Very relaxing, good sleep after.

All units come with a patio with garden views, a kitchenette with a fridge and a microwave, and a private bathroom with shower. A toaster and kettle are also provided. Absolutely loved the cottage. It provided everything we needed and it was central to everything. The garden was outstanding in the morning with a cup of coffee watching the birds. 10 out of 10. Can’t wait to go back

The rooms were cozy and comfortable, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring. We even got to see girafs and antelopes while having our morning coffe in the back yard. But the real highlight was the food! They oragized a barii for us, and tought of every detail so that we could taste the most tradicional dishes in the área. Every meal was a delicious treat. We can't wait to return and experience this again!

Providing river views, African Safari Lodge in Grahamstown provides accommodation, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and barbecue facilities. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. The last 3,5km from the entrance gate to the lodge are pretty adventurous, but once you are there, you will enjoy stunning views of the dam and green hills. We enjoyed the tranquility - a perfect place, if you just want to relax. You can order food, which they bring to your place. But we decided for self catering, as the kitchen is fully equipped (from stove to microwave and fridge). WiFi was good and we loved the terrace for the views! Driving to the gate in the mornings we saw some antilopes, many warthogs and a herd of buffalos.

Situated in Jeffreys Bay with easy access to the beach, Surf Lodge South Africa features a balcony with panoramic ocean view.

The lodge offers an outdoor pool and a hot tub. Guests can learn how to surf or get guiding lessons. This is one of my favorite places in South Africa. The position of this hotel, right on the best beach of Jeffreys Bay, allows visitors the luxury to walk barefoot (50 m) from their room to the Ocean. And what a spectacular sunrise from the balcony! The atmosphere at the Surf Lodge is very jolly and relaxed at the same time, and they offer plenty of activities for their visitors (surfing but not only that). Definitely not my last visit :-)
