Janis (9/5): -
C (7/5): Good value for money, convienient location quiet and clean - Located in the Centre of town, quiet and clean. Safe parking Hot water didn’t happen. Bathroom very old towels too
G (4/5): - Host was nice and friendly. Beds are really really uncomfortable they have no support and feels worn out. Everything is a bit on the old side and fridge was dirty. For a backpackers it was overpriced
Susanna (6/5): It is old but clean. Can we suggest a mirror for the family room, please. -
Mark Spagen (8/5): My stay was good just the problem with the pricing - I think the price must be per room and not per person because you come to find I had a visitor who came to only spend a few hours with me but I have to pay for 2 people as if there's 2 people sleeping there. It is very inconvenient, why put facilities for enjoyment if one cannot have a visitor come over to spend time day?!
Timm (5/5): - Location . The garden , grounds need attention .
Patt (10/5): -

Jaundre (10/5): - The quietness Having no fan because it was very hot
Laëtitia (6/5): - Nous avons apprécié la piscine, bien entretenue et le petit billard, mais dans l'ensemble le lieu manque d’âme et de charme.
Etienne (5/5): Stay at Oudtshoorn Oasis Shanti backpackers. - Close to town. Inside parking. Good for rock climbing needs. Extra room offered free. Crampwd with dorm type beds although it is listed as backpacker. Dirty cutlery.
Brandon (10/5): A little place in Heaven - I booked the accommodation for a family trip not knowing that it was the exact same place my uncle booked for us exactly 10 years ago and was thrilled to see that everything was exactly as it was on my previous visit... Owners even swapped rooms for us to make it easier for the stay and even waited for my super late arrival... Rooms and toilets were super clean and tidy and pool area was perfect. Parking was great and safe because it accommodated my trailer as well and drop safe idea for keys was a brilliant idea for checking out, will definitely be using this place for future travels and will highly recommend
Venita (10/5): - Everything the whole house and the pool And it was very quiet love it
Viljoen (7/5): - The wifi Speed was Amazing. Looking at the stars while you shower. Overall vibe was nice and comfortable. The toilet seat cover was broken and pinched when you sat down. The toilet was in the sun the entire day and was extremely difficult to use during the day.

Cook (9/5): I always enjoy staying there. Thank You xx - the location is perfect. I would have liked the washing machine facilities to be used(even at a cost) and more shade like umbrellas around the pool areas during the summer season. The pool was very clean thank you xx i also appreciate the snooker board for my son I liked everything xx
Bienie (9/5): Superb -
Marcelino (8/5): Very good - Myself and family enjoyed the pool the most as the water temperature was perfect. The family room was ideal for us as well, beds are well spaced apart. There's a little round table in the room which great for sitting and just relaxing. The property had all the basic utensils in the kitchen including an airfryer which was great. There's no air-conditioning in the family room we stayed in however there is a ceiling fan which didn't help much as it was hot in the room making it uncomfortable to sleep.
Marais (8/5): Very good - No breakfast All ok for the price
Esther (8/5): excellent and good place - everything Pool and cozy

Chamelle (9/5): Cosy, quiet getaway with family, was greatly hosted - The privacy was out of this world. Quiet caravan in the backyard, had a lovely afternoon nap. Kids had the pool to themselves bbq facilities were available. Excellent cosy glamping experience the tv in caravan could perhaps have even if its ovhd.

Verified traveler (6/5): Value for money during KKNK stay - I booked for someone else. She was happy. and felt safe as a single person. Quite area and room was clean with good mattress.
Bothma (10/5): Exceptional - N/A A little table/worktop in the room
Yaso (8/5): Very good - The fact that each room had its own bathroom or shower. The guests respected each other. The kids enjoyed the swimming pool and playing games. The electric stove did not work, and the gas two plate gave off a lot of smoke, that put me off. You must look into that so that meals can be prepared without fear. Also it would be a great idea to sell braai wood.
Kesentseng (9/5): Superb -
