Cottonwood Guesthouse Oasis

Anton the Host was very friendly and accommodating, it was very close to the spar and other restaurants. The bed was super comfortable the air conditioning was a god send. Was a great stay, and there is a pool with braai facilities.

the only thing i can mention is that some of the plugs in the room didnt work.

Not now.

The place is basically unattended. Hard to get help. No one at reception. Even other guests were complaining about unavailability of the owner or admin. Definitely not going back again.

The size and cleanliness was perfect

I was disappointed that couldn't swim due to the pool was green. I have still not received my Invoice for my stay 6 days later and numerous phone calls. Regards

Close to the mall

Nothing

The room was very clean and smelled amazing. The stuff was extremely helpful and sweet. A 10/10 experience. If you’re looking for something cozy, warm and homely, I highly recommend this place!

The space was comfortable and the area was good Walking distance to stores and restaurants

I am not usually one to leave a negative review but when we arrived at the property no one was there to let us in. We had driven for 7 hours and were tired but called , hooted and emailed for 20 minutes before someone finally answered the phone and then made their way to the property from somewhere else. We were let in but no accommodation was ready for us . We were sent to one room and then moved to another after we had begun to settle in. This property was booked because we really wanted to have a gym to use. The gym is there but very very rough. The treadmill is a death trap held up by stones so I needed to run on the road instead and the equipment was rough and clearly not used or taken care of well as shown by the layers of dust and dirt on everything. The manager/owner was in and out at all hours and parked his car right in front of our door. We were woken up multiple times. He was nice but…..

Super friendly staff that made sure we were taken car of.

Nothing.

Reception from the time when we called to our arrival time.

The room wa spacious and clean and very homely. The outdoors were exceptional.

The staff are very friendly- Adriaan made our stay worthwhile. I loved the pool area and braai area the most. The rooms are also clean & well-kept.

None

Only the friendly reception

The carpets in the room is filthy and stained. Smelled like an animal peed in the room and it was never cleaned. Big yellow stain next to the right side of the bed. Towels did not smell fresh, shower head is semi-blocked. Water in shower is hot, next moment cold.

What I like was da owner's friendliness, willingness & patience. A lot happened b4 I could sleep der, cauz I slept der a months after my booking, cauz on da day of my booking der was a bit of a mix up. Bt da owner is a very friendly & accommodating person.

According to booking.com & da reason I booked dat place, it was saying breakfast included, bt when I get da place, der was no longer breakfast. So I don't know where miscommunication came from.

Location was ideal. Rooms were comfortable unfortunately the toilet was not working and I had to request help to try and fix itNext day they moved me to another location. Water in geyser was cold 🥶.

Like your setup can be very nice

The staff and landlord was very friendly and easy to approach, the facility is worth the recommended or expected price, not forgetting the location is in a greater vicinity and easy to locate.

Need to get overhead canvases for cars that aren't having garage parking

Excellent location Room was clean and neat

There was only 2 towels in a family room booked for 3 persons, and the towels were very smelly, could not use it!

The location

It was filthy! There were even bugs climbing on us from the roof. Someone’s braids was aside one of the beds.

Property is very well set out and maintained. Great facilities

I loved the atmosphere and being surrounded by the trees and the staff was very friendly.

Lovely pool, coffee and tea supplied.

The place was comfortable overall, but it could benefit from some maintenance and a bit more attention to detail. The shower needs attention, and the sliding door to the room doesn’t close properly.

Good location and friendly staff.

The aircon is not working good and is noisy. There is also a pump system behind the room that kicked in every 30sec. It is very irritating during the night.

The beds are very comfort. The place is very clean and located close to all amenities

Room did not have kitchen

We had a great stay! Would definitely stay here again!

A Very relaxing yard. A great host.

The property was very pretty and quaint with pleasant greenery

The first evening our direct next door people had people over and they spoke audibly the WHOLE night . Then the overseer decided to do maintenance work at 2:30 on a Saturday afternoon without prior notice. Can’t say I appreciated it as well as when he was questioned about it, he shrugged it off saying that he was fixing a pipe. People actually book to rest during road tripping.

Good location, very friendly and accommodating people!

Slightly tired but explains the value for money.

The room was very big and well equipped. The swimming pool was a big bonus with my 2 year old.

Very helpful host, comfortable and clean rooms,fine attention to detail, a personal touch and thoughtfulness. A very pleasant stay.

Everything was proper, good value for money

They need to add Mats in the bathroom and on the bed side

Clean..Comfortable

Location

The bed was very comfortable

It wasn't very clean Moth ball smell Very little utensils to make food with not a sharp knife to cut

The host was very friendly and made us very comfortable

Location

It was terrible

The guesthouse is not far from town

They have a WhatsApp number, but they dont respond on time .so communication is terrible. Breakfast was basic and toast was burnt..

Beds were comfy location wasn't too far from the highway

The shower was leaking and the water would get extremely hot and then completely ice cold . It's extremely dangerous as it doesn't stabilise at the right heat setting.

Thank you Anton, for being a superb host. My kids and I enjoyed our stay.

Everything was great.

Room was lovely and we had a comfortable night’s stay. The guesthouse also has great facilities and always happy to assist. Love that the guesthouse is pet friendly

Nice clean room. Bed amazing.

No water at all in the morning to shower or flush toilets.

Everything from the communication before arrival, warm welcome when arriving and access to the pool area and garden was exceptional. Definitely felt like a home to us. Will definitely extend our stay the next time we come back. Highlight recommendation the place.

There is absolutely nothing not to like about the place, we thought insects would be an issue given the greenery around the area but that was totally under control with the insect repellent spray that comes with the room.

The bed was comfy.

There was a mix up with our room and there were no one at the reception, so we waited for almost a hour for a room, because the room we were supposed to be in was already taken. They upgraded us to another room, but didn't felt like an upgrade as the room was quite dirty, the dustbin still had trash in, the minibar in the fridge was empty, no coffee and milk and sugar was stocked, the shower was dirty, and there were cockroaches everywhere with a dirty cloth in the kitchen basin.

Price and proper parking, chairs and table outside, inside aircon, microwave, etc.

People were talking loud at the pool area, still talking when I decided to leave after 4 in the morning. Very inconsiderate. As I made coffee in the morning, sugar, tea and coffee in the unit but no form of milk or powder milk at all. The unit had a pepper pot but funny enough no salt pot.

Great location and very nice and neat accommodation

There was no milk for the coffee 🥺

Environment

When I need breakfast they said no food

It very quite and cozy, also comfortable

Nothing

Good facilities and value for money. We were in town for a marathon and were accommodated with a late checkout so we could shower before driving back to Joburg which was greatly appreciated.

Top tier. My new go to place in Bloem.

The owner has a heart of gold

There is really nothing that I did not like

Spacious and clean

Roof was leaking

superfast confirmation quick checkin evrything as it should be .
