.
We had to move the booking several times because of the rugby tournament which was postponed due to Covid. The service and help was great. Beautiful place fantastic for children of all ages. They deserve more than 5 stars.
Obesa Lodge surprised us a lot. It was much more than just a place to stay the night. We had a whole house to ourselves with all the kitchen facilities, lounge chairs and dining room table. The neighborhood is so beautiful with the established succulent garden. We would have liked to visit it and needed more time. The places to eat are within walking distance but the cottage was so comfortable we just stayed there. There is also a cozy garden where you can barbecue. We will definitely stay at Obesa Lodge again. The customer service had also been very professional.
A map booklet/leaflet with all the tourist information was available but there was no time.
Pleasant reception and a nice and clean unit. Secure parking is a plus. Nice braai facilities and wood were provided complimentary. Can highly recommend Obesa.
Off-street parking is easily accessible and there is lots of space.
Lovely place, quite and tranquil. Loved the cactus garden across the road. Staff were great.
The room was big, bathroom had a door (this is important to me but not always so), the kitchenette had everything we needed. We really liked the area where we could sit outside under the trees and liked the security and that there was enough room for cars inside.
Obesa is affordable and neat. Well located.
Only fault, a bigger fridge. Maybe and the plugs that were off more than once. Just take care of it, otherwise no errors. I love it.
Highly recommended. The owner is very friendly & helpful and the room we stayed in was comfortable, spotlessly clean and had everything you'd need for a self-catering stay (even a coffee press which is an uncommon and much appreciated touch).
So friendly, beautiful, comfortable, neat! We are madly in love with Graaff-Reinet and the lodge has so much to do with it. Lovely, lovely, lovely! And we are already dreaming of going back again.
Clean, tidy, comfortable and very centrally located. Very friendly people. Would love to stay there again.
See stars.
Clean, tidy rooms and a nice pool for children.
We were kindly received and upgraded to a larger unit. Everything was painfully neat and clean. Very convenient to be able to hit the road again at 05:00 the next morning without having to struggle with keys. The water was very brackish, but absolutely understandable due to the drought. We will definitely use Obesa again.
Air conditioners worked well, safe, clean and very tidy. Quiet area.
Obesa is so colorful and cheerful. Everything you need is in the unit. Beds sleep very comfortably. Pool is beautifully clean. We will stay with you again, thank you very much!
We had a very good reception. The staff is very friendly and happy to help. We will definitely stay there again when we visit Graaff-Reinet.
Very nice, just overslept but enjoyed it.
The rooms are nicely done, swimming pool, silence and space. Secure parking.
Clean and car parking was safe.
The only problem we encountered was that there was no sink to wash the dishes. We had to rinse it off in the bathroom sink.
Great for overnight stay.
The unit was spacious and spotless, we had a great swim and cooled off in the pool, reception and service were very friendly and professional.
Air cooling in the living room also needed.
Very neat and clean. Appreciation for water saving tips / requests. Do it with love. Will use and recommend their accommodation again.
Graaff-Reinet is a pretty town that is suffering from the drought, but still a good place to visit. The golf course is beautiful and green! The Valley of Desolation is breathtaking and Obesa was just the right place to relax. Will want to visit again. Sonia is a wonderful hostess.
Very nice stay. Reception was friendly and helpful. Accommodation was excellent, clean and tidy. Pool was a winner on a very hot day.
Very neat. Everything important (air conditioner for me), pillows straight from heaven, privacy and luxury bedding! Would stay here again anytime.
Would stay there again anytime.
We stayed in the Jade unit, grass green walls, the mattress is softer than a washed out sponge, so you actually sleep on the base of the bed with a cover.
The pool was a bonus in the hot Karoo heat! Clean and tidy, we were received kindly, everything was as stated on the website. Would recommend anytime.
Breakfast was a little expensive.
Friendly, hospitable reception and cleanliness are first class.
This colourful guest house with all its selfie spots was a huge high light to the children's holiday, the pool was refreshing and the small but private braai area was nice, they will see us again.
