Breathtaking, the people and place are phenomenal. A hidden gem in the Karoo – Karoo Vreugde exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived at Karoo Vreugde, we were welcomed with a warm, genuine hospitality that made us feel more like family than guests. This place truly lives up to its name – “Vreugde” means joy, and that’s exactly what we found here. The setting is breathtaking – vast expanses of sky, the peaceful silence of the Karoo, and views that stretch for miles. The accommodation is beautifully appointed – a perfect balance between rustic charm and modern comfort. Everything was spotlessly clean and laid out with care, with small details like homemade treats and fresh flowers that really made the difference. What really made the experience unforgettable, however, was the service. The host went above and beyond to make us feel at home and cared for – always available when we needed him, but never intrusive. Whether it was local travel tips, stories about the area or delicious meals celebrating the local flavours – their passion for hospitality clearly shone through. Evenings around the fire under a starry sky, hearty breakfasts with fresh farm produce, and moments of peace and quiet – Karoo Vreugde is much more than just a place to stay. It’s a place to reconnect, catch your breath, and leave lighter-hearted than when you arrived. As well as the incredibly beautiful drives they offer, they are simply unforgettable! We highly recommend it, and are already dreaming of our next visit.

Asemrowend, die mense en plek is fenomenaal. ’n Wegesteekte juweel in die Karoo – Karoo Vreugde het al ons verwagtinge oortref. Van die oomblik wat ons by Karoo Vreugde aangekom het, is ons verwelkom met ’n warm, opregte gasvryheid wat ons eerder soos familie as gaste laat voel het. Hierdie plek doen werklik sy naam gestand – “Vreugde” beteken blydskap, en dis presies wat ons hier gevind het. Die omgewing is asemrowend – uitgestrekte lugruimtes, die rustige stilte van die Karoo, en uitsigte wat kilometers ver strek. Die akkommodasie is pragtig ingerig – ’n perfekte balans tussen rustieke bekoring en moderne gerief. Alles was silwerskoon en met sorg uitgelê, met klein besonderhede soos tuisgemaakte bederfies en vars blomme wat werklik die verskil maak. Wat die ervaring werklik onvergeetlik gemaak het, was egter die diens. Die gasheer het bo sy vermoë gegaan om ons tuis en versorg te laat voel – altyd beskikbaar as ons hom nodig gehad het, maar nooit opdringerig nie. Of dit nou plaaslike reiswenke was, stories oor die omgewing of heerlike etes wat die plaaslike geure vier – hulle passie vir gasvryheid het duidelik deurgeskyn. Aande om die vuur onder ’n sterrehemel, stewige ontbyte met vars plaasprodukte, en oomblikke van stilte en rustigheid – Karoo Vreugde is veel meer as net ’n plek om te oornag. Dis ’n plek om weer te verbind, asem te skep, en ligter van hart te vertrek as toe jy aangekom het. Asook die ongelooflik mooi ritte wat hulle bied, is net onvergeetlik! Ons beveel dit met die grootste liefde aan, en droom reeds van ons volgende kuier.

Quiet, comfortable, friendly, interesting and fun. The facilities, service and hospitality were excellent. We were immediately made to feel at home and integrated into the community. It was so nice that we ended up staying longer.

Rustig, gerieflik, vriendelik, interessant en pret. Die geriewe, diens en gasvryheid was uitmuntend. Ons was onmiddellik tuis laat voel en by die gemeenskap ingetrek. Dit was so lekker dat ons sommer langer gebly het.

Relaxing and friendly atmosphere with a great hot tub. Just missing a wash up area. We had a pleasant stay at Karoo Vreugde. Although the owner was not available at the time, the neighbours were incredibly friendly and helpful, which made us feel right at home. We especially loved the wood-fired hot tub. The accommodation was comfortable and well equipped with dishes and a braai area. However, a dedicated space for washing up would have made things more convenient.

Pleasant stay, very beautiful surroundings. Karoo Vreugde lives up to its name! Nice stay and the Hot Tub is a great treat. Kobus is a pleasant host who markets his beautiful town very well.

Aangename verblyf, baie mooi omgewing. Karoo Vreugde doen sy naam gestand! Lekker verblyf en die Hot Tub is 'n groot bederf. Kobus is 'n aangename gasheer wat sy mooi dorp baie goed bemark.

Clean and tidy - definitely a joy in the Karoo. The highlight is definitely the hot tub on the porch! We hung out on the porch around the table. The accommodation is definitely ideal for a romantic getaway with your loved one.

Skoon en netjies - beslis vreugde in die Karoo. Hoogtepunt is beslis die warmbad op die stoep! Ons het gekuier op die stoep om die tafel. Die akkommodasie is beslis ideaal vir 'n romantiese wegbreek saam jou geliefde.
