  05 April 2017

  "This place was really perfect for my family and i . my 5 year old boy and 1 year old had an amazing time there. They loved seeing the Ostriches and swimming in the pool. The facilities were clean and i cant fault anything with the house. The pool was clean and although the shallow end wasn't a big portion it was shallow enough for both my kids to enjoy. The food was... ok could be better thats the only thing i wasnt too happy about but everything else was great. THANK YOU SO MUCH my family and i will deffinetly be coming back"

• "Disappointing but has potential"

  "<span style="font-size: 16px;"><span style="color: #000000;"><span style="font-family: calibri;"><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: calibri; font-size: 16px; color: #000000;">Unfortunately we were not aware that we would be sharing the chalet with strangers. This should be emphasised from the beginning, for safety reasons. Also the lack of proper housekeeping and hygiene really lets the establishment down. The bathrooms and rooms were not thoroughly cleaned and had dirt marks and a lot of dust. We asked for cleaning materials so as to see to this ourselves. In addition, the thatch roofing of the house had a lot of dust and many insects which would fall onto our heads or swarm around us (bees nest in one of the rooms). This can be improved if a net is provided above the beds as the thatch is very low and right on top of the beds and therefore your head at night. </span></p><span style="font-family: calibri; font-size: 16px; color: #000000;"><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p></span><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"><span style="font-family: calibri; font-size: 16px; color: #000000;">All in all, disappointed in our stay, and in fact cut it by a day, but believe that should these concerns be addressed, this establishment has the potentialto be a real gem and we could visit again.</span></p></span><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p></span><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p></span><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p><span style="font-size: 16px;"><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p><span style="color: #000000;"><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p><span style="font-family: calibri;"><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p><p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt;"></p></span></span></span>"

• "Enjoyed stay"

• "Amritz Private Lodge and B&B"

  14 October 2013

  "We enjoyed our stay at Amritz Private Lodge. It was very relaxing and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Will definitely stay over again."

• "Wonderful!"

  30 January 2013

  "So glad to have found this place, it is so beautiful and peaceful and the service is amazing. Everyone was so nice and helpful, I couldn't have asked for a better experience. I definitely recommend it to anyone looking to get away and experience South Africa!"

• "Not satisfied"

  13 November 2012

  "Although the lodge itself is really nice and neat, a few things spoiled the experience- there is a very bad 6 or 7km stretch of dirt road to get to the lodge. If you are there to stay and not to go anywhere it is OK, but to travel that road twice every day is inadvisable. Also to share a cottage with strangers is a bit uncomfortable, especially with the wooden floors that allows sound to travel. We had a mom and crying baby above us which meant that we didn't really sleep. If you go in a group and you all know each other in the cabin, it will be a different story. To summarize it did not tend to our needs, but it will be a nice place to stay if you know what you are getting into."

• "Peaceful"

  12 October 2012

  "We had a wonderful stay at Amritz. This place is peaceful and relaxing - and to top it off we were practically the only guests there which was very special. Food was good as well as facilities. Will be back again one day!"

• "Great stay, fabulous people"

  18 August 2012

  "Our stay at Amritz Private Lodge was very comfortable. Great people, great location, very nice accommodation. Only downside was it was a little difficult to find - GPS couldn't find it, but the directions served us well once we got to the junction of the R556 and the R565."

• "Great service indeed"

  15 June 2012

  "Staying at this lodge on Tuesday 12 June 2012 - I arrived fairly late with a very bad cold - the friendly and warm service soon had my room heated up and a great cooked meal appeared!"

• "Restful stay"

  01 March 2012

  "Our visit was cut short at Amritz, but the time we spent there was very relaxing. Breakfast was awesome. Even for our 3 year old twins. They loved the pool and all the animals walking around. Thanks for a good break away!"

• "A lovely little peace haven"

  22 February 2012

  "We were driving for miles in what seemed like a pretty dull landscape in the heat of summer. And all of a sudden we drive into this beautiful farm/guesthouse, with a lovely garden and a wonderful sense of freshness and peace. The rooms are really nice and clean. The owner is kind and friendly, with a love of wildlife which is obvious in the place, and can cook great dinner on demand. Excellent breakfast too, and overall pleasantness."

