"Very unpleasant stay!!On arrival we immediately requested to be moved to another room for cabin booked is right next to the communal braai aria, cabins are made of very thin wood, door have huge gaps, everyone walking past can hear and see you if the light is on. Cabins are poorly maintained, smells like damp and so close to one another that you can hear people in the other rooms. If you plan on sleeping, dont Ever book accommodation at Natural Moments!The gas bottles were empty, no hot waterThe communal toilet facilities were very un hygienic Shower was blockedThe share fridges are Filthy and some of our food disappeared during our stay. Other guests also complained whilst we were there about all of the above mentioned and said they won't ever book there again in future. Management have a complete dont care attitude, they do apologize and are fully aware of the issues but seems like they cant really care or dont want to action complaints by guests. They failed to move us to another cabin as per our request with more invalid excuses and we ended up leaving early, not sleeping there for conditions are terrible!They never even offered to refund the night we did tot stay.Natural Moments Bush Camp is by far the (Don't Ever Go There Place to stay in Sodwana!!!)"
"<p style="margin: 0cm 0cm 0pt; line-height: normal;"><span style="color: rgb(88, 88, 88); font-size: 12pt;">Arrived the Thursday and went back home the following day. Had to search for someone to book me in. person that helped me smelt strong of alcohol, it was so bad that my children realized it. Was bitten up by something. Bedding and accommodation dirty and smelly. Electrical wiring unsafe. When leaving the next day I had to search again for someone to assist me with booking out, with no luck I left without notifying anyone. Will never return to natural moments.</span></p>"
"Cute little pathways, friendly staff, comfortable accommodation. Very nice stay here, will definitely come here again"
""villaggio" immerso nel verde. C' tutto il necessario. A pochi passi ci sono anche vari locali per mangiare bede e passare una serata piacevole. "Village" in the countryside. There is everything you need. There are also various places to eat and spend a pleasant evening within walking distance."
"I am sure the place is great for a certain crowd. Maybe the in-their-twenties-who-cares-what type divers. But beware of the meaning of "rustic". After walking through the dark, narrow paths leading to our tiny, musty cabin with a latch for a lock, we decided not to stay (and thus lost our considerable booking fee). Admitted, the owner,,Tracy was very kind and understanding, but the place just wasn't for us - and we are experienced backpackers. Again, as she said it, it is "rustic" ... whatever that means ..."
"We had an absolutely wonderful 16 Night stay at Natural Moments, the hospitality and welcome we received from Archie and Tracy was the best that we have ever had. My husband, Me and four kids had the time of our lives. This was a real holiday where my kids became kids again, and our family became closer than ever before. No TV, no Play station, no X box, just the bush, the wonderful sound of the waves breaking and the peace and quiet that we much needed coming from the rat race in Gauteng.The unit we stayed in was a three bedroom, one bathroom, kitchen and braai area, everything was more than we ever expected. It was exceptionally clean and very welcoming.I would recommend Natural Moments to anyone."
"We had a wonderful stay at Natural Moments Bush Camp. It has a lovely laid-back and relaxing vibe with unpretentious hospitality. Very friendly and helpful hosts! Absolutely recommendable, value for money."
"It was wonderful - Tracy and Archie made us feel most comfortable - Natural Moments is not only a camp but also a healing place. Thanks. Will definitely go back!"
"Exceptionally hospitable hostess. Unfortunately the bush camp was not at all what we expected. I would recommend it for young and very sociable backpackers, but not for elderly folks looking for a lodge or typical charlet accommodation. It's very much a tribal community vibe."
"An ideal place to spend at least a weekend to unwind close to the beach. Clean rooms and a homely atmosphere at the bush camp. Thank you Tracy for your hospitality and for making our short stay awesome! Hope to return soon. Thanks for your arrival note, biscuits and coffee."
"We had a lovely stay. Thank you Tracey and Archie for making us feel welcome. It was relaxing and so natural. No rushing or time schedules. What more could one ask for! We will definitely see you again soon."
"Everything was very nice, very friendly people. Will definitely recommend to friends. Thank to Tracey, you made us feel very welcome."
