Alles was so mooi, netjies en die ligging van die Lodge is perfek. Lief die plek.

Was een van ons lekkerste verblyf ooit. Vriendelike personeel en die lekkerste ontbyt. Maria is die beste gasheer.

It was a very pleasant stay.

There seemed to be some confusion when I checked in, even though I received confirmation from the host when changes were made. All in all, it was still a very pleasant stay.

Storms River Guest Lodge 's response

Thank you Neevesh for the feedback. I'm sorry about the confusion. I think it was just a matter of a very busy period. But I am glad to hear that you had a pleasant stay. Hope to see you again. Kind regards, Maria Palm

Baie aangenaam, fantastiese ligging,ontbyt was heerlik.

Kinders het die vriendelike honde en swembad baie geniet. Die dubbelbed se matras waarop ons geslaap het in die gesinskamer was egter nie baie gemaklik nie en het ook heeltyd geraas as mens omdraai. Behalwe vir dit, was dit baie lekker en aangenaam.

Very pleasant, fantastic location, breakfast was delicious.

Children really enjoyed the friendly dogs and swimming pool. However, the double bed mattress we slept on in the family room was not very comfortable and also made noise all the time when turning over. Other than that, it was very nice and enjoyable.

Hi Karen,
Thank you for your review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and that the children loved playing with the dogs. I am so sorry to hear about the double bed. We will definitely look into it and maybe we will have to replace. Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We hope to see you again sometime.

Netjies kamers met goeie ligging.

Verblyf was netjies, hoewel kamers effens warm was. Gelukkig was daar ‘n heerlike, koel swembad. Die ontbyt die volgende oggend was uitstekend! Ons het ook by die lodge goeie advies oor restaurante en aktiwiteite in die dorp ontvang.

Nice but one detail was unacceptable.

All was great but the bathroom door did not have a handle and there was no way to close it. It was opening up all the time and we had to block it with a folded newspaper (!) every time someone wanted to use the toilet. It was very disappointing and perhaps alright for a 1-star-establishment but not for 3 stars. It's a minimum requirement to have a working door in the bathroom so that people can at least have some privacy.

Dear Wieslaw,

Your feedback and comments are always appreciated to ensure quality service. I checked personally on the bathroom door of the room that you occupied and it in perfect working order. Did you maybe confuse our guest house with another?
