    Van Bo fishing resort is clean, there is no loud music and a person feels safe there. It is a beautiful place with a pool mini put-put jungle gyms for the kids and a pool table. If you don't want to cook or braai you can order food from the owner. If you don't have cutlery or bedding you can hire from the owner. There are caves that the owner takes you to and tells you all about the caves. It's really a nice place to visit.

    By far the absolute best fishing resort and totally affordable. So many fun activities for the whole family to enjoy. Friendly & kind staff and absolutely great service! Ablution facilities are always clean. Will definitely recommend this resort to everyone for an amazing getaway that doesn't break the bank.

    Got here Friday afternoon and left Saterday afternoon. The chalets wasn't clean and is very small. Putt putt and swimming pool not really maintained. Im very disappointed . We didnt catch any fish and got stuck a whole bunch of times. No one informed us to bring own cutlery, bedding, crockery. No sink inside the chalets and bathrooms not very clean. I wont recommend this place to any one.

    We came here for sister inlaws birthday and met the owner that gave us a very special tour of our history. We are staying for a howl week but this first 2 days has been a blast we caught a few fish and had n few good runs that got away but part of it. This resort is clean to the final spec of grass and the best to get away from technology. The lady's need not worry the bathrooms is clean and ever ready for use. Thanx 2 the owners and staff of Van Bo. Im loving it here

  • 1/5 Sanet Van der W. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 26 reviews
    Scamped sardiens in a can... Fishing space are way to small. Wendy' Are not what we expected. This is more a tool shack than a place to overnight. For the money we paid, we did not get the value. A water point closer, a kettle and a microwave might help. Thanx but a big no thank you. Sorry to say.

  • 3/5 Ethan R. 4 years ago on Google β€’ 7 reviews
    Lots of fun activities to take part in, abundant animals life and beautiful scenery. There is however a huge problem with space as I found myself constantly rubbing elbows with my neighbors while fishing.

    Just if you want to clear the body of stes this is the place to recharge. Down to earth and in nature. Not high society

    Your driver drives like trash. Probably not the best when your vehicle has your brand on it.

  • 1/5 Natacha T. 1 year ago on Google
    Worst experience, and not worth the entry fee. Phoned and was told space available. On arrival the space allocated was taken, and had to try squeeze in to find alternative spot. After 15mins left due to space. Would not refund money paid.. Will not recommend, no idea how they got 2 start eating from tourism board.

  • 1/5 Shahista H. 3 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Elizabeth F. 4 years ago on Google
    It is a place to go and relax. But not really a place for fishermen. There is to much areas in the water where your hooks get caught. The staff are friendly and it is always clean and tidy. But if it is just a get away from home for short while the open air. It is a place to relax

  • 1/5 Johan C. 6 months ago on Google β€’ 1 review
    Worst experience. Do not recommend for day visitors fishing. Phoned ahead of time to confirm space, and paid R150 per person, just to be told halfway through the day that we have to leave due to other people also paying for the same spot. They refused to refund any money.
