Not pleasant.

Host was unaware of my booking on arrival. I was told that both the unit I had booked, as well as the one similar to that were fully booked. After some negotiating, I was given the unit. The unit was not clean, floor was dirty, curtains were dirty. A real pity, as the location is lovely, and with a little love and care, it could be a great option. Unfortunately I did not have a good experience, and won't be returning.

Helpful, friendly and very accommodating.

I had a team of 5 that worked in the area and found Fels Retreat perfectly located. They were very accommodating in the change of our program. I would recommend this to anyone visiting the area either for work or just an easy get away.

What a great place to stay and relax.

What a fantastic place to stay. Our room was comfortable with en-suite shower and toilet, hot water and towels provided. Rooms were serviced and kept clean. Great atmosphere and large open lawns for activities. Horses, dogs, a tame lamb and a cat all added to the homely feel of Fels Retreat. Sarina always on hand to attend to requests - she even had a pair of water pump pliers handy when I needed one! Highly recommended, and I will definitely be returning there again, probably in December.

Hallo Glen,

Thank you, it was a great pleasure having you here. Will be looking out for your December booking.

It was great to experience the warm personality of Sarina with cold winter nights in KZN.

It's my second time that I stayed overnight and I will definitely do so it again. Maybe a recommendation that there be two prices for breakfast, a small and a large breakfast one can choose from. I always feel welcome and it's a lovely place to stay overnight from Richards Bay to Gauteng.

Dit was heerlik om warm persoonlikheid van Sarina te ervaar saam met koue winternag in KZN.

Dis my tweede keer dat ek daar oornag en ek sal definitief dit weer doen. Miskien 'n aanbeveling dat daar twee pryse vir ontbyt sal wees, 'n klein en 'n groot ontbyt wat mens van kan kies. Ek voel altyd welkom en dis 'n heerlike plek om te oornag van Richardsbaai na Gauteng.

Dit lyk nie regtig soos die fotos nie. Die verblyf was so-so. Die gemeenskaplike kombuisie was bepaald onder-standaard - ek kan dit nie aanraai nie.

Is dit net ek wat vol fiemies is? Die prys was eintlik nie duur nie - nou weet ons hoekom. Die berg agter die huis is 'n mooi agtergrond. Die ligging is eintlik nogal interessant, maar die inrypad vanaf die straat is lanklaas geskraap. Die hek het 'n knoppie, maar dis nie 'n deurklokkie nie; Dit is 'n skandeerder vir die hek. Moes 3 keer toeter druk om aandag te trek. Die afdak waarlangs ons gestop het was vol met skroot material, braairoosters ensovoort. Daar was darem vriendelike honne en 'n ponie of 2 wat kom groet het. Die kamers was skoon, maar die meubels oud. Die kopstuk van die bed was 'n ou staal venster-raam. Oulike idee, behalwe dat daar nog stukkies glas in was - eina! Die badkamer het 'n stort en 'n ander deel van die badkamer het 'n ou toilet en 'n klein wasbakkie - redelik afgeleef. Mens kan die middelmuur uitbreek en 'n baie beter badkamer bou. Miskien is ons net die tipe kliënte wat nie hier tuishoort nie. Dit het die indruk gegee dat dit meer 'n trou-geleentheid is. Ons het geselligheid gemis. Daar was bv. nie 'n stoep voor die huisie nie - net 'n afgetrapte trappie en gras en 'n draad-tafel uit 1921 (omtrent). Die "eetvertrek" waar ons soggens ons eie ontbyt gemaak en geëet het, was 'n splitpaal tipe lapa met 'n enkel kombuisie waar ek nie graag iets sal wil kook nie. Bietjie grillerig. So, in opsomming, skuus, maar ek sal nie die plek aanbeveel nie, tensy daar werklik moeite gedoen word om die ruimte netjies te maak nie. Miskien is dit net nie ons tipe van plek nie - of is ons net vol fiemies?

Fels Retreat Lodge's response

Ek is regtig jammer as dit julle ervaring was. Die algemene terugvoer wat ek gekry het is dat die fotos die waarheid is. Miskien is 'rustic' net nie die ding vir julle nie, dit is die tema hier. Ou meubels, en kreatief. Miskien moet 'n mens maar gaan vir duurder plekke as jy dit kan bekostig.
Vriendelike groete,
Sarina

Gemaklik, huislik en rustig.

Sal dit beslis aanbeveel vir iemand wat wil kom rus en ontspan. Dis 'n mooi plekkie netjies ingerig met 'n huis like atmosfeer en die diens is onverbeterlik.

Fels Retreat Lodge's response

Beste Marisa,

Dit was heerlik om julle hier te kon ontvang en ek is bly julle is weer veilig tuis.

Hoop om julle weer eendag te sien.

Mooi omgewing, maar blyplek nie skoon.

Die omgewing was baie mooi. Die oord is baie mooi en mooi geleë. Die eenheid waarin ons gebly het was nie goed versorg nie en was vuil.

Fels Retreat Lodge's response

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Ek hou daarvan om te hoor as dinge nie op standaard was nie maar ek sou nog meer daarvan gehou het as julle dit ook persoonlik vir my kon noem. Dit maak dit net makliker om dit dan vir my werkers te wys. Dit hou hulle ook op hulle tone.
Baie dankie
Groete
Sarina

Lovely venue.

Guest toilet flush mechanism needs maintenance. Room B9 - the cold water tap needs to be tightened. The toilet cistern is inclined to leak into the bowl.

Breathtaking place, peaceful and felt at home.

Thank you very much for the hospitality and all of the animals who welcomed us. We really enjoyed our stay and the peacefulness was great. Will be back soon.

Asemrowende plekkie, rustig en het so tuis gevoel.

Baie dankie tannie vir die gasvryheid en ook aan al die diere wat ons so mooi verwelkom het. Ons het die tydjie daar so baie geniet, die rustigheid weg van die stad af. Ons hoop om gou weer terug te kom.

Die rustigheid vanself.

Dit was regtig 'n rustige atmosfeer waar jy verdwaal tussen die berge en die nostalgie van plaaslewe. Sal kan doen met iets meer vir die kinders, 'n beter speelpark, miskien 'n swembad, of selfs 'n trampolien. Dis definitief weer ons slaapplek volgende keer.

Lovely setting but a bit outdated, needs a revamp.

Everything was fine except the room we stayed in needs attention, its outdated and a bit run down. The lady who runs Fels Retreat was very friendly and breakfast was good.

Thank you so much for your feedback and advice, I have since started to revamp the room. It was nice having you here.
