Great evening
Bettina and Michael were great. Even after an issue with the Hotels.com notification not coming to them, they still. Made us feel extremely welcome. Stunning location, farm feel, but really comfortable. Gorgeous, would love to return. Supper was simple but tasty

Thank you so much for your kind review and for staying with us. I know you paid into a virtual card once you had made the booking. It then comes automatically into my account on the day of your arrival but there was a hick up and the message I received was to contact the guest . It did get resolved though this morning and all is good. WE apologize for this inconvenience. Best wishes, Bettina

A little piece of paradise outside of Plett
Truly I have not experienced such hospitality in my life! Owners Bettina and Michiel, along with Leigh, Naison and Fynes make you feel like long lost family when you arrive and nothing is too much trouble - even surprising my son with a beautiful birthday cake at breakfast. It was our first but definitely not our last stay. The ocean views and hikes are absolutely breathtaking.

Heaven for horse lovers.
Amazing place with beautiful horses, upmarket lounge, with roaring fire. Also comfortable sitting area next to inside/outside dining area. Loads of horse statues,horseshoe decorations. Dinner available some nights. Excellent staff. Be warned there is a steep gravel road from the main airport road, but T'niqua is well signposted and is worth the effort.

We booked T’niqua Only for a night and we’re so upset we didn’t spend more time there. The most fabulous stay ever! Bettina was ever so warm and welcoming, the room was beautiful and luxurious and so well decorated and the staff were excellent! The whole property was simply gorgeous with stunning views and so well kept. Would highly recommend it! We were a family of 5 with 3 kids, 2 under 10s and they loved it. We went for a morning horseback hike and that was the highlight of the stay for the kids.

Quiet rural retreat
Very friendly staff with spacious rooms comfortable bed. Evening BBQ with all guests around a large table a very nice way to spent an evening. Only criticism is signage to get there. Location not in Satnav & signs off main road easy to miss and a bit ambiguous (on a junction but no indication which way to go). We guessed wrong and had to turn back further along the road). Don't be put off by that - well worth the trouble to find it. I would recommend this location for couples and those with infants.

We were upgraded for free to Stable No 4. This is a big ensuite family room with a double waterbed and two single beds and it has character. The downside was, we had planned for self-catering as we had booked a room with kitchen corner, microwave, hot plate etc. but Stable No 4 has just a kettle. Such 'upgrade' shouldnt be done without prior notice. We were given some croIn contrast to the description Wifi was only working in the communal area.

Het is ook mogelijk hier te dineren en het eten is heel erg goed voor een zeer schappelijke prijs, ook dacht de kok erg goed mee ivm de gluten allergie van mijn vriendin en maakte voor haar een aparte maaltijd klaar.

Wunderschöne Aussicht auf das Meer
Ein Ort zum Wohlfühlen. Unser Zimmer war in einem sehr guten Zustand. Es war sauber und die Einrichtung war passend zu der gesamten Ranch. Das gemeinsame Abendessen (Braai) hat die Erwartungen übertroffen. Einfach super lecker das ganze. Die Möglichkeit eines Ausrittes mit den Pferden haben wir ebenfalls genutzt und ist selbst für Anfänger zu empfehlen, da diese Tour mit Begleitung stattfand. Lediglich das Zeitmanagement lässt ein wenig zu wünschen übrig, daher auch der Punktabzug beim Service. Man soll hier bereits am Abend vorher die Wünsche für das Frühstück abgeben und eine Zeit drauf schreiben, wann man frühstücken möchte-die Idee ist wirklich super. Leider mussten wir dennoch eine halbe Stunde auf das Essen warten.
