Amazing, peaceful, and beautiful.

Our stay was amazing, peaceful, and beautiful. Loved being in the bush and experiencing the lovely green scenery with a splash to cool down.

Tranquil, relaxing and calming getaway.

We had a lovely time at Basil's Boma - tranquil and relaxing - the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the busy city! The bush chalet unit was perfect. The bed was super comfortable, and we woke up to a lovely view in the mornings, where we then went for early morning hikes up the beautiful mountain. We loved that the kitchen was outside (it was very functional) and the braai area was so big. The wrap around patio with 3 wooden glass doors that opened provided a lovely breeze and openness to the place. It was wonderful that there was a small dipping pool for hot days, but it was freezing! Overall, we had the most amazing experience, and we will definitely be back!

Lekker privaat. Bietjie overpriced, te duur vir wat jy kry.

Vriendelike, goeie diens.

Stil, privaat en netjies.

Na 'n gesukkel met 'n plek wat op ons gekanselleer het kon ons by Basils Boma plek kry op kort kennisgewing en hulle het vir ons reg gestaan en ons op die hande gedra. Baie dankie vir die wonderlike diens en vriendelikheid. As ek julle 10 sterre kon gee dan het ek.

After a struggle with a place that canceled on us we were able to get a place at Basils Boma at short notice and they stood by us and carried us on their hands. Thank you very much for the wonderful service and kindness. If I could give you 10 stars then I would.

As jy wil weg breek van die stad se gejaag en geraas is dit die ideale plek. Basil en Joane is ongelooflik vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Die plek is amazing. Ideale naweek en wegbreekplek.

Dit was 'n luukste, stylvolle en gemaklike eenheid wat al ons verwagtinge oortref het.

Ons het vreeslik lekker gekuier en weer ons batterye herlaai vir die besige week.

Fantasties.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, die rustigheid van die natuur en sit om die kampvuur in die aand was kos vir die siel! Sal vir seker kan aanbeveel. Netjies, skoon en 10 uit 10 vir gasvryheid.
