Definitely coming back
Pros:

Everything. The Braai at the Restaurant was a cherry on top. Will definitely be back.

Cons:

I personally prefer a bathtub, and a microwave in the room. I could use the reception one, though

Pros:

Extra large double bed,, clean white linen, snacks and location

Cons:

The water pressure in the shower coming from the hot water tap.was difficult to balance with the cold water. At some point I burnt my hand from the hot water because I turned the tap the one way instead if the other way. A mixer will save us all the trouble.

A caring attitude will go a long way.
Cons:

Despite detailed previous reviews on the wheel chair room, they ignored all that. Among other things I complained about the width of the bathroom door. They reduced the bathroom door, made it even smaller by the folding door. There is now a threshold barrier, it is twice as hard to move in and out of the bathroom.
