- Marole (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mathoho (1/5): Bad -
- Denelze (2/5): Very poor - Aircon Photos are deceiving. Water slide didn't work.
Luxury rooms the same as standard rooms. You don't get coffee only tee in your rooms. When we arrive all the water was out of the swimming pools.
We booked for a 7 night stay we left early because it is better to stay at home than this place.
- Dzivhuluwani (1/5): I did not check in at all left at the property - Nothing Got to the place and find everything dirty the room was having a very bad smell like poop there was a lot of water on the floor ..the pools were all dirty water was green unfortunately I couldn’t accept to check in as it was not meeting my expectations or what I’ve seen on the pictures posted online ..it looked absolutely nothing like what I saw on the pictures everything was old and dirty . I have requested to cancel my booking since there was no way I could stay in a place like that with my kids. Till now I am still waiting on their communication regarding my refund . I think bookings.com need to remove false advertising in their website . I even found a front in one of the pools this place is disgusting I am very disappointed i drove all the way from Nelspruit just to be disappointed my family was really looking forward to have a good time . I only need my refund because I cancelled the booking due to their own mistakes.

- Shandukani (5/5): We did have a good stay and we enjoy the slots game and our room was right. the staff was excellent. - Breakfast was right and chef he/she is good in kitchen. The orders came to our rooms at the time we expect them and our food were wrapped. The sugar, teas and milk where there to the room and the kettle.
The location is good The pools. We expected to have a pool near the rooms not the outside pools that was mixed with lots of people,some where drinking while swimming. They didn't clean the pool that was near the rooms and other pools where not clean.
Inside the room they forget to put 2 teaspoon to correspond with the cups. They should put two chairs instead of 1 for couples

When we arrived our room wasn't ready.

- Sechaba (10/5): Second stay at the place and lovely as ever. - My second time in a space of two months. I used the same bedroom I used in July. Room 4 was the room I used. I love the place and really don't know why they have a low rating on reviews. It is value for money clean and has a fast wifi. There's honestly nothing wrong with the place.
- Thabang (5/5): Passable - It’s well painted I was here a few years ago, the place has deteriorated and it’s sad to see that…the pools are dirty and not properly maintained!! Am just disappointed
- Gertus (8/5): Very good -
- Gertus (9/5): Superb -
- Wale (2/5): Poor service and facilities, poor food too - Everything is almost average The reception is always empty, it's a hustle to get hold of the staff there, I had to leave the keys on an empty desk when I was checking out. My room had no hot water and told them in the morning, they failed to fix it and changed my room after I went to the reception and found the desk empty again, then later called the manager from the business card I found on the desk who assisted in me changing rooms.
The staff is never where they are supposed to be

- Talfan (3/5): Overpriced - Air con was good to have
Reception guy was helpful and pleasant. Overpriced for a less than rudimentary room (10). 1 light switch away from the bed turns off/on all lights in room: bathroom, downstairs and upstairs and there isn't even one bedside lamp. We had to use the tv as a night light. Bathroom door doesn't close, shower would make someone who normally bucket baths happy, not someone who is paying $90usd for a night. No breakfast in the price, and rowdy other guests sitting outside their room which is basically in the car park. Awfully designed place. Would only stay again for half the price.
No warning about mozzies and no repellant provided. 4 fat mozzies went splat in the morning!

- Montsho (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thizwikoni (10/5): Exceptional -
