Detailed Reviews
We stayed at 2 on Lismore for the weekend as we were celebrating my son's birthday. We had 18 family members staying there and had an additional 25 people join us on the Saturday evening for a braai. The facilities were excellent and lent themselves to the occasion brilliantly. There is such a fantastic entertainment area with I door braais (gas and charcoal) and a stunning bar. Not to mention the gorgeous kitchen and beautifully spacious lounge area. The outdoor area is also lovely to use when the weather is good. And the rooms.... wow. So so incredible. Beautifully decorated, elegant and modern. Sarnia and her team were so helpful and friendly, nothing was too big to ask. They went above and beyond to make sure we had good stay and that our dinner events went off beautifully. They even set a huge table for us with all the cutlery, crockery, glass and cloth serviettes - giving the event such a classy feel. They are also well prepared for loadshedding with a gas stove and excellent very bright torches .. so even laodshedding did not effect us. Thank you Sarnia and team. We will definitely be back.

We stayed here as a big group over New Year.
Emmie and her team are excellent and very helpful.
The rooms and cottages are clean and comfortable however a few things didn’t work well in terms of lights and cooking facilities. We did manage ok but disappointing that the maintenance wasn’t as good as we would have expected. The kitchens would have benefited from more utensils especially in the cottages as they have full kitchens.
Also there isn’t any air con which made the bedrooms uncomfortable to sleep in on hot evenings. Fans were provided on request.
Overall we would go back as the accommodation is good.

We stayed a week at 2 On Lismore Guesthouse and were very pleased. The service was great and Talisa fulfilled every wish, always with a smile on her face. Our room, a Deluxe Suite, was very nice and modern. Overall it was a great stay. We really enjoyed it.

Pictures of exterior house were that of No4. Very modern house. That’s what we thought we had booked. On arrival we were told that the modern house was full & we were next door 2 on Lismore. Quite a different set up there as smaller pool (could see no loungers) kids play area, dated & no air conditioning although we had booked this they had none installed in our unit.
Had to check out - felt it was misrepresented. Be very careful what you think you are booking!

We stayed at 2onLismore for one night only, what a shame!! We would have like to stay another night or two! The Protea room was outstanding, and the staff was first class: Helpful and friendly. The overall feeling of the establishment was one of luxury and peace. We loved it!
