100% we would go back again, excellent staff
Chose this Hotel over others as wanted to enjoy my 60th Birthday in style, this Hotel did not disappoint, on arrival we were upgraded to a one bedroom Apartment, very spacious with large TV's in both the living room and bedroom, immaculately cleaned and regularly checked by the House cleaning team, we always had a new surprise of wonderful towel designs on our bed when we got back in after a day exploring. I cant fault this Hotel in any way, even though myself and my wife are not golfers, it was just the best choice we could have made, Breakfast was more than ample, we would always go to the Club lounge at night for a nite cap and prices for us here than in the 'UK' are a lot cheaper than back Home, however, their service would leave most places behind, the on site Gym is well stocked and there are free Golf Buggies, complete with drivers to get you around the complex 24/7, if you dont like walking. Ample on site parking The main reason for writing this review, is to thank the many wonderful staff who made our stay at Fancourt all the better, from checking in at reception 'Mxolisi', the Lady who always ensured we had a ride to the car park 'Josi', our perfect service every morning at Breakfast 'Joyce', the Room attendant who made us smile with her designs on more than one occasion ' Michelle', the Lady who took care of my wife in the Spa' Precious' and our Friendly Bar man who knows how to make a good Aperol Spritze, 'Xolile' thank you all, we will see you next year!!

Very good stay and will be back.
Very good stay. Very friendly and helpful staff. Restaurants we attended were well serviced and the food good. Room clean and comfortable and well serviced. Bathroom Not originally as clean as I would have liked. Interesting water colour due to tannins so takes a bit of getting used to; hotel may want to advise guests. Golf service was not as slick as I thought it would be; missed out on maximizing our golf due to a shortage of golf carts for Montegu course; mislead on how “easy” it was to walk. Armed with extra information on the two courses would have made it simpler. I will be back.

Magnificent estate
We received a warm welcome and were shown to our room which was spotless. The dinner at the members bar was good, however they initially got our order wrong. We arrived to beautiful balmy weather, however woke to rain so we were not able to play golf! Overall the stay was a "real spoil"!

Fancourt is a fantastic property, an oasis along the Cape Garden Route. Everything is immaculate. you cannot believe that you are in Africa. Golf in the Links was demanding but well worth it. The course was in excellent condition and caddies courteous and knowledgeable

Lovely resort but left us disappointed
Beautiful facility - was supposed to be the highlight of our two week golf trip in SA... check in staff was wonderful and the room was beautiful, but we had issues with our golf booking (tee-times etc) and even though we were completely paid in advance for both the hotel and golf, they made us pay for our first round and then no apology for the mix up and a run-around for reimbursement...not impressed. $430/night and only instant coffee in the room? Unacceptable. Restaurants were ok. You have to stay to play the Links, which was definately worth one night's accommodation, but in retrospect, I would take the money saved by just staying for one night (not 3) and stay somewhere élse in George...for that price, you would get the experience/service that just was "not up to par" at Fancourt.

Almost perfect stay
The hotel deserves it's 5* rating. The setting is perfect and the accommodation is spacious. The only downside was a cold cooked breakfast. The conference centre is excellent and the refreshments were equally so. Would love to spend more time here when passing through George again.

Value for money not great. Having to walk in rain to main building not fun. Parking usually full. Unable to book for dinner in main restaurant twice because it was so busy ( it was Easter time). Next time I would look for alternative.

We used this for an overnight stop along the Garden Route. As a result, we didn't use the facilities for the full. I can see that this would be ideal for golfers.

Heavenly stay.
The only regret I had about staying here was that it was only for 1 night. It was a stop over stay en route to CT via The Garden Route. The staff and management couldn't do enough for us and were so very friendly and welcoming. We ate quite a late meal in one of their restaurants which was excellent quality and very reasonably priced. One night in this beautiful hotel just does not do it any justice.

Good services
The Fancourt was very nice. Many hotels in the area had very small bathrooms and small rooms overall but the Fancourt was spacious. We had two massages and they were top notch. The included breakfast was delicious. Potential travelers should know that you are transported from location to location by porters in golf carts.

We throughly enjoyed our stay at Fancourt. Accommodation and golf good and well organsied. Good spa. Only 2 on site restuarants - both closed 2 nigths per week. Different nights but this limited choice. Woukd be better to have the Italian Restuarant open each evening. We were very satisfied with our stay. Staff and Management extremely polite nd we would certainly visit again

Exceptional Service
Fancourt had some of the best service I have ever experienced in a hotel. The concierge even swapped my rental car for me (while I was golfing) after I got a flat tire. The restaurants were very good, hotel and grounds very nice. Our room was very nice with spacious bathroom. One negative - the carpeting in our room was very dirty. Hard to understand why they wouldn't replace it given how nice everything else was. The service made up for it though, everyone at the hotel is extremely friendly and helpful.

Schönes Hotel für Golfer
Hotelservice klasse, allerdings hat man uns zu erst als Standardzimmer eine Dachkammer direkt neben der Hauptstraße angeboten. Uns wurde aber ein anderes Zimmer angeboten, wesentlich ruhiger, sehr komfortabel, üblicherweise aber in einer anderen Preiskategorie. Beim Essen im Henry White Diner Restaurant gab es leider von drei Nachspeise eine nicht mehr uns ausgerechnet den Baumkuchen.
