Montagu Springs

Was baie baie lekker.

Verblyf was baie lekker. Rustig en verfrissend gewees. Almal het geriewe baie geniet.

Thank you for being nice to us.

Montagu Springs is waarde vir geld en die atmosfeer is fantasties, great service, a place I will definitely go to again.

Excellent.

Very nice, going to do it again. With grandkids, they are looking forward to it as we were there before.

Dit was awesome verby.

Vir seker was dit een vir die boeke om te onthou.

I'm already planning my next holiday to Montagu Springs.

We had a very nice stay. The staff was friendly and we had marvellous neighbours. Not even the rain kept us indoors. It's also very safe; we could leave our doors open when taking a walk.

The best vacay ever.

This was our first time and surely not our last. We really had a fantastic time and the kids had a blast. The warm water pool was fantastic and the chalet had everything we needed, so we really had a good time.

Fantasties.

Dankie. Die tydjie was baie aangenaam. Ons het dit baie geniet en sal beslis weer besoek in die toekoms.

Family friendly.

Very family oriented. Fun for kids, sunny weather in winter was great.

Onderskatte lekkerte. Met warm swembaddens.

Aangenaam verras. Skoon, warm swembaddens, uitleg van Montagu Springs op grasperke rondom warm swembaddens teen rivier is selfs mooier as wat dit klink. 'n Paar vorige resensies het ons minder laat verwag, maar ons was aangenaam verras.

Wonderful.

It was wonderful and nice.

Uitmuntend.

Personeel en bestuur is vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Sal enige tyd weer gaan en dit is 'n moet vir diegene wat wil ontspan.

Hot spring on winter evening- bliss.

Loads of fun if you want a campsite type of feel but don't need to stay in a tent in winter. Stay in the Montagu Springs hotel if you want to use the main springs- we stayed in a Plettenberg chalet. Staff amazingly helpful. Kids loved it.

We had a great time, safe for kids, and the heated pool was amazing.

The chalet had everything we needed. Service at the reception was very helpful and friendly. The heated pool was amazing.

Heerlike, sal dit aanraai vir 'n families.

Dit was 'n wonderlike naweek wat ek met my familie kon saam spandeer.

Relaxing, safe.

Very relaxing. Good location, good facilities.

Like the location.

Very restful and quiet. Enjoyed our stay.

Making family memories.

Always love staying at Montagu Springs because the kids love it.

Rustige atmosfeer en baie lekker ligging.

Hi alles was netjies en perfek ons het tuis gevoel.

Relaxing.

Enjoyed it, thank you.

Good but the WiFi was very weak.

Very nice. Just a recommendation that an extra mattress could have been provided for kids as they had to sleep on the couch as we did not have space in the car for a blow-up mattress.

Amazing, awesome.

It was fantastic. Kids loved the pools and games. It was also relaxing for me.

Wonderful!

We had a great stay and the children loved the facilities offered.

Very peaceful.

Ons het baie baie lekker gebly. Alles is so rustig.

Uitstekende vakansie.

Ons het baie lekker gebly en het geen probleme ervaar nie. Dit was baie rustig en ons geniet die natuur baie.

Pleasant.

Our stay was relatively good.

Wonderful, relaxing.

My partner and family enjoyed ourselves! Definitely a place we will return to.

Very relaxing stay and safe.

Very pleasant stay, the place is safe to walk around late at night and all facilities are in working order. Only the WiFi was a bit of a problem.

Stay was amazing.

Our stay was pleasant, the unit was clean and big enough for our short stay. Everything was provided in the unit; we only needed to bring ourselves, food, and swim towels. Thank you.

Heerlik.

Dit was heerlik, maar die kamer se bed was stukkend. Net 3 potte gehad en die matras was stukkend. Baie ongemaklik geslaap.

Ontspanne.

Gerus en gebly.

Die scenerie was mooi, maar dit kort 'n goeie upgrade.

Met aankoms was die personeel baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het 'n huisie by Montagu Springs geboek, maar was in 'n ander huisie gekry. My tienerseun het nie op sy bed gepas nie. Die stapelbeddens is nie geskik vir tieners nie. Die spasie was te klein. Die badkamer was baie klein. My man en seun was baie ongelukkig want hulle kon nie behoorlik beweeg in die badkamer nie. My tiener se kop het heeltyd teen die plafon gekap as hy op die bed was. Hy sê die bed voel lekker sag om op te slaap, maar die spasie was te klein om gemaklik op die bed te klim en weer af te klim. My 4-jarige het gehou van haar stapelbed omdat dit letterlik op die grond was en sy kon maklik in en uit klim. En die feit dat jy ekstra moet betaal om die warm swembad te gebruik is pateties. Alles op die perseel moet verniet wees vir gaste.

