Lovely self-catering/pet-friendly accommodation with space for the whole family. First impressions are lasting. Can recommend with confidence as self-catering accommodation/pet-friendly. Really enjoyed the space inside, outside and on the barbecue patio. Communication with the hostess was quick after booking there until check out, information about the area and what to visit was also shared.

Heerlike selfsorg/troeteldier-vriendelike verblyf met spasie vir die hele gesin. Eerste indrukke is blywend. Kan met 'n geruste hart aanbeveel as selfsorgverblyf/troeteldier-vriendelik. Het die ruimte binne, buite en op die braaistoep vreeslik geniet. Kommunikasie met die gasvrou was vinnig na bespreking daar tot en met uitboek, inligting oor die omgewing en wat om te besoek is ook gedeel.

Wonderful, wonderful house and hostess. We had a wonderful stay, everything was just perfect. Bev is so helpful, sending every little thing via WP and e-mail. We slept great, we received sherry on our arrival. Nice fireplace that burns with wood for the rest of the weekend for the cold. The house is very nice and clean and received us very kindly. Our girlfriends couldn't get enough of the wonderful house and everything Bev did for us. She suggested all the places where we could eat or visit. See us again for sure. You can't get better than that.

Wonderlike, wonderlike huis en gasvrou. Ons het heerlik gebly, alles was net perfek. Bev is so behulpsaam, stuur elke liewe dingetjie deur per WP en e-mail. Ons het heerlik geslaap, ons het sjerry ontvang met ons aankoms. Lekker kaggel wat brand met hout vir die res van die naweek vir die koue. Die huis is baie mooi skoon en het ons baie vriendelik ontvang. Ons vriendinne kon nie uitgepraat raak oor die wonderlike huis en alles wat Bev vir ons gedoen het nie. Sy het al die plekkies voorgestel waar ons iets kon gaan eet of kon besoek. Sien ons vir seker weer. Beter as dit kan jy nie kry nie.

Our stay was very pleasant and comfortable, the hostess was very helpful. We had a great stay, the place is spacious and comfortable for 8 people. Very neat and the kitchen has everything you need. The sleeper couch was just not comfortable.

Ons kuier was baie lekker en gerieflik, gasvrou is baie behulpsaam. Ons het vreeslik lekker gebly, plekkie is ruim en gemaklik vir 8 mense. Baie netjies en die kombuis het alles wat jy nodig het. Die sleeper couch was net nie gemaklik nie.

Pleasant with breathtaking views. You can sometimes be fooled by the pictures, but this is not the case here. The house is comfortable, clean and practically designed, and the views are breathtaking. We were 4 adults, 2 children, and with 3 dogs there was more than enough space for everyone. The house is a short walk from the town center, but nothing too serious, and we did it a few times. We would love to stay here again if we are in the area.

Aangenaam met asemrowende uitsigte. Mens word soms mislei deur die foto's, maar hier is dit nie die geval nie. Die huis is gerieflik, skoon en prakties uitgedink, en die uitsigte is asemrowend. Ons was 4 grootmense, 2 kinders, en met 3 honde was daar meer as genoeg spasie vir almal. Die huis is 'n entjie se stap van die middedorp af, maar niks te ernstig nie, en het ons dit 'n paar keer gedoen. Ons sal graag weer hier wil kom bly as ons in die area is.

Great place, dog friendly, kid friendly, hospitality was excellent. Brilliant! We had a wonderful stay. Rhino Retreat is a real gem in Clarens. The welcome we had was fantastic. It is honestly the first time ever that we arrived at a place to find a doggy water bowl already filled and a doggy guest bed. There was also a personalised note to welcome me and my family. Clearly, the owners care about their guests. The place is fantastic for a family stay. Well-stocked kitchen, comfortable beds, great quality bedding, and a fabulous stoep to watch sunsets from. We will surely return!

Hi Yolanda, Thank you for sharing your review. While we respect your feelings about the location, we believe we offered the best possible service, clear communication, and a home that was pristine in cleanliness. Clarens is a warm and safe community, and we have never experienced any incidents or guests feeling unsafe here. We were, however, surprised and disappointed by the disrespectful tone used by your husband, especially given our offers to assist with alternative accommodations and providing additional security (regular patrols done by our security company). We always aim to provide a welcoming and positive experience for all our guests and take feedback seriously to continue improving.

Outstanding! We slept really well. Hey, hey! Beautiful view, very well furnished house with the living area and porch. Rooms are cozy, well furnished and very comfortable, the shower was amazing! We will be having a 'reunion' again next year and will definitely recommend us. Oh, yes, our 2 male children enjoyed it a lot too!

Uitstekend! Ons het regtig lekker geslaap. Hie, hie! Pragtige uitsig, baie goed ingerigte huis met die kuierarea en stoep. Kamers is lekker knus, goed ingerig en baie gemaklik, die stort was amazing! Ons sal volgende jaar weer kom 'reünie' hou en sal ons definitief aanbeveel. O, ja, ons 2 honnekinners het dit ook baie geniet!

Overall our stay at Rhino Retreat was fantastic! We would highly recommend it! Our stay at Rhino Retreat was an absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish. The hospitality was top-notch, and every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. Both the owners and staff were exceptional, very friendly and professional, and always willing to go the extra mile to ensure our comfort. We would highly recommend Rhino Retreat to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable stay in Clarens. And also highly recommended for families with children.
