I recently stay for 12 days for business. After reading a few "bad" reports I was feeling a bit dubious about what to expect. Taking into account it's location, remote area of South Africa, I rate this as a great resort. My suite was on the golf course, fantastic views and short walk to the central facilities. After trying food... More

Rooms could do with some refurbishing, pool is not usable.... water dirty during several days of our stay. Staff and reception friendly. Food is average. Golf was an outstanding experience with giraffes, warthogs, impalas and baboons on fairways and hyppos and crocodiles in the water... Would come back especially in connection with golf...

I recently stayed at this hotel for 4 days and had previously stayed here in the past. The facilities and infrastructure had improved and the staff were kind and courteous. The pool and bar area is a great area to unwind and the recent addition of free Wi-Fi with your room allows the ability to mix your work with pleasure.... More

We are South African and booked this hotel as it was recommended for it's Golf Course. The once magnificant golf course has been neglected due to maintenance not being kept up with required equipment. The new owner apparently was only interested in expanding the accommodation but has left the construction half finished. The main original building is magnificent, but staff... More

Dear Louis and Team A very big thank you from myself and GAGE Specialists. You really went above and beyond, to supply a service that helped make the Golf Day and our Gala Dinner a huge success. The venue was well presented, the food was great, the waiters and service was excellent. Irene (peanut) and you ran the operation with... More

We were the first people to use the new dining room and extended pool bar - indeed, the finishing touches to the beautiful landscaping were still in progress. I loved the design of the place, and the attention to detail in the building and finishes. We had one of the self-catering rooms, just by the 12th tee, and were perfectly... More

We recently stayed for two nights at the Hans Merensky our second visit after a wonderful stay in 2004. Unfortunately we were given two rooms, one overlooking the back of the bar (which meant everyone could look in), the other overlooking the wall of an office. When we asked to change or upgrade, we were told without any checking, that... More
