We had a wonderful stay at Areena Riverside Resort. The setting along the river is peaceful and scenic, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit. We really enjoyed the variety of activities on offer, which made it a great getaway for both relaxation and fun. Overall, a lovely experience and a place we’d happily visit again.

Beautiful setting and great accommodation. We had a wonderful stay at Areena over Easter weekend. There were so many activities for the children. We hope to return soon.

It was great. A great place to take your family and relax in the wilderness. The frustrating part is the extra room service charge and the poor WiFi connection.

I really enjoyed my stay at Areena and received great service from them. I got more than my money's worth. It was truly a memorable stay and I would go back again.

Quiet, exciting and well appointed. Beautiful river view, lots of activities to do, and wildlife viewing from the balcony. Can't go wrong with a visit there!

Rustig, opwindend en goed ingerig. Pragtige uitsig op rivier, baie aktiwiteite om te doen, en wild besigtig vanaf die balkon. Kan nie verkeerd gaan met 'n besoek daar nie!

Timber No. 4 has the best views of the river - beautiful! Nice things to do - quad bikes take you to the most beautiful views and with the Segways you can get very close to the wildlife.

Timber nr 4 het die beste uitsigte op die rivier - pragtig! Lekker doendinge - vierwielmotorfietse vat jou na die mooiste uitsigte en met die Segways kan jy baie naby aan die wild kom.
