Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

A very nice small hotel in a very green surrounding. Nice rooms, a beautiful garden montain view and a small but refreshing pool. The breakfast is really tasteful and there is nothing what we have missed. By car it is 10 minutes drive to Stellenbosch. We enjoyed our stay absolutely.

We had the most incredible time at Sugarbird Manor for our wedding weekend. The views are spectacular, the breakfasts were delicious, and Jannie and his staff went completely above and beyond for us to ensure that our bridal party felt at home at Sugarbird for the weekend. We would 10/10 recommend staying at Sugarbird to anyone looking for accommodation in Stellies

A venue that delivered on every aspect from initial booking, exceptional communication throughout and the most homely atmosphere and care during our stay. Our room in the courtyard was ideally placed to enjoy the surrounding grounds and facilities. If we are ever back this way again, expect us to stay once once more.

We enjoyed a 3 night stay in one of the cottages and found everything to be first class The accommodation was lovely with everything you could wish for. Lovely toiletries included and the room was serviced each day The property is situated on the most gorgeous location overlooking vineyards with wonderful views Breakfast is excellent and the home made granola yummy! The staff are very friendly and let you know by WhatsApp when things like taxis arrive We also enjoyed meeting the 2 cats and the hen! We had no issue getting taxis into Stellanbosch including Uber Would highly recommend a stay here

After our fligth to Cape Town it was just a quiet place to stay. Kind owner who responded to our wishes. The food was freshly prepared and fine. It is a nice place and the room had plenty of space. We enjoyed our stay in the middle of vineyards far away from the City.

We had a wonderful stay at Sugarbird Manor. It’s located beautifully amidst lush nature with a view of the vineyards around. High service quality, they make you feel right at home. Nice pool areas to unwind from your visits to the surrounding area. Good a la carte breakfast (daily special, English, your choice of eggs, fruits, granola) on the terrace outside. We had a courtyard room which was very nice with a modern bathroom, safe, AC. We can definitely recommend staying here!

We stayed for 5 nights in one of the cottages and it was a great experience. The cottage itself was spacious, well-maintained and equipped and perfectly clean. We could park the car right next to it. The overall layout of Sugarbird Manor is very generous, you can have a walk in their wineyards, take a swim and relax in one of the pools (one attached to the cottages, the other closer to the rooms in the main house - anyway you can use whichever you like better). Breakfast was served on the terrace with a beautiful view. To Stellenbosch it takes around 10 min. by car or Uber (which also worked without any problem) All the great wineries are very close and also to take a tour to Franschhoek only takes a 45 min drive. Janni and all the team where very friendly and helpful, we can highly recommend Sugarbird Manor and will certainly come back (we have already booked for next year again...)

We had a very pleasant and enjoyable 4 nights here. Jan, the manager, was most helpful and sorted out a problem swiftly and to our satisfaction. Altogether very good staff. A lovely hotel in a beautiful rural setting with easy access to Stellenbosch. Highly reccomended.

My stay was short but the staff were friendly, the room spacious and clean, the toiletries they used smelt wonderful and I was very happy with everything. Excellent communication from their team too. I wish I had stayed longer.

Sugarbird manor is a very relaxing place. In the middle of winefields very central. Modern hotel with good rooms and swimming pool. Nice walk around the estate or a relax at two of the swimming pools. Easy parking.
