Provider-sourced guest reviews.
Beautiful place, very comfortable, excellent location.
No breakfast was served
Nothing I can think of
Beautiful accommodation. Super clean and amazing friendly service. Always feel so welcome at Travalia.
Not applicable
Good space and clean with all basic needs met. Staff very nice and efficient.
Beds were terribly hard and had a poor nights sleep because of it. Couch was also ridiculously hard.
This is an excellent place for an overnight stay on a long road trip. The accommodation was clean and comfortable.
Good breakfast. Quiet surroundings Efficient staff
No place to put a suitcase
Arriving and reception were 100% Then I was told that the dinner request I gave Martha: THERE IS NO RICE OR VEGGIES LEFT. IN REPLACEMENT, I CAN HAVE EITHER A SALAD, OR POTATO SALAD. IF TAKE BOTH, I HAD TO PAY R45.00 EXTRA. Reception, though, after I left my office to complain (copying your reception.) and give negative report, Reception let me know, " It was a MISUNDERSTANDING between her and Martha! Lamb shank, what was small and overcooked. rest was fine.
Provided a good braai meat and lit the fire.
Problem with bedding
The staff were extremely helpful and friendly and served us delicious lamb dishes for dinner. The room and bathroom was spacious and pristinely clean, with a very comfortable bed. There was shaded free parking, very good wi-fi, and we had a lovely short walk where we could appreciate the various springboks and flowers on the farm. We would have enjoyed the braai facilities is we had come prepared for that with the necessary utensils, and meat, having arrived late after the farm store was already closed, but the dinner made up for this lack of preparedness on our part. One could definitely stay for longer than one night to immerse oneself in the peace of the Karoo. The AC was unexpected and appreciated.
My personal preference would be a teapot in the room, and face towels in the bathroom.
Clean
Its quiet, lovely people, staff very obliging to assist. Careing. I had a braai pack waiting for me which was nice. I relaxed. I could bring my two pugs. Also petrol station is 3km important for long haul
Bring mosquito repellent. Or get some from reception.
Staff was very friendly and helpful. The place is clean and tidy. We had our dinner delivered to our cottage and it was exceptional.
Nothing not to like!
Really great stay, would have loved to have stayed longer
Very convenient during my drive to Cape Town. Good menu offering . I would suggest to try the LAMB CURRY Gate only opens at 5am so my start to Cape Town was later than would have liked, but gave me more time to rest. Hot shower and comfortable bed
There was an issue between Host and Booking.com to retrieve my payment. So I had to cancel on BOOKING.COM and pay resort directly. Took a couple of days to get my money from BOOKING.COM I feel the host should have taken this up with BOOKING.COM instead of asking me to pay again and wait days for my refund. Just didnt feel right...........
Clean, neat and modern
Place is good but facilities were disappointing at my visit.
Aircons & Heaters not working, and it was very cold.Tv Satelite signal was poor.
The whole place and setting. Brilliant stopover enroute.
I cant think of anything.
The setting, atmosphere and tranquility after a long drive was very pleasant.
Small request for some bathroom mats.
I booked for 6 people, paid for 6 people and there were only 5 beds.
Missing breakfast but the nearby pads tall is very very good.
Softer mattresses
Counter space limited and no small table to eat inside.
Venue nature
The little people at the shop No milktart Effect of meiringspoort closure
A must to stay ,just loved it
We regularly stay at Travalia on our way to Cape Town. We normally love staying here as the location is perfect. Our dinner this time was dry, tasteless and very disappointing. It was definitely not up to its usual standard.
Mainly the dinner. It was a cold night and the room felt very cold.
Everything
Nothing
We did not have breakfast. Stayed in a 2-bedroom cottage that was as neat as a pin with all the essentials needed. Being so cold the electric blankets was an absolute bonus. Dankie Travalia!! PS. and then the big surprise was the fact that they are Pet Friendly!!!
No wifi made it difficult - do not know if it was available.
It was neat and tidy.
The braai broodjies we ordered for R40 was just bread and no filling. However, we got refunded the following day but still would've been great to have it for our braai the previous night. We unfortunately arrived to late for us to query it.
