    17 January 2021

    "There was no water in the morning."

  • "Comfortable accommodation"

    18 December 2019

    "We stayed at Whittals on our way to the coast. We had 2 units which was great for my big family. The braai was great and it was comfortably equipped. The hostess was very friendly."

  • "SPACIOUS CHALETS, FRIENDLY SERVICE"

    25 September 2018

    "The chalets are very neat and well kept, and the lady who assisted us was very friendly and helpful.We enjoyed our stay, and can recommend Whittals for overnight or short term stay.The area is not the best anymore, but that is mainly due to the Aliwal Spa that has closed. You will struggle though to find better value for money in Aliwal North."

  • "Spacious and well equipped. A visit to The Saffron Garden is a must!"

    25 September 2018

    "Put a note at the gate to tell visitors to phone on arrival or instal a bell/intercom. Someone walking past told us to call when we were trying to gain access.People hooted at the gate twice that night. Venue may be losing customers because of this.As a dianled guest, I could manage quite well and owners could consider making a unit disability friendly and advertising as such.Parking at the unit is great and completely level, apart from the shower step."

  • "Quick ready access to the challet"

    03 May 2018

    "A comfortable stay in No. 5, but there were some problems.1. The door would not lock from the inside (was attended to immediately and made workable), but needed a new mechanism.2. The plumbing was not good, the handle came off in the shower, the hot water tap in the basin was loose, and the toilet handle needed to be lifted manually to stop the toilet from running all night.Otherwise enjoyed my stay."

  • "Bester family road trip."

    08 January 2016

    "Thank you to the management of Whittals Chalets that made our stay as comfortable as possible under difficult conditions. There was no water in Aliwal North, they were in the middle of a heat wave (45 degrees), and still they made arrangements for bath- and drinking water. There was only one fan in the chalet which ment that the children didn't have a fan for their room. There were only two bath towels for four people. The DSTV was not working, even after the maintenance person came out. We were very disappointed that the main attraction in Aliwal North, the hot springs and Spa, was closed. An ageing resort and chalet, but clean and neat. With all this in mind, and all the challenges, the management still tried their best to make our stay comfortable."

    21 December 2015

    "We were so disappointed by everything that we decided to leave. The lady that we spoke to on telephone number that is at the reception door never bothered to pitch up, although she said she would be there in 5 minutes. Half an hour later we finally gave up and left."

  • "Best Place In Aliwal"

    01 January 2015

    "This place was awesome. The manager was extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms were nice and big and everything was fantastic especially for the price. I will definitely stay here again next time I go to Aliwal North."

  • "Highly disappointed"

    23 December 2014

    "I have used Whittals before and for the price, always satisfied. until now. I booked 2 chalets for two nights adding up to R1400. I paid my deposit and telephonically confirmed my booking. When I arrived, the boy they sent to book me in, told me the booking was for 1 chalet with two bedrooms. I showed him the e-mail, which he insisted was not translated right. I stuck to my guns until he gave me the keys to two chalets. The shower was not working, it was drizzling warm water but gushing cold water. The beds are two kilograms away from falling down on the floor. The stay could have been okay had it not been for the 30 minute tussle to get booked in. I'm highly annoyed and hope Elize takes this review to heart and makes a change."

  • "Whittals"

    09 June 2014

    "Some of the units are rented out permanently to local people. At 1am we were woken up by loud arguing in the next apartment. I phoned the manager then and again in the morning but got no reply (he does not stay on the premises). This loud noise continued until 1pm. When we left I deposited the keys in the letter box, there was still no representative of Whittals to be seen-never again-"

  • "Overnight"

    "Really enjoyed our stay - even only for 1 night."
