Ongelooflik.

Alles was amazing! Baie rustige atmosfeer en baie lekker gerus. The only thing that wasn't so great was the hard bed.

Hippo Creek is amazing.

My stay here was great, even though it was cut short due to circumstances beyond their control. It's great value for money.

Dit was 'n besondere naweek. Baie dankie.

Carla en Philip was werklik goeie gasheer en dame. Sal werklik net 'n volgrootte duvet op die bed verkies. Verder alles goed.

It was a special weekend. Thank you very much.

Carla and Philip were really good host and lady. Would really prefer a full size duvet on the bed. Otherwise all good.

Pragtige ligging.

Alles was baie goed ingerig. Die enigste kritiek is dat daar te min parkeerplek is.

Everything was very well appointed. The only criticism is that there is too little parking.

Rustige tyd spandeer in die bos. Baie diere gesien.

Rustige tyd spandeer in die bos. Baie diere gesien en het die tyd daar baie geniet. Jammer daar was geen restaurant oop tydens ons verblyf nie. Daar is ook nie 'n mini-kombuis nie - slegs yskas en koffiestasie. Ons het wel benodigdhede van die kombuis gekry. Geen handdoekreelings in die badkamer nie.

Quiet time spent in the forest. Saw many animals.

Quiet time spent in the forest. Saw many animals and really enjoyed the time there. Sorry there was no restaurant open during our stay. There is also no mini-kitchen - just a fridge and coffee station. We did get necessities from the kitchen. No towel rails in the bathroom.

As a B&B it is ok but needs attention to details.

The accommodation was not specifically advertised as a bed and breakfast. There is no kitchenette.

Would have hoped for a bit more for the price.

Enjoyed the stay. However, the resort is not properly advertised in the sense that it is a bed and breakfast, but the breakfast was not available. WiFi is very poor or nonexistent. There was no mention that guests need to use their own DStv or Netflix account details to connect. There was also no basic soap or hand wash in the bathrooms.

Birding was our highlight.

We were the only guests. We were given the darkest room out of all the rooms. There was no view because of an outside shower wall. We had to pay R275 for a very basic breakfast. We were not impressed.
