10/10 Excellent
"Beautiful location in the forest, peaceful and very relaxing surrounded by giant trees. Perfectly designed gardens with lovely clean pool and a zip line for the kids. Thereโ€™s an English pub style bar which is very well stocked including snacks. The restaurant is superb, best food Iโ€™ve found in 11 years of visiting Eswatini. Breakfast has everything you could possibly imagine and more, selection of homemade breads is soooo good. Lunches and dinners are similarly on another level. For me though, the staff shine through. Absolutely lovely kind helpful and engaging. For a peaceful relaxing stay with great food and surroundings, there is nothing finer in Eswatini "
