Was rustig.

Die eenheid was lekker, maar die swembad en swembad area was vuil.

Very quiet if you're just going to sleep over.

This could be a very nice resort but needs a lot of attention, tlc. This resort is for sale. Lots of potential but at this stage I won't be able to recommend anyone until the place is fixed. My opinion.

Serenity, peaceful is all I can say about the place.

Stay was okay. The place is beautiful but needs maintenance. Couldn’t use the pool because it was dirty and there were weeds all around that side; it felt like a ghost town. The room was super clean except for the outdoor shower that had green mould; had to ask them to come and clean it. It would also be nice to have an iron in the room.

The owner was rude and the place was not clean.

It was dirty, no soap, towels, shower caps. There was no TV, not even coffee.

Peaceful.

We were greeted with a smile by the owner and immediately felt at home. Our room was located in a peaceful area of the lodge and it was truly beautiful, clean, and tidy. We will definitely return again.

It was a wonderful stay and a beautiful, tranquil environment. The customer service was fantastic.

We really enjoyed our trip and the friendly, accommodating ladies that welcomed us and our fur babies. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Was die perfekte plek vir 'n vinnige wegbreek see toe.

Diens was uitstekend. Ons woefies het dit ook baie geniet. Ons kamer was die enigste een sonder 'n erf so dit was 'n klein bietjie gesukkel met die honde, maar anderste was als perfek.

Was the perfect place for a quick getaway to the sea.

Service was excellent. Our little ones also enjoyed it a lot. Our room was the only one without a yard so it was a little bit difficult with the dogs, but everything else was perfect.

Best honeymoon destination with our fur babies.

We spent our honeymoon at the wonderful and beautiful Firefly Eco lodge. We were ecstatic to be able to take our fur babies with us (which had the time of their lives lounging on the stoop and meeting the owners' fur babies for breakfast each morning). I will definitely be going back on our wedding anniversaries in the future and recommend that families with fur babies stay at Firefly Eco Lodge and enjoy the very tranquil nature surrounding them. I would also like to say thank you to the owners that made our experience a memorable one. Hope to hear about the puppy passports soon.

Nie waarde vir geld nie.

Die verblyf wat ons bespreek het was vir selfsorgeenhede. Die eenhede was glad nie voldoende toegerus vir vir selfsorg nie. Dit was ongelooflik moeilik om kos te maak. Die eenhede was ook swak toegerus in alle opsigte. Hul noem ook nêrens dat hul op terrasse geleë is nie en dat hul glad nie bejaard of gestremd-vriendelik is nie.

Not value for money.

The accommodation we booked was for self-catering units. The units were not at all adequately equipped for self-catering. It was incredibly difficult to make food. The units were also poorly equipped in all respects. They also do not mention anywhere that they are located on terraces and that they are not elderly or disabled-friendly at all.

Absolutely amazing. Beautiful place, gorgeous views. Spacious and comfortable.

Loved the cottage. Beautiful, clean and spacious. Lovely braai area and pool. We enjoyed the walk trail to the dam. I wouldn't mind to visit them again.

Baie rustige omgewing.

Die eienaars is baie besorg oor hul gaste se gemak, vriendelik en onmiddellik beskikbaar om te help en neem duidelik die 'Eco' deel in die naam ernstig op met hoe mooi hulle na die natuur kyk om die wild te versorg. Vir 'n langer selfsorgperiode kan die kombuis werksoppervlaktes dalk net 'n bietjie knap raak.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very peaceful environment.

The owners are very concerned about their guests' comfort, friendly and immediately available to help and clearly take the 'Eco' part in the name seriously with how well they look after nature to look after the wildlife. For a longer self-catering period, the kitchen work surfaces might just get a little neater.

Fantastiese plek. Hondevriendelik. Puik.

Skoonste van plekke. Gerieflik. Maklik om te kry. Ons kon kos bestel voor ons aankoms. Die eienaars het regtig uit hul pad gegaan. Ons sal hulle vir seker aanbeveel.
