I felt like I was at home but away from the busy city life. I loved that fact that there was no TV in the room and therefore my wife and I spent quality time together.
South AfricaBreakfast was very generous, the host and staff friendly and helpful especially with ideas on where to visit. The location is good as it not busy and therefore peaceful. Our room was comfortable, with everything needed. Cooling down in the pool after a long warm day was definitely a plus
South AfricaWe loved the place! Beautifully decorated, very clean and comfortable, located in a tropical garden with funny monkeys. There is a lot to do In the St.Lucia area. And the nature reserves (especially iSimangalido wetland park) are one of our favorites reserves in SA. We love hippos! The trips Joyce booked for us were perfect! She takes the time to understand what we wanted to do in a short time and her suggestions were always spot on. Joyce and Marcel are wonderful hosts and made our stay very special. We would love to come back!
