Me and my partner decided on a little break away from the city and we came across Savannah Game And River retreat on SA Venues. It really looked appealing and exactly what we were looking for. We made a booking for the weekend of 13th February with check out only for Monday, to give us some more time to relax. During our stay we really enjoyed the nature. The Staff were VERY friendly in particular Suzan and Julia. They were very helpful and always smiling. The Game drive was lovely and really enjoyed seeing the rest of the farm. However there were a few things that we feel they can improve on and would like to make some suggestions : - The Luxury Tented chalets are said to be self catering, but there is no fridge, or mini Kitchenette available - Dustbins and big rubbish bins are not readily available : something good to maybe add - hiking trail : unfortunately was overgrown and completely flooded. It seemed like the staff wasn’t aware of that. Fishing area seemed deserted and unkempt. Maybe see to cut a new path around the old one. - Over all facilities seemed poorly maintained and in areas very dilapidated. - No house keeping service - on the Sunday , we were the only guests still remaining and it seemed like this was unfamiliar to them as they had only One staff member that stayed behind to assist us on the Sunday. Suzan as previously said was amazing , but felt sorry for her to have to deal with everything on her own, including no arrangement for her for transport the next morning when we checked out. This place shows a lot of potential to be the best break away spot , but clearly needs some TLC and improvement. The valentine’s braai in the Bouma was exceptional and very well organised. Also the food was lovely. Though it was not the best, we did enjoy the breakaway but would prefer visiting another place next time around.

Baie swak diens!

Ons het in 'n rondawel gebly wat baie basies was, skoon met 'n gemaklike groot bed. Die stort is klein, die wasbak is baie klein, en geen rakke om jou toiletware te sit nie. Geen spieël in die badkamer nie en die slaapkamer was redelik donker. Kamer het 'n koffie stasie, maar geen yskas. Baie gewoonlikke ontbyt. Nie die Geld werd nie. Baie ander (lekker) plekke in die omgewing.
