We spent 4 days in the JBay Zebra Lodge. It is a really great lodge with a very large property, the view is also beautiful. We had the luxury suite "Earth", which was very tastefully decorated. The bathroom also looks really great and is a good size. The terrace offers enough privacy to enjoy the view. The special thing about this property is of course the zebras that live on the property. We think it's good that these animals have enough space to retreat thanks to the very large property. You can see the zebras near the suites or the main house, but then they disappear for a few hours. The animals are doing really well here, and we found living together with the guests very nice. But we would like to make some suggestions for improvement: - The pool is small, but nicely laid out. There are only four loungers for guests on the pool terrace. We think that's not enough, because on our first day we wanted to enjoy the pool, but the few loungers were already taken. We would recommend at least two more loungers, e.g. on the lawn, so that guests can enjoy the pool when the weather is nice. - The breakfast is beautifully presented at each table, but 2 slices of salami and two half slices of ham and 2 strips of cheese are very little for two guests. Of course you can order more, but it takes a while until you get another 4 slices of salami. We would also have been happy with real rolls or slices of bread, because these mini rolls didn't taste very good. - The evening menu on offer was "OK", but the taste could still be improved. There was only a 3-course menu to book with no options at all. We didn't experience this in other accommodations, where you could choose between fish, meat or vegetarian at breakfast for the evening, at least for the main course. We therefore preferred to eat in a restaurant in Jeffreys Bay in the evening. These are just suggestions, we were overall satisfied with our stay and would happily recommend the JBay Country Lodge because we really liked the idea of having zebras on the property.
