    We were allocated Room 3 for our first night which was really noisy but the Manager was so helpful and moved us to another room for the second night which was divine.

    Breakfast was awesome, wine is excellent and just the location is superb

    Beautiful estate with stunning views and great service. Villas are a must!

    Unfortunately, the fourth room we booked which was the one-bedroom hotel room had a persistent sewage smell coming from the bathroom. It seemed to be a plumbing issue. Despite raising it with staff, there was no resolution offered and no other rooms available, which really impacted the experience for the individual in our party staying in that room. We also paid nearly the same as the 1br villa rate for this room that was significantly smaller and had no comparable view – the value just for this room didn’t stack up.

    The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel so welcome. Breakfast was fresh and delicious each morning, and both our dinner at the restaurant and room service were excellent. The views overlooking Stellenbosch are breathtakingm even in the rain! We were there for a wedding, so didn’t get to make the most of the amenities, but the one & two bedroom villas themselves were absolutely beautiful and felt like great value for money.

    We absolutely enjoyed our stay. The villa was marvelous with a large bed and a huge living room/kitchen. The whole premises was spotless. Samatha has hospitality in her blood. She had a geniune interest in her guest. She organized a perfect day trip with an outstanding driver for us. The restaurant serves first class dinner. We would stay at Clouds Estates anytime again.

    Absolutely the most beautiful place I have ever stayed. The view, the luxury yet very comfortable estate felt perfect. Just magical in every way. Service and food were excellent - best breakfast, snacks, fresh salads and delightful dinner selections. The wine, beautiful private vineyard-overlooking the cloud laced mountains and valleys below made for life time memories.
