    Quirky and sophisticated! The Yellow Aloe is the kind of place that touches the soul. Not just oasis of calm but a botanical garden of delight! Everywhere you look, you can sense the love and care behind every detail: the sumptuous breakfast; the sink-in-able beds; the crystal clear swimming pools; the landscaped footpaths with their secret corners. The staff clearly love working with Cheryl - and Cheryl genuinely cares about all of her guests.

    Unique stay, small and relaxing, and so very helpful. Very client focused, with smiles. The sounds of trickling water on a hot day are welcome.

    We did ask the cleaner to remove the cobwebs from the "lampshade" in the lounge. Even showing her, she did not seem to understand our request.

    x1 breakfast pack requested and provided - very substantial and appropriate for a (hot) day's walking at Sevilla. Breakfast at the hotel was very good. Rooms were very comfortable. Just one air con remote though which was a bit awkward for 2 room occupancy and different air con preferences.

    The room was a bit small with few plugs. The hotel is a bit old-fashioned.

    The location was good in the center of Clanwilliam. The hotel is romantic with a nice garden with many fountains and trees. Breakfast was excellent. The service was outstanding. High value for money.

    Staff weren't the greatest, recommended a restaurant to us for dinner (not many choices in town) for us to find it was closed over Christmas, feel like they should know these things in a small town. Staff generally not very personable.

    Beautiful gardens, relaxing location, good breakfast! Good base to explore the Cederberg from.

    What a charming guesthouse, set in a beautiful shaded garden. It was not my first visit as I had popped in on a couple of occasions before for tea/lunch, but my first stay-over. Friendly hosts, a lovely pool to cool off, and the breakfast was ample and delicious.

    we were invited for a glass of wine upon our arrival; when checking out we were charged Rand 190, about Euro 10; this is more than the cost of a bottle of this same wine at the best restaurant in Clanwilliam; very disappointing and took off some of the joy (not for the money but just for being invited and then having to pay an excessive amount)

    great breakfast at the terrace overlooking the garden

    Nothing really to dislike.

    Michel & Cheryl were lovely hosts. The room was clean and comfortable, a little bit dark inside but that is because of the build of the old property. The garden was like an Aladdin's cave, lots of quirky ornaments dotted here and there and beautiful plants, it was lovely and peaceful. Joseph looked after us and served delicious breakfasts which were on the terrace overlooking the garden. Cheryl also suggested we went to 'The Sevilla Rock Art trail' and we thoroughly enjoyed it, a stunning drive and a lovely walk. We enjoyed our stay.
