I really had a great time.

It was very nice. The staff were very friendly, and the breakfast was really good. I just found the tent could have more in it, especially if you want to braai. There were no utensils for that at all, as well as plates, knives, and forks. The WiFi hardly worked as well.

Absoluut pragtige see-uitsig en rustig.

Dit was 'n fantastiese wegbreek en die see-uitsig is absoluut stunning. Die kamer was goed toegerus en die bed was hemels. Die eenheid het alles wat 'n mens nodig het. Die dierelewe, apies en poue, en die natuurlewe was 'n bonus.

Absolutely beautiful sea view and peaceful.

It was a fantastic break and the sea view is absolutely stunning. The room was well equipped and the bed was heavenly. The unit has everything one needs. The animal life, monkeys and peacocks, and the wildlife was a bonus.

Baie lekker gebly.

Die kamers is pragtig en luuks. Die staf was vriendelik en opgelei. Die kos was uitstekend met waarde vir geld. Voel net hulle kan eetgerei en glase in kamer sit indien mens self wil braai. Maar sal beslis teruggaan en plek aanbeveel.

Mooi natuur en lekker kos.

Die ligging is baie mooi, mense is vriendelik maar hulle kennis om die spyskaart en staproetes is maar vaal. Die huisies het slegs 'n stort en klein kinders benodig 'n bad. Die stort loop stadig uit en jy staan binne in die water en stort. Kos is vreeslik lekker maar neem baie lank om voor te berei. Op die fotos wys mooi staproetes maar hulle sê daar is geen. Verder was dit 'n goeie ervaring ek sal weer soontoe gaan.

Natural beauty and delicious food.

The location is beautiful, people are friendly but their knowledge of the menu and hiking trails are lacking. The houses only have showers and small children need a bath. The shower drains slowly and you have to stand in the water and shower. Food is absolutely delicious but they take too long to prepare it. On the photos it shows beautiful walking trails but they say there are none. Otherwise it was a good experience and I would like to go there again.

Misty Mountain Reserve 's response

Dear Marco
Thank you for your review, we pride ourselves on customer care, good food and accommodation. Unfortunately, the cottages where you stayed have showers only, we have future plans to upgrade these cottages to incorporate a bath. There is a wonderful hiking trail that has been on the property for five years, well frequented, guided and well-marked. We look forward to your return visit, please contact me personally for your reservation requirements.

Bekostigbare, mooi verblyf, maar die vlieë sal maak dat ek nie teruggaan nie.

Pragtige plek. Pragtige uitsig. Bietjie 'under staffed' met tye, dan is die diens in die restaurant nie so goed nie, maar dis nie die personeel se skuld nie. Ons het 'n verskriklike vlieg plaag gehad in die 'rustic farm cottages' waar ons gebly het. Die kothuise is reg langs 'n koeiplaas. Dis onmenslik. Hulle moet regtig iets daaraan doen. Ons is die laaste aand geskuif na 'n ander kothuis wat bietjie beter was. Ek is spyt dat ons nie in die "log cabins" bespreek het nie. Dis moeilik om te onderskei op die webblad watter verblyf is wat. Hulle moet dalk meer foto's opsit van die 'rustic farm cottages'. Hulle adverteer grootliks die "log cabins", wat baie mooi lyk en nie so baie vlieë het nie.

Affordable, nice stay, but the flies will keep me from going back.

Beautiful place. Beautiful view. A bit 'under staffed' at times, then the service in the restaurant is not that good, but it's not the staff's fault. We had a terrible fly infestation in the 'rustic farm cottages' where we stayed. The cottages are right next to a cow farm. It's inhumane. They really need to do something about it. On the last night we were moved to another cottage which was a bit better. I regret that we did not book in the "log cabins". It is difficult to distinguish on the web page which accommodation is which. Maybe they should put up more pictures of the 'rustic farm cottages'. They heavily advertise the "log cabins", which look very nice and don't have so many flies.

Pragtige uitsig en natuur en dis rustig.