We love the chalets with aircon and WiFi. The cold and hot pools were great.

Excellent, relaxing, peaceful.

Fantasties.

Verblyf was uitstekend. Sal definitief weer gaan.

Kuier was lekker, ons het dit geniet.

Die kuier was fantasties, die huis kort net 'n upgrade. Kranne was nie skoon, daar is nie 'n proper shower nie, ons verkies 'n shower bo 'n bad. Yskas freezer rakie het skyns gehang, die kombuis kaste se deure het aandag nodig, die toiletpot lek want daar was 'n toiletrol onderin om water te absorbeer.

It was nice.

I loved the peacefulness, the toilet shower was too small, and the warm pool was too small for everyone at once. Why must you pay for the warm pool?

Goeie herinneringe!

Ja, baie! Yskas se vriesdeel was vasgevries en ons kon dit nie oopkry nie. WiFi/internet kon ook nie lekker werk nie. Kind het dit baie geniet, veral die kamer waar hy op sy bedjie kon slaap!

It was overall just okay.

Montagu Springs should really look at the standard of their accommodation and compare it to tariffs. In future, I would book a Mountain Chalet at Avalon and just add the extra few thousands. At least I would get comfort out of my stay. That's the main reason we leave the comfort of our homes, to go on vacation expecting luxury and comfort. We pay for it. The 4-plate stove in our terrace took forever to heat up, the light bulbs were flickering all the time, and the towel rail in the toilet kept coming out of the wall. It's the little things that should be seen to.

We enjoyed it very much.

Was relaxing in beautiful surroundings. Safe and entertaining for children.

It was ok.

The shower door in unit 86 couldn't close. The windows in the bedroom as well as lounge couldn't close. This caused wind to always be in the room, which made it very cold.

It was a nice break.

Good but could have been informed of the dual unit.

A great getaway.

Very relaxing. Accommodation was basic but clean, and the resort was perfect for kids who could play tennis, soccer, or swim. We enjoyed lovely hikes and quiet time.

Lekker.

Ja, ek het lekker gebly. Baie dankie.

Pleasant, peaceful.

The stay was pleasant and peaceful.

Baie lekker wegbreek!

Baie rustige tydjie gehad en meer as genoeg fasiliteite om kinders besig te hou.

Plek besig om agteruit te gaan. Maintenance onvoldoende.

Lekker gebly in die Montagu Springs area. Die ander areas op die oord lyk maar bietjie nie op standaard nie. Die onderste dele is stukkend en dit lyk asof die maintenance nie goed gedoen word nie. Daar is ook nie braai roosters nie. Vat maar jou eie een saam.

A value for money option in an extremely nice location.

The stay was excellent, and the pools were fantastic. It would have been nice to know beforehand that the venue does not have backup power and is subject to load shedding. The accommodation is in drastic need of renovation to bring it out of the 90s look and feel. Otherwise, a nice place to stay, and we will come back.

Vriendelike diens, skoon en alles wat jy nodig het is in die huisie.

Baie lekker gewees. Super mooi plek. Wou nie huis toe nie.

It was an ok stay. Nothing fancy. Montagu Springs needs a facelift.

Stay was good. I do feel that after so many years the chalets can get a bit of a facelift. We also feel that washing up and drying up cloths should be provided. The newly renovated accommodation also took away the enjoyment of paying to spend the day, which made us feel segregated from the hotel guests. We will not use this option again as we felt like outsiders despite paying R135 per person to swim in hot water, but then being told you can't go here, you can't go there. Wasted money and spoiled experience.

Needs serious upgrades!

This establishment is definitely not up to resort standards. It felt like I was transported back to the 80s. The unit needs a serious upgrade. The temperature knob of the fridge was broken, and only 1 of the 4 stove plates was working. The functioning stove plate was very weak. The bathroom had an old smell, and the shower had lots of mould. The unit can get very hot, and the weak air-conditioning does not do much justice. Rules of the resort are not enforced, attracting an undisciplined calibre of guests. The establishment looks very run down. You only get 1GB of Wi-Fi. Once depleted you need to buy Wi-Fi. To drive almost 3 hours out of Cape Town to stay in an outdated unit with only a shared pool as a highlight is not worth it.

Units rather poor. Facilities OK.

When we arrived, our unit smelled terrible (old oil and cigarettes) and we could see that there is a lot of wear and tear (stains, furniture in bad condition). The kitchen blinds were completely broken, and we had no privacy. The bedrooms were the only space that was neat and clean. Thank God. We reported it, but nothing was done about it. My husband got sick, and staff popped in and saw how badly damaged the kitchen blinds were. Definitely not the standard that we have as a family.

