    Chalets are really very spacious and modern, equipped with everything one needs. We didn't know what to expect as there are not many photos on booking.com, but the chalets really exceeded all expectations. Huge terasse leading to a big garden. Great views, very fast reliable internet, big clean pool. Nice staff. Really nothing to complain about, it's a great place to stay.

    The chalet was not very clean, curtains very dirty, especially the bottom part of all the curtains. The carpet in the sitting room area old, burn marks on it. Very dated and needs a revamp.

    Super location. Bed was comfortable, chalet spacious.

    The accomodation was dirty, we had rain and water came under the door and flooded the place, tones of cobwebs, dirty walls, the place was serviced but the cleaner didn’t even take out the bin and the fridge didn’t work, however maintenance manager did replace the fridge after accusing us of changing the settings which we didn’t, the property as a whole needs maintenance and not all the facilities were working. Overall it was quite a disappointment we checked out early.

    The staff were friendly and exceedingly helpful, and the food at the local restaurant was excellent. The resort golf course provided much entertainment to us non-golfers. The resort also boasts a lovely spa with well trained staff, who seem to really have a heart for what they do.

    The chalet (no 10) has been beautifully upgraded and has a stunning view of the Amphitheater. The entire resort and golf course are immaculately maintained and contain a wide variety of mature indigenous plants. A real winner: we will be back!

    That there were only 2 of each crockery and cutlery item in the kitchen. When you are a coffee fanatic you are always washing the mugs.

    The attention to detail both in the chalets as well as the whole resort. Gardens lush and beautiful. Bird life, views of the river and the mountains, hearing the cow bells and call of the herd men. Having no load shedding was a huge plus! Chalets have all you need, are comfortable with good quality linen on the beds.

    The chalets were not cleaned properly. It was especially noticeable in the bathrooms with brown stains in the toilet and the discoloration of the shower tiles due to lack of cleaning. When observing the cleaning staff, I didn't notice them with cleaning materials.

    Lovely location with amazing views

    I am a solo traveler without a car. I couldn’t go anywhere and had very limited things to do. This resort is for families with transportation, not solo travelers.

    The view was beautiful although it was unfortunate there was a road in front of my chalet plus lots of cars parked, obstructing the view. I had thought I was getting a full on unobstructed view.
