Very beautiful, calm, comfortable and the location is perfect. The customer service was very friendly. I sent in a request and they exceeded my expectations. Great place and owners.

Baie mooi, kalm, gerieflik en die ligging is perfek. Die kliëntediens was baie vriendelik. Ek het 'n versoek in gestuur en hul het meer as my verwagtinge gedoen. Puik plek en eienaars.

Lovely and peaceful few days. If you want a quiet and peaceful holiday or a few days away from the hustle and bustle of the city, then Blackwaters is the place to go!

Heerlike en rustige paar dae. As jy 'n stil en rustige vakansie of paar dae uit die stad se gewoel wil hê, dan is Blackwaters die plek om heen te gaan!

Nice option for a family. Lots of fun activities for the whole family. Our children thoroughly enjoyed themselves with the canoes, golf, swimming. Close enough to Buffalo Bay to go to sea soon.

Lekker opsie vir 'n gesin. Baie lekker aktiwiteite vir die hele gesin. Ons kinders het hulle behoorlik geniet met die kanos, gholf, swem. Naby genoeg aan Buffelsbaai om gou see toe te gaan.

Nice environment, staff willing to go the extra mile. By the river, green lawns, beautiful mountains and trees. Staff and especially Elmay willing to go the so-called extra mile. Luxury rooms with views of the garden, river and mountains!

Mooi omgewing, personeel bereid om ekstra moeite te doen. By die rivier, groen grasperke, mooi berge en bome. Personeel en veral Elmay bereid om die sogenaamde ekstra myl te loop. Luukse kamers met uitsigte op die tuin, rivier en berge!

Although the staff are friendly and the restaurant serves delicious meals, there is no room service. The rooms were full of cobwebs and lots of bugs, for sure long granted and reception said on arrival there was no room service (which I originally paid for and was impressed with) although they came to spray poison day 2 when we were done. It was uncomfortable because we were crawling with all the bugs. I would recommend that they clean rooms thoroughly and put fresh linen before guests arrive and service it daily, but the staff is very nice.

Hoewel die personeel vriendelik is en die restaurant heerlike maaltye bedien is daar geen kamerdiens. Die kamers was vol spinnerakke en baie goggas, dit het vir seker lank toegestaan en ontvangs het met aankoms gesê daar is geen kamerdiens (waarvoor ek oorspronklik betaal het en onder die indruk was) hoewel hulle het kom gif spuit dag 2 toe ons klaar was. Dit was ongemaklik omdat ons kriewelrig was met al die goggas. Ek sou aanbeveel dat hulle kamers deeglik skoonmaak en vars linne oortrek voor gaste arriveer en dit daagliks diens, maar die personeel is baie gaaf.

Disappointing, noisy, other guests don't consider fellow guests fellow guests. Rooms not serviced daily. Water high chlorine content it feels like you are shower with pool water. Noisy, was not an aha moment. We looked forward to tranquility. Breakfast cold and disappointing. Some maintenance in room needed. Our room was next to a service room and public toilet so was very noisy.

Very nice. We slept 3 nights and it was a feast. The place is clean, the service is great, the staff is friendly and helpful. The breakfast was delicious and the dinners were nice and homely.

Baie lekker. Ons het 3 nagte geslaap en dit was’n fees. Plek is skoon die diens puik, personeel is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die ontbyt was heerlik en die aandetes was lekker huislik.
