We had Breakfast at a table overlooking the Vaal Dam and it gave a feeling of peace and tranquility, as if in a holiday resort. The Hosts are extremely friendly and kind and made us feel at home.

Daniel and Martin were exceptional hosts, wearing their heart on their sleeves, warm and authentic. Facilities and property beautiful, the art and decor breathtaking.

Reviewed Aug 31, 2026It's hard to put in words. The Place might be called a guesthouse but this doesn't describe the way you are recieved. This isn't your usual experience! I'd call it staying with friends you never knew you had. Daniel and Martin not only try to make you feel comfortable, they make the experience incredible! Daniel will see to it that your breakfast is taylored to your needs and satisfying. Martin will see to it that you get all the informations you need to explore Parys and the surrounding atractions. Besides the owners care the Place shines with original artwork and every comfort you might want to experience during a romantic getaway or a prolonged stay.

Potholes in the area - you need to drive carefully. The property also borders the Vaal River, and there are some loiterers there that made us cut our walk short.
Everything was ready and very clean and neat. The hosts were finominal. The breakfast was absolutely delicious.
