Quiet, relaxing farm atmosphere.

The hosts, jovial Don and sanguine Berto went out of their way to make things comfortable in spite of the challenges of load shedding - and a huge thunderstorm! We booked the Rhino room, and it did not disappoint: real wooden floors, spacious, with a super view over the Albert Falls dam. Safety is top-notch with windows and doors fitted with Trellidor burglar proofing. We appreciated the pleasant farm atmosphere and the absence of noise and other city-like distractions. It was a relaxing stay and consider it to be good value at the price.

Beautiful and fabulous.

We had a very nice 2 days at Mon Desir. Service is very good and the owners are very hands-on with their guests. Pity we did not have WiFi at the cottage, as we had an 18-year-old with us, and we all know how they love their phones. However, it was not the end of the world because we were so busy we did not even miss anything.

Lekker en netjiese verblyf. Fantastiese gashere en uitsonderlike kos.

Netjiese verblyf. Die gashere gaan uit hul pad om alles gerieflik en gemaklik te maak. Naby Pietermaritzburg en groot winkels, maar ver genoeg om nie eens 'n voertuig te hoor nie. Pragtige uitsig, heerlike kos en geselskap. WiFi werk goed. Veilig. Baie ontspanne atmosfeer en was lekker om te kon ontspan en nie kos te maak vir 'n paar dae nie. Heerlike kos teen redelike pryse. Sal definitief weer Mon Desir besoek.

Nice and neat accommodation. Fantastic hosts and exceptional food.

Neat accommodation. The hosts go out of their way to make everything convenient and comfortable. Close to Pietermaritzburg and major shops, but far enough away to not even hear a vehicle. Beautiful view, delicious food and company. WiFi works well. Safe. Very relaxed atmosphere and it was nice to be able to relax and not cook for a few days. Delicious food at reasonable prices. Will definitely visit Mon Desir again.

Beautiful views, dogs everywhere, rude host, dirty pool, grass cutting at 5am.

If I knew better I would not even have bothered.

To summarize great host, spectacular view and farm like relaxing environment.

We enjoyed our stay and the way our host went out of his way to accommodate us and make our stay a pleasure.

Fantastic, refreshing.

We enjoyed our stay. It was very difficult to leave. We had gone there to unwind and breathe fresh air and that is what we got. Don and Alberto were fantastic hosts, it was like meeting old friends who were very accommodating of our needs. We rocked up there with our teenage son, our 7-year-old daughter, and our little dogs - and Don immediately freely upgraded our room to a cottage to allow us space. We all had a fantastic time - our little dogs made new friends there. My husband went fishing at Albert Falls Dam and caught a big fish. He couldn't wait to show Don and brag. Alberto's meals were home-cooked and delicious. A simple breakfast was like heaven. Well, good things end eventually, but we will definitely go there with the rest of the family that stayed behind.

Gasvryheid uit groot harte.

Die omgewing is mooi, die kos lekker, maar die gasvryheid was uitstaande. Ons praat nogsteeds oor ons aangename kuier. En het reeds Mon Desir aanbeveel.

Hospitality from big hearts.

The surroundings are beautiful, the food delicious, but the hospitality was outstanding. We are still talking about our pleasant visit. And already recommended Mon Desir.

They are also pet-friendly for small pets.
