Highly recommended family getaway! Summerplace was an absolute gem. We stayed in Marula, which was fenced and pet friendly. The farm is meticulously maintained. The restaurant and pool area were beautiful. The owners and staff were super friendly. We will be back!

Tranquil. We booked into Rosemary Cottage with my family. Such a spacious and lovely unit. Fully equipped for a family and stylish. I enjoyed the access to the tennis court, the restaurant was nice and the staff were so friendly.

Beautiful accommodation with a restaurant and great hiking and cycling trails. Beautiful place. Well marked cycling and walking paths. Beautiful scenery. The staff are exceptionally friendly and very well trained. The shed 3 looks just like the photos. Saw a lot of wildlife and a rich birdlife. Highly recommended.

Pragtige verblyf met 'n restaurant en wonderlike stap- en fietsryroetes. Pragtige plek. Goed gemerkte fietsry- en stappaaie. Pragtige natuurskoon. Die personeel is besonders vriendelik en baie goed opgelei. Die shed 3 lyk net soos op die fotos. Heelwat wild gesien en 'n ryk voëllewe. Hoogs aan te beveel.

Nice, clean and very enjoyable. Very nice, and everything was a pleasure to experience, and would love to go again.

Lekker, skoon en baie genotvol. Baie lekker, en alles was 'n plesier om te ondervind, en sal graag weer wil gaan.

What a gem! We had an exceptional vacation stay and truly enjoyed our time at the property. The views were absolutely breathtaking and made the experience even more special. The pictures don't do enough justice to the place. The game drive was beautiful and definitely one of the highlights of our trip, although we experienced a power issue on the first night. The staff were extremely attentive, willing to help and handled the situation professionally. Their friendliness and dedication really stood out and made us feel well taken care of throughout our stay. We also loved the Amarula coffee and enjoyed visiting the farm, which is very quiet, spacious and beautifully maintained. Overall, despite the minor inconvenience on the first night, our experience was wonderful and we would gladly recommend this place to others. PS: Coming back soon for the hideout unit.

Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We’re truly thrilled to hear that you had such an exceptional stay with us at Summerplace Game Reserve. It’s wonderful to know that the breathtaking views and peaceful surroundings made your experience so memorable — we completely agree, photos never quite capture the full magic of the reserve! We’re especially happy that you enjoyed the game drive — it’s always a highlight — and that the farm visit and quiet, spacious environment added to your experience. And we’re glad the Amarula coffee was a hit too! Thank you as well for your understanding regarding the power issue on your first night. We sincerely appreciate your patience, and we’re proud that our team was able to assist you promptly and make you feel well looked after. Your kind words about our staff mean a great deal to us — we’ll be sure to share your feedback with them. We absolutely love the “PS” — we look forward to welcoming you back soon, especially to the Hideout unit! Warm regards, Summerplace Game Reserve Team

Absolutely wonderful - but no TV in tents / no WiFi in tents / no game. Would recommend only cyclists - everything else like non-existent game and non self-catering is a let down.

Thank you for your feedback — we truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience with us. We’re very glad that you found your stay “absolutely wonderful,” although we’re sorry to hear that certain aspects did not meet your expectations. As a nature-focused reserve, our tented accommodation is designed to offer a more rustic and off-the-grid experience, which is why units do not have TVs and WiFi access is limited. We do understand that this may not suit every guest, and we appreciate your honest feedback in this regard. Regarding the wildlife, sightings can vary as all animals roam freely across the reserve and surrounding areas, which is part of maintaining a natural environment. That said, we always aim to provide the best possible game viewing experience and will continue working on improving this aspect. Thank you also for your note regarding self-catering — we have already reviewed how we communicate this to ensure expectations are clearer before arrival. We value your comments as they help us improve, and we hope we may have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for an even better experience. Kind regards, Summerplace Game Reserve Team
