    outdoor spa
    limited breakfast options

    The outdoor spa on our balcony offered breathtaking views over the vineyards, making for a perfect evening retreat.

    The breakfast options were limited. if you’re not a fan of yoghurt or muesli, you’ll need to find alternatives nearby.

    vineyard views
    cozy fireplace
    spacious lounge

    The setting amongst the vineyard is beautiful! The fireplace kept us cozy on cold nights, and the spacious lounge was perfect for relaxing. Our King Suite was super comfortable, and having a restaurant on site was a bonus. The staff was really friendly and helpful.

    stunning vineyard views
    friendly staff
    ample breakfast options
    tricky entrance

    Perfect escape in the valley 🌄

    We had an absolute jol here, the views over the vineyard were lekker and so peaceful! The brekkie left in the fridge was more than enough, loved the fresh juices and homemade muesli. The staff were friendly and super helpful, made our stay even better!

    Only downside was that it was a bit tricky to find the entrance at night, but once we got in, it was all good.

    plastic mattress
    loud noise

    the bed was an absolute joke with a plastic-backed mattress protector that screamed cheap motel, and don't even get me started on the 'party house' nearby—loud music and yelling all night! it woudl ve been nice to actually get some prompt service when complaining, maybe an upgrade, but alas, just couldn’t get that kind of attention here.

    I really loved the huge spa bath on the balcony and the delicious breakfast options left in the fridge. Just wished the bathroom fan was quieter. Would definitely return!

    spacious room
    beautiful balcony
    limited breakfast options

    comfortable stay but breakfast could improve

    The room was large with distinct areas, making it feel spacious. I appreciated the cozy living area with armchairs and a lovely balcony overlooking the vineyard, which added a touch of relaxation to my mornings. The well-equipped bathroom met all my needs, contributing to a pleasant experience.

    The breakfast options were somewhat limited, which left me searching for alternatives nearby.

    massive spa bath
    comfy bed
    great breakfast views
    limited snack options

    The spa bath was a highlight!

    We spent a night in the spa suite and it was fab! Massive spa bath was my fave part. The room had everything, super comfy bed, nice decor, and even two air cons. Eating breakfast on the deck was a chill way to start the day. Only wish the snack bar had more options.
