Presentation, staff, room absolutely beautiful. Staff really attentive, thoughtful and cater to almost every need. Tranquil and peaceful environment (except for helicopter landing outside my room). All dietary requirements carefully catered for and presentation of food absolutely exquisite.

The 12km unsealed driveway is a little daunting - especially in inclement weather conditions. Wouldn’t recommend for small sedans or low luxury cars. Dining - no choice set menus a little restrictive.

The property was beautiful and very remote. It was quite and you had everything you need.

The staff, the food, the remoteness. It was overall a fantastic time at the Spicers Peak Lodge and the staff made our stay perfect.

The setting is amazing. The lodge very comfortable and it was lovely to have a fire in our room. The meals were excellent, interesting food all prepared very well.

I was gutted that the pool wasn't heated.

Breakfast was always good as were all the meals. It was always easy to get a coffee or a drink; all part of the package and of course my wife's favourite - the fireplace

Always that last part of the drive from the main road up to the resort, but I'm getting used to it

Incredible experience! Would highly recommend staying here. Staff were excellent the food unbelievable. Everyone helpful friendly such a wonderful experience. The 1 bedroom private lodge was beautiful clean everything was thought about.

I loved everything!

The service was absolutely fantastic. Sam in particular with his wine knowledge was a great asset. The property/views were spectacular and lots of amenities.

More variety needed for vegetarians. I was served pesto pasta for dinner on the first night, pesto/summer green risotto for lunch the next day and then the main option for dinner the last night was mushroom risotto… and came out as a pesto risotto! It was all tasty, but I expected more from a 5 star lodge. I’d also say that the cheeseboards etc. also needed more work/balancing - again a bit basic/bare for a 5 star lodge.

We enjoy the all inclusive charge, so that once we arrive we don’t have to think about the bill. The standard is such that no normal person could have anything to complain about. All our fellow guests spoke about how happy they were with the lodge. No complaints at all were heard. For us, as birdwatchers, we love the remoteness of the location, and after we left we spent quite a long time birdwatching as we descended from the plateau. It was wonderful. (This was a gift from Philip to us, his sister Jill and her husband James)

As with all of these high standard places, it’s hard to get a tiny, simple snack. Ask for two biscuits with a slice of cheese, and you get a cheeseboard with the works . As it’s a sin to waste food, we eat more than we really want to. It’s a good fault, but it still amounts to wasted food. I guess it’s good news for the pigs!

Beautiful property.

The attention to detail. All the staff were wonderful.

Had to leave.

Food was great for all the meals!

quite a bit of flies
