Fantastic stay. Highly recommended, especially for the price. Only thing is the shower is one of these where you can't close it all the way, so the bathroom floor tends to get wet, and the taps are a bit finicky. The shower head is also not great. But other than the shower, really nice, neat, comfortable little chalet, with air con, tv, braai, full kitchen ,wi-fi, and enough to do to keep the family busy for a good 3 nights. ##### Fabricio Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Major 10 Nov 2023 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Reconnect with nature I understand that those are old designed chalets, but they need to be kept in good condition. The interior infrastructure seem to be dilapidated and not taken care of. The sheets are clean but not up to the standard I had expected for such a place. Be that as it may, I enjoyed my stay and it allowed me to reconnect with the nature. ##### Major Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ALEXIA 19 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Loved it What a wonderful experience! Would highly recommend. Staff at the Hotel were amazingly friendly and professional. From Reception to room service to breakfast staff just outstanding!! The Auqua Dome was VERY disappointing. The staff open when they want to. Literally an hour after the board signs says and online times. The only slide is not always open as the life guard wants to chat to his friends so closes and opens at random. If you ask him to use the slide he will tell you in 20 minutes. ##### ALEXIA Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Ockert 15 Sept 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort I enjoyed my privateness and the stay, the speedbumps is a bit of a pain ##### Ockert Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Praise 27 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Emarald delicious brekky I really enjoyed the breakfast that we were served, its honestly the one main thing that stood out for me. ##### Praise Stayed 6 nights in Dec 2022 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Sibonakaliso 10 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities The money is expensive for sleeping only.....if they were breakfast and other entertainment then would've understand ##### Sibonakaliso Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Rudo Thrish 11 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was fine and the lady by the reception who is well curved ,dark in complexion she is to keep ,lovely person and the guy who helped us with moving from another house after we noticed few things needed to be sorted and we got anofher in few minutes Thanks to the team ##### Rudo Thrish Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Portia 30 Jan 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent It was an amazing experience. ##### Portia Stayed 1 night in Jan 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Adrineth 7 Mar 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Beautiful The place waz clean and relaxing.

This includes your front desk manager as even she did not know which rooms are available and which is not. the excuse was. We dont know which rooms are cancelled and which are not. That tells me they dont have access or they dont care or they dont want to do the effort. So I was told the hotel is fully booked. Then when I showed them on line it is not and that I can book a room, then all of a sudden there was a room available ##### Linda Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Finfoot Lake Reserve by Dream Resorts](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg-Hotels-Finfoot-Lake-Reserve.h16221557.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Paris](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paris-Hotels.d179898.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Denpasar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ngurah-Rai-Intl-Airport-Hotels.0-aDPS-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels with a View in Sicily](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Sicily-Hotel-With-A-View.0-0-d6048323-thotelwithaview.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Golden Impalas Bush Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg-Hotels-Golden-Impalas-Bush-Resort-All-Inclusive.h37949213.Hotel-Information) > > [Houseboats Merseyside](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Merseyside-Houseboats.d6046269-aaHouseboats.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Best Western Paradise Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dillon-Hotels-Best-Western-Paradise-Inn.h10807.Hotel-Information) > > [Beach Resorts & Hotels in Jamaica](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Jamaica-Beach-Hotels.0-0-d88-tBeachHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Caravan Parks San Miguel de Salinas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/San-Miguel-De-Salinas-Caravan-Parks.d6173388-aaCaravanParks.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Vivari Hotel and Spa by Mantis](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg-Hotels-Vivari-Hotel-Spa.h39634240.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Montpellier Quarter](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Montpellier-Quarter-Hotels.0-l553248621533024955-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near The Shard](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Shard-Hotels.0-l6273936-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels near Moorgate Underground Station](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Moorgate-Underground-Station-Hotels.d6145945.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Centurion Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Johannesburg-Hotels-The-Centurion-Hotel.h526989.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Arrochar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Arrochar-Hotels.d182736.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Breezes Beach Club & Spa – Half Board](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dongwe-Hotels-Breezes-Beach-Club-Spa-Half-Board.h3522641.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Charleston (CRW)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/crw/manchester-to-charleston) > > [Flights from Gibraltar (GIB) to Bristol (BRS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gib/brs/gibraltar-to-bristol) > > [Flights from Birmingham (BHX) to Multan (MUX)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/bhx/mux/birmingham-to-multan) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > [Xel-Há Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Xel-Ha-Park-Tulum.d6113712.Attraction) ### General > [Visit Noci](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Noci.dx6084502) > > [Visit Manama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manama.dx490) ---
