Well appointed and centrally located to explore the amazing surrounding areas. Kata Charis is centrally located to explore all the surrounding areas. It is located a short distance from Hazyview in the serene countryside. The unit is very well appointed and everything is as advertised. The hosts were very helpful and friendly, replying promptly to any questions or requests. We explored Hazyview, Graskop and the Blyde River Canyon area, and the experience was wonderful. We also spent one day travelling through the Kruger via the Phambeni gate, which is about a 30-minute drive from the Lodge.

Extremely disappointing! Naand, I am extremely disappointed in the service I received from the website, as we did not even check in to the place we booked. We were not aware that there was a dirt road to the place, as it was not mentioned anywhere in the description. I called the website and said we wanted to cancel, and then we were told that the website would call the owner and find out what was going on. The owner then called us and said he would meet us at his lodge. We drove there, but the dirt road was very bad and our car was damaged. The owner was very arrogant and just kept saying that the road was in good condition — which was definitely not the truth. We explained to him that we wanted to drive around every day and that the road was very bad for our car, to which he said we should have done our homework. We left there and had to rush to find a place to sleep for the night at five o'clock in the evening. To my disappointment, we were told on the website that it was up to the owner to refund our money, and he refused. Does the website then have no power to confront the owner to refund the client's money? He can take a deposit, but to pocket the full R7 200 is actually theft to me. I will seek legal advice and the website will hear from me soon. I would definitely not recommend the website, because the client is powerless in a situation like ours.

Uiters teleurstellend! Naand, Ek is uiters teleurgesteld in die diens wat ek van die webtuiste ontvang het, aangesien ons nie eens ingeboek het by die plek waar ons bespreek het nie. Ons was nie bewus daarvan dat daar ’n grondpad na die plek was nie, aangesien dit nerens in die beskrywing genoem word nie. Ek het die webtuiste geskakel en gesê ons wil kanselleer, en toe is daar vir ons gesê dat die webtuiste die eienaar sal skakel en hoor wat aangaan. Die eienaar het ons toe geskakel en gesê hy kry ons by sy lodge. Ons het daarheen gery, maar die grondpad was baie sleg en ons kar het onder skade gekry. Die eienaar was baie arrogant en het net bly sê die pad is in goeie toestand — wat beslis nie die waarheid was nie. Ons het aan hom verduidelik dat ons elke dag wil rondry en dat die pad baie sleg is vir ons kar, waarop hy gesê het ons moes ons huiswerk gedoen het. Ons is daar weg en moes inderhaas vyfuur die aand slaapplek soek vir die nag. Tot my teleurstelling in die webtuiste, moes ons hoor dat dit glo van die eienaar afhang of hy ons geld wil teruggee, en hy weier. Het die webtuiste dan geen mag om die eienaar te konfronteer om die kliënt se geld terug te gee nie? Hy kan ’n deposito vat, maar om die volle R7 200 in sy sak te druk, is vir my eintlik diefstal. Ek gaan regsadvies inwin en die webtuiste sal spoedig van my hoor. Ek sal die webtuiste beslis nie aanbeveel nie, want die kliënt is magteloos in so ’n situasie soos ons s’n.

Kata Charis is an excellent choice for switching off without noise. Lovely spacious place to stay - peaceful and quiet in the woods. Everything you need. Well equipped for self catering.

Kata Charis is 'n uitstekende keuse vir afskakel sonder geraas. Lieflike ruim blyplek - rustig en stil in die bos. Alles wat jy nodig het. Goed toegerus vir selfsorg.

Beautiful and peaceful surroundings with very comfortable accommodation. Incredibly beautiful area with very comfortable accommodation and friendly and helpful host. Close to many tourist attractions and Kruger Wildlife Park. Even saw the beautiful blue-crested lorie a few times. Can definitely recommend and book again.

Pragtige en rustige omgewing met baie gemaklike verblyf. Ongelooflike mooi area met baie gemaklike akkommodasie en vriendelike en hulpvaardige gasheer. Naby baie toeristebesienswaardighede en Kruger Wildtuin. Het selfs die pragtige bloukuifloerie 'n paar keer gesien. Kan definitief aanbeveel en weer bespreek.
