Incredibly delicious, beautiful and attention to detail was special. Definitely! Beautiful place with the most beautiful view and everything and more that one needs. The home-baked rusk, carrot cake and nougat sweets are a pleasant bonus!

Ongelooflik lekker, pragtig en aandag aan detail was spesiaal. Definitief! Pragtige plek met die mooiste uitsig en alles en meer wat mens nodig het. Die tuisgebakte beskuit, wortelkoek en nougat lekkers 'n aangename bonus!

Excellently equipped where we were properly spoiled by the owners. We had a lovely and peaceful time at Jovali. Not only was the accommodation high quality, but the scenery was beautiful. We will definitely stay there again.

Uitstekend toegerus waar ons behoorlik bederf was deur die eienaars. Ons het 'n heerlike en rustige tyd by Jovali gehad. Nie net was die blyplek van hoë gehalte nie, maar die natuurskoon was pragtig. Ons sal vir seker weer daar oornag.

A relaxed, beautiful destination. Lovely hosts and a beautifully decorated room. Such pride and care was taken with extra touches and a lovely chocolate cake to welcome us. Beautiful views. We were thoroughly spoiled.

Excellent, peaceful setting, we definitely recommend it. Second time we stay at Jovali's home in Clarens. In the 4 years since we last lived there, everything has only gotten better. The place is neat, reception friendly. Everything you will ever use is available in the residence. We regret that we only booked for one day. Thank you, greetings and thank you very much.

Uitstekend, rustige omgewing, ons beveel dit beslis aan. Tweede keer wat ons by Jovali tuis gaan in Clarens. In die 4 jaar wat ons laas daar tuisgegaan het, het alles net beter geword. Die plek is netjies, ontvangs vriendelik. Alles wat jy ooit sal gebruik is beskikbaar in die woonheid. Ons is spyt dat ons net vir eendag bespreek het. Dankie, groete en baie dankie.

Breathtaking, comfortable, relaxing, surprised, we had a great stay. We had a great stay and the host was very friendly and considerate. Each of us even received an unexpected Lindt Easter Bunny. The view of the mountains changes every day depending on the sun and the clouds, every day was more beautiful than the previous day.

Asemrowend, gemaklik, ontspannend, verras, ons het baie lekker gebly. Ons het baie lekker gebly en die gasheer was baie vriendelik en bedagsaam. Elk van ons het selfs 'n onverwagse Lindt Paashaas ontvang. Die uitsig oor die berge verander elke dag afhangend van die son en die wolke, elke dag was mooier as die vorige dag.

Enjoyed a lot. Coffee was too little. Very beautiful nature and place to stay! Room was not cleaned while we stayed there.

Baie geniet. Koffie was te min. Baie mooi natuur en blyplekkie! Kamer is nie skoon gemaak terwyl ons daar gebly het nie.

Thanks for your feedback, Fanie. We would like to remind you that Jovali Clarens is self-catering, although we provide coffee pods for each day, as well as instant coffee, tea and milk. We also state very clearly in our confirmation that our studios are not serviced for bookings of 2 nights or less. We trust you enjoyed the home-baked cake to celebrate your 25th wedding anniversary. Greetings, Johan and Tim

Dankie vir jou terugvoering, Fanie. Ons herinner jou graag dat Jovali Clarens selfsorg is, alhoewel ons koffiepeule vir elke dag voorsien, asook kitskoffie, tee en melk. Ons noem ook baie duidelik in ons bevestiging dat ons studios nie gediens word vir besprekings van 2 nagte of minder nie. Ons vertrou julle het die tuisgebakte koek om julle 25ste huweliksherdenking te vier, geniet. Groete, Johan en Tim

Comfortable and peaceful. The unit was very comfortable, tastefully decorated and well equipped. There is unfortunately no cleaning service, which is a big drawback, especially on holiday. The TV is very small and it's not a smart TV.

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us, Tracy! We are delighted to know that your stay with us was both comfortable and peaceful. Jovali Clarens is a self-catering establishment and therefore not serviced daily for short stays (as stated in the written confirmation received from us when you booked). We have taken note of your comments regarding the TV, but we find that most of our guests visit us to escape to the peace and tranquillity of our farm, and therefore the TVs are rarely used. Our Internet connection is provided via satellite causing lower bandwidth, therefore smart TVs would be rendered useless as the Internet speed is not fast enough to allow for streaming, hence a full DStv premium bouquet being provided to cater for all tastes. We hope that this did not affect your Clarens country stay too much though, and that you will return soon to experience the natural beauty of the Eastern Free State again. All our best, Johan and Tim
