We stayed for three nights, there was six adults in our party. My wife and I stayed in a lovely two bed apartment by the breakfast room and the four others stayed in the two bed cottage next to the tennis court. When we arrived we were greeted by Lavinia, who is the Lodge manager. Lavinia was very welcoming and... More

When it is the back room in a pool house. DeKrall advertised a poolside suite with pictures of the pool but when we arrived they put us in the back room of a pool house. We would have preferred to stay elsewhere since they were a bit pricey for the room and I went there based on the photo. In... More

We spent two wonderful nights at De Kraal and were very pleased with everything. The Palm house cottage was spacious and clean. We particularly enjoyed exploring the gardens which are amazing - so much packed into the space, including pools, rock pools and swimming pool, hanging bridges, shady arbours, a boating lake, and fantastic vegetation. They were working on improvements... More

We were very surprised to wake up to beautiful mountain views and a wonderful breakfast after a very late arriving flight. The staff was very helpful when needed. The grounds were beautiful with a wonderful light hiking area behind the facilities. Our room had a great view of the mountains and valley across the pool. We will be visiting DeKraal... More

We stayed for three nights for a wedding nearby, and found the DeKraal lodge very peaceful, efficient and charming. The room was nice (although the bathroom was only OK). The rockpool was a highlight, and there is a second pool over the road which is a little warmer. The staff were extremely helpful and found us a local taxi driver.... More
