Guest Reviews
- Vikash (7/5): Memorable experience - View and location Size of TV
- Sundhrasegaran Chinniah (10/5): Beautiful stay - It would be a suggestion to consider a putt putt course and a general revamp. Overall it was a great stay and definitely want to come back.
- Busi (9/5): Superb stay! - The bedrooms and bathrooms were clean, comfortable beds. Kitchen has everything you need. Lounge spacious. A home away from home. Nothing
- Ajuree (9/5): Perfect berg getaway - Everything was just perfect . Spacious house and well equipped with utensils. Clean and well maintained. Loved the fireplace. Scenery around was awesome. Comfortable beds and get linen. Visiting buck and geese on the property was fun. Good yard to relax. The sun daybed with open glass was an outstanding feature. Nothing much.Just wifi for the tv network was slow and buffered. To note a few plug points were not working...
- Hanneke (9/5): Lovel location and lovely renovated house -
- Helene (10/5): - We loved the whole experience. The house/architecture is lovely. Not enough side plates, pan handles need tightening and dishes could be updated
- Christine (5/5): Lage war sehr schön - Lage war sehr schön Im neuen Haus Nr. 6 Schlafzimmer Schimmel untern großen Fenster
Altes Haus Nr. 11 sehr abgewohnt schmutzig keine Beschattung (Sonnenschirm oder Markise)
Schlafzimmer oben sehr starker Geruch nach Asphalt Teppich schmutzig und das Haus sehr abgewohnt
- Rengasami (9/5): -
- Pamela (5/5): It was a pleasant enviroment just the condition of the unit put a damper on the holiday . - The location was beauttiful The unit was in need of lot of maintenance . The toaster didn't work we had to hold the lever down for it to work. The dishwasher was not working . There was only 5 garden chairs of which 1 was broken ( accomodation for 9 people ? ) The Garden umbrella was broken . The bathroom light in the bathroom upstairs flickered on and off all night . The unit was in serious need of painting. Bathroom upstairs had mold on the walls and ceiling .
- GORDON (8/5): We loved being in Champagne Valley. Champagne Haven is close to all the amenities. Safe and comforta - Spacious, private garden area Dishwasher not working
- Roxanne (10/5): -
- Kerryn (10/5): - The location was breathtakingly beautiful and serene, just what I was looking for. It was also close enough to all the places we wanted to visit. N/A
- Thabatha (8/5): -
- Lindiwe (10/5): - Everything was perfect. The owner was friend 🧡. We will definitely come back. I have never seen a beautify as this. The Cleaner didn't clean at all on Saturday and when we called her she gave us an attitude. She said she was going to send someone to clean on her behalf, but no one came and again we called her and she said she has already left. Her attitude towards us was very bad. I even told her and she was angry, she ended up raising her voice at me over the phone but I didn't allow her.
- Hester Maria (8/5): - The view is amazing
- tokoloho (10/5): -
- John (8/5): Great location and views - Location and views
Security
Maid was amazing Needs updating- landlord told me about that before hand we should have taken Nr 6 and paid the extra
We still had a great stay and would stay again if 11 wa the only option
Thanks
- Pretty Mvelo (10/5): I had one of my best family vacations in this place we created memories that will last forever - The house is absolutely beautiful. We were privileged enough to have Zebras visit the house. It was also big enough to cater for my family of 8 plus my nephew. Truly the best house ever Nothing
- Rhett (4/5): Disappointing - Was not told that there was a building site right next door. Work was done all weekend with lots of site noise and building rubble within our property. Could not enjoy the serenity of the Berg.
- Nothando (10/5): -
- Kat (8/5): good - Lovely location and facilities are good The plumbing needs attention
- Singh (10/5): - A was a but apprehensive about this trip due to recent reviews, however Di assured me that I had nothing to worry about, how true she was! We stayed in unit 11, beautiful, clean and serene. The daily views are breath taking. Be sure to visit the other dams in that area, stunning views. All the Bass were hibernating for winter 😄
- Hillman (9/5): Great place - Wonderful property, great location. Some building going on next door which we didn’t know about beforehand, which was noisy during the day. Seems to be a number of cottages in the estate being upgraded.
- Ashmira (6/5): A much needed break in the mountains.. - The location and views at the village are amazing! When I booked I thought I was booking the newer chalet, only to find out when I checked in, it was the older rustic chalet. This was a great disappointment as the pictures on the booking showed pics of the new chalet. This was queried with the host who at first was defensive but upon her own review on booking.com she noticed that booking.com had not separated the chalets for booking hence it automatically booked either one. The host immediately rectified with booking.com and I noticed now, it is resolved 👏👏 The older chalet did not have a hairdryer and the host was extremely kind to arrange one for me, thank you Diane 👏 The facilities in the older chalet are old, including the appliances, the cutlery, pots and dishes are outdated and in desperate need of change. We had an older couple with us so the bottom rooms only had a bath tub with shower above, this was difficult for them to get in and out. The upper baths were spacious but steep stairs to get to the top floor. We eventually settled in but the experience of not having stayed in the newer chalet (our expectation) put a damper on the stay but just being around nature and beautiful surroundings made the stay alot better. The receptionist did advise that the older chalet will be revamped soon, that will be great! Will definitely return, only this time to stay in the newer chalet. Diane is a great host and she answers immediately to any queries you may have! Although the booking issue is resolved, just confirm with her when you book the new holiday home.
