"Exceptional"

10.0

We had the most unforgettable stay this past weekend. The team went above and beyond to make our experience extra special – even helping us set up the most romantic picnic where I got to propose to my partner. Everything was perfect! The food was absolutely delicious, the atmosphere so peaceful, and the sunset views truly breathtaking. Thank you for creating memories we’ll cherish forever. We can’t wait to come back!

"Late afternoon and early morning walks amongst the spring flowers (on the board walk) and on the beach - definite winner"

9.0

The ambiance, the secluded location, close proximity to the beach, the food and service at the restaurant.

The smoking fireplace. A few small details (described in the guest book) to make our stay more comfortable.

"Beautiful location and friendly hosts"

7.0

Location is beautiful, beside the beach with amazing wildlife and sunsets

Think there is a pumping issue as very low water pressure resulting in the shower being a mere trickle which wasn’t great

"Exceptional accommodation and food in a unique setting beside a perfect beach."

10.0

The location with a beautiful succulent garden, sand dunes and an incredible beach of long white sand completely deserted. Chef Nico was almost a privet chef - so accommodating and so accomplished in his excellent cooking. The suite was large and clean with a super comfy bed. Sleeping next to the ocean with the sound of the surf was amazing. The access to the beach via the wooden walkway mad3 it so accessible. The birdlife, humpback whales, dolphins and seals were unforgettable.

We made a mistake and came along the direct coastal road which was slow and bumpy. It would have been great if the property had let us know that the best route was via the N7

"Delightful two-night escape at Draaihoek Lodge"

8.0

We had a delightful two-night escape at Draaihoek Lodge. The surroundings and ambiance are fantastic. We appreciated the tranquility and the cozy fireplace in our room.

There was a misunderstanding after we checked out, and we ended up being charged for the food even though I had reserved bed, breakfast, and dinner. We did receive a refund, but it might be helpful to mention the booked options during check-in.
