This stay was unplanned and booked last minute. And we didn´t regret it! Tasty food, great wine and a lodge with a view over the game farm. The 2 game tours (evening and morning) ,included into the room rate, are fascinating. We saw all big 5, except leopard, but therefore Cheetahs on the hunt.

Perfect location. The room had a great view. We enjoyed the onsite restaurants, the kids play areas, and the hikes down to the beach (fisherman's walk).

A lovely house in the trees, with a view. Quiet, cosy, stylish and comfortable. Great veranda to sit out on, and eat or read. Very convenient for the beautiful Garden Route. We wish we could have stayed longer. All the houses on the property are well separated from each other and not overlooked.

Security for us is always a major factor when we travel….. so we definitely felt extremely safe. The views from the main bedroom was absolutely breathtaking. The entire house gives you a beach vibe which is very relaxing.the staff were so welcoming and friendly- it was also very neat……. Restaurants are also two minutes away so we even took a walk to go for dinner.

Wooden chalet rooms with lovely views. We were in the honeymoon suite which we highly recommend- set on stilts it was a tree house beautiful and thoughtfully set up with balcony under a tree with views across the countryside. Huge bath and fire place in a lovely big room. Breakfast and the buffet supper on Friday were awesome, lovely fire in the dining room.

Breakfast was outstanding in choice and quality and was served in a beautiful light and sunny room. Staff were next level and made one feel like the only person staying at the lodge with their friendly, yet professional manner. The dinners at all of the restaurants was beautifully presented and of exceptional quality. A wide variety of facilities and services available to guests. Lovely walks on the property. Location was secluded enough to offer serenity and relaxation yet within close enough proximity to all the local attractions.

The property was beautifully furnished, very spacious and had lovely views over the bay. Vanessa was very helpful and attentive. The rooms were extremely comfortable and well equipped. The terrace was a great place to relax especially in the evening with the outside fire lit. Good off road parking, some secure behind the entrance gates. Breakfast was plentiful and delicious. All staff were very friendly.

Our room had a jacuzzi. It was nice and romantic. The hotel is also 6km from TheHeads where you get to see the beautiful Knysna views. We jogged to the heads and took an Uber back. It was very lovely.
