Forest Creek Lodge & Spa

We had a very pleasant stay at Forest Creek Lodge between the 15th and 18th of July 2024. We stayed in the Narina Suite, which had a very spacious bedroom and bathroom with both being very nicely designed with attractive furnishings. The staff were very friendly and helpful, however I would like to just suggest that management ensure that the staff are more engaging, when one arrives to check in. We arrived at the lounge/dining room at the lodge as there was no signage for “Reception” and although there were 2 staff members in the area we were not greeted. Based on this and no communication we started wondering if we were in the right place to check in. After a few minutes, I asked the 2 staff members where we should check in, and only then did they confirm we were in the right place. We chose the Breakfast and Dinner option and really enjoyed the food. A big thank you to Anita for being exceptionally helpful with providing lovely vegetarian menu options. Anita even phoned me, before we arrived, to confirm that we were happy with the meal options. I would also like to suggest that the last 4 kms of road to the lodge be addressed as it is very technical and rocky. We did not personally have any issues driving the last 4 kms to the lodge, as we were travelling in our Land Rover. All in All, Forest Creek Lodge certainly provides one with peace and tranquillity and wonderful options for hiking, if that is what you enjoy doing.

We booked this lodge based on the reviews and photos. I think the reviews have been made up. This place sadly is a sinking ship. The setting and views offer enormous potential but the owners have lost interest. We never saw them. The 4km sand road is horrendous with at times one wheel in the air negotiating rocks and dongas. We left early after 2 days.

Very beautiful setting. staff was amazing and helpful. rooms were clean and excellent to stay in. awesome hiking trials and just so relaxing. i will be going back. set in the mountains. quite and relaxing

Lovely place with amazing views from the Beach Cottage. Would definitely return but would think twice about driving up the mountain if wet, the possibility of being collect at the base was not explained before we arrived. If self catering then some of the basics may be needed, eg cutting board, wine glasses..

We had an awesome weekend, peaceful and tranquil. An ideal getaway for those who just wants to enjoy nature and a bit of quietness from the city hustle. The trails are a must! Absolutely wonderful to enjoy the beauty a nature! We will definitely recommend Forest Creak Lodge.
