    Everything was absolutely fantastic! The staff, food, cleanliness, and the location. I'm a hiker, and the resort backed up onto the Drakensberg Gardens National Park, so many fantastic hikes. After a long day out on the trail, I could come back to a lovely room and relax, go to the sauna, or get a massage. Views were absolutely stunning! And if you have children, it's a fantastic place to take them: playground, swimming, canoeing on a safe pond, horseback riding, mini golf, zipline, etc, etc.

    The attention to detail both in the chalets as well as the whole resort. Gardens lush and beautiful. Bird life, views of the river and the mountains, hearing the cow bells and call of the herd men. Having no load shedding was a huge plus! Chalets have all you need, are comfortable with good quality linen on the beds.

    Theres plenty to do and see, its a real destination. A few days here melt away in the mountains. Especially great if you enjoy hiking and being outdoors. Food options range from independent restaurants to grand resort buffets and be sure to try Chocolate memories of you have a sweet tooth. Its pretty much a one road tourist town and is super easy to navigate. It's where I run whenever I get a free weekend.

    Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

    There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.
