Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Customer service from the staff was outstanding. All of our meals were delicious, and the chef even came out to say hello and introduce himself. Rooms had everything you need. The grounds were a perfect place for a relaxing afternoon after touring the dunes (Sossusvlei tour booked through the hotel was excellent as well)!

Nein danke

Trotz angeblicher Check in - Zeit von 14 - 20 Uhr war um 15 Uhr niemand an der Reception noch per Telefon erreichbar. Darum mussten wir kurzfristig etwas anderes buchen. So etwas geht gar nicht!
