Breede Valley Holiday Rentals

"We stayed at the property due to its close proximity to a wedding we were attending. The staff couldn’t do enough for you. The thing that brought down our experience were the ants in our room. They were crawling on the bed and our clothing which was unsettling. While the staff tried to remedy it through cleaning, you’d still wake up with them in the bed. "

"We stayed one night with our children ages 8 and 10. Our children thought Aquila was magical and thoroughly enjoyed the facilities and their time with the animals. Food was good with plenty of variety and very friendly waiting and serving staff. All in all a great experience however a few improvements can be made: 1) There were a lot of flies at the lunchtime buffet which were enjoying the uncovered cakes and puddings. Please cover the food to minimise this. 2) Blankets should be provided on the morning safaris. 3) Safari guests should be requested to turn off/disable bleeping/shutter noises on their camera and electronic equipment. There are lots of senses used to enjoy the African bush including listening to birds, animals communicating with one another and the sounds of elephants treading the earth. Electronic sounds completely ruin this! 4) The pool water is extremely cold! Any chance of getting some heating?"

"Great room but some way from main area "

"Hotel very nice. Pool cold in March (not heated). Room dark due to bushes shielding insight. Restaurant so-so. Breakfast awkward - no buffet, you have to wait 20 min for some bread. Nice location though."

"Perfect, well recommended "

"Big room with many thoughtful features and a great breakfast. The hotel has two pools (one heated) and a fabulous onsite restaurant (fine dining quality). We made use of the free shuttle to ferry us to the wine tram. "

"There is no towel rail in the bathroom so you have wet towels in the morning- no Fridge in the room so you can keep nothing cold - the coffee machine is so slow and the pour so poor - I chose to drink hot chocolate but it was not replaced - the breakfast was average and service slow - for me not great "

"Comfortable, new and modern property with great location and lots to do. "

"Gorgeous estate about an hour from Capetown. Top of the line amenities, lodging and excellent restaurants. Sunset views, vineyards and mountains. Staff was very well trained and no nickel and diming . Quiet and peaceful stay after a few hectic days in Capetown. Highly recommend. "
