Italy“Sharon is a great host, we went here for a night before our Kruger visit, very convenient just 15 minutes from the gate, and we decided to book another night after Kruger. Great value for the money, great hospitality, very nice place.”- Adlynn
South Africa“The breakfast was AMAZING! The room was clean and very comfortable. The hostess was like a mother to us.” 
Simphiwe South Africa“In general, the room was clean. It is only a few things that need to be changed, mentioned on the next question and answer. It was a self-catering room, and the dinner is or was not applicable.”
Daniel
Spain“Sharon was the perfect host, she made sure everything was perfect, even set music in the room for the arrival. Always asked about our next destination and gave us the best tips and rest camps at Kruger. Thanks a lot :)”- Boshoff South Africa“Liked the pool, how chilled it was ... the friendliness and cleanliness. The doggies were cute as well. Load shedding was not a problem either 🙃 .. with the WiFi and lights still working.”
