My husband and I escaped the hustle and bustle of a Joburg for a romantic Valentines weekend Friday to a hidden gem, Karkloof, just an hours flightfrom Joburg? From the moment that Kenny picked us up at the airport, we knew that we were in for a world-class treat. We were greeted with home-made lemonade on arrival and, little did... More

Wonderful hospitality, great accommodation, as much spa as you can take and good food all for a set price. Thai specialists on tap, game rides, viit to the waterfall and fantastic surroundings. A truly all round experience.

We spent four days at this location. Everything was excellent, and we are generally difficult to please. Service is great, ability to relax and enjoy the environment is excellent and one has a feeling of wellbeing; very limited number of other guests while we were there (it's not cheap, but worth every penny). Stay in chalet 4.

Our two night stay was unforgettable. How does one improve on perfection? Each and every aspect, from the accommodation to the food to the setting, to the service to the spa facilities was world class and better. I can highly recommend this to anyone looking for that special place and time.
