Reviewed Aug 18, 2026The property is exactly as per the photos, beautiful and the animals sure played their part and showed up.
The gas braai and fireplace is a good, and my favourite feature was definitely the outdoor shower and my partner enjoyed her baths in the beautiful tub. The villa is beautifull and spacious with great furniture finishes.
There is an alarm that was beeping throughout the night every 30min or so and its loud and it made it difficult to get a good sleep and there are no instructions on how to mute it. The hosts didn't respond to my messages I only got text from then when it was time to check out.
The check out time is 10 am and guess what at 10am the host was knocking at the door which is unnecessary and feels like you being kicked out. Even hotels will only send reminder few min after check out not at exactly check out time. The neighbour also came across as bit racist.

I think they need to update the instructional video, especially for the braai area and fireplace. The person explaining does not provide enough detail about which buttons to press or what needs to be switched on, which can be confusing for guests.

Reviewed Jan 21, 2026Struttura molto suggestiva, moderna e immersa nel verde. Doccia all’esterno molto bella.
Purtroppo è stato difficile raggiungerla a causa della pioggia. I proprietari si sono resi disponibili ad accompagnarci con la loro jeep. Suggerimento: consiglio di aggiungere tende oscuranti alle finestre (che una persona può decidere se tenere su o giù) per una maggior privacy e senso di sicurezza.

Reviewed Dec 25, 2025The bed was very comfortable and allowed for a good night’s sleep. There was convenient parking available on the property, which made arriving and leaving easy. The outdoor area was spacious, with a barbecue area and a pool, offering plenty of room to relax and enjoy the stay.
Upon arrival, the accommodation did not seem properly prepared. The gas bottles were empty and had to be changed by us, and the electricity was not working, so we had to turn the power back on ourselves. Unfortunately, no one came to assist us, which we found unacceptable given the price range of the property. There were many insects in the area, and the house appeared unfinished, almost as if it was still under construction. The access road to the property is extremely rough and not suitable for a regular car — our rental car scraped multiple times while reaching the accommodation. The pool was very dirty and had to be cleaned by us by manually turning it on. The barbecue did not function properly and required constant adjustments with gas and fire, which felt unsafe. Additionally, the Wi-Fi did not work at all during our stay, and the issue could not be resolved.

The host can improve on the check-in info. If they can't be at the property to show us around... They should at least send all the info that we might require as guests, to avoid unnecessary back and forth. We took ice cold shower on our check out, reported the issue to the host and there was no response. My pillows also had a funny smell.
Oh wow, what a perfect place to unwind and create that strong bond with your partner.
