Fabulous.

The host was very accommodating, as we had a bit of a problem. Great host. Will definitely recommend.

Highly recommended.

From arrival to departure it was such a pleasant experience; an exceptionally beautiful area and warm hospitality. Such a shame my stay was so short. Will definitely recommend to others. Thank you, Rob and staff.

Lovely place to stay.

Lovely cottage in a quiet and safe area. We used Cottage A and B. Cottage A was ideal for a couple, and Cottage B has a lot more room and a lovely veranda. It is ideal when one uses both units to entertain a group of 4. Our only problem was that the bedding duvet was too warm, and it would have been nice if there was an upper sheet. We ate out, and there are a few restaurants a short drive away.

Misty Ridge 's response

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for the review and I'm glad that you all enjoyed your stay. We have noted your comment about an upper sheet and I am happy to say that we now have them available on request.

Kind regards,

Robroy Adams

Overall a comfortable stay.

Overall, Misty Ridge provided a comfortable stay with all the essential amenities in good order. The fan and WiFi worked well, and we had no issues with Netflix and YouTube. Hot water was always available, and the shower was spacious. We loved the covered patio, especially when it rained. The property felt secure. However, given the size and location, we felt it was a tad pricey. Despite being advertised as secluded, it's attached to another cottage, and both patios are in close proximity. We could hear the sound of water draining from the attached cottage. Additionally, there was a lot of activity in front of the cottage, and its layout made privacy somewhat challenging, which could be a concern for those seeking a secluded/romantic getaway. Despite these considerations, the accommodation is recommended for individuals seeking a secure, short-term stay, rather than a private getaway.

Family with teenagers

Very poor experience.

We did not enjoy the stay. There were no air conditioners in the cottages. No breakfast. When requested, they refused to make it.

Misty Ridge 's response

This reservation was made by Premkrishnan for family with teenagers. It turned
out to be a reservation for American Tourists, eight adults in total all sharing in three self-
catering cottages and one outside B&B room with its own entrance.

Mr Premkrishnan Gounder dropped them off and I was left with the task of having to inform
them that breakfast was not included, as stated on the booking reservation.

I suggested to them that they should go to PheZulu Safari Park for breakfast, as it has
beautiful views with a chance of seeing game. They were very happy at the time and
thanked me for my suggestion.

The next morning my staff member came to me whilst I was cooking breakfast for another
six guests in the main house, informing me that the lady from Cottage B was asking that time
was breakfast. I inform my staff member to tell her that there was no breakfast as explained
to her on check in. My staff member came back to me saying that Cottage B wanted to see
me. I informed the staff member to tell her that I would see her once I was done with
breakfast. By the time I had finished breakfast they had already been collected by
Premkrishnan Gounder. I can only assume that he was a tour guide who had made the
reservation on their behalf. The next day when he picked up the guests to depart, I informed
him that I was not at all happy in the manner that the reservation was handled as there was
tension between the guests and myself. He then informed me that he was under the
impression that breakfast was included.

I was accused by one of the quests of false advertising as Cottage B did not have an air
conditioner.

All our B&B rooms together with Cottage C have air conditioners.

Cottage A & B both have ceiling fans only. Since 2004 both cottages have had a strong record of
repeated bookings by the same guests year after year.

It is noted that there is a very low rating for both value for money and customer service that
is below our average rating on reviews.

I dont know what the guests ended up paying for their accommodation as Premkrishnan
Gounder paid the bill and since he informed me on the day of departure that he thought
breakfast was included, maybe this is the reason for the low ratings that is not a true
reflection of Misty Ridge B&B.

Kind regards, Robroy Adams

Misty Ridge is the ideal guesthouse. We were warmly welcomed. Had a lovely stay! We will be back!

We stayed over in two self-catering cottages, very spacious, clean and well-equipped! Perfect location, near everything you need. The host was amazing, thank you.

A peaceful getaway.

Cottage A at Misty Ridge was very spacious, comfortable, and had all the necessary amenities. We loved it! There was a lovely cross breeze, and an aircon would greatly enhance the stay.

Misty Ridge 's response

Hi Fatima,

Thank you for the feedback and glad that you enjoyed your stay.

When next you stay see if Cottage C is available as it has air-con.

Kind regards,

Baie gerieflik en eienaars baie vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Ons het op die nippertjie plek bespreek. Michele get my dadelik teruggebel en bevestig. Rob het ons warm ontvang en uit sy pad gegaan om 'n kamer met 'n bed te gee vir ons kleinding. Ons het nog 'n extra kamer gekort en hulle het ons dadelik gehelp. Baie goeie diens, baie lekker plek.

Very comfortable and owners very friendly and helpful.

We booked a place at the last minute. Michele immediately called me back and confirmed. Rob gave us a warm welcome and went out of his way to provide a room with a bed for our little one. We still needed an extra room and they helped us immediately. Very good service, very nice place.

Thank you for this review.

If only you had of informed me that you were having a problem with the air con I could have sorted it out. The air con has a heating mode and a cooling mode that can be set at a temperature of your choice. If it is set on heating mode there is a delay of about 10 to 15 minutes before it kicks in, a safety setting, set by the manufacturers. If it is set on the cooling mode it comes on instantly.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