Always a winner for a sleep over.Excellent dinner and friendly staff.
Nothing.
Clean, great restaurant, delicious food. Electric blanket. Its very cold in mid winter and was needed. Seating in room. We ate in restaurant. Braai BBQ option also looked good as they supplied meat salad and utensils. Milk in fridge
Lack of hooks and shelves to put things in bathroom. Small shower and no hand towel.
It is clean.
Such a huge establishment - not a cute farm stay.
Very clean. Friendly staff. Good location. Food was amazing.
It was OK and no loud noise
The warm sleep
Location was perfect and the accommodations is comfortable and had al that ones needs for a comfortable stop over.
The beds wasn't very clean, my daughter found a dirty pill holder under her pillow and I also had to dust out my bed before getting in as there was sand in my bed. Also the kettle in my unit did not work so I couldn't even have coffee before heading on the long road again. Lovely place but surely if someone booked in advance these are things that needs to be seen to before a client checks in later than check in times.
Cleanliness, Comfort and safe
No filter coffee in Room
Everything
Location was good for our specific purpose. The dinner was very good.
Everything was good.
Freindly personnel, warm food delivered to chalet. Warm blankets.
Beautiful neat and spacious
Bed was very hard and couches not comfy. Would prefer a piece of secluded lawn for the pooches.
Staff was friendly, bed was comfortable with good size room and shower. Dinner by a fireplace was cozy and comforting. The food was tasty. Clean and pretty setting. Nice braai facilities.
They did not do breakfast, only dinner.
Friendly staff Clean unit Excellent food
Because of the electric blanket and aircon, I could keep warm. There were also coffee making facilities with coffee and milk provided.
There was no wifi (unless you paid extra) or hairdryer.
Room was lovely and spacious with a lovely bathroom on suite. Bed was very comfortable and we sleep so well. Location is quiet and peaceful. Perfect overnight location for traveling from Johannesburg to Cape Town. Also ideal if traveling with pets
Table where the coffee station was on too small
The room was clean and cozy and service good
I would recommend that the add cerial bowls in the rooms and spoons
Great food and easy access to the location.
Breakfast : not applicable, but we got awesome freshly baked pies from the farm stall for the road ... very delicious !! Real value for money !! The dinner ... delivered to our room ... was superb and on the time ... lamb shank and lamb neck ... with awesome veggies and savoury rice ... and amazing sauce !! The beauty of the mountains at sunset and sunrise was breathtaking ... the quietness and tranquility was inspiring. A warm bed and room (with all amenities) was really appreciated after 800 km on the road. Our 2 furry friends were secure on the patio and secluded garden ... beautifullly maintained. Extreme cleanliness seemed to be the norm !! Very friendly staff !! Attention to detail, since booking ... and follow-ups !!
Information whether tap water is safe to drink ... but then ... we shoud have enquired. Wi-Fi availabilty ?? Should be part of checking in, whether or not ...
Dis skoon en netjies
Die warm kombers en nie mooi uitleg van plek
We loved that it was just next to the road, but far enough not to hear the traffic. It is very convenient, rooms are spacious, lovely large walk in shower with amazing hot water, aircon, TV with dstv, electric blanket that was amazing during the cold and rainy night. We ordered food and had the most amazing lamb curry that was served with yellow rice, pumpkin fritter and cauliflower and broccoli with a white sauce. Food quality was exceptional. Travalia comes highly recommended for all Travellers to and from Cape area. Safe and secure parking next to your unit, security on duty, fenced and very safe.
Absolutely nothing
The fact that I could have dinner on the property was tops.
Very clean ,very friendly staff
EVERYTHING
NOTHING
All
Very friendly and helpfull staff. Very nice warm meals could be pre ordered.
No hairdryer in the room
The rooms are superb, clean and well located. The lamb shank was outstanding!
