A peaceful stopover on the way up from JNB to Zim border - highly recommended
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

For us just a short stay passing through but definitely seems like a good choice for longer stays especially if one plays golf and wants to enjoy the closby activities.

Great family getaway spot

One of the best family getaway spots. Staff and people are always so friendly and helpful. Resort has everything you need.
Daniel, 3-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Wonderful family break.

What an incredible experience. From the friendly staff, the unexpected animal farm, excellent amenities to the sense of luxury. A wonderful family gem that we will look to frequent.
Daniel, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

Unfriendly and unmotivated. Difficult to get there. Misleading names and address descriptions. Breakfast was good. Never again.
Peter, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

My family enjoyed our stay at the Ranch resort. The golf chalet was extremely spacious, well laid out, and clean. We were greeted in the chalet with fruits and 2 bottles of wine- very nice touch. The hotel is also very lush with lovely plants and trees all over. The only down side was that the activities were a bit pricey. Otherwise we would definitely stay at the resort again.

6/10 Okay

Good hotel but poor housekeeping

Initial check in extras were not in room. Lounge and dining areas were locked, had to go back to reception to get it unlocked. No shampoo etc in bathrooms. Had 2 rooms booked, the 1 had extras like welcome drinks the other did not. Bathroom drains in shower blocked.
Husein, 2-night trip

4/10 Poor

Great resort but really poor service

The resort itself is great and accommodation is comfortable and facilities decent. Service was disappointing from reception where their service wasn't great, the attitude was like they didnt really want to help but were forced to. To the house keeping staff, they come early when still waking up, they asked what time they should come back, go out to pools and when return (3 hours after they supposed to clean) they still didn't clean the room. Have to phone housekeeping to get them to come clean, they clean the bedrooms and bathrooms but not even properly, tea, coffee, toiletries and towels not restocked. Not sure when last they vacuum the carpets. They didn't even go to the kitchen, had to call them back to do that. Couch in lounge is supposedly sleeper couch, but after you lift those cushions and see all the staff accumulated there you'll think twice about sleeping there. On check out called for late check out, they tell me 11am (which is normal check out) when I tell the lady that, she says she is going to call me back, I'm still waiting. Check out process was like they couldnt care less and they just there because they had to be. The spa is off site, they dont answer their phones, try their website booking enquiry they call back about 18 hours later so pretty useless as well. Ground staff are quite friendly and helpful.

Rooms and cleanliness

The room I was given had a dirty carpet which made the whole room stuffy, after complaining, the guy who checked me in (Andrew) was very helpful. He organized another room without carpet for me. The room was extra clean, and the bed very comfortable. It was the revamped side.
