Baie rustig en lekker.

Die gastehuis is werklik een van die netjieste en skoonste plekke waar ek al gebly het (ek reis en werk die hele land vol). Daar is bitter min hotelle/gastehuise/selfsorgverblyf wat hierdie standaard handhaaf.

The guest house is truly one of the neatest and cleanest places I've ever stayed (I travel and work all over the country). There are very few hotels/guest houses/self-catering accommodation that maintain this standard.

This was such a wonderful place to stay, a gem in the middle of Pongola. The attention to detail in each unit is spectacular. We will definitely be staying here again on our trips home from Mozambique. We were also recommended to go have an early dinner at the local golf course, Spiller Bar. The food was lovely and child friendly.

Flink vriendelike diens.

Skoon, rustig en privaat met deurgans baie aandag aan hulle decor, binne en buitekant. Ek sal definitief volgende keer my gesin saam neem. Die kleurskema in die eenhede is ontspannend met baie moeite gemaak en gerief van hulle gaste. Deurgans baie moeite gedoen om COVID-regulasies na te kom. Dit baie maklik om te vind vanaf die hoofpad na KZN en gerieflik naby eetplekke geleë. Die tuinuitleg pas deurgans aan by hulle tema.

Clean, quiet and private with a lot of attention to their decor, inside and out. I will definitely take my family next time. The color scheme in the units is relaxing and made with a lot of effort for the comfort of their guests. Made a lot of effort throughout to comply with COVID regulations. Very easy to find from the main road to KZN and conveniently located near places to eat. The garden layout matches their theme throughout.

Baie aangename verblyf.

Baie lekker gebly. Baie skoon en netjies en goed toegerus. Enigste negatief was die matras wat nie baie lekker geslaap het nie. Gelukkig was daar 2 enkelbeddens in die kamer en ons het op die enkelbedjies geslaap. Sal weer by Kastelein tuisgaan.

5 ster-gehalte uit die boonste rakke!

Kastelein laat mens voel of jy in 'n storieboek instap. Die verblyf is ongelooflike waarde vir geld en die aandag aan klein detail sorg vir 'n verrassing om elke hoek! Ek sal met graagte Kastelein aanbeveel vir enige iemand, dit was 'n welkome oase op ons reis. Ons sal voorwaar spesiaal weer Pongola toe gaan om by Kastelein te kan oorbly.

Kastelein makes you feel like you are walking into a storybook. The accommodation is incredible value for money and the attention to small detail ensures a surprise around every corner!

Ongelooflike netjiese kamers en baie goed toegerus.

Ons het 23:00 daar aangekom en weer 05:00 gery maar het dit baie geniet om daar oor te slaap. Die kamers is ontsettend netjies en mooi, en is ook baie goed toegerus. Die mense van Kastelein het baie moeite gedoen om ons so laat te ontvang en om aan al ons versoeke te voldoen. Wens ons kon langer daar bly. Sal verseker weer daar bly in die nabye toekoms.

Unexpected gem in Pongola.

I have two four star guest houses in Sandton, Johannesburg, and am often critical when staying over at other places. However, in this case, I could not fault Kastelein on anything! The rooms were beautifully decorated, well planned, spotless, fabulously appointed and attention to detail was obvious. I was astounded that Kastelein was in such a little "dorpie". Their service, quality and standards would appease even the most discernible traveler. Well done to the team there! We were impressed and will never stay anywhere else when driving to Mozambique and Sodwana.

Dit is die mooiste, skoonste, netjieste en mees smaakvol gemeubileerde gastehuis wat ek aan enige iemand sal aanbeveel.

Wat 'n aangename verrassing toe ons by Kastelein aankom. Vriendelike ontvangs, georganiseerd, detail gefokus, skoon en netjies, om nie van die pragtige kamers te praat nie. Pragtige interior met die grys en wit wat 'n klassieke styl met die hede kombineer (uitstekende keuse!) Heerlike koel kamers (Pongola was 40 grade die dag en die kamers heerlik koel) - alles wat jy nodig het. Die mooiste tuin, baie keurig uitgelê en hiper netjies! Ons het ook die lekkerste ontbyt genuttig die volgende oggend, groot porsies. As ek ooit weer Pongola toe gaan sal ek by geen ander plek oorbly as Kastelein nie. Ek het toe my nuwe Bluetooth Speaker daar vergeet wat ek vir Kersfees gekry het. Kastelein het dit vir my in veilige bewaring gehou tot ek dit kon afhaal op pad terug. Baie dankie vir uitstekende diens.

It's the most beautiful, clean and tastefully furnished guesthouse that I would recommend to anyone.

What a pleasant surprise when we arrived at Kastelein. Friendly reception, organized, focused on details, clean and neat, to not even speak of the beautiful rooms. Beautiful interior with the grey and white, a classical style combined with the modern elements (excellent choice!). Lovely, cool rooms (Pongola was 40 degrees that day and the rooms were nice and cold) - everything you need. The most beautiful garden, very tastefully furnished and super neat! We also had the most delicious breakfast the next morning, big portions. If I ever go to Pongola again, I won't stay at any other place except Kastelein. I left the Bluetooth Speaker that I got for Christmas there and Kastelein kept it safe for me until I could collect it on the way back. Thank you for the amazing service.

Onverbeterlike eenhede, vriendelike diens, heerlike ontbyt. Sien julle beslis weer!

Ek is geen voorstander van B&B nie, maar ek was aangenaam verras. Die eenhede was onberispelik skoon. Goed toegerus met daai ekstras om jou spesiaal te laat voel. Ontbyt was fenomenaal. Ek woon ongeveer 15 dae per maand in 'n 5 ster-hotel in Durban waar ek 'n Diamant-lid is. Ek dink hulle kan gaan kers opsteek. Baie moeite was gedoen om die ontbyt vir my laatlam seun van 4 jaar oud aantreklik te maak. Baie dankie julle. Julle sien my beslis weer.

I'm no fan of B&B, but I was pleasantly surprised. The units were immaculately clean. Well equipped with those extras to make you feel special. Breakfast was phenomenal. I live approximately 15 days a month in a 5 star hotel in Durban where I am a Diamond member. I think they can go light a candle. A lot of effort was put into making the breakfast attractive to my late 4 year old son. Thank you very much. You will definitely see me again.
