This was our first hotel we stopped at after a long day of traveling to the country. The hotel is gorgeous and the whole place feels relaxing, quiet and peaceful. From our large and well decorated room we loved watching the bird life and even spotted a family of hippos. The food was delicious and it was lovely to sit out on the water during the day and inside the property in the evening (we visited in August). We hired a car and there is so much to explore from the local area. We would have stopped another couple of days if we could.

It was very nice, except for the breakfast bill of R175. I have ordered 1 slice of toast, 1 egg and a small cheese griller. I could not believe it...

Beautiful and peaceful setting, lovely garden and view. Staff are friendly, very accommodating and helpful. You can dine indoors or outdoors right on the lake's edge. Food was good and the dinner menu had nice choices and was quite tasty. Perfect get away for couples and close to numerous tourist attractions in Sabie, Graskop, Hazyview and game drives at the Kruger National Park.

Schönes und modern, sowie geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Zimmer mit Terrasse direkt am See, in welchem zirka fünf Flusspferde leben. Tolles und großes Bad. Sehr höfliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Sehr leckeres Abendessen zu fairen Preisen. Zufahrtsstraße ist sehr holprig.

Superbe emplacement sur un lac et proche des entrées Numbi et Phabeni du parc Kruger. Dîner de qualité pour un prix raisonnable. Chambre très confortable. Prévoir des boules quies si vous n'êtes pas habitués aux bruits de la nature.
