Villa Colinas at Serenity Hills

I booked for my family as the facility is in my estate, very convenient. They loved everything about it. They mentioned comfy beds & duvets, breakfast, staff, the quietness at night, my sister even said that it felt like there was a no noise sign outside for everything to keep quiet & still for a beautiful night. Very serene. They also loved the lounge area by the pool.

We had such a relaxing time at Villa Colinas. The staff was awesome - super friendly and extremely helpful. Our room was spotless and cozy, and we loved waking up to the sound of birds and whispering trees and palms in the morning, how cool is that? The breakfast was fresh and very tasty, a perfect start to the day. We had a special request and the staff did not hesitate a second; they went the extra mile and made us some "5 minute eggs" (very popular in Switzerland :). The amenities here truly elevate the experience. The pool was clean and very inviting - perfect for relaxing or getting in for a quick swim even though the weather was not so great. We loved having access to the walking trails right on the property; they are well - maintained and a great way to unwind. The on-site restaurant is a huge bonus - they prepare very delicious and special dishes (they cooked the salmon steak on a wooden board on the open fire, wow!) and super convenient when you don’t feel like going far. Peaceful, clean, and welcoming - exactly what we needed, thanks so much for the great time. We highly recommend Villa Colinas! Warm regards from Switzerland and we can't wait to be back!

The weather, but we believe this is not your fault :)

Amazing location and loved the view from the balcony and surrounding forests.

That we could not use the kitchen area. We could not warm up our food or make our own coffee etc.

We had an absolutely amazing time staying at Villa Colinas! From the moment we arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and made us feel at home. When we arrived we got a welcome drink, what a great start! The room was spacious, clean, and perfect for our family. We loved the cozy atmosphere and all the extra touches. The location of Villa Colinas was ideal, with plenty of nearby attractions for both adults and children to enjoy. The pool and entertainment area was a big hit with our kids, and the on-site restaurant had a great variety of family-friendly meals. There is also a great jungle gym. The kids were even able to prepare their own dessert together with the chefs in the kitchen, what a lovely surprise! What really stood out to us was the exceptional customer service. Every request was met with a smile, and the staff went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. We appreciated the thoughtful recommendations for family activities and the attention to detail throughout our stay. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend Villa Colinas to anyone looking for a family-friendly vacation spot. We’re already looking forward to our next visit! Next time we will stay much longer...

Lovely, Unexpected Bed and Breakfast in Serene Nature We had the pleasure of staying at Villa Colinas in Serenity Hills, Mar gate, and were truly impressed by this hidden gem. Nestled in absolutely serene nature, the peaceful surroundings are a rare find these days. Walking trails lead directly from the accommodation into the indigenous bush, offering a tranquil escape, yet the estate remains very safe within an electrically fenced property with secure access. Villa Colinas, an old farmhouse beautifully renovated into a unique bed and breakfast, exudes charm and warmth. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed by the spacious entrance and a genuinely inviting atmosphere. The friendly and attentive staff made our stay feel special. With just four en-suite rooms, the intimate setting is complemented by a lovely garden, a spacious verandah, and a sparkling clear pool. The entertainment room features a pool table, a huge TV with all channels you could wish for, darts, and a cozy snack and soft drink corner. Sitting outside in the late afternoon or evening, soaking in the peaceful ambiance with a drink in hand, was a true highlight after a day of exploring. The hospitality was outstanding, with attention to every detail. The central coffee station in the tastefully decorated breakfast room/lounge was a thoughtful touch. Breakfast was absolutely delicious, with a choice of eggs and a generous buffet featuring fresh fruit, a selection of muesli, cheese, sliced ham and chicken, and more—each item presented with care. Our twin room was comfortably converted into a queen-size bed and offered a beautiful garden view. Villa Colinas also offers a deluxe balcony room and a spacious family suite on the upper level. A heartfelt thank you to the entire team for making our stay a memorable one. We will definitely be back for a longer visit!

the quietness and the pool. We appeared to be the only guests.

We re-arranged our departure to be available for a 07:00 breakfast & then no one appeared to prepare it.

Friendly staff, serenity at night.

Room had a fan but not effective at all, served no purpose, caused discomfort due to heat. Had to open windows and had bugs come in. No mini bar fridge or Tea station in the room, could not warm food. This was just a sleeping facility which was not expected. The site does not clearly state anywhere that it is not self catering. Cooked breakfast was okay, could have had more options. Continental breakfast very poor.

Literally everything, the attention to detail was on point. The host Thandeka was lovely and helpful when needed. The place itself was beautiful and well appointed. Julie was also a star, and helped make our wedding the best ever. I cannot rate this place higher, I wish I could. The pool table, chess, dart board and swimming pool were lovely, I wish I had more time to enjoy it all but as I was getting married we had other things on our minds. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. My bridesmaids, their partners and my husband and I had the very best time!!! There are not enough words in the world to describe my happiness.

This isn't even a dislike, everything was so amazing. The only small thing I'd mention is maybe an L shaped couch to accommodate all 8 guests as the seating only comfortably accommodates 6. Other wise everything was amazing!

It’s a beautiful older building that was renovated. The bedrooms are very pretty 😍

This hotel seems fairly new and I think they need a few tweaks. They don’t have bar fridges in the rooms which makes storing your stuff a nightmare e.g if you had left over food from a restaurant outing that you wanted to eat later…etc. It would be nice if you can also have a coffee/tea station in the bedrooms. The breakfast offering could use some improving with alittle more variety
