Chalets clean and modern.Posted on Corre WehmeyerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing view and private enough to break away from a busy city life. Had a great time here and definitely worth the money.Posted on Keano CoopoosammyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Amazing place.Posted on Bernice AdamsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a break away from the city's hustle and bustle, the tranquility, serenity and peace is unlike any other place I've been to. Watching the sunsets from the comfort of your couch, to seeing all species of birds just casually fly over the accommodation. The Quagga's who come when you call them for a pic, its absolute magic! I'll be back soon!Posted on Posh BergieTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. An absolutely amazing place to unwind and switch off. The hosts were incredibly kind and the service was top tier. The accommodation is exceptional with quality furnishings and amenities. The WiFi was decent as well but the most amazing sounds of birds and river songs will ensure your stay here is memorable. The game drive and boat trips, arranged with reception, were both enjoyable and memorable. We saw a number of animals including the Quagga, springbok, some small duiker thing. We missed the buffalo as they rested under the shade of the bushes, but advice given was to ask for a game drive with the trailer as this is a food run which the animals know and usually come out for. An amazing stay and one that I would genuinely want to go back to. A wonderful family holiday topped off with a stay at a wonderful and private chalet. Highly recommended!Posted on Ronel Van GraanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Game Drive: Welcomed at the jetty, by a friendly team after a boat charter from Velddrif, we encountered rare and captivating animals, including golden wildebeests, springboks, quaggas, sables, and the elusive cape fox. Guided by a knowledgeable expert, we gained fascinating insights into the wildlife, making every moment a privilege. Highly recommended.Posted on Roelien Van HuyssteenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a beautiful stay! Beautiful views, sunsets and quiet nights. Everything was neat and clean. Will definitely be back for another stay.
