Allez y les yeux fermés !
Je dois manger sans gluten, c'est le seul et unique endroit où le chef cuisinier à eu plein d'intentions pour que je puisse profiter pleinement de mon séjour. Petit muffin sans gluten au petit déjeuner, idem pour les repas du soir, entrée plat dessert sans gluten. Je le remercie vivement pour cela. Accueil chaleureux. Rien à redire, endroit au calme exceptionnel, personnel discret et gentil. Bravo à tous

Excellent Property
What a stunning property, and amazing couple who own and run it. We loved our stay and cannot wait to visit once again - 2 nights was just too short. On a side note - the beds were like sleeping on a cloud.

This is a winner
I loved my stay at Lily Pond. Beautiful grounds and pond. Incredible bird life, singing frogs and absolutely no traffic noise to disturb the peace and tranquility. My accommodation was well appointed, comfortable, spacious and modern - I loved it. Niels and Margaret (owners/managers) were attentive, gracious and genuinely friendly hosts. I chose to have dinners at Lily Pond too - they were mouth-wateringly delicious! This place is a winner and I will be back very soon.

In reaction on this review I would like to say that we at Lily Pond are very upset about this review that is absolutely not in line with other reviews we received. We always appreciate feedback and even if it is not positive we can learn from it, but we do find that the senders "Anonymous" name and heading "Spammers" are very suspicious and even the text has nothing to do with any guest experience. We also do not have any information about the sender's stay at Lily Pond. We have requested Expedia to remove it, but unfortunately the answers was that it is still within the guide lines, so unfortunately we have to except and respect this. Niels Hendriks (owner)

Super Architektur, fantastischer Garten mit großem Teich und Pool, die Zimmer sind sehr geschmackvoll und mit liebevollen Details ausgestattet, die Besitzerin ist sehr freundlich und hat eine angenehme Art zu kommunizieren, Frühstück und Dinner sind superb ( das Beste auf unserer gesamten Reise) Rundum perfekt.

Lieber Anonymer..., Vielen Dank für Ihre großartige Kritik und die schönen Worte, um Lily Pond zu beschreiben. Ich werde Ihren Kommentar zum Abendessen an unser Küchenteam weiterleiten, das sehr stolz darauf sein wird, dass dies Ihre beste Mahlzeit während Ihres Urlaubs war. Wir hoffen sehr, dass Sie SA wieder besuchen können und in Lily Pond einen Zwischenstopp einlegen, wenn Sie in der Gegend sind. Herzliche Grüße Margret (Besitzer)

Die Lodge ist sehr schön, vor allem der Blick vom Zimmer auf den Lilienteich ist fantastisch. Die Lodge wird von einem sehr kommunikativen, freundlichen und diskussionsfreudigem holländischen Päarchen geführt. Beide sind um ihre Gäste sehr bemüht und hilfsbereit. Zum dinner hat man abends die Wahl zwischen einem vegetarischen Menü oder Fleisch/Fischmenü (3 Gänge). Das dinner ist sehr gut organisiert und lecker. Von der Lodge sind es ca. 6 km bis zum Strand von Nature Valley.

Lieber anonymer, Vielen Dank für Ihre netten und freundlichen Worte. Wir sind viel gereist und haben während unserer Reisen gemerkt, dass uns lokale Informationen besser gefielen als in den Guides erwähnt. Wir werden unsere Küche darüber informieren, dass Ihnen unser Abendessen gefallen hat. Wir freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen bei Lily Pond. Herzliche Grüße Niels & Margret (Besitzer)

My wife and I found the staff and our hosts to be very welcoming and extremely helpful. It was a real pleasure to stay at the Lily Pond Country Lodge. The Baboons wandering around the extremities of the grounds took us by surprise at first but on being assured that they were safe we enjoyed the experience. The rooms were large, high quality and very comfortable although the open plan nature of the bedroom and bathroom was not what we would have chosen..

It is not difficult to see why Lily Pond gets consistently good reviews. Such consistent reviews don’t just happen - they are testament to the professionalism and efforts of the owners, Niels and Margaret. Refreshing to see such hands on owners who have also trained their staff to their own high standards. Everything runs smoothly and apparently effortlessly but that only comes with excellent ownership/management. Spotlessly clean, very stylish with great attention to detail, excellent food and staff - could have taken Faith home with me for her smile and personality. Niels and Margaret you deserve your success - thank you. To anyone reading this I can highly recommend Lily Pond and would definitely stay again if in the area. Car wash was a nice extra touch!!

Dear Anonymous, Thank you so much for your friendly words.It makes us very proud and will show our staff your review too. We simply do our best, but it is the staff that supports us very well and are the backbone of Lily Pond. Having guests that enjoy what we made in all those years motivates us a lot. Thanks again and look forward having you back at Lily Pond. Kindest regards, Margret & Niels (owner)

Well worth a visit.
Amazing relaxing place to stay. Attentive staff and food was absolutely fantastic. Our suite was lovely but be wary of the ordinary garden rooms as the toilet has no door or privacy. May not concern you but our friends who stayed in one found it very disconcerting.

Not to be missed! This place is heaven on earth!!
This is by far THE BEST PLACE we've been to in SA and in general. The level of service is so high you won't believe it. The room is beautiful with gorgeous view to the pond. It was top clean with premium bedding. The in house restaurant is amazing. Food was delicious and service was perfect. The owners spend time with each guest every day asking them how was their day and what are their plans for the next days. Breakfast at tge garden was also delicious and made for order. Our car has been washed every day! To sum up: GO THERE! Great value for money and you'll have the best stay for sure! We spent 2 nights there and we were very sad to leave.
