    Enchanting and surreal. Unique ecosystem and florilegium in the Southern Cape will leave you breathless and at peace with nature. #fynbos #walkerbay #grootbos #gaansbaai

    Absolutely top class accommodation and service. Cannot recommend it highly enough. If you want to be treated like royalty in the middle of the most beautiful setting, this is the place to visit. Second time here and will definitely be back.

    We just checked out of the Garden Lodge and would love to just turn around and go back. It was just incredible! Starting from the warm welcome we received when we arrived to the continuous exceeding of our expectations with regards to staff friendliness and professionalism, to the actual suite, and the activities that we were offered. Our guide was Byron and if you think you know anything about nature and how eco systems work, think again because his knowledge was impressive and his enthusiasm was contagious. The activities are complimentary and I highly recommend them. We explored parts of the 3'000 hq reserve in a safari vehicle, on horseback, and on foot and each one was different and very interesting. The peace and quiet is just a bliss and your privacy is guaranteed. However, if you do need anything, the staff will always be there for you with a big smile! I could go on and on about how amazing this place is, but I'll keep it short and just leave it up to you to see for yourself how pure luxury can be so intertwined with sustainibility and ecological preservation. To the Grootbos family, you were incredible and my wife and I applaud you all!

    I was greeted very nicely by Dickson upon arrival. He was very professional and helped me to look around seeing I am not from around here and only seen the sign passing through. But as soon as he left I was treated like I shouldn't be there by the lady in the corner and felt so uncomfortable that I ended up leaving. I do not reccomend coming here.
