    The attention to detail both in the chalets as well as the whole resort. Gardens lush and beautiful. Bird life, views of the river and the mountains, hearing the cow bells and call of the herd men. Having no load shedding was a huge plus! Chalets have all you need, are comfortable with good quality linen on the beds.

    Idyllic. Picture Perfect. The gardens are perfectly landscaped and beckon you to explore them more. We thoroughly enjoyed the walk beside a stream that led to a beautiful waterfall. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. The interior design is impressive.

    Excellent location so much to do. The views were breath taking. People are friendly and welcoming. Excellent facilities. Security was excellent. No medical facilities near by almost stepped on a puff adder while walking on a path. More information on emergencies for snake bites required. Will definitely visit soon. Overall an excellent and magical destination.

    Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

    I would request for a gym, sona and spa to be available on the premises. The food most definitely worth every cent, the chef was definitely cheffing. The staff made me and my children enjoy their stay a lot, and planning to save more money for a lengthier stay. The place is just too big that even for a whole week there would be activities in and out of the property meaning that being bored is most definitely no option. Views are just breath taking at night and during the day.

    There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.
