It was just average.

Stay was good but I was disappointed. The jacuzzi was not working, The balcony was dirty, The sleeper couch was dirty and broken and it had stains on it The carpet and chairs need some deep cleaning as they had stains. Breakfast had the same menu for two days. Overall, I might still go back just to relax as the place is quiet, but I will definitely book a standard room and bring my own food.

Satisfied about everything.

We enjoyed our stay at Meloding Guest House. Their hospitality was very good, perfect dinner, and the place itself is so beautiful. Two days was really not enough for our stay. We will definitely visit the place again very soon. It's a very nice place with good staff members.

Friendly staff. Lovely premises. But maintenance needed.

I was incredibly heartbroken to find that the Jacuzzi in my room was not working as that was the primary attraction to the venue for me. The couch and chair were broken and the side lamp too. Overall, the staff is friendly and they're well equipped.

Place made me feel like my other home. We wished to extend our stay but time was not on our side. What a welcoming and relaxing place. Can't wait to come again.

Lovely and welcoming place with amazing multi tasked and talented staff. Cleanliness excellent, comfort of beds and and cleanliness of bedding superb! The only turn off is the road, especially on a rainy it was muddy but its not far from the tar road. We enjoyed a lot. The breakfast also fantastic and warm. Liked it.

Not what was booked and most luxurious room paid for, jet tub out of order.

1) Booked 1 queen suite, got double bed. 2) 1 King suite booked with Jet bath. Jet bath doesn't work at all. It is discussed for a reason. Very disappointing, spoiled whole weekend.

Heerlike, rustige atmosfeer en pragtige tuine.

Ons het die snoekertafel baie geniet, maar daar was 'n perdebynes reg bo die tafel wat ons senuweeagtig gemaak het. Die swembad was ook groenerig wat 'n teleurstelling was. Die bed was fantasties, met die lekkerste matras en was yslik groot. Die ontbyt was absoluut uit die boeke.

Lovely, peaceful atmosphere and beautiful gardens.

We really enjoyed the snooker table, but there was a wasp nest right above the table which made us nervous. The pool was also green which was a disappointment. The bed was fantastic, with the nicest mattress and was huge. The breakfast was absolutely out of the books.

Niks spesifiek om oor te klaar nie, maar webtuiste skep bietjie 'n wanindruk.

Die kamers is met die minimum toegerus. Die webtuiste stel dit ook nie duidelik dat ontbyt nie ingesluit is nie.

Nothing specific to clear up, but website creates a bit of a false impression.

The rooms are equipped with the minimum. The website also does not make it clear that breakfast is not included.

Mooi plek met baie potensiaal.

Ek was teleurgesteld, want die 2 redes hoekom ek daar bespreek het, het nie gerealiseer nie. Dit word geadverteer dat daar 'n verhitte swembad is. Dit was nie die geval nie. Dit word slegs verhit in die wintermaande. Dit sal help as dit so aangedui word op die webtuiste. Ek het die Honeymoon Suite bespreek vir die spa-bad ─ dit was egter buite werking en die bad het 'n kraak in. Die pragtige uitsig oor die bosveld was bederf omdat die balkon vuil was. Daar was ook 'n kragonderbreking, en dit het veroorsaak dat die drukpomp na die stort nie gewerk het nie, en terwyl ek gestort het, het die water verdwyn. Daar is ook nie 'n kragopwekker nie en ons moes 'n geruime tyd vir kerse wag. Die personeel is egter baie vriendelik en die ontbyt baie lekker. Die plek kort wel baie instandhouding, maar het die potensiaal om baie lekker verblyf te bied.

Nice place with a lot of potential.

I was disappointed because the 2 reasons why I booked there did not materialize. It is advertised that there is a heated pool. This was not the case. It is only heated in the winter months. It will help if it is indicated as such on the website. I booked the Honeymoon Suite for the spa bath ─ however it was out of order and the bath had a crack in it. The beautiful view of the woodland was spoiled because the balcony was dirty. There was also a power outage, and this caused the pressure pump to the shower to not work, and while I was showering, the water disappeared. There is also no generator and we had to wait quite some time for candles. However, the staff is very friendly and the breakfast very tasty. The place does need a lot of maintenance, but has the potential to offer very nice accommodation.

Gehalte en waarde vir geld!

Netjiese gastehuis met die ekstra aandag aan die klein detailtjies. Het waarlik lekker geslaap na 'n lang dag se werk. Die aanwysings na die gastehuis is net nie heeltemal so duidelik nie maar nie te min kon ek die plek vind. Ontbyt was heerlik!

Ontevrede.

Wasbakkraan stukkend. Swak waterdrukking in stort. Moes vra vir melk en toiletpapier in kamer. Moes vra vir alles tydens ontbyt. TV-stasies in kamer oorheersend ander tale en kon geen nuus kyk nie. Personeel het opleiding nodig en badkamers kort loodgieter diens.

Ontbyt was goed, maar kamers is nie skoon nie.

Ons is goed ontvang. Die kamers se matte is vol kolle, ligskakelaars is vreeslik vuil. Ons bed se laken het 'n groot winkelhaakskeur in gehad toe ons die bed ooptrek om te gaan slaap. Badkamers is vol stof en kolle op die seephouers ens. Ontbyt was netjies en aangenaam. Staf was vriendelik en hulpvaardig.

Breakfast was great, but rooms are not clean.

We were well received. The rooms' carpets have marks on them, light switches are very dirty. Our bed sheet had a huge tear in it when we pulled back the sheets to go to bed. Bathrooms are dusty and spots on the soap dispensers, etc. Breakfast was neat and pleasant. Staff very friendly and helpful.

Slegte diens.

Ontbyt was aangebied, maar nie voorberei nie. Ons is aanbeveel om ons eie ontbyt te maak as ons wil. Bestuurder het eers laat ingekom en aangebied om vir ons toebroodjies te maak. Vir die bedrag wat mens per nag betaal, verwag mens tenminste 'n ordentlike ontbyt. By alles het die toilet ook nie gewerk nie. Sal glad nie weer oornag by Meloding Guest House nie.

Bad service.

Breakfast was offered but not prepared. We were recommended to make our own breakfast if we wanted. Manager only came in late and offered to make us sandwiches. For the amount you pay per night, you at least expect a decent breakfast. In addition, the toilet did not work. Will not stay at Meloding Guest House again at all.

Meloding Guest House 's response

Good day Patrick,

Our deepest apology for the unprofessional service you received, it is not how we do things at Meloding Guest House.
Unfortunately we were not aware of the toilet that was not working but we have since maintained all toilets.
We would like to offer you a free night as our way of apologising.

Kind regards,
Meloding guest house Management

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and Meloding Guest house execeeded my expectations

Phumlani, the guest manager is the perfect person for his position. From our arrival to our departure he was kind, efficient, and made all the guest feel right at home. The restaurant staff were just as efficient. The establishment is spotless and well maintained. We engaged with the other guests during breakfast and everyone indicated that they would come back and inform family and friends of this great find in Bela Bela. You have set the bar high Meloding. Keep it up.
