Fantastiese uitsigte en kos.

Die etes in die lodge se restaurant was regtig baie lekker. Die kos is geurig, vars en hulle bied 'n groot verskeidenheid aan. Die uitsigte van die huis is onverbeterlik. Asemrowend mooi.

Great views and food.

The meals in the lodge's restaurant were really very nice. The food is flavorful, fresh and they offer a great variety. The views from the house are unbeatable. Breathtakingly beautiful.

Crawfords is a wonderful holiday destination. Our happy place.

We have built such wonderful relationships with the Crawfords family over the years, including the staff who we know by first name. The coast is really spectacular and the food fantastic.

Beautiful location. Lovely and serene resort. Lots of activities.

The lodge is in one of the most beautiful locations in SA. The food is great. We had booked two rooms, one with sea view and the other with partial sea view. The front sea view rooms are beautiful and have been refurbished. The partial sea view room was dated and not the nicest I’ve seen. But we slept well and had a good time. I also liked the kids’ centre and activities.

Die plek kort aandag.

Ons was teleurgesteld. So mooi plek met sulke goeie ligging. Maar as die lugversorging nie werk nie, die bad nie dreineer nie, die WiFi nie werk nie en die buffetkos koud is, is dit nie die prys werd nie.

The place needs some attention.

We were disappointed. Such a beautiful place with such a great location. But the air-conditioning doesn't work, the bath isn't draining, the WiFi isn't working and the buffet food is cold, it's not worth the money.

Crawford's was baie professioneel, netjies en vriendelik.

Crawford's se diens was uitstekend. Hulle kos is heerlik en die diens was professioneel. Die kamer is netjies, skoon en die uitsig asemrowend. Crawford's was beslis elke sent werd en die beste akkommodasie vir 'n romantiese wegbreek. Ons sien beslis uit om weer na Crawford's terug te keer.

Crawford's was very professional, neat and friendly.

Crawford's service was excellent. Their food was delicious and the service was professional. The room is neat, clean and the view amazing. Crawford's was definitely worth every cent and the best accommodation for a romantic getaway. We are definitely looking forward to return to Crawford's.

Kos kos kos ... ligging ... stap ... strand ... ongelooflik!

Selfs die eenhede wat agter is en hul as geen uitsig sien, het 'n uitsig. Dis 'n ongelooflike plek en die etes is asemrowend!

Even the units that are behind and see themselves as no view have a view. It's an incredible place and the meals are breathtaking!

Excellent place to spend as much time as possible, especially if the weather is good.

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit and would highly recommend it to others. The dinner one night was disappointing, tough vegetables and meat, but no complaints otherwise.

Onvergeetlike 9 dae van absolute rus; geregte was uit die boonste rakke; sagte wit seesand!

Net 45 km vanaf Oos Londen se lughawe in die mees ongelooflike area; die mooiste natuurtonele net waar mens kyk. Sagste wit sand op die stande; groen heuwels en die area is skoon en nog onderontwikkeld. Die diens by die lodge was puik; baie vriendelike personeel en die kos was uit die boonste rakke. Elke aand ander geregte van die buffet tafel en iets vir elkeen en almal. Lekker geswem elke dag in die swembaddens en die lagoon; heerlik gestap op die strande en net lekker gerus. Net een nadeel; baie trappe na die kamers en baie styl ingang na die kar se parkering. Ry gerus 9 km na Arena en gaan sien die mak kameelperd indien julle van diere hou.

Unforgettable 9 days of absolute rest; dishes were top notch; soft white sea sand!

Just 45km from East London Airport in the most incredible area; the most beautiful natural scenes wherever you look. Softest white sand on the stands; green hills and the area is clean and still underdeveloped. The service at the lodge was great; very friendly staff and the food was top notch. Every night different dishes from the buffet table and something for everyone. Nice swimming every day in the pools and the lagoon; lovely walk on the beaches and just relaxing. Just one downside; many stairs to the rooms and very stylish entrance to the car parking. Feel free to drive 9 km to Arena and go see the tame giraffe if you like animals.

Great place to take young kids

We were a bit dissapointed at the size of our room for the money we paid. There were only 3 beds, and our 3 year old had to sleep on a small make up bed, and he called it stinky. But the service was amazing, so was the food and if you have young kids they have a kids activity area that is open from 9am to 10pm, so great for parents who need time out!!! My kids LOVED it.
