Beautiful place with a friendly family that understands customer service.

We loved the whole experience, including (in no particular order) the wow garden, friendly service and lekker ad hoc chats, good breakfasts and nice rooms, and value for money. A hidden gemstone not to be missed!

Fantasties!

Die bosagtigheid en water features met koi-dam is so rustig. Die admin dame is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam! Het my verblyf baie geniet, en sal definitief die plek aanbeveel!

Fantastiese diens van begin tot einde.

Umlilo is voorwaar 'n baie lekker lodge en ek sal graag weer daar bly. Baie netjies, diens is uitstekend en kamers is baie gemaklik en goed toegerus. Die bestuur is voortdurend beskikbaar aan die gaste en hulle is vriendelik, behulpsaam en gee goeie raad oor die area en die dorp.

Umlilo is indeed a very nice lodge and I would love to stay there again. Very tidy, service is excellent and rooms are very comfortable and well equipped. The management is constantly available to the guests and they are friendly, helpful and give good advice about the area and the town.

This guesthouse is an absolute delight!

Umlilo's owners are very friendly and helpful. Hospitality is on the highest level. The waterfalls and sculptures in the beautiful garden makes this a tranquil oasis. The room is very comfortable and clean. Breakfast is excellent, Lourens’ braai is delicious. It was an absolute pleasure to stay in Umlilo Lodge. We hope to come back some day.

St Lucia is posh; a great place for both young and old with lots of activities taking place in surrounding areas. It's also safe.
