- Taryn (7/5): Very nice and cute -

- Roberto Robbie (9/5): Stayed here 2024 and 2025 for Union Cricket Festival, and both times did not disappoint - Our Flat was well equipped and comfortable, the Aircon in the rooms was a blessing with the heat of Graaf Reinet at the time, the pool and braai areas was a pleasure to be used Nothing to complain
- Dominique974 (8/5): - L'appartement est vraiment bien équipé. La voiture est à l'abri dans la cour. Il y a la climatisation dans l'appartement. Les draps sentent bon. L'endroit est calme. Il y a une véranda extérieure pour manger. Il y a une piscine. Un étendoir pour faire sécher son linge.
- Conway (10/5): Loved the overnight stay and will definitely book in if ever in the area again - The property was neat and secure. Loved the details in every corner of the property. It was well maintained. The lady at reception was extremely helpful

Great overnight stay

- Farai (9/5): -
- Matthew (10/5): -
- Vickey (7/5): - It was close to the cactus 🌵 nursery
It was awesome to see such gigantic plants. Other than that, there was not much to see. Didn't have a proper kitchen basin.
Had to wash plates in the bathroom basin that was disgusting 🫣 fļ.
- Cristobal (9/5): -
- Yolande (9/5): My stay at Obesa - The settings, outlay off the place.The theme of each house was quite unique. Beds apart for couples

Quiet.
Had everything we needed. Liked it.

- Prinsloo (10/5): -
- Pauline (9/5): - Beautiful place. Beds ain't comfortable, consider new firm beds, not the spring beds. Summer right now, beds should not have electric blanket and a blanket, I had to remove the blanket.

- Elizabeth (9/5): -
- LYNDA (9/5): -
- sandra (10/5): I recommend - Thank you for the cozy little stop over, i was a little worried about the place but quite surprised, clean, and cozy. Very helpful. Thank you to the lady that sent me the parkrun information, without, I would have been late, thinking it would start at 8. 🌹 Maybe a little tuck shop where you can get something cold to drink
- Fay (10/5): Wonderful overnight stay on our way home and wanted to see one more town. - Beautiful property. Loved the colors. It was close to everything we needed. We were welcomed and given all the instructions we needed along with ideas of things to do and where to eat. The room was larger than expected and if we were staying longer we would have been very comfortable. It’s a personal preference- the bed was too soft for my liking but nothing wrong with it. Some people prefer a softer bed so I would not say ot was a huge problem.
- van Aswegen (9/5): Don't miss the cactus garden or valley of desolation. - Aircon, cactus, swimming pool, bedding good. Personal preference on outside view...too colorful to our taste.
- Carey (7/5): Very comfortable. - Room was spacious, and had aircon. Curtains in the navy room were not dark enough.
- Christelle (10/5): - It was brilliant, enjoyed our stay to the fullest!
- Juanita (8/5): Central clean with friendly cat - The property is very central, walking distance to the Reinet House, art galleries, and Information Center. Cute cat immediately made himself at home. Clean room and swimming pool.
- Suliman (8/5): -
- Madima (8/5): Nice place to stay - The location was easy to reach Nothing

- Sylvia (10/5): Thank you for a pleasant stay over. Will recommend it and make use of accommodation in future - Very neat and clean. N/a
- Gerhard (7/5): -
- Adri (9/5): Quick and comfortable overnight - Nice big rooms with everything needed Very colourful but all good!
- Alison and Jan (8/5): Overnight stop - Nice large room, very comfortable bed and linen. Two doors, and windows so lots of air flow, lovely effective aircon, large shower
Loved the ornaments and arty touched in the gardens. Lots of bird life. Pool was refreshing No complaints, apart from the heat in the town 😅
- Leonard (8/5): -

- Rachida (5/5): Weinig comfortabel - Goede locatie op wandelafstand van het centrum. Personeel komt dagelijks langs voor onderhoud. Heel erg verouderd en heel koud. Enkel airco/verwarming in de slaapkamers. Weinig comfort, versleten meubilair. Veel lawaai van omliggende huizen en straatlawaai.
- Amori Erasmus (6/5): Beautiful room, but very noisy - Stayed in the JADE unit.
Beautiful and clean unit, comfortable bed and nice layout. Undercover parking behind remote gate.
New airfryer in the kitchen and most of the things you need to cook a meal. People next door were super loud until 4am, road is also quite noisy. Walls are not very sound proof.
Badluck if you get bad neighbors, I guess
- Minnaar (10/5): Value for money - Clean, spacious and everything we needed was there.
- XOLELWA (10/5): We had wonderful stay at Obesa Lodge keep up the good work 😀 - Location was situated in a convenient place and easy to get the place, we even requested to check in earlier and they agreed. Wish they can have small heaters it's very cold in winter at Graaff-Reinet. But we understand electricity is expensive.