The pillows were like rocks. These could be replaced
Travalia, nestled just outside Beaufort West near the iconic Three Sisters, is a true hidden gem in the heart of the Karoo. Set on a peaceful working farm, it offers an authentic escape where wide open spaces, stillness, and warm hospitality come together perfectly. From the moment you arrive, you’re welcomed like family. The staff are exceptional—friendly, attentive, and genuinely invested in making your stay special. Their kindness and down-to-earth nature reflect the spirit of the Karoo, creating an atmosphere that feels both relaxed and deeply personal. The food is an absolute highlight. Every meal is thoughtfully prepared, hearty, and full of rich, home-style flavour. Whether it’s a traditional Karoo dinner or a generous farm-style breakfast, the quality and care put into the dishes are unmistakable. It’s the kind of food that comforts and satisfies after a long journey on the road. The setting itself is breathtaking in its simplicity—endless plains, big skies, and the quiet beauty that makes the Karoo so unique. Travalia captures this essence perfectly, offering a place where you can truly unwind, reconnect, and experience genuine South African farm hospitality. If you’re travelling through the Karoo, Travalia is not just a stopover—it’s a destination worth experiencing.
The place is exceptionally clean and a nice half way stop to our holiday destination
Every good
Everything! The property was beautiful, and the lesser light pollution made for exquisite stargazing!
Excellent staff and very nice
Relaxing, neat and clean
The food was excellent. Room was not bad.
The dark towels. The pillows was not great at all.
Safe parking for our vehicle and comfortable clean room. I love their home cooked meals.
Ruim slaapkamer met alles wat mens nodig het. Rustig en stil met pragtige groot bome om onder te kuier. Aangename ondervinding. Baie oulike padstal.
Alles was reg
The accommodation was well kept and clean.
The meal in the restaurant was not good. The food was dry and overheated. The food was cold on a warm plate. The meal wasn't freshly cooked and we ate at 6 o'clock. The way it is served is not acceptable. Suggestion: prepare the veggies in a pot and keep it in the pot and let the guests dish up themselves. Veggies will not dry out and it creates a warm and homely atmosphere. You must start to think of a new way. The old way is no longer working. It was my 4th visit. We met some nice people in the restaurant
Location is excellent, fresh air in the karoo.
Beds is not comfortable and the shower water is very weak
Absolute everything!
Nothing!

What guests love
Areas to consider
Cleanliness
8.6/10Generally praised as very clean and 'neat as a pin' in multiple reviews, but some guests reported cleanliness lapses (dirty pill holder under a pillow, sand in bed) which lowered the score slightly.
Service
9.6/10Consistently noted as friendly and helpful staff — warm food delivered to chalets, prompt refunds (braai broodjie), and attentive personnel, supporting a high score.
Location
9.5/10Repeatedly described as a perfect, convenient stopover on the N1 and well‑situated for travellers; location is a strong positive across reviews.
Room Quality
8.6/10Rooms are described as comfortable, spacious and with helpful extras (electric blankets), but some guests reported issues: very hard beds, small showers, lack of hooks/shelves, and occasional non‑working kettle or cold rooms.
Amenities
8.9/10Good on amenities like restaurant, braai facilities, electric blankets, pet‑friendly policy and stocked fridge items; offset by missing wifi in some stays and lack of in‑room filter coffee for others.
Value for Money
9/10Most guests felt the stopover value was strong (comfortable, convenient, good food), with isolated issues (e.g., incomplete braai broodjie) but overall fair for an overnight Karoo stop.
Food and Beverage
9.2/10Food is frequently praised (excellent dinner, delicious food, amazing meals), though there are a few negative notes (one dry/tasteless dinner report and inconsistent breakfast availability).
Overall Experience
8.6/10Overall very positive repeat stays and many 'excellent' or 'never disappoints' comments, tempered by occasional dips in dinner quality, cleanliness lapses and the occasional lacking amenity, giving a slightly below‑top score.
Experience tranquil country-style decor in standard and luxury rooms or self-catering cottages, each with en-suite bathrooms and fans.
Spacious cottages and chalets with multiple bedrooms, private entrances, and kitchenettes make it ideal for family stays.
Dine at the on-site restaurant or use barbecue facilities, and explore local goodies from the farm shop.