We made the best of it.

Our chalet looked like a shack inside. Broken curtains. Damaged stove. Duct taped floors. The couch looked like 20 cats had a party on it. Torn! The lovely staff then moved me to a slightly better unit after I called to complain. The website pictures are deceiving. There were no cloths to even wash dishes!

Not very memorable.

The hot water geyser was not working and the door to the toilets stuck.

It was ok.

We had a good stay. Only there is no way to reach the staff when you need them, like at night. We woke up at 3am to find young men smoking, drinking, and talking loudly in the park. We were a bit worried but didn't know how to reach security to inform them. Then we stayed up until they left, went to bed, only for them to come back after a few minutes. But the place was nice. Thanks.

This is our first and the last time we will visit Montagu Springs.

The chalets are so outdated and unsafe for younger kids (bad state of chalets). The curtains are damaged, the bottom of the chalets is broken, and pipes are exposed. In actual fact, the chalets shouldn't even be rented out. We complained about the state of the chalet, and the manager gave us alternate accommodation, which was better but also not up to the standard that we are used to. Paying so much for accommodation and then still having to pay for the pools daily is quite annoying. The outside maintenance is very nice, and the place has a lot of potential to be great, but that requires the chalets to be renovated. The day spent at Avalon Springs (which is also expensive) made up for the whole vacation. Montagu Springs could take some tips from another place where you pay less for awesome accommodation (which includes daily cleaning service), pools, putt putt (refundable deposit), and slides at no extra cost.

Slegte onvangs in die plet.

Glad nie daar gebly. Die plet was net die hefde vir ons beskikbaar, die res was toegesluit. Die plet benodig baie werk en is bitter klein en teen die stroom waar ekskavasie gedoen word.

Family really enjoyed the whole environment.

The accommodation was perfect, and the staff was excellent and friendly.

Family friendly.

Will definitely be returning soon.

'n Baie gemaklike blyplek naby baie besienswaardighede.

Die woonstel se kombuis was beter toegerus as meeste soortgelyke akkommodasies (in terme van messegoed, breekware, ens.) en daar is baie kaste in die slaapkamers. Gemaklike beddens.

Peaceful, tranquil, pure bliss.

It was a good break away from home. It was just unfortunately load shedding but the views made up for that and there was a gas stove available which didn't hinder us from any cooking and meal prep.

Fantasties!

Met aankoms was daar 2 huise bespreek. Ekt net 1 huis bespreek. So ek hoop nog vir 'n terugbetaling van 1 huis wat bespreek was.

Was very nice.

Was perfect for my money. Would come again.

Relaxing and resourceful.

We loved all the activities that one could do.

Lekker.

Het elke oomblik geniet.

Great Stay @ Montagu Springs.

We had a great stay at Montagu Springs. The wife and the small one enjoyed themselves and definitely will return.

Baie aangenaam.

Met die website se afslag was dit voorwaar die moeite werd. Baie lekker gebly en is sentraal om die omgewing te verken.

Fantasties!

Dit was baie lekker. Ons chalet was sommer by die pools, so met klein kinders kon jy somer op die stoep sit en kyk hoe hulle swem! Dit was heerlik en veilig!

Me and my husband had a wonderful time.

Its a friendly and peaceful environment. The weather was wonderful.

Satisfying, relaxing, breathtaking, and peaceful.

Montagu springs is a must see. The staff is very friendly and accommodating, the chalets are very clean with excellent bedding and great matrasses. The kitchens are fitted with everything you would need. From butter knives to candle holders. There is aircon in all the units making it very pleasant in excessive heat. The pools are in sterling condition.

Relaxed.

Enjoyed the big sized cold pool. Warm pool a bit on the small side so landed up also paying day visitor fees for Avalon Springs to use their warm pools. All in all enjoyed the stay.

We enjoyed our stay.

Myself and my family enjoyed the stay, the only problem is that they should provide dish cloths and dry cloths, there was no hot water to bath or shower. We had to put on the kettle for hot water to wash other than that the place is fantastic, play park for kids my kids enjoyed it. The view of the mountain is amazing. The hot water pool is good. Nice facilities like the tennis court and football pitch and even bikes are good to have. The reception people are very friendly and understanding.

Was lekker.

Skoon en ruim. Oord goed versorg en was lekker stil want buite seisoen.

All Staff were polite and helpful.

Showering was a concern as the water temperature could not be balanced either extremely hot or suddenly cold. The tap in the shower was a concern.

Wonderlik en rustig.

Dis maar eemmaal lekker om wakker te raak in 'n stil en rustige atmosfeer. As jy uitstap op die stoep kyk jy teen 'n berguitsig uit. Dis wonderlik om die skone natuur so te beleef.

