Breakfast was fantastic

− We were on NY night in Sante And there was nothing special There was no music or any entertainment The dinner was too early It was strange Because the hotel is small, you don’t see any people

Iana · RU · 2026-03-24

Superb. Relative to other hotels of this standard, great value.

10.0

Superb. Clean, impressive decor and clean healthy but tasty food..

esmeingers · LIVERPOOL, MERSEYSIDE, ENGLAND · 2026-03-19

Ein Wellness Hotel, dass man bei einem Südafrika Urlaub als 1.Station zum Stressabau buchen kann

8.0

Ein Wellness Hotel, dass wir bei jedem Südafrika Urlaub zum Stressabau für die 1. Woche buchen. Wir schätzen die sehr gesunde Ernährung und nutzen verschiedene Anwendungen.

− Leider sind die Zimmer und die Einrichtungen etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Es würde ihnen eine komplette Überarbeitung gut zu Gesicht stehen. Funktionen wie Toilettenspülung, Föhn funktionieren nicht immer. Stromanschlüsse nicht für Europäer geeignet.

superbe endroit a decouvrir absolument

9.0

Endroit magnifique et un service des plus pros . Personnel tres gentil et dispo ! Les installations sont superbes et tres propres.

Michel · CH · 2026-01-23

Would not return due to lack of other guests and the location, having to drive a long way on dirt ro

7.0

The Spa and facilities were great

− Lack of other guests. Had Dinner in the dining room on our own.

Ian · ES · 2026-01-22

Not recommended. It's all about money there.

1.0

Literally nothing

− In my opinion, my experience with this retreat was extremely disappointing and far below what I would expect from a property presenting itself as a high-end or luxury retreat.
