Baie lekker gebly. Baie welkom gevoel. Amazing staff en eienaars.

Baie lekker gebly en die eienaars van die plek is fantastiese mense. Hulle het ons dadelik laat welkom voel en mooi na ons omgesien. Die plek is baie mooi en skoon en die diens is puik. Sal die plek vir enige iemand aanbeveel wat 'n gastehuis soek in Krugersdorp. Dit sluit die lekkerste ontbyt in, in die oggende. Thank you for the wonderful service and your passion for the project. You look after your guests. Thank you once again; we had a pleasant stay at Blue Sky Manor.

A pleasurable stay, comfortable room, great breakfast and wonderful hosts!

We had a wonderful stay at Blue Sky Manor. We live in Holland, grew up in SA, close to where the B&B is situated. The hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Had great conversations and laughs. The breakfast was delicious, the view was beautiful from all the terraces and from our room. The whole B&B is very well kept, clean and welcoming. We felt very safe as well, the area is nice and calm. The location is brilliant for those who want to visit the wildlife parks, botanical gardens, casinos and many malls. Would definitely recommend. Only at Blue Sky Manor .

Uitsonderlike 5-ster-verblyf.

Pragtige, netjiese gastehuis met die dierbaarste en hulpvaardigste eienaars. Ek en my dogters is op die hande gedra al het ons net een aand oorgeslaap. Als was super skoon en gerieflik en ontbyt met liefde gemaak. Sal enige tyd weer daar oorbly. Niks was te veel moeite vir die eienaars nie.

Lekker saam my familie gekuier, maar nie lekker gebly nie.

Ons was 'n groot familie met kinders van alle ouderdomme. Eienaars was behulpsaam tydens die bespreking, maar was baie ongeskik en nie gasvry nie. Baie kontrakteurs wat daar bly, soek stilte en die kinders het natuurlik by die swembad baljaar. Die braai geriewe is great, maar sluit geen eetgerei of enige braai toerusting in nie. Sou jy wou braai, moet jy alles saambring, insluitend ordentlike tafels vir opskep. Alhoewel die oorsig noem dat daar 'n kroeg is en 'n skemerkelkie geniet kan word, kan jy nie by hulle enige drank koop nie en is die kroeg slegs vir versiering. Die gastehuis het baie trappe en is nie vir meerjariges bedoel nie. Die kamers is klein en slegs vir oornag bedoel. Die ensuite badkamers het 'n baie lekker stort, maar die wasbakke is verskriklik klein. Daar is 'n gang voor die kamers waar ons gebly het wat die kamers baie donker maak deur die dag. Ideale blyplek vir kontrakteurs wat heeldag werk en in die middag 'n swem wil vat om af te koel. Kamers word nie daagliks skoon gemaak nie.

Had a good time with my family, but not a good stay.

We were a big family with children of all ages. Owners were helpful during the booking but were very inept and unwelcoming. Many contractors who stay there are looking for quiet and the children of course frolicked by the pool. The braai facilities are great, but do not include cutlery or any braai equipment. Should you want to barbecue, you must bring everything with you, including decent tables for scooping. Although the review mentions that there is a bar and a cocktail can be enjoyed, you cannot buy any drinks from them and the bar is for decoration only. The guest house has many stairs and is not intended for elderly people. The rooms are small and intended for overnight stays only. The ensuite bathrooms have a very nice shower, but the sinks are terribly small. There is a corridor in front of the rooms where we stayed which makes the rooms very dark during the day. Ideal place to stay for contractors who work all day and want to take a swim in the afternoon to cool off. Rooms are not cleaned daily.

Blue Sky Manor 's response

Dear Jaco,
Thank you for your mail; I shall try to clarify the points that you have raised.
In addition to the adults in your group, you asked whether four young children could sleep in the rooms on inflatable mattresses that you brought. The children were aged 7 - 10 years. Of course, we agreed; children are welcome at Blue Sky Manor.
At the time that you checked in, you were happy with the accommodation and the hospitality.
Then things changed.
Your children were repeatedly running in the house and making a noise. Blue Sky was hosting other guests at the time, who were enjoying the quiet tranquillity, and the Manager therefore politely asked you to stop the children's loud and disruptive behaviour inside the house.
After the Manager's request, your attitude changed. You still made no effort to control your children and allowed the bad behaviour to continue. This included children jumping on the balcony safety railings, itself a dangerous activity due to the steep drop. No discipline whatsoever.
Now let us address your list of complaints:
1. No braai equipment provided. Blue Sky is not self-catering, but we do provide braai cutlery, paper plates, cups etc. upon request. Guests have only to ask the Manager.
2. The bar is not open. This is true. We applied for a Liquor Licence more than twelve months ago, but have not yet received it.
3. The Guesthouse has many stairs. This is true; Blue Sky is located on a hillside, offering scenic views from the terrace.
4. The rooms and washbasins are small. This is subjective, and your complaint is the first that we have received in this regard. It could be that the mattresses occupied some of the available floor space. The rooms are intended for two adults only.
5. Passage lighting was too dim. This is true. The lights were on, but the dimmer switch had failed. The electrician has been booked to replace the faulty switch next week.
6. Rooms are not serviced daily. That is true. Our rooms are serviced every three days, but your stay was only two days.
In summary, we regret that we did not meet your expectations, but our House Rules clearly state that guests (or their children) may not disturb other guests.
