“Nice view but basics disappointing for a 5-star”

Reviewed 4 April 2013

This was the first stop on our 2-week honeymoon trip along the Garden Route. (We subsequently stayed at another 5-star establishment and unfortunately had many points of comparison.) We had the honeymoon suite and the view of the lake is spectacular - quite a site to wake up to. However, the honeymoon suite was not clean. We arrived late in... More

Dear Philip I'm very disappointed at such a negative review. As you can see from all our previous reviews, your 3 out of 5 star rating is not the norm. Perhaps even exceptionally strange? The standard that you describe is not fitting with the standard that we maintain at Lodge on the Lake. Please let me clarify a few points:... More

“Very peaceful and relaxing place with great views”

Reviewed 28 March 2013

Wilderness is one of the best places at the garden route and lies directly on the N2, ideal to stop and rest for a few days in between the travelling along the spectacular garden route. The Lodge On The Lake is definitely a high quality small hotel with breathtaking views. Only 5 rooms, all different from each other, all facing... More

Thanks Claudini76! You summed us up beautifully! I look forward to your next visit.. More

This was the first night on my honeymoon and I was extremely impressed with the honemoon sweet. We arrived late in the evening and had a resevation at serendipidy which was also of a very high standard. Once we woke up and I opened the curtains, my wife was blown away with the view and was disappointed to leave the... More

Nick, thanks for the great review! Having couples on their Honeymoon is always special, and I wish you a long and happy marriage. Your review says it all, fortunately we are blessed with a spectacular view at Lodge on the Lake, but we realize that we cant count on that to be the only thing that makes our guesthouse special....

Reviewed 28 February 2013

We went to the spa for a hot stone massage, which was very enjoyable. The staff were very attentive and everything was beautifully organised. When we booked, we enquired whether we could both have a massage at the same time - they specifically organised a second masseuse to come in to accommodate this. After the massage, we were offered a... More
