Atmosfeer was rustig en skoon, die uitsig en weer was goed. Die gasvryheid van personeel en mede-vakansiegangers en die eetplek Charlie's Brewhouse was baie goed.

Atmosphere was calm and clean, the view and weather were good. The hospitality of staff and fellow holidaymakers and the eatery Charlie's Brewhouse was very good.
The chalet we were in was very clean and bigger than we expected, the rooms and beds were immaculately clean, the kitchen facilities and view near the lagoon and pools were good.

Disappointed.
Not at all like the photos on the web page and rooms don't look like that either, everything is old. The activities advertised are a joke vs what they really offer. I don't know how to classify that they have a kids club. Adult activities also not available. Please don't waste your time or money.

Enjoyed stay. Veldrift is central and could visit several West Coast villages.
WiFi reception is power, will need to install repeater to maintain stable internet connection. Room was not serviced, left the spare key for the person who has to clean the room. Amenities in room are good, except the cleanliness can improve a lot.

Fantastic stay!
This was a pamper weekend! The staff are particularly friendly and helpful, our unit was clean and tidy with modern facilities and comfortable beds. My kids could play to their heart's content while we watched them from the porch and we had a jetty right in front of our cottage where our boat was anchored, which was very convenient. This will definitely not be our last visit!

Everything was great and there was everything we needed. Staff excellent.
Although we asked to stay in an apartment with no stairs to climb, we still had to climb a set of stairs. We were in no 25 and had to climb up to 25 from the parking area. Fortunately, the staff were so friendly and arranged for a friendly porter to load our luggage onto a trolley and deliver it to our apartment. Thank you very much, it is appreciated.

No longer on standard.
New reception area, very nicely done. Apartment we stayed in needs serious maintenance. Walls, curtains, carpets, porch dirty. Gas bottle at braai was empty. One towel in unit when we arrived. Get the impression that management has no finger on the pulse. Parking area, balconies are used as storage areas. After our fifth visit, the general impression is that things are deteriorating rapidly.

Wet, cold and very windy in building. Poor planning.
The description of the complex and the photos do not give the real picture. The complex is extremely poorly planned, especially considering the climate. From the reception area you have to brave wind and rain up a slope to reach the lower level and then up an open double set of stairs to reach the second level to an open corridor in front of the residential units. If you like water sports this is very average accommodation. If not, it is not good at all.

Very relaxing.
We stayed four days and really enjoyed the time. Only problem was when a bunch of local people came to put their boat in the river on the Saturday night. It happened around 11 o'clock at night and was accompanied by a fair amount of noise and swearing. The "game room" for the children is a bit cramped, but otherwise we really enjoyed the stay.
