The overall experience was amazing, the place is gorgeous, the staff was great especially Boitumelo and the cleaners. The only issue is the place not having allevators, we had to carry heavy luggage up and down

At first me and my partner were skeptical about spending the whole weekend at Road Lodge but all those doubts were erased as soon as we checked in. The service was awesome and the peace that came with it was proper, the only disadvantage was that the rooms don't come with a fridge which proved to be a problem.
