PETER Sep 29, 2025 04:31:33 PM
Summary: Check-in took too long, requested extra bed was not arranged so had to wait around 30 mins. Breakfast was lacking & staff not attentive. A/C worked well and powerful (hot) shower but no soap or other amenities provided. Pool closed for refurb (not mentioned before). Noise from adjoining bar. Reception did find us a good taxi for trip out to Kalima reptile park and back to airport.

Hennie Aug 31, 2024 08:21:38 PM
Summary: We only stayed for 1 night. We had a large room, big enough for the four of us. Breakfast was included, no vegan options as I did ask for prior to our stay. Dinner was average and cheap.
Rein Mar 13, 2024 04:34:23 AM
Summary: The property was under construction outside, with new guest rooms being added. Our room was huge and comfortable, but basic in it's features, especially the washroom. The staff were flawless, polite and helpful in every way. The food was simple but served very hot and tasty and everything was spotlessly clean throughout. Loved the thatch-roofed bar out back.
DONNA Oct 21, 2022 05:00:55 AM
Summary: Friendliness and clean
ALAN Sep 2, 2022 04:38:48 PM
Summary: Part of my return trip from South Africa due to business and well received
