Verblyf was gemaklik.

Vir 'n groot groep sou meer storte gemakliker gewees het, i.p.v. badens in kamers. Kamers was oor die algemeen skoon, net baie insekte in die kamers. Aanwysings om die oond aan te sit sou gehelp het. Trappe by die boonste kamer moet gereeld nagegaan word om ernstige beserings te voorkom. 'n Aparte vrieskas kan baie help, veral met groot groepe wat te min vriesplek vir vleis en ys het. Watertoevoer na die badens is baie stadig. 'n Waaier in die leefarea sal help in die somer. Die dak lek water in die leefarea as dit reën en drup op die eettafel.

Stay was comfortable.

For a large group, more showers would have been more comfortable, instead of baths in rooms. Rooms were generally clean, just a lot of insects in the rooms. Directions for turning on the oven would have helped. Stairs to the upper room should be checked regularly to prevent serious injuries. A separate freezer can help a lot, especially with large groups that have too little freezer space for meat and ice. Water supply to the baths is very slow. A fan in the living area will help in the summer. The roof leaks water into the living area when it rains and drips onto the dining table.

Hello Gideon, baie dankie vir jou voorstelle - ek waardeer dit opreg. Ek neem kennis daarvan en sal verseker die aanbevele idees oorweeg en waar moontlik toepas.

Die volgende sal aandag geniet: watertoevoer na die baddens, die trap meer gereeld nagaan, oondinstruksies opsit, ens. Groter yskas en waaier sal in plek kom.

Ons het 'n groot storm gehad in Desember en waar nodig probeer om betyd die dak reg te maak om ongerief te voorkom. Jammer dat dit steeds gedrup het. Ons is tans besig om die hele dak oor te kam na die storm. Die tyd tussen julle aankoms en die storm het ons net ingehaal.

Insekte by die rivier is die natuur. Dus is dit noodsaaklik om die ligte af te hou en deure toe te hou. Insekdoder is ook orals in die kamers beskikbaar. Ons spuit ook voor elke gas se aankoms insekdoder.

Nogmaals dankie - ek waardeer positiewe terugvoer, en sal verseker daarvan werk maak.
Groete
Stefna

Fantasties.

Kan nie anders as om volpunte te gee nie. Ongelooflikke plek. Ons as familie het net almal die grootste lof vir die gasvryheid en gerief wat ons ervaar het. Kon ook my kleinkinders leer visvang.

Was rustige wegbreeknaweek saam familie, net te kort. Ideaal geleë langs die Vaalrivier.

Ontspanne atmosfeer, ons het heel tuis gevoel. Gerieflik en baie netjies ingerig. Pragtige aparte kamers. Ideaal vir families/vriendekuiers langs Vaalrivier en ook lekker verrassing om wild te kon sien. Ons sal vir seker in somer weer wil gaan om swembad ook te kan benut.

Was a peaceful getaway weekend with family, just too short. Ideally located next to the Vaal River.

Relaxed atmosphere, we felt right at home. Comfortable and very neatly furnished. Beautiful separate rooms. Ideal for families/friends outings along the Vaal River and also a nice surprise to be able to see wildlife. We will definitely want to go again in summer to be able to use the pool as well.

Beste familievakansie in 'n lang tyd.

Dit is 'n vreeslike oulike plek waar mens lekker kan kuier, die kamers is baie mooi en netjies alles wat mens nodig het is daar. Die kombuis is ten volle toegerus, die TV kamer is gemaklik vir die kinders gewees. Ons gasvrou was baie behulpsaam en vriendelik en het elke dag kom seker maak dat alles in orde is en of ons iets nodig het. Ons vakansie was heerlik ons wou nie terugkom nie. Die ligging is perfek. Ons kom definitief weer kuier.

Best family vacation in a long time.

It is a really cute place where you can have a good time, the rooms are very nice and tidy, everything you need is there. The kitchen is fully equipped, the TV room was comfortable for the children. Our hostess was very helpful and friendly and came every day to make sure everything was in order and if we needed anything. Our holiday was wonderful we didn't want to come back. The location is perfect. We will definitely visit again.

Almal het dit geniet.

Die enigste teleurstelling was die feit dat die lapa wat op die water uitkyk en op die foto's gebruik word om die eiendom te bemark nie deel is van die eiendom nie. Dit behoort aan die eienaar van die eindom, wie se blyplek direk langs KayanZee Lodge is.

Everyone enjoyed it.

The only disappointment was the fact that the lapa that overlooks the water and is used in the photos to market the property is not part of the property. It belongs to the owner of the property, whose residence is directly next to KayanZee Lodge.

Baie netjiese verblyf onder die waaksame oog van Stefna.

As 'n mens Parys besoek en jy soek baie goeie verblyf naby maar tog nie in die dorp self nie kan jy nie fouteer met KayanZee Lodge nie. Die gasvrou Stefna hou 'n oog oor alles en sorg dat dinge glad verloop.

Perfek vir 'n lekker gesinswegbreek, netjies, skoon en veilig met die vriendelikste verwelkoming.

Wat 'n asemrowende plek. Jy word vriendelik verwelkom en na omgesien. Kamers is ruim, netjies en skoon en hoe wonderlik dat elkeen sy eie badkamer het. Die kombuis het alles wat jy nodig het en die leefarea is 'n lekker kuierplek. Visvang, voëlkyk, stap en ontspan langs die swembad onder lowergroen bome. Kan nie wag om weer te gaan kuier nie.

Breathtaking tranquillity on a riverbank!

What a delightful surprise! First of all the hostess constantly kept track of our arrival and then when we eventually arrived, she was waiting in the rain to welcome us to the facility and show us around the place. It is absolutely beautiful and the web site does not do justice to the spectacular view of the river and the entire place. The rooms are amazing and the set-up is so private for individual couples or families staying there together. The pool was sparkling, despite the weather and the place is equipped with everything you need and more! The hostess and her family are very friendly and constantly checked in to see if all was well and also to offer advise on where to go as it was our first visit to Parys - but I can safely say it will not be the last - especially to KayanZee Lodge. My husband and I spent our anniversary there with our children and grandson and he also thoroughly enjoyed himself. Just the drive to and from the gate is wonderful with the all the game that can be seen at such close range - definitely a highlight for my grandson!
