we would like to extend a heartfelt thank you for the week where we celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary. The team really went out of their way with the special dinner setting for our anniversary day, the breakfast packs for our day trip to the kruger park and the overall friendliness of all staff - to name a few, Hanru, Jeffery, Selby, Mavis and the rest of the team. The variety of the foods for dinner and breakfast was good and tasty. the resort is well kept and offers a nice tranquil and quiet environment to rest and rejuvenate oneself.

cannot give any negative feedback here.

La comida es buena y el personal agradable. Buen desayuno y todos los empleados son muy agradables al trato

El camino de acceso es complicado para llegar con un mini bus y nos tomaba demasiado tiempo llegar. La cancha de tenis esta casi inusable. El lugar es antiguo

Endroit hors du temps qui permet de faire un vrai break au milieu de la nature. Restaurant tout à fait correct. Le personnel est vraiment très attentif.

Un petit nettoyage des espaces communs serait appréciable.