- Gounder (10/5): -
- Susan (4/5): Lovely position but dark,dated interior not suitable for elderly - Peaceful resort I was very disappointed with the accommodation as the pictures showed a light and bright modern interior and it was dark,gloomy and dated. Also a big problem that we had a senior family member and the only downstairs bathroom had shower in a bathtub which was not accessible to them so no other option than to have to negotiate the stairs to use an upstairs shower. Apparently there are two properties under this listing so be aware to specify if you want the light modern property shown in photos which does have a walk in downstairs shower.
- David (7/5): Good - Excellent accommodation. No hot water upstairs. Family bathroom upstairs, toilet seat falling off, basin plug leaking,,
No cushions for outside chairs.
- Lutchman (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was beautiful. Staff are friendly and the house is absolutely clean and well kept
- Ranjini (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely comfortable
Utensils we're perfect for our stay.
Beds and linen spotless
A home away from home
Fantastic Absolutely nothing.
Just a mug was chipped which is insignificant
Wonderful easy check in
Kind people
- Samantha (9/5): Amazing cozy getaway with my family. -
- Charmaine (8/5): Very good -
- Philani (9/5): Superb - Clean Owner robbing guest with the breakage fee
- Niresha (5/5): An honest review. - The location was picturesque. The house was really clean, tidy and spacious.
Kitchen was well stocked with utensils and crockery. Helper was really friendly and efficient. The house, chalet 11 is advertised with another house which looks really modern. If the modern house is booked you will not know and book the second house. The description of both houses is not clear so be cautious when booking. I was told it was my responsibility to check.
The bathrooms and other items such as tablecloth, curtains etc, need an upgrade. The beds upstairs in the guest room is old and sunken, barely got any sleep.
The house states fireplace, but we weren't allowed to use the fireplace due to the rules stated on check in.
- Navika (10/5): Absolutely amazing - The location was absolutely gorgeous with breathtaking views of the Mountains. We had an extremely comfortable stay in a very modern, clean and spacious home. Will definitely visit again! Wifi could have had a better connection.
- Rana (9/5): Good...relaxing - More activities on premises for teenagers
- Yvette (9/5): Superb -
- Zinhle (10/5): Exceptional - The environment was excellent We not able to use the fireplace but conditions were stated.

- Wendy (10/5): Highly recommend and I’m sure we will be back! - Beautiful chalet, recently renovated. Breathtaking views of the mountains. Great location with lots to do within the area. Everyone we came into contact with was so friendly and helpful.
- Tivers (9/5): Superb - A beautifully finished holiday home with all the facilties for a relaxing family vacation. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with friends from the UK who were blown away by the standard of finishing set in a wonderful part of the Drakensberg. The feature window was a big hit too.
- Munsami (9/5): Superb -
- Manikum (9/5): Superb -
- Kathy (10/5): Relaxed and happy family holiday and lovely accommodation - memory making. - Was a lovely few days away and the accommodation was perfect with lots of space and very comfortable. The housekeeper was very sweet and did a great job. Just one thing I would add is a pair of scissors in the kitchen other than that everything was catered for.
- Tamlyn (8/5): Great location, beautiful views, and it had everything we needed for our few day stay. -
- Busisiwe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jason (10/5): Excellent, value for money. Great place for a family getaway - Everything. Was a great location and the facilities were exceptional. My family and I really enjoyed it and are definitely planning to come again. Nothing, everything was perfect. No complaints at all.
- June (10/5): Exceptional - Peace and tranquility
- Lisa (8/5): Very good -
- Irving (7/5): Good -
- Selvia (5/5): Passable - Beautiful setting
Peaceful The accommodation is old and worn out
Musty smell
No keys to bathroom doors
Leaking bath and shower
Bats and spiders at night in the room
Lots of mosquitoes
Water was intermittent due to broken pipes
Lots of loadshedding
- Griffith (10/5): Wonderful location, well equipped house, excellent and helpful host! - Excellent and friendly receptionist.
- Waller (5/5): Passable - House was a nice size for a holiday property and the grounds were maintained well. Children's playground and pool was lovely. Gorgeous views of the mountain ranges. The furnishings and fixtures in the property are tired and need upgrading. Master bedroom bed sagged in the middle, and the comforter was torn. Dining room chairs are incredibly heavy (my children battled to move them), and some were broken. Kitchen knives are blunt, and while we were there the dstv had to be reconnected, and the oven had to be repaired. Fair number of light globes didn't work. It just seems like the property needs to be lifted a bit and then checked over before guests arrive.
