Eine ganz tolle, sehr gepflegte und geschmackvoll eingerichtete Boutique-Lodge im Villenviertel die keine Wünsche offen lässt. Das extrem zuvorkommende, flexible und engagierte Personal Schenkt einem jeden Tag ein Lächeln und unterstützt bei der Erfüllung sämtlicher Bedürfnisse und Wünsche. Der traumhafte Garten wird gepflegt und Swimmingpool lädt ein zum Sport machen oder nur verweilen. Das servierte Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche offen, das gefüllte Omelette ein Traum. Wir kommen gerne wieder !

Zuvorkommendes Personal. Hervorragender Service. Das Frühstück lässt keine Wünsche offen. Super Lage. Sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll. Wir durften 17 Tage und Nächte im wunderbaren Ambiente der SW1 Lodge verbringen. Schon beim ersten Augenblick der Begrüssung, fühlte es sich an, als gehöre man zu dieser kleinen Familie. Jeder Mitarbeitende wurde uns persönlich vorgestellt. Unser Zimmer "Thandi" war sehr gross und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Nach einem Ausflug oder einer Runde Golf konnten wir im wunderschönen Garten am Pool die Seele baumeln lassen. Das Frühstück liess keine Wünsche offen und wurde immer frisch zubereitet. Ein ganz grosses Dankeschön geht an Tonde und Kaesha. Beide waren so herzlich und zuvorkommend. Sie haben uns jeden Wunsch von den Augen abgelesen und einen wesentlichen Teil dazu beigetragen, dass unser Aufenthalt unvergesslich bleibt. Wir können die SW1 Lodge nur empfehlen und werden wiederkommen.

Katherine und Moritz sind sehr nette und zuvorkommende Gastgeber. Wir haben uns gut betreut gefühlt. Gewohnt haben wir in der TsalaTsala Suite, die einen schönen Blick vom Balkon über das Meer im Hintergrund bietet. Ausgezeichnetes Frühstück, bei dem kein Wunsch offen bleibt. Gute Lage, als Ausgangspunkt nach Somerset, Stellenbosch, Hermanus und Kapstadt gut geeignet. Wir kommen in jedem Fall wieder!
