This hotel was very cozy. It had a romantic vibe. The decor was great and the food was amazing. I would stay here again. 10/10

Greats little paradise in Swartberg Mountains. Simple but all you need and good quality.

There is no wifi in the rooms which I think needs to be more clearly advertised. It wouldn’t normally be a huge problem but there was bad weather during our stay and meant we had a lot of downtime but weren’t able to plan ahead as much for the next day. There is also loadshedding but they provide candles etc in the room.

A lovely concept for a quiet retreat on a wine farm. A lot of thought and care had gone into the decor of the rooms which are beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the outdoor bath and shower, sadly the bad weather meant we couldn’t use the pool. Lots of nice little touches like the bottle of wine on arrival, bath bombs, slippers, candles etc. we ate in the restaurant which was also delicious!

All brilliant

The hotel is situated in a valley surrounded by mountains, vineyards and grazing Wagyu cattle. It is a magical position in the Klein Karoo. The villlas are beautifully decorated and the attention to detail is really great. Lee was very attentive and very efficient. The breakfasts were beautifully laid out and delicious. The restaurant served the most delicious wagu beef I have ever tasted. This is definitely a place for beef eaters!

Nothing about the property - it was all wonderful

Very peaceful and relaxing settings. Exceptional attention to detail and thoughtful touches in the villa. The outdoor plunge pool was delightful after a long drive and the outdoor bath and shower was a bonus. Great breakfast to start the day.

Property was lovely. New staff who seemed to lack training and direction which meant slightly disappointing levels of service overall.

Perfect overnight stop in a beautiful location. Lovely room.

Although dinner on the first night was excellent, we were the only guests eating, and staying three nights we chose to eat out for that reason (and few options on the menu). Maybe not a good place for vegans.

A very stylish villa with a small private plunge pool situated in this idyllic wine & Wagyu beef estate with a backdrop of mountains. Great location to explore Oudtshoorn (25 mins), the Cango caves & drive over the incredible Swartberg Pass. The showers (both inside & outside) were excellent, and load-shedding didn’t cause a problem as we were informed about times. Loved meeting the adorable dogs!

Only a detail but the mattresses were quite hard, thus not very comfy for us.

Amazing accommodation with wonderful staff and great service. We had a fantastic 2 nights and loved every single thoughtful detail in our villa. From the little welcome toy for our kid, the bottle of wine to the different lights that were placed throughout the rooms during load shedding. The meals we had for dinner and breakfast were fantastic - best food we had during our whole trip.

We said we'll be back! Second visit and the villa was perfect: Well appointed and comfortable. The complimentary Chardonnay was amazing and the small plunge pool refreshing after a long drive. The staff is very friendly and The Marbled Wagyu Restaurant serves exceptionally good food - thank you for accommodating us vegetarians. De Kombuys is a beautiful farm with exceptional views and conveniently close to the Cango Caves.

Nothing that I can think of.

What was there not to like about De Kombuys? The tranquility and the great location surrounded by the mountains? The intimate setting and the great personalized service and care by the staff? The high quality of all meals? The attention for detail in the nicely designed villa's? Congratulations to De Kombuys owners and staff for this unique package which makes it a destination rather than a stop on the way to a destination.

We stayed at The Kombuys for 3 nights and it was fantastic! The breakfast and diner were delicious. The location is amazing, it is so quiet and beautiful there. It is very close to the Swartbergpass and the Cango Caves, so that is perfect. The staff was very friendly and kind and we absolutely enjoyed our stay at The Kombuys!