As before, we were received friendly and hospitable. And once again a comfortable and very nice stay. The facilities are more than you need and very pleasant. Friendly staff.
We had a wonderful stay and received great hospitality. We will definitely stay at Obesa Lodge again!
Was pleasantly surprised with beautiful rooms, cleanliness and safe feeling.
Obesa's reception was very helpful with information about the area and we were received very friendly and hospitable at all times. Johnnieboy has crept deep into our hearts. Our stay was very, very nice!
Obesa Lodge will always be welcome. I'm from Graaff-Reinet originally, but was not aware of the beauty of Obesa Lodge. And the succulent and cacti garden right opposite. Just gorgeous.
Obesa gave us value for money. Our place of stay was very neat and clean. We also felt safe and enjoyed the little garden with its selfie layouts.
Nice room, well-equipped and not far from the main street in the town. My room was one of a row of about 5, all of which had colourful bougainvillea over the doorways. That was probably the reason that the room was infested by mosquitoes. In the first few minutes of being in the room I could see 6 in the lounge area and 5 in the bathroom - and that was at 3 in the afternoon. The first thing I did was to head out to the supermarket a block away to get some bug spray. Once I'd done that and fumigated the room, everything was fine.
From the booking, the reception on our arrival at Obesa to our departure the service was first class. Rooms are comfortable and the air conditioning was a relief during a sweltering hot day in Graaff-Reinet. We will definitely spend the night there again on our way to Cape Town.
Clean and neat. Service was good.
Amazingly colorful sleepover delights.
We were kindly received and assigned a room and parking space. At our request we were helped to turn on the TV and find our station.
Obesa offers a home away from home, spacious for singles, couples or the whole family.
Well located in Graaf-Reinet, rest despite the crazy holiday season, neat and beautifully clean. Thank you very, very much.
The room was clean and the facilities like the air con worked when it was hot.
Very nice stay, only one or two bugs that bit.
Affordable, comfortable and well-equipped rooms for overnight stays. Good effective service and security. Would love to stay here again.
Perfect as an overnight stop.
Very clean and neat. Just a pity that the nursery was closed. Their times on the website is not correct.
See stars.
A beautiful village to spend the night. We were in the pink house. Excellently equipped with everything you need. Nice big fridge and big living area. Quiet enough to get a good night's rest. Will definitely stay here again.
Pragtige lodge. Geniet.
Thank you very much for the wonderful stay.
The rooms were spacious, everything was neat and clean. The kitchen was well equipped, the bathrooms were new and fresh. Paint colours funky and quirky.
We were very happy with the service and overall appearance of Obesa Lodge. Just disappointed that we were too late to see the succulent nursery.
The room was a bit dark with the color choice.
Very outdated. Water is brown and tastes salty - definitely not for drinking. Beds are uncomfortable and there is a very bad smell in the air. It was clean and just on the brink of being suitable for a stopover. Definitely not long stay accommodation.
The hostess was very pleasant and well prepared - we were impressed with her professionalism and willingness to provide information about the town and tourist attractions. The room was very neat, nicely decorated and well furnished. We were especially grateful for the electric blankets in the unexpected freezing weather. We would definitely recommend Obesa Lodge!
Friendly welcome, clean and tidy. Fair rates. Will stay there again.
Good service and facilities make for a good night's rest at Obesa.
The accommodation was spacious, neat and clean, and provision was made for the cold weather. The headboards of the beds in the children's room are unfortunately not attached to the wall so as the children would toss and turn during the night it would hit against the the wall of the main bedroom which kept us up for most of the evening. There aren't any other complaints but we had a lovely stay.
I highly recommend Obesa Lodge for self-catering accommodation in Graaff-Reinet. Feel free to book here for overnight or longer. The exterior detail is indicative of the complete self-catering facilities available within the accommodation.
Had a great stay. Friendly reception and staff. Very neat.
