A good picturesque resort resembling a local village with the rooms being wooden structures on stilts. Its a rural setting looking out over wetland on one side, a veey nice outlook in the mornings eating breakfast. Wood and rural means a not entirely sealed structure so you sleep under mosquito nets with supplied electric repellents, which worked, no bites in 4 nights. The rooms can get hot so run the a/c for several hours before bed. Modern amenities as well as a/c with good WiFi, fridge, tea and coffee facilities. A basic continental breakfast is delivered around 6.30pm for the following morning for you to prepare and eat on your balcony. Unless you are in the Blue room which has no balcony. And eating there indoors is not comfortable. Breakfast is also a bit limited. Bread with butter and jam, cake, some fruit and yoghurt, juice tea or coffee. If you don't like yoghurt, not a lot. The rooms are set well apart from each other in a pleasant garden area with a good size lap pool. Usually quiet around the pool although it did get busy one day when 3 of the rooms were occupied with families of 2 children each. The staff were efficient, friendly and helpful, the iced water at poolside in the afternoons was particularly appreciated. The restaurant was of a very good standard. Well prepared and presented dishes with great service. Food deserving of a bottle of wine which was available from R105 a bottle. Main dishes from around R50 upwards. There is one big negative, the nearby mosque. I don't mind the morning call to prayer at sunrise, its local culture. But I've never experienced a 10 minute loudspeaker preamble 1 hour before sunrise, at 06.00. Then another 10 minutes at 06.30. Then another ten minutes at 07.00. Its like the mosque is next door, there is no ignoring it to get a good night's sleep.
