The staff on site were amazing. The property is exactly as it looks on the website. The breakfast is Next level, and you have to be very hungry to finish all the food they serve. A true experience. The property is well situated in the town, and within close distance to most restaurants. The pool area was amazing, and the rooms very well appointed and spacious.

Could not fault them on anything. Just disappointed that the Spa (as advertised) does not operate on the property any longer, and you have to make a special booking if you want a massage. I'm assuming the therapist comes to the hotel on request.

A lovely small estate in an 1801 property. Must impressed with Swellendam, a lovely old town with some great buildings. De Kloof had some beautiful gardens and the pool area particularly nice. Breakfast served was excellent. Staff all most kind and delighted, and surprised to have my car cleaned. Quite unexpected. Our room was separate from the main house, all named after a different grape. Sauvignon Blanc was our suite. Huge bathroom. Would stay here again and highly recommend.

Wonderful hotel in a 200 year old Dutch farm. Beautiful surroundings, very tasteful furnishings and a relaxing atmosphere. We had a fantastic room/suite all by ourselves, which was absolutely magnificent and extremely comfortable. Wonderful breakfast with a chef who prepares the most delicious food. This place will make you relax and lose all stress and thoughts of home… Absolute tóp hotel!

Nothing!!!

Beautiful historic buildings in spectacular surroundings, just a short hop from the picturesque village of Swellendam. Superbly appointed and comfortable rooms and delicious breakfast. Friendly and helpful staff. Wonderful yoga session. We especially liked the fact that a staff member cleaned our car pre-departure without being asked!

We were slightly disappointed that the hotel’s restaurant is currently closed. A minor point regarding the room: the ceiling light appeared to have a malfunction where one bulb could not be turned off and another flickered all night long.

Beautiful traditional thatched buildings set in beautifully maintained gardens. Our cottage was spacious and tastefully decorated. Water bed was sensational. I think that was my second experience of a water bed and loved it. Jocelyn and Linda were very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious and some lovely choices of continental and cooked dishes. Walking distance to the town, delightful cafes and restaurants. The museum is a must visit. Roy, the owner was very kind and interested in our well being. Pool was sensational!!!🤣

Our final night of our holiday in South Africa so we decided to splash out and spend a little more by booking De Kloof. We did not regret it. On arrival we were greeted by a very friendly lady who said we could select from two different rooms that were available. Both were absolutely beautful, very spacious with high quality furnishings. We selected "Merlot". The room was fantastic. Huge bathroom, lovely balcony overlooking the garden and extremely comfortable. After a lot of time in the car we had a lovely afternoon relaxing in the sun by the pool where there was a drinks service by ringing a bell. The location was a little way off the main street but walkable to the restaurants. Breakfast in the morning was a little slow but perfectly acceptable.

Nothing

We loved our room. We liked the surroundings ,one could go for walks but need to want to explore. We love to walk. The staff was very friendly, it was quiet and very relaxing.

The coffee machine did not work and there should be a guide to TV instructions , maybe if I was them provide Netflix. Being rated a five star location, in the evening when we wanted a drink, but we could not find anybody.

Lovely breakfast served on the terrace by a very friendly lady. Beautiful surroundings around the old, historic building. Swimming pool with mountain views Five minutes walk main road, (quite steep on return). A further 10 max to a choice of 3/4 restaurants. Huge room and bathroom.

The room needed a little attention for example the bathroom blinds didn’t work and the safe was small and difficult to operate. The bed linen was quite discoloured, maybe due to the property not being on mains drainage? Generally a little ‘tired’.

De Kloof Estate is a gem. Historic, attractive and wonderfully restored. The rooms were well decorated and well done, especially the bath rooms. The staff was very professional and attentive. The breakfast was fantastic. I highly recommend the De Kloof Estate. BP

The pool was really nice, as was the breakfast. The groundsman and Linda were absolutely lovely and so helpful and happy.

The decor was a little strange and we were expecting more on-site spa facilities, a restaurant and an area to enjoy pre and after dinner drinks (as per the website). It was lovely but not sure I would refer to it as a "luxury hotel and spa"!
