An amazing stay! What a delightful stay! We felt so at home. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, and we all fell in love with Lulu the dog. Breakfasts were lovely and served with a smile. The rooms were spacious and we all slept well. Definitely worth a return visit.

Our stay at Saxon Lodge was very pleasant. We had a very comfortable stay. Breakfast was very pleasant. Location is in the older area of Gansbaai overlooking the harbor and several fish factories and caravan park. However, for a 4-star lodge we expected more in terms of view and location.

Ons verblyf by Saxon Lodge was heel aangenaam. Ons het heel gerieflik vertoef. Ontbyt was baie aangenaam. Ligging is in die ouer area van Gansbaai met uitkyk op die hawe en verskeie visfabrieke en karavaanpark. Vir 'n 4-ster lodge het ons egter meer verwag betreffende uitsig en ligging.

Hello Hendrik Thank you for your review. Our website and information on the platform is very clear about our position above the harbour and this would then be your choice to make the booking based on where we are positioned. It also has nothing to do with the rating from TGSA, which measures what we can have impact on within the lodge. The majority of our guests love the view and activity provided by the harbour and the bay. Warm regards, in peace Caron

Peaceful stay near the harbour. I had a 7-day stay which was very peaceful. The property/unit was neat and clean, and the staff was friendly. WiFi is fast and stable (~75mbps). They have a very cosy bar area, although I did not use it. I stayed during low season and got a free upgrade to one of the self-catering units. Overall, good value for money!

Wish I could stay longer. It was more than I expected. The room had a lounge as well to my surprise. I stayed in the sanctuary room.

Much as expected although not sure being central means much in Gansbaai anymore. We went during a quiet time of the year, so all was relatively quiet. Great sunset views.

It was neat, but the buildings and dining hall were neglected and there was no safe parking. It was fine for one night's sleep, but the information as given by the internet is not correct. You have to look around to find someone to help you.

Dit was netjies, maar die geboue en eetsaal was verwaarloos en daar was geen veilige parkeering nie. Dit was reg vir een aand se slaap, maar die inligting soos weergegee deur die internet is nie korrek nie. Jy moet maar rondval om iemand te kry om jou van hulp te wees.

Thank you for your review Please assist with letting us know what was 'verwaarloos'. We have kept the space old worldly and rustic as this is the personality of the lodge. You chose the cheapest, economy room for your stay and when I approached you to ask how your stay was, there were no complaints. We have never claimed lock-up parking. We are clear about the Courtyard suites being on the south side of the courtyard and have targeted this to the budget traveller. I am also surprised you were unable to get assistance; however, I also accept that was your experience. Ours in general is that when guests do not engage fully with us, they tend to have a lot to say when asked to review. Blessings for your new year. Regards Caron
