Beautiful location, but not quite the standard one expects. On arrival there was confusion about our booking as the dates St Ives had were different to those confirmed with us. Luckily they had a unit for us. The next day we asked for them to look into two power plugs in our room that were out of order and the lights that were on all night outside the unit's windows. We also wanted to know if we could get a curtain in front of the kitchen window and in front of the other windows, as advertised in their photos. We got no response. We booked seven nights, but it happened three times that our unit was still not serviced late in the afternoon, resulting in us having to sit around and wait. Reception's excuse was they are busy and many guests have come and gone. The unit is rather sparsely equipped without a few basic necessities of a self-catering place. Some of the sheets were torn. The location is beautiful and the unit is nice and spacious, but we would have enjoyed our stay more if they had paid attention to our requests and stepped up their service. The wild animals around the unit were a great treat, as was the swimming pool and the spacious premises.

Pragtige ligging, maar nie heeltemal die standaard wat ’n mens verwag nie. Met ons aankoms het verwarring oor ons bespreking geheers, want die datums wat St Ives gehad het, het verskil van dié wat met ons bevestig is. Gelukkig het hulle ’n eenheid vir ons gehad. Ons het die volgende dag gevra dat hulle kyk na twee kragproppe in ons kamer wat onklaar was en die ligte wat heelnag buite die eenheid se vensters brand. Ons wou ook weet of ons ’n gordyn voor die kombuisvenster kon kry en voor die ander vensters, soos geadverteer op hul foto’s. Ons het geen reaksie gekry nie. Ons het sewe nagte bespreek, maar dit het drie keer gebeur dat ons eenheid laatmiddag nog nie gediens is nie, wat daartoe gelei het dat ons moes rondsit en wag. Ontvangs se verskoning was hulle is besig en baie gaste het gekom en gegaan. Die eenheid is taamlik skrams toegerus sonder ’n paar basiese noodsaaklikhede van ’n selfsorgplek. Van die lakens was geskeur. Die ligging is pragtig en die eenheid is lekker ruim, maar ons sou lekkerder gebly het as hulle aandag aan ons versoeke gegee het en hulle diens opskerp. Die wilde diere om die eenheid was ’n groot bederf, so ook die swembad en die ruim perseel.

Relaxing and breathtaking. Stay was great, beautiful views and nice sized rooms. Only issue were the cockroaches and mosquitoes.

Excellent accommodation with a beautiful view! I had a lovely time with my friends. The rooms were lovely and neat. The bed is super comfy! I was not able to stay connected to the WiFi, which was a bit annoying, but you had warned us that it would be intermittent. The grounds and view of the dams from the rooms were stunning. We had a lot of fun swimming in the pool and had a good lunch at the BOMA. The kids enjoyed the climbing frames in the play area. My only gripe is that there was a strong sewage smell on the evening of the 31st Dec (from the family rooms) and we had no water on the morning of the 1st Jan (until we called the host and he came and switched on the water). I also didn't have hot water on the last morning (2nd Jan) in my single room, but I didn't call the host about it that time (probably should have). Overall, I was very pleased and will come back again.

Very nice place. The view from the rooms was not very nice. Slept and stayed well. The view from the room could definitely have been better.

Baie mooi plek. Die uitsig van die kamers af was nie baie nice nie. Lekker geslaap en gebly. Die uitsig vanaf die kamer kon beslis beter gewees het.
