The rooms were very nice and clean. The beds were excellent and so were the pillows. Staff were very friendly, and the breakfast was brilliant. We also had dinner and that was lovely. Our main reason for staying over was to play golf and a halfway house on route to Umhlanga

Our recent family getaway to the breathtaking Drakensberg Sun Resort in South Africa was an unforgettable experience. Nestled amidst the majestic Drakensberg mountains, the resort offered stunning views, serene landscapes, and a perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. We spent our days exploring scenic hiking trails, enjoying the tranquility of the lake, and indulging in the resort’s delightful cuisine. The kids loved the recreational activities, while the adults appreciated the peace and connection with nature. Evenings were spent bonding over board games and sharing laughter around the cozy fireplace.

The location is beautiful with incredible views especially from cottage 4 & 9. Cottage 4 was very nicely decorated and furnished. We opted for the homemade evening meal which was great, as was the breakfast. We were warmly welcomed, and looked after. I would not hesitate to return, especially with so many great hiking trails.

Excellent location so much to do. The views were breath taking. People are friendly and welcoming. Excellent facilities. Security was excellent. No medical facilities near by almost stepped on a puff adder while walking on a path. More information on emergencies for snake bites required. Will definitely visit soon. Overall an excellent and magical destination.

The Whistling Goat is an absolute gem.

The Whistling Goat is an absolute gem. The owners are hands on and very friendly. We ate breakfast there twice and both times the food and the service was outstanding. We also ate a meal at SPEIRS. This was a wonderful experience and I highly recommend a visit. Other places where we ate were The Lemon Tree Bistro, The Olde Duck, Moorcroft Manor and The Grind. I do not recommend that you eat at The Grind if you enjoy good food. The service there was awful and the food was not good at all. A trip up Sani Pass is an absolute must!! DON'T FORGET YOUR PASSPORT!! We, sadly did not have our passports with us. So, I guess we're going to have to go back for this adventure. Unless you have a 4 x 4 vehicle I most definitely do not recommend that you take the sand/gravel road to Nottingham Road. It is definitely NOT a normal vehicle friendly road.

Electricity cut of many times during our stay due to the switch tripping. Drain clogged in shower. Carpets not vacuumed but only swept with a broom, which was evident in our continuous sneezing upon entering the room. Geyser switch tripped on checkout day and therefore we could not shower in our room. Rooms need to be better maintained and cleaned.

There are several resorts and a number of smaller accommodations in this picturesque valley, a hotspot for nature lovers and hiking enthusiasts. It is close to the famous Sani Pass, where 4X4 enthusiasts can ascend one of the highest and most scenic trails in Southern Africa. The town has charming shops and eateries, and many of the resorts offer a host of activities, restaurants and outdoor adventure options.

The various accommodation options make it perfect for couples and families. Huge grounds allow you to get away for some peace and quiet if you want, but we did not feel overwhelmed by people and the place was full. You can either go and feed carrots to the horses or take a short drive to one of the many attractions in the area.
