    It’s perfect. Pity we only needed it for one night. The property has a play area for the kids, a private braai & chairs with an umbrella on our porch. They organised a cot and a baby bathtub for us.

    Nothing bad. Kitchen would do with better lighting. Since it’s a self-catering, it’d be nice for it to be brighter when cooking.

    There were metal spoons. I usually struggle to get spoons and end up using plastic

    The location is central and the host were ok

    The facility is totally outdated and the furniture were odd. We stayed in unit 4 for one night. On confirming I asked if breakfast was an option with a positive answer when I wanted to book it wasn't anymore. The room is really not what I expected. Stayed in much better places for same price or less. Would not recommend it to friends.

    Property response:

    Thank you so much for your glowing feedback – we’re thrilled you noticed how ‘odd’ our furniture is, we actually paid extra for that unique look. As for breakfast, we do apologize that it wasn’t available at booking time… perhaps next time we’ll invest in a crystal ball so we can predict your exact moment of hunger. We’re also deeply sorry that our humble Unit 4 didn’t quite live up to the 5-star palace in your imagination. Rest assured, we’ll keep striving to meet the impossibly high standards of ‘better places for less.’

    Lovely facility with a play area for kids.

    Room was cold despite the heater. Shower ran out of warm water and the owners attitude when l explained that this was the delay of not checking out in time. That man's attitude was unpleasant.

    Property response:

    Dear Nosipho, You visited us in the middle of winter, so it’s naturally cold both indoors and outdoors. We provide ample hot water for our guests; however, it’s unfortunate when guests overuse it. When someone in your room showers for an extended period, it’s understandable that the hot water may run out, as your room was the only one connected to that specific geyser. It’s also challenging for me to discipline guests’ children when their guardians do not managing their behavior. Our fish in the pond died due to your children’s actions, which was very disappointing. Despite addressing this issue with them multiple times, the problem persisted, and your late departure added to the situation. Over thirteen years in business, we’ve received many positive reviews across various platforms, and you are the first guest to mention an issue with my attitude. However, repeated damages and disruptions can understandably affect one’s demeanor.

    The staff were incredibly welcoming and went out of their way to make us feel comfortable. The play area for children was fantastic — spacious, fun, and well-equipped. We also loved the wide variety of options available, which made the experience even more enjoyable for the whole family.

    The only small issue was the shower, which could be improved for added comfort, however the water was hot and we felt fresh before bedtime.

    I liked the place outside was secured .

    I didn't like the room I stayed on, the smell was too bad for my family it was smelling smoke and it was too dirty is such that the was snal that was on the wall in the bad room. The toilet was not operating when you have to release yourself you must use the backet to flash .

    Property response:

    We like to clarify that all our rooms are strictly non-smoking, so the smoke odor you experienced is concerning and unusual. Our team is always on-site and ready to assist with any maintenance needs (if notified). Upon inspection after your feedback, the toilet was functioning properly, but we acknowledge that temporary issues can arise. In the future, please alert us immediately so we can resolve such problems promptly. While snails occasionally appear near outdoor sliding doors after heavy rain or due to past flood conditions in the area, we recognize this should not affect your indoor experience.
