Absolutely delightful!

Our stay at Tibani Nature Reserve was absolutely delightful! From the moment we arrived, the host greeted us with a warm smile and made us feel right at home. Her hospitality and friendliness added an extra special touch to our experience. The views from the reserve were simply breathtaking, offering a stunning backdrop of natural beauty. We enjoyed peaceful moments watching the animals in their natural habitat and going on hikes to explore the area. The host was always available to offer guidance and share her knowledge of the reserve and its wildlife. The Tibani Nature Reserve Facebook page was incredibly informative. We saved screenshots of the animals she had posted about, which helped us identify and spot many of them during our stay. Leaving Tibani Nature Reserve was difficult, as we had such a wonderful time. We are already looking forward to our next visit and can't wait to return to this little piece of paradise. Thank you for making our stay so memorable!

Uitgerus na 'n wonderlike naweek.

Die verblyf en ligging was presies wat ons gesoek het. Die swembad was 'n groot plus met Vrydag se 35 grade en die kaggel binne was 'n wenner met Saterdag se donderweer en reën. Die WiFi was ook 'n wenner. Sanet was 'n aangename gasvrou met baie volledige inligting voor ons aankoms.

Lekker gerus by Tibani!

So lekker gebly in die pragtige Montagu omgewing. Die huisie het alles wat jy sou nodig hê en die plonspoel op die stoep was amazing gewees. As jy hou van stilte en pragtige natuurskoon sal jy baie lekker hier bly. Sanet en Pieter is baie vriendelik en hulle gaan uit hulle pad om die verblyf vir mens so gemaklik en lekker as moontlik te maak. Ek sal beslis weer by Tibani gaan bly.

Sanet and Pieter are very friendly and they go out of their way to make the stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. I will definitely stay with Tibani again.

Was restful and nice. Mostly peaceful away from everything.

Just the roads to the houses are not so good. It's bad driving on them as they make the stay uncomfortable. Seeing the sun with your pool on your front porch is amazing.

Tibani Nature Reserve 's response

I understand that the guest had an issue with the roads leading to the houses. However, I believe there may be some confusion as we only have one house on the reserve and there's only one road leading to this house. It is outlined in our advert that there is a gravel road leading to the reserve and we advise guests to inquire about the state of the road before their arrival. This guest arrived in a VW Polo and subsequently requested for additional guests, who also arrived late at night in a Polo, when it was completely dark. In their confusion, they drove past the reserve gate and had to turn around. This leads me to question, why would you invite others to join you at the house with the same vehicle and at night, if you found the road conditions challenging? It doesn't quite make sense. We've had guests after them with an even smaller vehicle, a Hyundai i10, who encountered no issues with the road leading to the house.

A little paradise.

We thoroughly enjoyed the tranquility and the beautiful view. The cottage was so cozy and having the little wooden stove inside warmed the place up while it was freezing outside. Sanet went out of her way to make us feel comfortable, and even offered us help with a flat wheel. It was lovely to walk the 4x4 track and the view from the top was stunning. Also enjoyed the blesbok and a few springbok that ventured close to the cottage.

Lekker wegbreek uit die stad.

Sanet, die gasvrou, is baie vriendelik. Ons het die natuur baie geniet. Daar is 'n skoon toilet en stort en die plaasdammetjie bied lavenis as dit te warm raak. Die WiFi was 'n verrassing. Baie voëllewe. Die Springbokkies wei naby. Mongoose het kom kuier. Daar is 'n koggelmandertjies wat elke dag op die houtheining kom uithang. Mooiste sonsondergange en sterrekyk! Net eenvoudig hemels as jy van kamp hou sonder fieterjasies (daars nie krag nie, maar dis mos nie noodsaaklik as jy lief is vir kamp in die natuur nie) En dit is privaat! Jy het nie kamp-bure nie.

Nice break from the city.

Sanet, the hostess, is very friendly. We really enjoyed the nature. There is a clean toilet and shower and the small farm pond offers relief if it gets too hot. The WiFi was a surprise. Lots of bird life. The Springboks graze nearby. Mongoose came to visit. There is a basket of small balls that come to hang out on the wooden fence every day. Most beautiful sunsets and stargazing! Just simply heavenly if you like camping without frills (no power there, but that's not essential if you love camping in nature) And it's private! You don't have camp neighbors.

Pragtige huisie, klein maar met kunstigheid en goeie smaak ingerig.

Ons was 2 vriende wat vir ons jaarlikse motorfietstrippie drie aande daar geslaap het. Die afgesonderdheid in die natuur was ongelooflik lekker. Die plonspoel na 'n warm dag 'n lafenis. Gaan verseker weer saam met ons vrouens! Sanet doen moeite vir haar gaste. Een van my gunstelingplekke!

Relaxed and rejuvenating.

If diving into nature and getting away from it all is your thing then Tibani is the place for you. Game and birds in abundance. Beautiful hikes. Some negatives are the need for more shade in the afternoons and a more user-friendly shower. Scaldingly hot!

Rustig, geïsoleer in die natuur.

Die piepklein huisie staan alleen in die Klein-Karoo veld, maar het alles wat 'n mens nodig het, insluitende 'n heerlike houtstofie wat die hele huisie warm maak. Eks seker in die somer sou ons dieselfde gevoel het oor die swembadjie op die stoep. Ons kon op ons eie deur die veld stap en verken, iets wat 'n mens selde mag doen. Die 4x4 pad was pragtig, die nou paadjie verskaf genoeg adrenalien sonder om te gevaarlik te wees.

Quiet, isolated in nature.

The tiny house stands alone in the Klein-Karoo veld, but has everything one needs, including a delicious wooden stove that warms the whole house. I'm sure in the summer we would have felt the same way about the pool on the porch. We were able to walk and explore the field on our own, something one rarely gets to do. The 4x4 road was beautiful, the narrow path provides enough adrenaline without being too dangerous.
