Everything was excellent, the breakfast was more than what I expected. Yoo the staff, especially Dudu made sure that our stay was perfect and she explained everything and we enjoyed our stay with my friend. The kitchen staff was very friendly and served us well
Nothing, everything was perfect

Our IT Manager Steve stayed there last night, he absolutely loved it, excellent facilities, clean, great service, lovely to have a dip in the pool after a hot day, he loved the packed breakfast he was given in the morning as he had to leave early! He highly recommends this place, really great, comfortable stay!

Baie rustige tuiste.. Miskien kan jul dink om die dag van bevestiging van verblyf ook die etes te adverteer. Ek het dit gemis omdat ek te laat die epos oopgemaak het. Epos was die dag van verblyf ontvang.. Andersins n wonderlike ontvangs en verblyf gehad. Vrede. Ek sal beslis weer van jul gebruik maak.

Elegant Lodge & Conference Centre were conveniently located for our long-distance travel to Mozambique. We were very happy with the venue and facitilities. The host were very accommodating travelling with small children and gone above and beyond to make it comfortable for us and the little ones. Highly recommended
Nothing I can complain about. Our short stay was adequately comfortable and will definitely recommend

We did not have time for breakfast as we left early for a funeral but we were very happy with everything. The room was spotless and we loved the bar fridge in the room as we were able to put the drinks we had after travelling 5 hours. Thank you a lovely, comfortable stay.
We arrived late in the evening and left early in the morning, so there was nothing that stood out for us not to like.

Super tidy, clean and comfortable bedding and towels. Responsive staff, great location, attention to small details. They took care of my children’s needs well.
I found booking through Booking.com difficult - won’t do it that way next time, although we will stay again.

The room was as it looked on Booking.com site. I was impressed. Staff was friendly. The lounge areas made the place looks very hospitable. Clean and neat. Just one bottled water in the room would be very nice

Very nice room! Clean and a lot of space. Interior is modern and the bathroom is comfortable with a good shower. Also the common space is very nice. Breakfast was perfect! Best omelet ever!
Pongola is not such a great city. We only stayed here for 1 night as stopover to the coast. That was perfect.

I enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere and cleanliness. I highly recommend it.
Travelling from Pretoria for a funeral, felt punished that I was fined for arriving 5 mins after 9. Especially given my delay was beyond my control.
