    The kitchen utensils are a bit limited. But manageable. The kiosk has limited supplies.

    Kids activities are great! Really nice warm pool and rock climbing. Very nice restaurant!

    If you can make people choose the activities and include them on the package, so that when e pay we pay for everything at once.

    We went to Kiara to celebrate our 21 years of marriage anniversary, we had plans for Saterday unfortunately we had to cut our vacation and rush after receiving a call that our son is in hospital, he I injured on his neck and spine.

    Wi-fi was the problem because it disconnected us when we were from the mountain and we were never re-connected for 2 days even though staff from reception tried to help us with it. The yard of room 77 and others near it were not clean as they tree branches all over. There should be a sign near the dam that can guide us when we want to go for a swing because we got lost.

    Facilities were very cheap.staff was amazing.food was good.

    The pillows inside the pillow cases were not looking pleasant. Maybe the use of pillow protectors could help.

    Everything was perfect. Great service at the reception. The units were 100% clean from the kitchen, bathrooms to the bedrooms and even the balcony. The restaurant offers delicious fresh food. Excellent service. Oh and the complimentary spa treatment was a really lovely way to be welcome to the facility. The spa treatments I booked were really good.

    Stay was good but the late check out charges disappointed me. They charged me extra for 30 minute.

    They charged me extra for late checking for 30 minutes which they could have spared. The checking timings are late and the checkout timings are too early which is not accepted at all. If guest check-in late then he they can be given at least 30/40 minutes extra to check out. It was not a big deal at all.

    The Property was really nice with all Amenities like Restaurants, Pool, Entertainment, adventure, Restaurants and Bat e.tc. Its a big property very close to golden gate national park where you can hike, horse ride and other adventure activities.

    Because the place is big i would recommand a shuttle for local travels like from room to retaurant or reception. I would recommane you have Phone in the rooms for room services

    The property has everything i need in 1 place, pool, spa, Gym, reataurant, games. The pool hot is hot. Jaqusee. The place is wow. I cant keep talking about it. Even the pictures i posted on social media, people cant stop asking where is that place. Keep up the great job guys you guys are excellent

    People having difficulty in climbing steps, must just bear in mind that there are steps and no elevator.

    The 1 bedroom flat is comfortable and spacious with an awesome big balcony with braaier. The big swimming pool and the Spa is so relaxing. The restaurant serves a delicious cheese fondue and also do wine tasting.
