    We had a very pleasant and relaxing stay
    - Lodge itself is very nice and is located far away from any noise - Rooms are in large huts and offer everything (bathtub, outdoor shower, terrace, large and comfy bed) - The service is extraordinary (during dinner somebody prepares your room for the night, they even washed our car) - Nice pool and dining area - Breakfast and dinner (which we paid extra) are delicious
    - This is a major point: Lodge could (and should) tell guests that they avoid to drive through Motherwell (a unsafe township on the way to Port Elizabeth) - Was by far the most expensive accommodation we had in South Africa (but the most comfortable one) - When they prepare the room for the night, they turn on every light (even when using solar, wasting energy is not very eco)

    The mosquito netting around our bed needed a good wash but was still passable.
