Great place. Great price. Great staff. Great place. Value for money. Staff were friendly and very welcoming. I suggest, however, that the lighting in the living area be improved.

Thank you very much to Mike and Lenette. We had a great time. Bed sleep a little uncomfortable.

Baie dankie aan Mike en Lenette. Ons het baie lekker gekuier. Bed slaap bietjie ongemaklik.

The people were very nice, but the place was not worth the price. We were happy with the rooms, and the green gardens around us were very nice. We were not happy with how small the living area kitchen is. It's very neat! The kitchen is also not well equipped at all. The other problem was that there is only one 'prep-bowl' for a sink in which you have to wash dishes, and the space where you put the dishes on the drying rack is also the space where you have to prepare food. In other words, if there are dishes on the rack, there is no place for you to cook food. You literally have to guard the drying rack for the piece of countertop space next to the stove. There is also no cleaning service, not even someone to bring a new black bag for the indoor trash can. We also found out on the day of our arrival that there is a limit to how much power we can use, otherwise an amount will be deducted from our cash deposit. We didn't go over the number of units they allow per day, but you feel so unsure about how much power you can actually use. The shower wasn't the best either, and the bathroom smelled like cannabis all the time for some reason. We don't smoke at all. No WiFi was available.

Die mense was baie gaaf, maar die plek was nie die prys werd nie. Ons was tevrede met die kamers, en die groen tuine om ons was baie mooi. Ons was nie gelukkig met hoe klein die leefarea-kombuis is nie. Dis baie knap! Die kombuis is ook glad nie goed toegerus nie. Die ander probleem was dat daar net een 'prep-bowl' is vir 'n wasbak waarin jy skottelgoed moet was, en die spasie waar jy die skottelgoed op die droograk pak, is ook die spasie waar jy kos moet voorberei. Met ander woorde, as daar skottelgoed op die rakkie is, is daar geen plek vir jou om kos te maak nie. Jy moet letterlik die droograkkie wagvat vir die stuk blad spasie langs die stoof. Daar is ook geen skoonmaakdienste nie, nie eers iemand wat 'n nuwe swartsak bring vir die binne-asblik nie. Ons het ook op die dag van ons aankoms uitgevind dat daar 'n limiet is van hoeveel krag ons kan gebruik, anders word 'n bedrag van ons kontant deposito afgetrek. Ons het toe nie oor die hoeveelheid eenhede gegaan wat hulle per dag toelaat nie, maar mens voel so onseker hoeveel krag dit nou eintlik is wat mens kan gebruik. Die stort was ook nie die beste nie, en die badkamer het heeltyd soos cannabis geruik vir een of ander rede. Ons rook glad nie. Geen WiFi was beskikbaar nie.

Hello Jaco, thanks for your review and we are sorry you didn't enjoy your stay. The chalets are rather small, but unfortunately there is nothing we can do about the size as we did not construct them; we had to work with what we had. Regarding the electricity, we took averages over 18 months to come to the 10 units per day allowance. The reason we charge for extra consumption of electricity is that we try to keep our prices as reasonable as possible for everyone to benefit from. The dustbin bags not being changed will be dealt with as they should have been changed every third day. As for a cannabis smell, unfortunately we cannot be held responsible for what others do. Kind regards River Valley Resort management

Good value for money. Well recommended. Relaxing, quiet environment. Well-kept and neat. Comfortable beds, however, the sleeper couch needs an upgrade. Nice to have a diner on the property. Good food available.

Quiet and cozy. Very nice stay. It is about a 5/8 minute drive from the main beach. Neat clean pool and play areas for children.

Rustig en gesellig. Baie lekker gebly. Dit is so 5/8min se ry van die hoofstrand af. Netjiese skoon swembad en speelareas vir kinders.
