As a Mom of three, we always need to take into consideration, if this would be a "child friendly choice?" Never in my life, did I think this experience would be THIS remarkable!!! Friendly staff, super neat, clean, proffesional and unbelievably rememberable!! Surrounded by views, for days .... we have had more than just "a pleasant stay!!" I will save these memories in my heart, forever! Thank you Alida,... Read More

Alida en Wayne het ons absoluut weggeblaas met hul enorme gasvryheid! Nie net was die kos uit die boonste rakke gewees nie, maar die verblyf was smaakvol en gemaklik. Geen moeite is gespaar nie. Die wildrit was fantasties, met versnaperinge en drinkgoed langs die pad. Ons sal beslis weer hier 'n draai kom maak met ons hele gesin! Baie dankie Alida en Wayne vir 'n huweliksherdenking wat ons beslis... Read More

Various animals roaming around, including giraffes and lots of buck. We had a lovely dinner as well a breakfast, prepared by a young chef and presented by a lovely lady. She also took us on a wild drive... Read More

Amazing place, hosted by a family who could not have been more helpful. Effectively a bespoke visit for us, flexible and understanding, had time for lots of questions from our children! Food brilliant and plentiful as was the wine and beer. Great company and time. Could not recommend more highly - a must stay.

We loved our stay at Hartenbos Game Lodge. Beautiful setting, very relaxing. We loved the outdoor experience and enjoyed our hike and bicycle ride. The highlight for all of us was the quad bike game drive. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Well situated to visit Mossel Bay for a day trip.

We didn’t really know what to expect when we took a 30 minute drive on a dirt track to the Lodge’s entrance. But it was worth it.We had the whole resort to ourselves and were really made to feel like part of the family.If you do go, make sure you take a drive with Wayne around the Lodge. He was great company, really loved the animals and was utterly... Read More

Beautiful place with super gracious hosts in Wayne and Alida. Wayne is truly fantastic in his knowledge of the game reserve and the various animals here at the lodge. Wayne and Alida went out of their way to accommodate our extremely different food tastes (being Indian and all) and pulled off perhaps the best culinary experience of our entire tour here in South Africa! Truly recommend everyone to definitely... Read More
