Rustig en ontspanning.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Lynette was baie behulpsaam en het vinnig gereageer op enige navrae. Die huis is pragtig en baie rustig. Ons het op dag 1 renosters by ons huis gesien.

Peaceful and relaxing.

We had a very nice stay. Lynette was very helpful and responded quickly to any queries. The house is beautiful and very peaceful. We saw rhinos at our house on day 1.

Puik wegbreek naweek in die Bos.

Ons het heerlik gebly in Shasha Lodge, soveel so dat ons 'n ekstra aand gebly het! Ons was 'n groep van 11 met 9 jong kinders. Daar was meer as genoeg slaapplek vir ons almal. Die kamers is ruim met goeie kwaliteit bedlinne en beddens. Badkamers ook ruim en skoon. Die ekstra bonus is die jacuzzi en die pooltafel. Ons het elke dag diere besoekers gehad, impala's, poue, selfs 'n trop apies. Die uitsig is baie mooi en die posisie puik. Die kinders het gaan visvang by Rocky's Fishing hole wat ek hoogs kan aanbeveel. Ons het ook deur Lynette 'n game drive bespreek en het impala's, koedoes, kameelperde, buffels, en selfs 'n renoster met kalf gesien. Ons sal vir seker weer kom kuier!

Great weekend getaway in the Bos.

We had a wonderful stay in Shasha Lodge, so much so that we stayed an extra night! We were a group of 11 with 9 young children. There was more than enough sleeping space for all of us. The rooms are spacious with good quality bed linen and beds. Bathrooms also spacious and clean. The added bonus is the jacuzzi and the pool table. We had animal visitors every day, impalas, peacocks, even a troop of monkeys. The view is very nice and the position great. The kids went fishing at Rocky's Fishing hole which I can highly recommend. We also booked a game drive through Lynette and saw impalas, kudus, giraffes, buffaloes, and even a rhinoceros with calf. We will definitely visit again!

Recommended for a large group and family get together.

Spacious and comfortable especially that we were a large group of people. Everything was nice and clean, and hiring the game drive vehicle for the day was an absolute must.

Pleasant stay. Beautiful lodge but overpriced.

The jacuzzi and pool with its views are nice. Unable to utilise boma area due to fire restrictions. Pool table and accessories need replacement. Game drive vehicle is an additional R1300 per day.

Shasha Lodge 's response

Hi Jacqueline. We appreciate your valued feedback. Unfortunately, we have not had much rain, and a regional open fire ban is in place. Sensitivity around fires is extreme as a result of huge veld fires that have destroyed numerous lodges in recent years. Therefore, until it rains, we cannot permit open fires as it's against the law, and we have to comply until the temporary open fire ban is removed. You did have access to a built-in braai and gas braai. The rental of a game drive vehicle or guided game drives is not included in the accommodation fee and is also advertised correctly. I am sorry that you felt disappointed.

Teleurstellende ervaring.

Die plek wat ons nog die minste geniet het in Cyferfontein. Tenspyte dat die plekkie so lekker uitleg het, het ons soveel probleme gehad. Die deure was stukkend en ons kon dus nie daai "outdoor indoors" gevoel geniet nie, wat vir ons een van die redes was om die plek te kies. En dit kon blykbaar nie reggemaak word nie. Ons game drive vehicle was nie daar toe ons opdaag nie en moes eers 'n klomp oproepe maak om dit reg te stel. Ons het toe een gekry wat so oud is soos vrot brood met stukkende meters dat jy dus nie weet hoeveel brandstof in is nie, en wat ongelooflik moeilik is om mee te ry, wat dit eintlik onaangenaam gemaak het. Die swembad lek, so ons moes hom eers weer volmaak die volgende dag. Dis ook glad nie 'n plek om te gaan om rustigheid te ervaar nie, aangesien dit voorkom asof groepe soentoe gaan om te "party". Die eerste aand was ons tot 2 uur die oggend wakker gehou deur 'n groep wat in 'n huis langs ons gekuier het, wat skree en vloek ingesluit het. Ons wag ook nog steeds vir ons deposito terug meer as 'n week later en met smeek. Ons sal dus definitief nie die plek aanbeveel of weer self gebruik nie.

Disappointing experience.

The place we enjoyed the least in Cyferfontein. Despite the fact that the place has such a nice layout, we had so many problems. The doors were broken and we could therefore not enjoy that "outdoor indoors" feeling, which for us was one of the reasons for choosing the place. And apparently it couldn't be fixed. Our game drive vehicle was not there when we arrived and had to make a bunch of calls to get it fixed. We then got one that was as old as rotten bread with broken gauges so you didn't know how much fuel was in it, and incredibly difficult to drive, which actually made it unpleasant. The pool was leaking, so we had to fill it up again the next day. It's also not a place to go to experience tranquility at all, as it seems like groups go to kiss to "party". The first night we were kept awake until 2 in the morning by a group visiting a house next to us, which included shouting and swearing. We are also still waiting for our deposit back more than a week later and begging. We will therefore definitely not recommend the place or use it ourselves again.

Baie mooi en 'n lekker familie-kuierhuis.

Oor die algemeen het ons baie lekker daar gekuier, die uitsigte is mooi, die kinders het heerlik gespeel en was veilig waar ons hulle kon dophou. Daar is meer as genoeg eetgerei, glase ensovoorts vir die 20 gaste plus mense van buite. Die geriewe in die huis is fantasties en daar is baie meer as wat 'n mens verwag van so 'n plek. Lynette het gehelp met die navrae. Die plek is baie mooi en ons kan sien daar is onlangs opgraderings gedoen. Die vloere was nie skoon met aankoms nie. En die addisionele beddegoed vir die bankbeddens is maar skaars. Ek sal die voorstel maak dat die plek daarin kan verbeter. En dalk skoonmaakdienste en die voertuie insluit by die prys nie as addisionele kostes aanheg nie (aangesien 'n mens nie in die gedeelte met eie vervoer kan ry nie). Die plek was ook net verder weg van Mabalingwe self as wat ek verwag het. Maar regtig 'n stunning plek, ons sien uit na ons volgende familienaweek daar!

Very beautiful and a nice family holiday home.

In general, we had a great time there, the views are beautiful, the children played wonderfully and were safe where we could watch them. There is more than enough cutlery, glasses and so on for the 20 guests plus people from outside. The facilities in the house are fantastic and there is much more than one would expect from such a place. Lynette helped with the enquiries. The place is very nice and we can see there have been recent upgrades. The floors were not clean on arrival. And the additional bedding for the sofa beds is rare. I would suggest that the place could improve in that. And perhaps cleaning services and the vehicles are not included in the price as additional costs (since one cannot drive in the section with one's own transport). The place was also just further away from Mabalingwe itself than I expected. But really a stunning place, we look forward to our next family weekend there!

The place looks nice and looks exactly like on the pictures.

The overall stay was pleasant, and the place looked nice, but the customer service is poor.

Hi Koena
Thank you for your feedback, however, it's too little information to work with. We would like to understand what difficulties you experienced during your stay with regards to customer service.