Die uitsig was pragtig en dis die ideale plek om te rus. Hoewel die hut na 4-ster lyk, was die Country Cottage verseker nie 4-ster nie. Dit het 'n lekker plaasatmosfeer, maar die vlieë was oorweldigend baie. Die water was ook bruin en die toilet het nie gewerk nie. Maar verder was dit 'n lieflike, rustige vakansie. Pragtige omgewing en see-uitsig. Was wel teleurgestel toe ek uitvind die naaste strand is 40 km van daar af.

Beautiful view and nature and it's peaceful.

The view was beautiful and it's the ideal place to rest. Although the cabin looks like 4-star, the Country Cottage was certainly not 4-star. It has a nice farm atmosphere, but the flies were overwhelming. The water was also brown and the toilet did not work. But otherwise it was a lovely, peaceful holiday. Beautiful surroundings and sea view. Was disappointed when I found out the nearest beach was 40 km away.

Nie waarde vir geld. Sal nie gou weer kom nie.

So 'n indrukwekkende ligging met personeel wat baie vriendelik is maak die baie slegte pad tot daar bietjie beter. Die kos was uitstekend en smaakvol maar bied nie waarde vir geld nie. Die kamers is netjies en skoon, maar baie basies ingerig. Die gebrek aan basiese instandhouding het my geskok en het my verblyf onsmaaklik gemaak. Die stort wat drup deur die nag is steurend verby. Die matras was in 'n swak toestand wat ek nie kan aanvaar vir die geld wat dit kos nie. Die personeel is baie vriendelik maar swak opgelei. Hulle kon nie ons deposito betaling opspoor nie en wou ons dubbel vra. Ek sien baie potensiaal vir die plek maar 'n goeie opknapping is nodig.

Not value for money. Won't be coming again anytime soon.

Such an impressive location with very friendly staff makes the very bad road to get there a little better. The food was excellent and tasty but not value for money. The rooms are neat and clean, but very basic. The lack of basic maintenance shocked me and made my stay unpleasant. The shower that drips through the night is disturbingly over. The mattress was in poor condition which I cannot accept for the money it costs. The staff is very friendly but poorly trained. They couldn't trace our deposit payment and wanted to double charge us. I see a lot of potential for the place but a good renovation is needed.

Dear Marina,
We thank you for the time taken to post this review and your points are noted. To highlight our response, we would like to mention the following: Regarding the staff – all our staff are currently undergoing intensive hospitality training with an accredited training program. We can assure you of a vast improvement in this regard. The road is maintained by the Provincial Roads Counsel and is periodically graded, but the road is fit for normal sedan vehicles. We are glad to inform you that all our maintenance is complete and we welcome you back to enjoy our upgraded accommodation.

Fantastiese ligging en vriendelike personeel, maar ons was teleurgesteld in die verblyf (definitief NIE 4-ster gehalte nie!)

Fantastiese ligging en uitsig oor die see - en gerieflik naby verskeidenheid van toeriste aantreklikhede. Vriendelike personeel (veral Jasmine). Maar die akkomodasie het teleurgestel. Die swembad lyk glad nie soos op LekkeSlaap nie. Die lodge is gerieflik, maar nie luuks nie en het definitief instandhouding nodig.

Fantastic location and friendly staff, but we were disappointed in the accommodation (definitely NOT 4-star quality!)

Fantastic location and view of the sea - and conveniently close to a variety of tourist attractions. Friendly staff (especially Jasmine). But the accommodation was disappointing. The pool doesn't look like LekkeSlaap at all. The lodge is comfortable but not luxurious and definitely needs maintenance.

I would recommend Misty Mountain Reserve

The view from our unit was spectacular and we really enjoyed the unit as a whole. Also not too far from the Tsitsikamma village where we spent quite a bit of time. I recommend them highly, but future guests must note that the gravel road to reach them is a bit of a negative. The only other issue is my wife did not enjoy the raised bed area - and actually fell and hurt her ankle quite badly.

Place with potential

Beautiful views and spacious family unit. Definitely not a luxury cottage as indicated - unfortunately I was expecting much more. The linen was old, curtains torn and the fridge wasn't working properly. The drains didn't drain properly. The restaurant is convenient as it is far away from everything- you have to drive down a dirt road to get to the village. Plain,home cooked meals - very friendly waitress. Unfortunately you get the impression that every cent gets turned around for the lodge to survive. Minimal maintenance, lots of potential!
