    Veki was so gracious and warm. We got invited to a party, she let us rent a car from them, they were so attentive all during our stay. She and her partner are artists and the whole place is filled with amazing artwork. Highly recommend staying here!

    The cottage was dark/cold inside due to the high hedges. IMO, it would be better to trim the greenery to allow some light in.

    Cozy accommodation near the city and everything else you need while in Mbabane.

    I didn't expect staff to come into our room. The apartments are labeled as "self catered" so I wasn't expecting to have our apartment cleaned. I think if this is a normal practice at the facility you should let your guests know that, it felt a bit like an invasion of privacy to be honest, but no harm no foul.

    The accommodation was in a nice neighborhood within quick driving distance to Mbabane and good restaurants. Veki was friendly and gave lots of recommendations about what to do in our short time there. I appreciated that and we followed her suggestions to a T and had a great time.

    The hosts were amazing - so friendly and welcoming. The location was perfect and the house was very comfortable and well-equipped. We walked only 1km from the house to find boulders and a lush little forest to explore with our little girl which was a great bonus.

    Nothing. Only that it may not be suitable if you don’t have a car.

    It was in a secluded area, very private, you can easily find it by car. The cottage we had was very nice, it looked better and newer in reality than ob the images. Our family loved the pool and Veki, the lovely owner.

    The moment you arrive, you will be supprise from the nice hospitality from Veki and David, they are so kind and they can help you with any issue. The view is beautiful and charming. The rooms are cozy and nice decorated. I could give this experience 10 out of 10. just advise you to come with a car and buy a Swazi SIM card if you want to move around.

    No big disappointments, but if we have to find elements of improvement: The shower was in the bathtub, with little water pressure. The road to the premises is very steep and not tarred. I wonder if we would have made it in our twoweeldrive with suboptimal tyres if there would have been rain.

    The pool looks nice. It was too cold to swim, so we didn’t use it. The room was spatious, and the kitchen had all we needed.