• "A magnificent stay"

  21 January 2012

  "We enjoyed a magnificent stay at Amritz Private Lodge. It was quite private - we were alone in one of the two guest houses and were quite happy with the silence, the beauty of the environment and especially the gorgeous breakfast served by a very kind Mariette. A memorable event!"

• "Thank you"

  06 December 2011

  "We had a very nice time. People are friendly, food is fantastic. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Only negative is the upstairs rooms have wooden floors which means when you stay on the ground floor you will be disturbed by the guests upstairs."

• "Excellent food"

  28 November 2011

  "The food was excellent. We had a braai on the first night and everything was supplied by Amritz. The breakfasts were very good. The rooms and bathrooms were okay, and the service and staff were good, very friendly and helpful. Will I go back? Yes."

• "Awesome"

  "Ons verblyf was asemrowend lekker. Alles was net perfek. Baie dankie aan julle dit was heerlik! Our accommodation was amazing. Everything was perfect. Thank you guys, it was very enjoyable!"

• "Unacceptable"

  11 July 2011

  "We were not happy with the road. No one warned us that the road goes into tar and the markings had been turned so you couldn't see them. This is very dangerous as you can loose control of your car if you do not expect the tar to go into gravel. This made us very unhappy as we were two ladies driving alone at night and I hate to think of what could have happened. The rooms were freezing cold. There is no heater in the common area and it is cold. There were no glasses to even poor a glass of water. You should advise that the bathrooms only have baths, this is not ideal in winter and freezing cold as the bathrooms have no insulation or heating. The cost for dinner is unacceptable. It couldn't have cost for than R70 per meal. There were no coldrinks to choose from except Coke zero and tab and then that also ran out. The gate should have a motor or intercom system, it's unacceptable that you expect your guests to get out of there cars to open and close the gate."

• "Amritz Private Lodge"

  17 November 2010

  "Amritz is the perfect quiet getaway to relax and regroup in the bush. It is close enough to activities if you want them and far away enough to have peace and quiet. Thank you."

• "Perfect location"

  25 October 2010

  "A friend and I stayed at Amritz with a trip to Pilansberg National Park as the main purpose of our visit. We found Amritz a perfect location. Hostess could not have been more accommodating from picking us up at the airport, welcoming us with a snack and sherry on arrival, arranging the trip to Pilansberg and providing information about the bush country.Value of the accommodation for the price could not be surpassed."

• "Warm and friendly"

  13 August 2010

  "friendly and warm place. Mariette is a very kind woman."

• "Remote peaceful setting close to Sun City"

  03 July 2010

  "Approx. 20-25 minutes drive from Sun City, will be quicker once the roads are sorted out. Lovely peaceful setting and the lodges were clean and well presented. Quite remote, but nice and quiet if that is what you are looking for. Only spoke to the host on the phone and she was nice and polite, but in the two nights we were there they never ventured from the farm to meet us, which was quite disappointing having travelled the length and breadth of the country and having stayed in several ... more"

• "Great Lodge -would go again!!"

• "Wonderful wekend at the Amritz"

  23 November 2009

  "The 2 nights were wonderful; peaceful and secure with great hospiltality and kindness. The lodge is building a pool which we are looking forward to at the next stay. There is a large braai area which we could not use because of the rainy weather but that did not stop us from braaing because there was a large gas spit braai. It was a wonderful experience for my family."

• "Wonderful stay"

  01 October 2009

  "I was amazed at the professionalism, courtesy and warmth we receivedat Amritz Private Lodge. My experience at the private lodges is that when you are a guest, you are just a number. But at Amritz you are consistently given attention. My stay at Amritzs was wonderful. I hope to return to have more good time in the near future, probable with friends."

• "The stay was excellent."

  25 September 2009

  " My car ran out of petrol on my way to Amritz Private Lodge and B&B about 20 km from Sun City - about 50 km from Amritz Private Lodge and B&B. Mariette, the owner, and her husband Pieter, came to assist me in the middle of the night, in the middle of no where. This is to give an idea of how far they would go to extend services. I really appreciated. "
