  • star rating  I'm in love with this place of open roads, open skies, open hearts and open minds. I've met so many wonderful people here, most of all the manager Deon Joubert,... read more for whom absolutly Nothing is too much trouble and who manages everything with a  graceful ease that belies how much hard work is actually going on to ensure every guest gets everything they need and more. Original site of the legendary Afrika Burn, this is a vast dreamspace of peace, freedom,  fun and adventure. An immense playground scattered with epic art-works of breathtaking creativity. It's impossible to describe the boundless generosity of spirit that is etched into its soul. All this within a vast dreamscape of unspoiled geological wonder, infinite horizons,  psychedelic sunsets and a dazzling nightsky. If u want to chill with family and friends, wonder for days without seeing a soul and/or party up a storm in the bar or by the pool, u can't Not be delighted inspired and  rejuvenated here. But beware... Ull never want to leave and ull always dream of returning. More

  • star rating  On arrival we where greeted by none other than Deon Brilletjies. His only concern was for us to check in and pay before even saying hello. Just a simple welcome... read more would have being nice. If this man run any of my businesses i would loose all my clients, Perhaps people stay because there is n o other alternative close by.
    Deon, you where very unprofessional and rude to us. And by the way the man who did not get out of the car to walk to you are disabled, Think before you judge people.
    As long as you are there i would never recommend the place. BAD ATTITUDE !!!

  • star rating  Now that I have been here I figured I made a mistake and misread the reviews...but I did not!
    This place is not for everyone. I never new its... read more proximity to Afrika Burn and this should have guided me.
    Our chalet's carpet had not been cleaned in ages, the tent windows could not zip up and were flapping and the music was incredibly loud. We opted out of staying over and went straight home.
    If you are keen on spending your days at the bar with a crowd, this will be a great place. This is a 'kuier plek'.
    If you are expecting a quiet Karoo spot, with views for ever, this is not it.