A quiet and secluded area with cottages cheerfully decorated! All basic needs met. Outside area very nice and relaxing!
Very nice and clean place. Quiet and peaceful. Braai facilities tidy.
Meets all basic requirements for short term stay and the management is very well organised, effective and helpful.
We enjoyed our stay but would have preferred the braai facilities to be closer to 'Flower Power' rather than around the corner. Cleaning staff need to liaise with Maintenance staff so that little things can be repaired as soon as possible and staff to double check that towels etc are correct - we had 2 bath towels not provided but it was rectified as soon as we mentioned it at the admin office.
Very peaceful environment, clean will definitely visit Obesa Lodge again.
The booking was very good, people were friendly and very helpful. Can recommend without a doubt!
The sleeping unit is top notch! Thank you very much, we will use it again when we visit the Cape again. Thank you very much!
This was the second visit to Obesa Lodge, and like last time we were very pleased with the unit and service. Thank you very much for your hospitality. You will definitely see us again.
What a cute place to stay. Colorful, spacious, neat and clean. Friendly hostess. Would recommend the place.
Very good accommodation. The old house gives a typical karoo nostalgia. The pool was a pleasant surprise.
Obesa Lodge was good overnight accommodation.
Perfect stop, centrally located, nice and clean with secure parking!
Very affordable accommodation, with everything you need. Very centrally located.
A very neat and clean house with all you require. Walking distance to all museums and city centre. Accommodation as a whole was well worth the price.
Very friendly and helpful. Secure parking.
Perfect accommodation at Jade Cottage. Spacious, very well equipped and clean. Good location.
Very peaceful and safe accommodation.
Obesa, what can I say? This has been the third time we spent there, definitely not the last. Each time we wished we could stay longer. One of the best guesthouses in our country. Thank you!
It was comfortable, and just what we needed for one night on our way to our destination.
The room is well-equipped with aircon, a ceiling fan and a panel heater and also very neat. The even provided mosquito repelent in the room! Will definitely be returing to Obesa Lodge when I'm in Graaff-Reinet again.
The lodge itself was very clean and neat. The reception was great.
Obesa Lodge exceeded all our expectations! Right from the outset with the collection of the keys to the departure. The little house was more than convenient and everything was spotless. Vehicles were safe behind a gate with a remote. Thank you for the brisk service!
Fantastic place that is spacious, neat and clean. Unbelievably friendly reception. Very nice stay. Would definitely like to go back.
Will definitely recommend this place, many thanks also to friendly staff.
See the stars.
Everything was in place and very neat. It was nice to come back after a day of walking around and everything is tidy and there are clean towels.
Beautiful rooms with pretty interiors. Very clean. Toilet had a leak, but the people responsible for fixing it arrived 5 minutes after we reported it. That was incredible. We were really impressed with everything. Will recommend Obesa Lodge to anyone looking for accommodation in Graaff-Reinet. Obese Lodge will definitely see us again. Thank you for a wonderful experience.
We stayed in the Familythyme Unit. The unit is very spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean. There is a swimming pool and free, secure parking. The lodge is in a quiet street, yet walking distance from restaurants and shops. It is close to the Obesa succulent nursery and there are beautiful succulent plants in the area! Sonja made us feel so welcome. I really recommend Obesa Lodge!
Even the cheaper units have air con! Really pleasantly surprised!
We definitely want to come back and stay longer next time. Extra hanging space for towels would be useful.
Had a great time and very good customer service. Would only suggest for an air con due to Graaff Reinet gets very hot, 40 degrees and only a fan was a bit too hot. Furthermore great great great!
We've slept here before, and like all the other times the staff were so helpful and friendly. The unit is clean and neat. It's a relief after hours of driving just to relax and jump in the pool!
Friendly welcome, fully equipped with what's necessary.
Nice units. Good environment near places to eat.
