"This place needs a complete make over, very old place definitely not a 4 star, we did not even use the lounge as those couches looked very dirty not to mention the spider webs everywhere, pictures on the website misleading will definitely not come back and refer the place"
"Our requests were all met. We were happy with our stay."
"We enjoyed our stay here, the place was very clean and neat, the staff was very friendly. We will be definitely coming back soon."
"Loved the look and feel. Enjoyed our stay. Could do with a toaste, since it is self-catering"
"The self catering unit, has NO forks or a pan. Light in the kitchen not working. Aircon was only blowing cold wind, despite putting it on high which was 32.over all the stay was good."
"We had a lovely weekend thank you"
"The staff is really friendly and they go out of their way to assit and made our stay very comfortable & enjoyable.Really enjoyed the jacuzzi bath at the Private Suite."
"Please note that the fridge only the freezer works and the normal fridge is not working otherwise I had a wonderful time."
"Curtain hooks missing in bedroom and bathroom, gives a sloppy appearance. Used crockery should be collected/replaced/washed, AND PROPERLY DRIED every day - not every second day! Dust on wardrobe shelves."
"I loved everything from the log cabins, food, services"
"The place was just ok but was not entirely impressed with the cleanliness. The floor was dirty & had dirty carpets too. Even the corners of the rooms were so dirty with spider webs which goes to show that the place was not cleaned before me + my family checked in. It looks like it was checked long ago. Not worth the money, not worth another visit"
"The Penthouse is not worth the money paid it is outdated in desporate need of a makeover.Lady at resection not the most warming person I have ever met. Hot water only a nought for one to shower and you have to go through office space to reach the unit. I can't recommend this for anyone as I know there is much better places available in the area for much less."
"The accommodation was fine, but in no way is it 4 star. According to the 4 star rating requirements, there are many aspects that certainly do not comply. To mention but a few, the bathroom tiles are loose, the basin is cracked, the cupboards handles are missing, no hooks,there are holes in the bedroomroof, soap andshampoo were provided on the first day for 2 people and there were three of us, thesewere not replenished on the second day, no hairdryer, towels not as per requirements, on arrival had to wait for ages for the gate to be opened as there was loud tv or radio somewhere, so our constant rings were not heard for some time. We then get taken through a room, which on going out for the day next morning, was being used as a conference room, so we had to look for another way to get to our car. Like I say, accommodation was ok, but don't try pass it as 4 star. Not sure how that was achieved."
"Thank you to the staff at Meerhof, friendly and professional. Even with other noisy residents the stay was great and relaxing."

"We enjoyed our stay very much at Meerhof Lodge! Rooms are well equipped and staff are extremely friendly! *****"
"Wat 'n heerlike naweek! Het omtrent die hele Lodge bespreek en almal praat met lof oor die verblyf en die uitstekende diens wat ons ontvang het. Baie dankie."
"Nice place, very peaceful and quiet."
"Definitely not a 4 star establishment.Was going to rate 2 stars but found a used condom in the room we shared with our kids on the morning of our departure!!! Management did apologise for this. Stayed in manor house - there was a constant flow of foot traffic to the area - the unit is not private at all. The jacuzzi splash pool is not heated. Also, the pool table is for communal use, not just the manor house. We were kept up until the early morning hours as the table is literally up against the ground floor bedroom window and you could hear all.Good photography makes it seem as if all the units are freestanding. They are pretty much on top of each other, sharing walls etc."
"Staff was friendly. Not even close to a 4 star, maybe 3 star. When we got there our room was booked out to someone else, we had to take what was available."
"It was a unforgettable peaceful and memorable lodge, me and my partner enjoyed ourselves we are even planning to come back soon, we have even recommended the lodge to my friends."
"Rose Cottage and private garden/boma/pool is good value for money."
"We had a wonderful time!!!"
"We were treated so well at the meerhof lodge. the rooms were fantastic and the service was good. I am very happy with Mike and his team, and I will not hestitate to go back to the accommodation. Thanks Mike and Frank for making this a pleasant mini holiday."
"When we checked in we found that the place only catered for 5 people but on the internet it read '8'. But we have to applaude the staff for making an effort to rectify the situation immediately and for putting a TV in the lounge, well done. We only draw back was the place we stayed in was not as nice as the one on the internet and the other units that we saw. Our unit needs to be updated as the furniture was old and worn out."
"A very beautiful and tranquil retreat. Enjoyed the peace and quiet. Will definitely stay at the lodge again."
"We will definitely visit Meerhof Lodge again. We loved the 'old' feeling the cottage has. The furniture is beautiful and the cottage is nice and cosy."
"I booked the place for a friend and they loved the stay at the lodge."
"It is a great environment. The staff were very eager to please, which was a great pleasure. The main bed at the Rose Cottage needs to be changed; we ended up sleeping with the kids because it was uncomfortable and old. Otherwise, we had an okay stay. Many thanks."
"Not what I expected, we arrived at 14.30 and the room was not ready we came back at 16.00 and the room was ready. It smelled of smoke the accommodation looked nothing like the pictures adverstised. The walls were dirty, the bathroom ceilings were damaged. It is definitely not worth a 4 star rating. I would think twice before staying at this place."
"What a beautiful place to come and relax with lots of activities around the dam to keep you busy. Mike and Wendy and their team are the best! Will definitely be coming back again and again!"
"Absolutely AMAZING!!!couldn't have asked for a better getawayEverything was PERFECT!!!!!"
"This was fabulous. Mike and Wendy with their staff absolutely make you feel at home. They went out of their way to ensure you have a good time and are very willing to help where ever they can. We enjoyed our stay and it is highly recommended. I will definitely go back. Mike, Wendy, William, Alfred and the other guys - you are wonderful"
"Will definitely go again."
"We had a wonderful time, just too short."
"Our room was over looking the dam and Mike and Wendy absolutely make you feel at home. They out of the way to ensure you have a good time and are very willing to lend what ever you may require for a day on the dam. Highly recommended and I will definitely go back"
