Lodges in Western Cape

"Room and main lodge were lovely. Game viewing was slightly disappointing. Reserve is effectively broken into fenced sections with the lions in their own enclosure. Guide appeared a bit rushed at times. "

"Stunning bedroom views from this lodge and exceptional service and kind attitude from Shannon ! Food was also great. It’s an older lodge that has been upgraded with excellent bathroom fixtures and main bedroom lighting. Wifi is a little slow, early morning hot water taps need to run a bit before hot water arrives and the sliding partition in our room 2 needs to be replaced with a frosted glass door as the current wooden sliding partition is a little stiff to open . Otherwise an excellent choice...

"I have never gone on a safari and Sanbona exceeded my expectations! The staff was very friendly and the rooms were gorgeous. I would recommend our safari guide Josh to anyone. He was very knowledgeable. I would definitely come back. "

"The location of Buffelsdrift is beautiful which made the safari experience even more wonderful. Staff were warm, welcoming and the tent was gorgeous. A truly magical stay. "

"Basic safari hotel. Institutional catering. Unfortunately, the Safari vehicles were worn out and very uncomfortable. They had not replaced the shock absorber which made the drive very uncomfortable. Convenient to Cape Town, but clearly not the right bush for giraffes which had their heads permanently bowed due to lack of any trees."

"One of the most unique and amazing places we’ve ever stayed! Lovely resort of treehouses built in a remote setting with all the amenities you could need. The staff were all super friendly and could not do enough to help you was an absolute pleasure to have them there. Would recommend to anybody travelling on the garden route or staying in Plettenberg to stay here it would make an unforgettable memory. "

"We had a lovely stay at the Inverdoorn Private Game Reserve! Check in was a breeze, the meals were terrific, the room was clean and robes were terrific! The game drives were terrific and Kevin was an excellent guide and extremely knowledgeable. We got some terrific pictures of the wildlife! We would highly recommend. "

"It was fantastic. One of the best places we have stayed. Attention to detail, quality, service, food and of course the wine."

"A pleasant stay. Quite ridiculous though that your room only got free water on the first night!"

"This is a very beautiful hotel and has amazing safari grounds. Rooms are beautiful, clean and inviting. Overall very expensive for what you get and has a lot of hidden fees on arrival. It is a shame that things such as breakfast or activities are not included or discounted with the significant cost of a room per night. We paid approximately AU$1500 per night and only received the hotel room. Even arrival drinks come at a cost. The experiences such as the safari tour and horse riding were...

"It was wonderful. From beginning to end the service was impeccable. The accommodation is lovely. The surroundings and settings are amazing."

"Unbelievable stay. Very special location. Waves crashing at your feet. Wonderful staff. Impeccable restaurant. "

"A very spacious loft in a complex still in development. Great location, right off main street and very close to wine tram. Note there is no TV and some apartaments are 20 m away from keyboxes so they might not be so easy to find."

"The property was located in a wonderful nature area. It was very beautiful. The room was as expected. The dining experience at the property was average, food was substandard and service was okay. The receptionist who checked us in was and I quote a "gen z" She made a mistake with our room numbers. then the next day one of the staff members walked up to my husband while he was having lunch, in front of other guests, very loudly told him that he should have checked out hours ago. He was forced to...

"We loved our stay here. It was a great stopping point after doing Karoo National Park. It was clean and a piece of paradise. There were giraffes, impalas, countless birds and large tortoises throughout the property. You could walk anywhere on site and we felt very safe. We stayed in Chalet 2 and it had great beds, WiFi, AC in the room, hot shower and a stove top. We enjoyed this place and will be back! "

"Loved all of it. Guudes especially"

"Quirky hotel. Good service very clean, does not offer dinner but very good restaurants are nearby. Lots of uneven steps so not suitable for everyone. Enjoyed our stay"

"Schöne Blockhütte, aber sehr kalt in der Nacht! (Winter). "
