The grounds and pool at this property were lovely. The rooms were adequate- I prefer the ones with small balcony. Load shedding wasn’t really a problem - we had a/c at night and we were gone in daytime touring. The formal dining room had fabulous food and wines and we ate there every night they were open. The pm prior to leaving for our safari we ate on the patio informal and that was a huge mistake! I got fish poisoning from smoked snook. We had to leave for the airport at 0330 and there was no one in management to talk to so we left for our 2 weeks of safari. The first 3 days of mine were ruined due to being so ill. At one point the abdominal pain was so bad we considered the hospital. I was absolutely debilitated. When we returned to the hotel after our safari time for another 3 days prior to leaving Capetown, I explained what had happened - no remedy was offered- just took down the info for the chef! Very irritating and made me reduce my rating of this hotel as a result. Bfast buffet was wonders but service very bad - had to beg for coffee/ tea and refills.