We stayed here at Obesa Lodge for two nights on our way to Mossel Bay to get to know the Graaff-Reinet area better. We stayed in unit "Jade". Each unit has its own color scheme and theme. The units are very comfortable and fully equipped for self-catering. We did make use of the breakfast option as well and it was fragrant, tasty and delivered to our unit deliciously hot on time, the table was ready, just right to sit down. It is definitely recommended to be able to spend more time in the area. Everyone was very friendly and explained to us what attractions there were and where we could also eat. One of the restaurants recommended was "The Coldstream Restaurant". It was definitely a great choice and the warm fireplace with cold and rain outside was another plus. We will definitely come and stay at Obesa Lodge again for a few days to explore the area further. Thank you for your hospitality and great stay.
There wasn't enough hot water for two people to shower the first night. Berries under trees outside were trodden into the unit and there was no broom to sweep it up. Otherwise it was pleasant and we enjoyed it a lot. Thank you so much!
This was probably our fourth time at Obesa. The bathrooms are a little primitive, but clean. And we got cleaned up. The price is fine. The location is excellent. We were only 300 m down the road from the Reinet House. And the restaurant, Pioneer, is right in front of the Reinet House. We ate ourselves full! We also had DStv. A fully equipped kitchen and a choice of different braai areas. Thus, I keep on going back!
Had a very friendly reception. Rooms spacious and very clean!
We had such a nice stay, our little house was spotless, we could eat off the floor if we wanted. Well equipped, centrally located, comfortable bed and lovely large bathroom. Sonja is a lovely and extremely capable hostess.
Please see the stars.
We had the family cottage. Big, clean and nice aqua colour.
We felt very safe at Obesa Lodge as senior citizens. Our car was nice and safe locked in our room. The place is very neat and I would really recommend it to anyone.
Nice spacious furnished houses to stay in. Quiet environment and close to shops.
The place was neat and fully equipped with a delicious breakfast
It's a nice place to stay. Very clean and comfortable. Very well managed.
Accommodation was very comfortable and the place is nicely equipped.
Good value for money. Interesting town with a quieter atmosphere.
Daar is geen lugversorging nie en die plafonwaaier werk nie. Ondergemiddelde verblyf.
Excellent service. Will definitely spend the night there again on the way to the Cape.
Het dit geniet, en sal dit vir almal aanbeveel!
Very clean and tidy. Everything needed for self-catering was there. Very quiet street. Definitely recommend it. Will stay there again.
We had a great time staying at Obesa, the place is so well furnished and the beds sleep wonderfully, but the braai place was our favourite. We will definitely stay there again if we ever go to Graaff-Reinet again.
A beautiful place, close to the old beautiful center of Graaff-Reinet. Less suitable for longer stays. The staff was not very talkative. This presumably had to do with the fact that there was a lot of police on the ground. riots Many police officials also stayed in the Lodge. They were very friendly by the way.
Nice and secure parking for both our vehicles as well as the camper trailer, which I could even plug in to keep the batteries fully charged. We could comfortably walk to the sights and we could have a nice barbecue outside on a neatly built barbecue with all the necessary accessories. I brought my own wood. My room was on the side of the road, which was a bit disturbing, because you can hear the conversation of everyone who walks by. The staff were friendly and helpful.
Good reception, big room equipped with almost everything we needed, we only missed KykNet. Good mattress, we were well rested after a restful night, can highly recommend it.
Please see the stars.
Well received and kindly treated. Location not the best, but stay was pleasant.
Thank you very much, had a lovely stay, good friendly service and would definitely recommend.
Great sleep!
Definitely not recommended. Health risk for all individuals with lung ailments. There are no view fans in the bathroom and it also has no windows.
See the stars.
Very, very neat. The security rating is unfortunately uncertain as no one is immune from crime. However, the safety at Obesa was good.
See the stars.
Quiet environment was lovely! Bright colors in and around our unit were uplifting and stimulating. Room was clean and perfection. We had a great time frolicking in the pool.
Air conditioning not very effective. Milk too little.
The place was easy to find, and it's close to excellent restaurants and the town center with its attractions.
