A small, intimate game lodge very well worth a visit. We shall return. Great staff, comfortable chalet with a cosy braai area, lovely pool (sadly too chilly for a dip this time!) and a great dinner in the new restaurant. The setting was so peaceful. Sadly the roads were in a bit of a state, but there had been lots of very heavy rain so I'm sure that will be rectified soon.

Very quiet, but very warm. Hot, expensive and not much to do. Can't drive the farm roads and there isn't much game, so no game tits either.

Baie rusig, maar baie warm. Warm, duur en nie veel om te doen nie. Kan nie die plaaspaaie gaan ry nie en daar is nie baie wild nie, dus ook nie wildtitte nie.

Beautiful scenery. Very peaceful place to stay and the atmosphere and nature are wonderful. We spotted a giraffe near our cottage, which made the time there extra special.

Pragtige natuurskoon. Baie rustige blyplek en die atmosfeer en natuur is wonderlik. Ons het 'n kameelperd naby ons huisie opgemerk, wat die tyd daar ekstra spesiaal gemaak het.

Most beautiful surroundings and accommodation. The surroundings are very beautiful and the silence gives one life again. The animals are a bonus that you can see so close.

Mooiste omgewing en verblyf. Die omgewing is baie mooi en die stilte gee 'n mens weer lewe. Die diere is 'n bonus wat jy so naby kan sien.

Well equipped chalet. Friendly welcome, clean and tidy with everything you need. Stars are incredibly beautiful. Worth a visit!

Goed toegeruste chalet. Vriendelik ontvang, skoon en netjies met alles wat jy nodig het. Sterre is ongelooflik mooi. 'n Besoek werd!

Unfortunately not as expected. We don't just complain about accommodation and usually overlook small things that might come up - but our stay at Klein Karoo Game Lodge was really very bad. I'm sorry to complain about this, but for the price we paid for the stay (discounted or not) it really wasn't ideal. We never received the code from the owners to get the keys to the gate and open the safe to receive the keys. So we stood outside the gate for 20 minutes to try to call the venue, but with poor reception in the area, we only got hold of the receptionist after 20 minutes, got the code and went in. We arrived at our place and unpacked and wanted to take a hot shower because it was cold and raining. We then found out after another 20 minutes of struggle, there is no hot water. Tried calling reception, couldn't get through due to weak signal Fortunately, my fiance then thought it good to walk around. We then saw that it was a gas geyser and the gas geyser was not connected. After a struggle we eventually got hold of reception and the lady said she was sending someone out. After another half hour, a maintenance man came out to connect the geyser. By this time we are lying in bed watching TV for the cold. We canceled our plans to drive around because we were waiting for the maintenance man. He had to come in to check the water, so couldn't just leave our stuff there alone. He was friendly and said there was a miscommunication. Even after my fiance helped him and kept turning the water on and off, the geyser was connected. The man then left and I tried to shower again. So we came after the water only got lukewarm. Luckily we know gas geysers and my fiance then went back and we found out the geyser was never set. He then warmed it up. We then also found out that the drain was blocked and the water was pushing up and the water was coming out at the side under the ground at the drain next to the house. By the time I'm tired of struggling so leave the shower and don't feel like switching it back on so it gets sorted out. Nevertheless, we checked in at the restaurant for dinner at 18h30. We then tell the manager/receptionist about the blockage. She then said they would sort it out tomorrow morning. Later she comes back and says that the owner says it's "normal" and "aspris" like that so the little flowers can get water. We immediately knew it was just an excuse because my fiance does maintenance and a blocked drain is definitely not "aspris" like that! We'll leave it there. The food was delicious and the waiter very friendly, but had to wait a long time for the bill and then stood at the counter for another 10 minutes waiting for the waiter who was busy in the kitchen. Back at the room I took a shower, the water didn't wash away and had to put a towel in front of the shower so the floor wouldn't get washed away. There is no door in front of the shower, so the towel had to do. My fiance showered in the morning and followed the same routine because the water does not drain in the shower. Long story short, we checked out in the morning and again struggled to check in so I could get the code to store the key in the safe as we drove out. It is a bitterly beautiful place and if it weren't for the plumbing problems, funny feedback and long wait at the restaurant, it would have been really nice. But for the price we paid, you at least expect the plumbing and geyser to be right. This should not be the guest's problem. I really hope we are the only guests who experienced that! The foreigners may think it's normal and that they're in the "wild", but as locals getting away for a weekend, it wasn't convenient at all. I would go so far as to say that the venue should actually give us a refund. They asked for a review, but I don't think they want to see our experience on a public platform. We are very sorry to complain, but I really just feel, if you are using your hard earned money to break away, then the "normal" things like hot water and plumbing should at least be in place!

