If you love nature, I recommend Forest Lodge for you.

Our stay was the best. The room was clean and the breakfast was nice with a variety of food to choose from. Oh, and the view was out of this world!

Modern stay in St. Lucia.

It's a bit more like a hotel, but it is a good place to stay. Good location, medium sized rooms with bathroom. Friendly, personal. There is a beautiful courtyard and several sitting areas. Nice place to stay.

Vriendelike staf, ruim kamers, fantastiese ontbyt, wonderlike uitstappies.

Die staf was altyd behulpsaam, en Bheki, ons toeroperateur, was baie goed ingelig.

Baie netjies en skoon. Vriendelike personeel.

Die admin is nie reg nie. Hulle moet asseblief net werk aan die admin-gedeelte. Eers het hulle ons lêer misplaas en toe die verkeerde inligting neergeskryf oor die aantal dae en die bedrag wat ons reeds betaal het.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Very neat and clean. Friendly staff.

The admin is not right. Please they should just work on the admin part. First they misplaced our file and then wrote down the wrong information about the number of days and the amount we had already paid.

Dit was baie genotvol.

Ons het dit terdeë geniet. Almal was verskriklik vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ek wens die res van Suid-Afrika was so.

It was very enjoyable.

We thoroughly enjoyed it. Everyone was incredibly friendly and helpful. I wish the rest of South Africa was like this.

Baie mooi atmosfeer in die natuur met vriendelike diens.

Ons het in Kamer 2 gebly, wat mooi weggesteek was buite. Kamers is baie mooi toegerus, ons het wel gevind dat die kamer nog nie volledig toegerus was nie (dak was nog nie klaar geverf nie) en die toilet het 'n baie ou toiletdeksel opgehad. Kos was nie van 'n baie goeie standaard nie, en ons het op ons tweede dag gekies om eerder die Wimpy te besoek. Diens is van 'n baie goeie standaard en vriendelik ook. Ons handdoeke was nooit vervang nie, en ons moes vra vir 'n tweede handdoek op ons aankoms, en weer daarna vir nuwe handdoeke op ons derde dag. Ons het gevind dat die stort en vloer nie behoorlik skoongemaak was van vorige besoekers nie, met seepmerke en sand/modder op die vloere, sowel as 'n taai ketel-tafel. Die plasing van die gastehuis is baie mooi en het gemaak vir uitstekende fotografie geleenthede!

Very nice atmosphere in nature with friendly service.

We stayed in Room 2, which was hidden outside. Rooms are very nicely furnished, we found that the room was not yet fully equipped (the roof was not painted yet) and the toilet had a very old toilet cover. Food was not of a very good standard, and we chose to visit the Wimpy on our second day. Service is of a very good standard and friendly too. Our towels were never replaced and we had to ask for a second towel on our arrival, and again for fresh towels on our third day. We found that the shower and floor were not properly cleaned from previous visitors, with soap marks and sand/mud on the floors as well as a sticky kettle table. The location of the guesthouse is very beautiful and made for outstanding photography opportunities!

Aangenaam.

Lekker plek, maar dubbelverdieping is 'n probleem as jy 'n baba het en baie bagasie moet afdra.

Pleasant.

Nice place, but double floor is a problem if you have a baby and have to carry a lot of luggage down.

Netjies, nuut en goed geleë.

Mens kan maklik na die hoofstrate stap en na die strande ry. Nuut en moderne plek, goed geleë en netjies. Sal voorstel dat hul 'n kragopwekker aankoop want die krag was vir 'n dag af en dan werk die waterpompe vir die storte nie. Ontbyt was eenvoudig, maar voldoende. Ons het by Monzi-toere die voldag rit na Cape Vidal bespreek - dit was die toppunt van die kuier en ons kan dit aanbeveel. Hoop hulle kry baie reën, die vleilande is verskriklik droog.

Neat, new and well located.

One can easily walk to the main streets and drive to the beaches. New and modern place, well located and tidy. Would suggest they buy a generator because the power was out for a day and then the water pumps for the showers didn't work. Breakfast was simple but adequate. We booked the full day trip to Cape Vidal with Monzi tours - it was the highlight of the visit and we can recommend it. Hope they get a lot of rain, the wetlands are terribly dry.
