Next to river. Kids could go kayaking for free. Nice swimming pool. Close to all attractions.

The apartments are quite close to each other, and so you can hear the other people tenants talk.

good space for family or group, unit accommodates 5 or 6 people (we were just 2 adults and 1 child). well equipped for self catering. nice balcony with comfy chairs.

unit next to the play area, got a bit noisy at times, not a big deal. kitchen is missing a nice sharp knife for food prep, and perhaps a good pair of thongs for grilling.

I loves the overall location and the extras (pool, kayak). Beautiful, peaceful scenery.

The linen in apartment 3 was torn. The duvet inner was too small for the duvet covers, just slept without it in the end. The overall care of the bathrooms could be improved.

perfectly surrounded by water and beauty and out of town.

the noise from the downstairs children and the neighbours which were up since 4am banging and switching on all the bright lights. also the traffic on the road behind the loader gets quite loud.

Clean and comfortable, with all the DSTV channels, catch-up and they cleaned our apartment. Such a treat! Amazing views from the bedroom and lounge area.

The utensils were not up to standard.