I would recommend Obesa Lodge to any traveller. Excellent overnight facilities with adequate bathrooms and well located in beautiful town. I will stay here again next time. We were 6 adults and everyone was very surprised with the quality service and comfort. And the price is right for everyone's pocket.
The room is spacious, well furnished and tidy. The bathroom and shower are also very comfortable and clean. Enough towels, soap etc. Can definitely recommend Ebesa.
Location is ideal. Value for money!
Safe, clean, tidy and a good choice.
Clean and tidy. Will definitely recommend.
Cactus Garden was exceptional! Very nice and affordable accommodation. Neatly cared for.
Everything was clean, tidy and well laid out. It is good that there is room to sit outside in the cool. The safe parking place reassures you when you come to a strange town. I also appreciated the tourist information, it inspired me to visit the museums and the Valley of Desolation. The only recommendations I can make is to leave the windows open for ventilation, a sink in the kitchen area would also be convenient, and they can inform guests about power outages.
There were 5 of us traveling together and we had the whole Pers house to ourselves - beautiful! I would recommend Obesa Lodge to anyone anytime. It is a lovely visit in a lovely house in a beautiful town!
LekkeSlaap has made it easy for a person who doesn't know the area at all to make a well-informed decision. The stay met my expectations in all respects.
Beautiful and secure. The beds need attention or replacement, as there is nothing better than a good night's sleep.
See the stars below.
A very comfortable room with very neat facilities and friendly staff!
Very friendly hostess. Best rooms and best breakfast!
Unique, beautiful and value for money! Really feels like your home away from home!
Our experience of Obesa was very wonderful. We enjoyed every minute and all we regret is not being able to stay longer. We will definitely only use their services in the future.
The room was well equipped and the bed slept great. The TV's screen was small and low. The two chairs in front of the TV could be replaced with something better.
The house is nice and big, well furnished and very central!
Friendly service and very helpful, even though we arrived late. The cottage is spacious and very comfortably furnished. Everything needed is there, and the front door on the street makes it very convenient to walk around and drop off luggage.
We stayed in "tuti fruti". It was certainly very pleasant, clean and spacious. Many thanks to the staff who were also friendly and helpful.
Quiet, clean, tidy.
Quiet, spacious, and lekker!
We stayed there one night on our way to Oudtshoorn. Everyone was very friendly and helpful. The cottage was clean and comfortable with everything we needed. I would stay there again sometime - and the breakfast was delicious!
It's a beautiful and peaceful place. We felt comfortable and were very warmly welcomed and immediately felt at home.
After a long day's journey it is a place of rest. Graaff-Reinet is not for young thrill seekers, but has plenty of history for those interested.
Reception was friendly, rooms well maintained. Breakfast and dinner were always delicious. The owners were ready in front of us to arrange a vanilla stick. Giraffes, zerbras and deer on the grounds. Beautiful.
A very cute place to stay. I like the characterful, bright color combinations of the rooms and apartments. A very pleasant landlady who made me feel very welcome in the town. Very well located and easy to find.
We were kindly received and told everything we needed about the accommodation and Graaff-Reinet. The room is spacious, clean and well equipped. We had a very nice stay. Would recommend to anyone.
Lovely attentive hosts, and an absolutely delicious breakfast.
No complaints.
The room was clean and comfortable, it just needs an air conditioner.
Everything was clean and quiet for a good night's rest. The first night there were mosquitoes, but we come from the Lowveld and know how to get rid of them!
Maybe you could put in an air conditioner?
The Lodge is very centrally located with extremely friendly staff who provide prompt and customer-oriented service. I have already recommended it. Well done.
Just slept over, but would easily use them again.
The unit was adequate. The pool was lovely, just a shame we couldn't swim after 8pm. The only thing that bothered was the oppressive heat and not enough fans in each room.
Will recommend to everyone.
Luxury in an affordable way. An all-in-one place to stay and more. Value for money, absolutely.
