Dit was baie aangenaam om weg te breek van die stad. Baie goeie ligging.

Ongelooflike ervaring. Die opsigters is baie vriendelik, hulpvaardig en aangenaam. Ons het baie lekker gestap in die berge, geswem in die rivier en lekker gekuier. "Wholesome experience."

It was very pleasant to break away from the city. Very good location.

Incredible experience. The caretakers are very friendly, helpful and pleasant. We had a lot of fun walking in the mountains, swimming in the river and hanging out. "Wholesome experience."

Ons het ons wegbreek by Komati Gorge Lodge baie geniet. Die fasiliteite is puik en die bestuurspaar, Ross en Sandy, is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Hul het ons onmiddelik welkom laat voel en aan al ons behoeftes voorsien. Ek sien uit daarna om weer by Komati Gorge Lodge te gaan kuier.

Omgewing is mooi en die natuur is pragtig. Maar definitief nie 4-ster-akkommodasie nie.

Die plek kort ernstige opknapping en onderhoud. Ek het in Leopard 2 gebly.

Ongelooflik mooi en ontspannend.

Sandy en Ross het ons baie welkom laat voel en het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons vakansie baie spesiaal te maak, niks is vir hulle te veel gevra nie. Ons het perd gery, gekanoe, fly fishing gedoen, geswem en ons was op die viewpoint hiking trail. Hulle kos is baie lekker en hulle diens is uitstekend. Ons het ook baie wilde diere gesien. Ons kan nie wag om terug te gaan nie. Dit was 'n baie kort wegbreek, maar een wat ek nie gou sal vergeet nie.

Incredibly beautiful and relaxing.

Sandy and Ross made us feel very welcome and went out of their way to make our holiday very special, nothing was too much for them. We rode horses, canoeed, did fly fishing, swam and we were on the viewpoint hiking trail. Their food is very tasty and their service is excellent. We also saw many wild animals. We can't wait to go back. It was a very short getaway, but one I won't soon forget.

The place is beautiful and the hosts are wonderful. There is everything for everybody there. Our boys had the best time there doing everything outdoorsy.

We really enjoyed our stay. The restaurant provides a very basic, yet good menu, so if you want variety it's best to plan for some self-catering.

Dit is baie stilm net wat die dokter voorgeskryf het.

Die enigste punt wat ek sal maak is om WiFi in die kamers te verskaf. Want nou moet ek na die hoofgebou gaan om 'n boodskap te stuur. Die WiFi kan beperk word.

It is very quiet just what the doctor ordered.

The only point I would make is to provide WiFi in the rooms. Because now I have to go to the main building to send a message. The WiFi can be limited.

Great kuier, Great hosts - magical environment.

Had a great time. The low-level bridges were flooded so Sandy and Ross did us a huge favour by picking us up and Doornkop next door and we got to test our driving skills on an unplanned but pretty cool game drive 4x4 style - added bonus. The Mahindra performed above expectations. Staff was friendly, lovely restaurant on-site and beautiful walking trails available. We sat on our porch just watching the mighty river roar by - awesome. Only slight issue we had was that our rooms could have been cleaned a bit better, the fridge was turned off on our arrival and the living room's couch can use a cover or full replacement - that's the only negative - overall- nature made up for it big time.

Thank you for taking the time to send a review. We appreciate your kind and honest feedback.

Van die oomblik wat jy arriveer, kan jy ontspan. Die omgewing is asemrowend mooi en die mense baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig.

Dit is een van die plekke waar die foto's nie die volle prentjie gee nie. Als is 100 keer beter en mooier as enige foto. Ek sal beslis hierdie weggesteekte juweel vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Dis ideaal vir kleiner kinders. Daar is soveel wat hulle kan doen en geniet in 'n veilige omgewing.

Very private area, the accommodation could have been better for the money spent.

When I made the booking there was no indication that one would have to travel 28 km to on a gravel road to the venue, apart from the spider webs underneath the bedroom pedestal my 3 year old baby was given a mattress to sleep on.

Apologies Sir, however, the gravel road is only 7 km.

Dis absoluut fantasties, baie vriendelike mense, goeie kos en pragtige omgewing.

Sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel. Daar is geen selfoon opvangs nie, so jy het nie 'n keuse om net te relax of iets aktiefs te doen daar nie. Ook baie lekker aktiwiteite wat nie eers op hul bladsy geadverteer word nie so daar is baie om te doen vir almal van oud tot jonk.