Ongelukkig nie soos verwag nie. Ons kla nie sommer oor verblyf nie en kyk gewoonlik verby klein goedjies wat dalk opduik - maar ons verblyf by Klein Karoo Game Lodge was regtig bitter swak. Ek is jammer dat ek hieroor moet kla, maar teen die prys wat ons betaal het vir die verblyf (afslag of nie) was dit regtig nie ideaal nie. Ons het nooit die kode van die eienaars ontvang om die sleutels by die hek te kry en die safe oop te maak om die sleutels te ontvang nie. Ons het dus vir 20 min buite die hek gestaan om die venue te probeer skakel, maar met swak opvangs in die area, het ons evensueel na 20 minute eers die receptionist in die hande gekry, die kode gekry en ingegaan. Ons het by ons plekkie aangekom en uitgepak en wou 'n warm stort vat want dit was koud en het gereën. Ons kom toe agter na nog 'n 20 minute gesukkel, daar is nie warm water nie. Het reception probeer bel, kon nie deurkom nie a.g.v. swak sein. Gelukkig dink my verloofde dit toe goed om om te stap. Ons sien toe dis 'n gasgeyser en die gasgeyser is nie geconnect nie. Na 'n gesukkel kry ons toe eventually reception in die hande en die dame sê toe sy stuur iemand uit. Na nog 'n halfuur, kom daar toe 'n maintenance man uit om die geyser te kom connect. Teen hierdie tyd lê ons in die bed en kyk TV vir die koue. Ons het ons planne om rond te ry gekanselleer omdat ons gewag het vir die maintenance man. Hy moes inkom om die water te check, so kon nie ons goed net alleen daar los nie. Hy was vriendelik en het gesê daar was 'n miskommunikasie. Evensueel na my verloofde hom gehelp het en die water heeltyd aan- en afgesit het, was die geyser connect. Die man is toe weg en ek probeer weer stort. Dus kom ons toe agter die water raak net louwarm. Gelukkig ken ons gasgeysers en my verloofde is toe weer agtertoe en ons kom agter die geyser was nooit gestel nie. Hy stel dit toe warm. Ons kom toe ook agter die drein is geblok en die water stoot op en die water loop by die kant onder die grond by die drein langs die husie uit. Teen die tyd is ek moeg gesukkel so los die stort en nie lus om weer te skakel dat dit uitgesorteer word nie. Nietemin het ons om 18h30 ingeklok by die restaurant vir aandete. Ons sê toe vir die manager/receptionist van die blokkasie. Sy sê toe hulle sal dit môreoggend uitsorteer. Later kom sy terug en sê dat die eienaar sê dis "normaal" en "aspris" so sodat die blommetjies kan water kry. Ons weet toe dadelik dit is net 'n verskoning want my verloofde doen maintenance en 'n geblokkeerde drein is beslis nie "aspris" so nie! Ons laat dit toe daar. Die kos was heerlik en die waiter baie vriendelik, maar moes lank wag vir die rekening en toe nog 'n verdere 10 minute by die counter gestaan en wag vir die waiter wat agter besig was in die kombuis. Terug by die kamer het ek gaan stort, die water het nie weggespoel nie en moes 'n handdoek voor die stort sit sodat die vloer nie verspoel nie. Daar is nie 'n deur voor die stort nie, so die handdoek moes maar doen. My verloofde het die oggend gestort en dieselfde roetine gevolg omdat die water nie in die stort dreineer nie. Lang storie kort, ons het die oggend uitgeboek en weer gesukkel om in te skakel sodat ek die kode kan kry om die sleutel in die safe te bêre soos ons uitry. Dit is 'n bittere mooi plekkie en sou dit nie vir die plumbing probleme wees, snaakse terugvoer en lankwag by die restaurant nie, sou dit werklik lekker gewees het. Maar vir die prys wat ons betaal het, verwag jy minstens dat die plumbing en geyser reg is. Dit behoort nie die gas se probleem te wees nie. Ek hoop werklik ons is die enigste gaste wat die ondervind het! Die buitelanders dink dalk dis normaal en dat hulle in die "wild" is, maar as locals wat wegbreek vir 'n naweek, was dit glad nie gerieflik nie. Ek wil sover gaan om te sê dat die venue ons eintlik 'n refund moet gee. Hulle het gevra vir 'n review, maar ek dink nie hulle wil ons ervaring op 'n publieke platform sien nie. Ons is baie jammer dat ons kla, maar ek voel werklik net, as jy jou hardverdiende geldjie gebruik om weg te breek, dan moet die "normale" goedjies soos warm water en plumbing darem in plek wees!