Lovely place to visit, remember September nights can get extremely cold.

Surrounding area also worth visiting.

Relaxing and quiet.

Had a relaxing overnight stay. Very enjoyable.

Very relaxing and enjoyable.

There isn't anything else to say. It was exactly what we were looking for.

Golden Terraces is actually an amazing place as it's a free standing unit with undercover parking just the WiFi is a bit slow there so I would recommend bringing along a router for just incase.

The location is perfect. The pricing at the bar is just a bit too much. But everything else is good. Especially the aircon in each room including the lounge. However please take along your own clothing iron. We had an amazing stay the only sad part was packing up to leave. All the workers from the security to the cleaner to the reception are very well mannered.

The fact that you pay and still have to deal with loadshedding is a bit of a downgrade and puts a hamper on your holiday.

You should not have to deal with loadshedding while on holiday.

Dit was een vir die boeke gewees. Lekker rustige naweek, net wat ons nodig gehad het.

Dit was baie lekker gewees, net om in die natuur te wees om 'n ander dorp te verken. Ons sal definitief weer hulle besoek.

Was baie rustig en stil, net wat ons makeer het.

Huisie kan meer modern toegerus word.

Fantasties.

Kan Montagu Spring vir enigeen aanbeveel. Vakansie daar was ongelooflik lekker aangesien daar gratis toegang tot swembaddens was a.g.v. van loadshedding. Sal definitief weer gaan.

Ons was by Montagu Springs vir 'n wegbreeknaweek.

Die registrasieproses het glad verloop. Die enigste ongerief is dat 'n mens na die kantoor moet gaan elke dag om 'n bandjie te kry om by die swembaddens in te gaan. Die woonkwartiere is knap, maar gemaklik en skoon. Daar was voldoende parkeerplek naby die huisie. 'n Lugversorger en lekker groot stoep om op te sit het die kuier meer aangenaam gemaak. Die uitleg, gras en tuine is uitstekend en goed versorg.

Extraordinary.

We are so happy with the good service we received and the unit was amazing for us. We enjoyed it and I will definitely come again.

Fantasties.

Rustigheid tussen die berge definitief 'n pluspunt.

Safe and quiet.

Comfortable, safe and quiet.

Very fun. Friendly. Pretty scenery of mountains and resort gardens.

A) The parking by Josmont Heights is very small. Not suitable for bigger vehicles. b) Wi-Fi reception of all Networks is problematic. c) Separation of the smaller warm baths. Far too few for the number of people, the Resort accommodates. The paid-for warm baths are equally too small for the number of people. d) Restaurant served good food, but the fried potato chips served at Springs Hotel need urgent urgent upgrading. Otherwise a nice breakaway.

Basic needs met.

The stay was pleasant. The chalets are a bit outdated, but meets the basic needs in that they have what one needs for a quick family getaway. I would add a light when load-shedding hits, but other than that, it was ample for what we needed.

Baie rustig.

Was baie ontspannend. Swembaddens was bietjie kouer as normaal a.g.v. loadshedding.

Ek en my familie het die rustigheid nodig gehad en dus was die plek baie toepaslik.

Ons het as 'n familie onsself baie geniet en die natuur is onbeskryflik. Baie dankie.

Fantasmagories.

Verblyf was lekker behalwe 1 van die huise was glad nie op standaard nie, min warm water en beddens se matrasse baie pap, groot teleurstelling.

Baie lekker.

Rustige atmosfeer en kindervriendelik.

Fantasties en rustig. Net wat ek nodig gehad het.

Rustig en waarde vir geld. Die uitsig was asemrowend. Ek het die plek baie geniet.

Ek het baie lekker gekuier. 'n Kommer vir my is die warmswembad. Daar is geen toilette naby nie. Ons naby toilette gebly. Mense vir ure daar gesit en kinders lank geswem. Waar urineer hulle? Dis nogal 'n kwessie. Sal dink dat daar toilette by die swembad moet wees.

Heerlik gekuier. Aircon baie gehelp in die koue. Die werkers was baie behulpsaam en vriendelik.

Relaxing untill our towels got stolen and was on edge.

Unfortunately, our towels were stolen off the washing line. Very sad though to think people would come to a resort to steal other people's belongings. The accommodation definitely needs an upgrade. It's been like this for the past 30 years.

Dit was orraait/so-so.

Warm swembaddens nie in werking nie a.g.v. instandhouding. Baie beknopte eenheid. Toilet en stort uiters beknop, toilet self was nie 100% reg nie. Tipe van 'n gasreuk in eenheid. Aircon ook buite werking.