- Anton (8/5): Very good -
- Ian (9/5): Really enjoyed the stay - Relaxed with good facilities Nothing
- Stefanie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Catherine (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tobias (8/5): Very good -
- Lalbasanth (9/5): Superb - Everything was beautiful 😍, especially the esthetic. I couldn't get to the snow 😞 , loading shedding was a real damper although there was mobile lights , a generator would have been a bonus.
- Heather (8/5): Restful and had the berg flavour - View and had space with 4 bedrooms plus great dam and walks No electric blankets , one heater didn’t work so we were very cold. Place couches to see the magnificent views.
- Farrah (6/5): Pleasant -
- Prakashni (10/5): A beautiful, relaxing weekend with good friends. - Location, Peaceful, Cleanliness The bathrooms . Maybe an upgrade?
- Natasha (10/5): Exceptional - Everything is beyond expectations it was an amazing place and a wonderful environment. It's safe and absolutely neat. The management team was exceptional. Everything is at the facility which you won't find at other self catering Chalets. Definitely will be going back and the helpers are wonderful and very polite.
- Elmarie (10/5): Spectacular views of the mountain, beautiful and homely cottage and friendly resident zebras - what - The scenery is spectacular. The accommodation had a homely feel - I honestly didn't want to leave! Absolutely nothing
- Zack_za (9/5): Peaceful magnificent surroundings - Excellent location. Superbly equipped. Awesome views. Peaceful surroundings. As load-shedding is most definitely not a new thing in SA we would have expected the place to be better equipped in terms of back-up lighting. The existing light worked for 15 mins only. The resort and campsite across the road had back-up power which made no sense why this place did not. Extreme weather also caused sporadic blackouts so a more efficient back-up system (at least lighting) would be great especially at a accommodation rate of just under $200/night
- Isobel (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful clean home. The owner prepared us for loadshedding. Not having electricity on this property is not a problem, just go outside and watch the stars. There are lovely walks. The shop is within walking distance, and it has everything you need as far as souvenirs and groceries are concerned. This was our second visit, and definitely not the last. Highly recommended. Bring binoculars if you enjoy bird watching.
- Alicja (6/5): Pleasant - Position, a nice garden Electric power off a twice per day.
The house smells of a crisol (wood roof structure was painted by it) and all the house smells of it
- Wendy (3/5): Poor - Its very difficult to review a place we didn't actually stay at, however on arrival we found the place musty and dank and very hot and decided to book a place elsewhere. You don't see the view and that's what you go there for. The outside area is in the blazing sun with no shelter with a metal table and chairs that would burn if you sat at them. This area is also where you park a car and the beautiful view is completely obstructed by hedging. An umbrella stand does not seem to have an umbrella to go with it. The inside needs an update, there is one fan for the whole house and the windows have to stay closed because of the monkeys. Its very stuffy, musty and unpleasant.
- Hasan (10/5): Too short ☹️ - The calmness & location Nothing
- Nickyp75 (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful accommodation with amazing views.
- Lucy (6/5): The location was great but accommodation not up to standard . - The property was advertised as luxury but unfortunately the beds were very soft and uncomfortable. The shower door in no 6 was broken and off the rails and the shower in no 11 caused a flood in the bathroom. The fans could not stand up on their own and some did not work at all. Rather disappointing accommodation.
- Amy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mclean (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daphne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - The peace and tranquility was just the best. Loved having a fire at night. View of the mountains was exceptionally beautiful.
- Sindy (9/5): Superb -
- Brett (10/5): Exceptional -
- Manuella (9/5): We've stayed at various homes at Champagne Resort before and this home was the best. - Location was excellent. The kitchen was well stocked with crockery and cutlery and I was very surprised to see baking pans etc. in the drawers. Beds were very comfortable.
- Sumaiya (7/5): Resort was beautiful. Kids loved the play area. - U should invest in generators. The power was out for 6 hrs a day. Also u need to upgrade ur pillows and linen.
- Amina (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful place, friendly owner and staff, the pictures on the website does not make any justice for the place, it is actually more beautiful live.. The place is very clean, and the owner is very attentive.. Nothing
- Jabulani (10/5): Exceptional -
- Linda (9/5): Superb - Well equipped and very comfortable. The main bedroom was unavailable, which was a problem as we had two girls, three women and one boy.
- Susan (9/5): Superb -
- Jackie (9/5): Great for a family weekend away. - A lovely venue, stunning views.
- Rolf (6/5): Top Lage , leider abgewohnt - Lage ist top , aber sehr abgewohnt , Ameisen in der Küche ,es wird nicht repariert
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The setting of this property is beautiful. The property was clean but cluttered. Double bed in upstairs main bedroom was small - warm weather made it uncomfortable for sleeping - maybe needs a ceiling fan and a queen sized bed for comfort.
