Sungubala Eco Camp

The definition of warm hospitality!

Absolutely incredible! It is difficult to describe the level of hospitality we experienced. We nearly got stuck in the snow and for the last hour of our drive, Lawrence was checking in with us every 15 minutes, seeing if we needed assistance, offering to come fetch us, making sure we were safe. We were redirected to The Cavern, owned by the same family, as Sungubala was inaccessible and spent our time there feeling entirely welcome! I cannot recommend these two properties highly enough. We will definitely be returning to both in the future!

Excellent.

It was perfect in so many ways, just loved it there.

Brilliant stay in the best location.

Sungubala is a beautiful, rustic camp in the Drakensberg and our stay was great!

Rus, rus en nog rus!

Ja, baie lekker gebly. Gratis bottel wyn ontvang vir die fout op hulle stelsel.

Very comfortable and enjoyable.

Beautiful location, with stunning views, great birding, botanising and walks!

Pragtige omgewing. 'n Ruskans weg van die stad.

Sungubala is die perfekte plek vir asemrowende natuurskoon, stilte en rustigheid. As jy wil wegkom van die stad se bedrywighede, as jy hou van stap of bergfiets ry, dan is Sungubala die perfekte plek om te gaan. Wonderlike personeel laat jou dadelik tuis voel. Dis redelik afgeleë, maar absoluut die moeite werd!

Sielsverrykkend.

Asemrowende natuur, pragtige staproetes en net wat nodig is om batterye te herlaai sommer omtrent op ons agterstoep.

Goeie bestemming met vriendelike en hulpvaardige personeel.

Die akkommodasie was skoon en voldoende. Die personeel vriendelik en behulpsaam en die berg soos altyd inspirerend mooi.

Stunning location with comfortable, value for money rooms.

The mountain landscape provides a dramatic backdrop to the Sungubala Eco Camp. The camp has very comfortable accommodation with a communal boma that has a self-catering kitchen, braai area and lounge complete with a cosy fireplace. This makes the camp ideal for large groups as the communal area keeps things social yet the separate rooms offer some privacy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive. We had an amazing stay and wished we could have stayed longer.

It is located in one of the best areas in South Africa.

Nice clean and quiet place. With lovely hiking trails.

Rondavel accommodation.

Three of us stayed in the twin rondavels and used the shared kitchen and lounge, only we were the only ones staying in the rondavels, so had the place to ourselves. It was quiet and tranquil. We did all the marked walks which were clearly marked and maintained. The scenery was breathtaking and the wildlife abundant. It really was a memorable stay and would thoroughly recommend it to others.

Nie waarde vir geld nie. Uiters teleurgesteld.

Die ligging is baie mooi tussen die berge, en die kamers het 'n mooi uitsig op die berge, behalwe die takke en bome voor ons eenheid kon “getrim” geword het om 'n mooier uitsig te hê. Ek verstaan dis 'n Eco kamp en omgewingsvriendelik maar nêrens het hulle gesê jy mag nie jou hare droogblaas nie? Dis amper winter en baie koud op die berg, so as iemand vir 'n winter soontoe gaan, maak maar seker jy vat genoeg dry shampoo saam! Daar is nie 1 "plug" in die kamer om jou foon te charge nie, jy moet maar in die kombuis/kuierplek gaan sit terwyl jou foon charge. Met ons aankoms moes ons ook 5 minute by reception wag voor 'n werker vir ons kom sê het ons kan maar kamp toe ry, iemand wag daar vir ons, waar ons daar ook 5 minute moes wag. Die plek se maintenance kan definitief verbeter, al die bosse en takke vat die hele view weg. Ons het 'n rondawel gehad, met net die slaapplek en 'n badkamer. Daar was nie eers 'n ketel of yskassie nie, jy moet gesamentlik die kombuis en yskaste gebruik en hoop iemand steel nie jou goed in die yskas nie. En met so mooi uitsig (let wel net aan die een kant van die vertrek se venster waar nie bome of bosse jou uitsig "spoil" nie) kan mens nie eers sit en 'n koppie koffie geniet in die bed in die oggend nie, tensy jy in die koue al die pad kombuis toe loop, koffie maak en al die pad weer terug loop kamer toe. Ons het Vrydagaand by 1 plek geslaap en Saterdag by Sungubala Eco Camp, daar was 'n prys verskil van R200 en ons was uiters teleurgesteld in wat ons gekry het vir ons waarde vir geld by Sungubala in vergelyking met ons slaapplek van Vrydagaand.

Spectacular!

What an incredible weekend! Sungubala is so beautiful, the facilities are well maintained, the staff are delightful and the hikes are breath taking. The best weekend getaway I’ve had for awhile. 10/10 would recommend.

Baie mooi plek! Geen kragprop in kamers......

Geen kragprop in kamers en ligte uit om 22.00.

Gesellig, gemaklik en veilig.

Pragtige uitsig oor die berge, met 'n skoon omgewing en vriendelike diens.

Amazing location with awesome hiking trails and friendly staff.

We had a lovely stay while doing the Run the Berg event. We stayed in the spacious rondavel and even though the unit did not have a kitchen we had an entire fridge to ourselves in one of the communal kitchens. Lovely braai and dining area with everything you could need and breathtaking views all around. We had a great experience.

Asemrowend mooi natuur.

Baie stil en goed. Hou van die feit dat daar net solar en gas is. Kom bietjie weg van die tegnologie, maar was teleurgesteld oor groepie mense wat kom raas en ons verblyf onaangenaam kom probeer maak het. Die oppasser was onder die invloed van drank.

Plenty of incompetency.

Poor service, poor value for money.
