  30 July 2018

  "Unit was nice, deck would have been nice if not behind another unit ... interference with water in shower was a bummer ... it went from ice cold to too hot all the time.Breakfast was horrible ... 1 slice of burned toast with grated cheese and crumbled feta, greens (@ 8 in the morning), 2 pieces of bacon that had more fat than meat and 1 tiny slice of avocado. Needless to say we Could not eat itFor reasons above ... definitely way overpriced!!!"

  10 April 2017

  "This was a suprising find in Krugersdorp - overlooking the game park and really far from the madding crowd. Very well appointed cottages with great beds and a brilliant bath. Breakfast was fine but often a little cold and perhaps should be served on little burners."

• "Cleanliness and Location"

  24 January 2017

  "The location is perfect and the place is very cosy especially for a family weekend break away. The pricing is also fair for the family unit. <br/><br/>I suggest they consider building a medium sized meeting room for small groups. There is poor signage of the venue from all entrance points from the two main routes to Ventersdorp i.e. R 24 and N 14"

• "Get away Delight"

  23 January 2017

  "The place itself is so beautiful. The units are immaculate. The service is excellent down to every precision. Breakfasts were a real surprise and treat every day and the set up of that is perfect! Never change that. <br/>Privacy was great but so was mingling if that's your thing.<br/>Had an amazing time. Thank you Rocky Aloe. Your on my "yes" list for again."

• "Wegbreek naweek"

  14 December 2015

  "Dis 'n fantasties wegbreek. Die tuine is n lushof en die huisies is baie netjies en skoon met n stylvolle gevoel. Met die uitkykpunt en watergat kan mens baie wild en voels sien wat jou laat voel asof jy in n ander w<strike>e</strike>reld is. Dit is lekker privaat en die behandeling is persoonlik en professioneel. Baie goeie waarde vir geld."

• "Honeymoon Suite"

  30 November 2015

• "great place"

  03 August 2015

  "I have to say that the place is very nice and we did have a good time, but mention has to be made about the levels of service,the owners are hardly ever there and we were not introduced to any of the activities mentioned on the website and also we had left our car in Pretoria and used uber to get there as the website said that there is chartered vehicles, but to my amazement none was offered. nice place but something will need to be done about the service before i go there again.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Establishments response:</span></div><div><div style="border: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.8999996185303px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #45403a; background-color: #fefef0;">Guest arrive without a vehicle on our doorstep. Then they only realized its a B&amp;B. Then my husband said it is no problem they will arranged transport. On Saturday morning they call us for early breakfast because they are on their way out. After 12 they want to arrange a lift to nearby Cafe.......Sorry we don't do transport if not pre-arrange (driver wasn't booked so he gets weekend off). All our guests booked for a private getaway sowe don't disturb them from our side. Each time a guest will phone we will assist them.</div><div style="border: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.8999996185303px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #45403a; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="border: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.8999996185303px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #45403a; background-color: #fefef0;">This guest had no vehicle.......how are they going to explore surroundings?</div><div style="border: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.8999996185303px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #45403a; background-color: #fefef0;"></div><div style="border: 0px; font-size: 13px; vertical-align: baseline; line-height: 16.8999996185303px; word-break: normal; word-wrap: break-word; color: #45403a; background-color: #fefef0;">Sunday on booking out they had no transport.

• "Excellent weekend hideaway"

  24 February 2014

  "We had a fantastic stay over Valentine's weekend. The unit had everything we could wish for and the bottle of bubbly on arrival was a very nice touch. We enjoyed the peace and quiet and will definitely recommend Rocky Aloe Lodge to our friends."

• "Beautiful room"

  17 February 2014

  "The room was beautiful and I would have loved to stay there longer BUT I really wish an air-con and bug repellents were organised before hand. It was a summer night so it was so hot we had to open a window(no air-con) and the mosquitoes kept us up all night-never slept at all.Ants and spiders on the floor and in the bathtub I felt like I needed to wear my shoes in the shower. This is a real pity as the service we received, the food and the room was really nice. The bugs just made me want to run home. The shower also doesn't get hot enough...when I got home the first thing I did was have a nice hot shower. Get an air-con, a bug exterminator and a Geezer that works and I would recommend this place in a heart beat!"

• "Ideal and affordable romantic getaway"

  04 November 2013

  "Pros: We had a great time, the room was 5 stars and very well decorated with quality designs. Ideal for a romantic getaway, we didn't need to go anywhere. Cons: With that said, the pool was not clean so we couldn't swim. Like we planned and as for the breakfast, what is breakfast without eggs?"

  28 October 2013

  "What an experience did enjoy every moment of our stay."

• "Can do better!"

  11 October 2013

  "I really don't like the way breakfast is served in take-away plastic. Unappetizing and bad for the planet. Breakfast our first morning was really mediocre (soggy bread sandwiches, not so fresh muffins). The second day was much better - fresh quiche and muffins. Otherwise pleasant enough."

• "An amazing mid-week break!"

  14 July 2013

  "What a pleasant surprise - little cottages nestled together next to a game conservancy. The Honeymoon suite was lovely, spacious and well equipped. The free-standing spa bath was a winner! The breakfasts were such an enjoyable pleasure every morning and the staff were pleasant, friendly and unobtrusive in going about their servicing of the room. Being surprised by an array of antelope, zebras and giraffe at the watering hole throughout our stay, made the experience exponentially better. We loved every minute and felt really sad leaving after our 3 nights. LOVED IT and we will most certainly go back. We can highly recommend this as a fantastic romantic break-away!"
