Beautiful. Quiet with gorgeous scenery.

Absolutely stunning. Peaceful away from city life. Loved it. So stylishly decorated. Loved the attention to detail.

Die beste plek om sielsrus te kry!

Die rustigheid is presies wat nodig is wanneer mens se lewe gekenmerk word met stadsgejaag. Karusa is kos vir die siel!

The best place to find peace of mind!

The tranquility is exactly what is needed when one's life is characterized by city rush. Karusa is food for the soul!

Lieflike huis.

Slegs 1 waaier om te deel tussen 2 kamers, glad nie ideaal vir Oudtshoorn se hitte nie. Kommunikasie kan gerus gegee word oor sleutel se optel en afsit 'n dag voor die bespreking.

Lovely house.

Only 1 fan to share between 2 rooms, not ideal at all for Oudtshoorn's heat. Communication can be given about key pick-up and drop-off a day before the reservation.

The cottage is neat and clean and very well equipped, but some important services were missing.

We found out in the afternoon that the gas geyser is not working, call Danielle, she says we just have to connect to the second bottle, do a test like this and the geyser works. At 10 o'clock in the evening, 1st person out of 4 took a shower, then the gas ran out again, so the 2nd bottle was never filled, 3 people could not take a shower. The next morning we can't make any tea or coffee because the gas stove doesn't work (2 gas bottles empty) and there is no electric kettle, call for service but no signal, Danielle doesn't get our message. Anyway there was no sugar, about 200ml of milk which is too little for 4 cups of coffee, and no breakfast snacks, biscuits or fruit as advertised. The wine tasting facility was already closed when we arrived there at 14h00, and we planned to eat late afternoon at the restaurant, while it also closed at 14h30, so we could only order a cheese plate for dinner. If we had known the restaurant's hours, we could have prepared. It was not a good experience, we chose the peace and quiet, surrounded by the beautiful nature/mountains, and precisely because the restaurant is on the farm, it was preferred in our choice, because a good meal always goes along with quality time, and who wants to go to bed dirty now, we specially tested everything and let them know the gas was finished, they should have come out and made sure the 2nd bottle was full enough. Getting up in the morning without coffee is unforgettable! I've never had a complaint about a place to stay, and this was not an unpleasant place, the communication and service just needed some serious attention, and unfortunately it completely defeated the purpose of our overnight stay and visit. It was a waste of money. Maybe I should have let Danielle know we wanted to eat in the restaurant early in the evening, then we would have known it closes early, I accept 50% responsibility for this, but the empty gas bottles caused severe discomfort (no shower and no coffee, and no breakfast snack or fruit), turned the whole getaway's relaxed pampering into a survival camp with everything we had to do without.

Dit was 'n fantastiese plekkie, rustig netjies en rus vir die siel.

In en om Oudtshoorn is soveel om te sien en doen en Karusa is ideaal geleë om die rustigheid en mooi van die Klein Karoo te kan geniet en waardeer.

It was a fantastic place, quiet, tidy and restful for the soul.

There is so much to see and do in and around Oudtshoorn and Karusa is ideally situated to enjoy and appreciate the tranquility and beauty of the Klein Karoo.

Baie netjies, maklik om te kry en alles wat jy soek is daar.

Ek sal die gastehuis aanbeveel en sal definitief weer daar kom oornag. Prys baie billik vir dit wat jy kry. Baie dankie.
