- From US$1,348.94 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.1Superb - What previous guests thought, 668 reviewsOur villa was breathtaking, lunch was great, our dedicated game rangers were attentive and well informed and the facilities and reserve overall are wonderful. We wish we could have stayed for more than a night and day (ie we booked lunch, evening game drive, dinner, breakfast, morning game drive). Then we could truly have enjoyed the restful atmosphere and surrounds of the villa. Our children (12 and 8) had never been on a game drive before and loved it. We saw so many animals, including elephant, only missed the lions and leopard. Lovely experience.Guest review byAntoinetteNew Zealand
- Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.3Superb - What previous guests thought, 1,255 reviewsAmazing place where you can rest, see animals in their natural habitat and eat great food. From the moment you pass through the gate everything is organised for you. The staff are so welcoming and attentive. The game drivers are so knowledgeable and engaging. We should have stayed more than two night’s! Our son , who is 9 years of age happily got up at 6 AM to go on a game drive . We all loved it. One of the most memorable experiences we had as a family!Guest review bySrebrinaSwitzerland
- From US$106.65 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 9.3Superb - What previous guests thought, 301 reviewsWakening up to the sound of birds, cannot be measured. Then the calmness this place brings to you was exactly what we needed. We had our little encounter with a spider, which was easy to catch and to release. Don't miss the stargazing as it is a view you won't forget. The BBQ on the top of the trees from the DIY was a beautiful experience.Guest review byLaurentLuxembourg

Mossel Bay itself has so much to see and do and then you have all the little treasures on the outskirts of Mossel Bay. One that we found this weekend after visiting Mossel Bay for the last 15 years is the Butterfly Sanctuary on the R328 in Ruitersbos. Visit in summer to see the butterflies as in winter their numbers are far less. A must at the sanctuary is to meet Earle Whitely a world renowned butterfly expert.Guest review byKennethSouth Africa - 10.0
We all loved George.
We all loved George. It is so close to so many attractions and beautiful areas. It is a good base to be at to do day trips. George is so clean, and no potholes. We wished that we had more time to look around. We had a fantastic meal at Cula restaurant.Guest review byRoslynAustralia - 10.0

A small village on the east coast between George and Knysna. People are friendly and services adequate for basic needs.

This quaint little town has so much to offer. The access to the forests with its fantastic hikes, loads of other activities and a couple of great restaurants.

Albertinia is a small country town without the big fast food take aways . Very rural . You can buy the basics at one of the cafes or Pizza place . There is not much as far as shops go so it is a stopover to break a long journey or a week or two of total peace and quite without too many modern day interruptions. There is a braai area and all you could want to have to have an enjoyable stop and a good night's sleep and no rush to get you out in the morning .. I simply bought rolls and cold meat and yogurt at Piet se kafee as I did not want to cook . Coffee is provided although if to a heavy coffee drinker you may want to buy a bit extra as most guest houses only give you enough for two or three cups of coffee . I had a nice chat with the owner who told me about the abundance of underground water and about the area in general...This is not a property where you can come in and drink and party and be a nuisance to others . . No smoking inside the chalets which is excellent @Guest review byMike du PlessisSouth Africa - 8.0
