Charming guesthouse. My room had everything I needed, was clean and very comfortable. Management is outstanding. Kalooa is very welcoming and goes beyond the call of duty. Really appreciated her flexibility and attentiveness. Would highly recommend Oaktree and will stay there again myself when next in that area.

I came from Italy and our partner booked this site for me. It was very nice, set into the green without any noise. I had also the opportunity to have a couple of dinners there: service and quality very good. You should go there!

I have stayed many times at Oaktree Guesthouse. The ambiance is excellent and one always feels welcome in this quiet, secluded area. The little touches are what makes this B&B special. Parking is secure and one is not far from the many attractions offered in Sandton. A small criticism is that the breakfast lacks imagination.

Coming from the Kruger National park after 8 days in absolute serenity, we needed to overnight in Johannesburg on our way to Bloemfontein. Well what an amazing find in the heart of the concrete jungle. This guest house and its owner and staff totally blew us away. The room was luxurious, the breakfast yummy and the overall experience was just what we needed.

My husband and i stayed in March for 2 nights, and at check in i felt it wasn't going to be enough time to enjoy this little piece of heaven and i was right. it was a well thought out room, with every possible convenient amenity. breakfast is already in the fridge when you arrive, yoghurt, fruit, milk, cheese, bread and three cereals, all included in the amazingly reasonable price. the room has a very spacious bathroom, only downside was a lack of tub but the shower was great. we will be planning another trip soon, to visit Oaktree guest house. Christine and Dagmar are also amazing.

I stayed at this amazing lodge in August and I had a good time. Staff and the owners are welcoming and there at your service. They endeavour to make your stay as comfortable as possible in a private environment. I enjoyed watching different kinds of birds in the morning. I recommend this lodge for its location, security and welcoming atmosphere.Everyone connected tithe lodge is welcoming. I can't wait to be back.

Staying at Oaktree was wonderful. We stayed for 2 months while working in Johannesburg. Christine and Dagmar (the owners) treated us like family. When we arrived, it was our first time in the country and they drove us around to run errands and become acquainted with the area. They helped us to secure transportation and constantly gave us recommendations of things to do, places to go and safety tips. I definitely recommend this accommodation!!

My husband and I are moving to Johannesburg and needed a somewhat long-term stay while we look at houses to rent. Our unit had a bedroom, sitting room and a small kitchen. Perfect for take-a-way at Spars! I was lovely to be able to come back "home" for a quick dip in a refreshing pool. Since we were new to South Africa, the two owners, Dagmar and Christine were ever so accommodating and helpful. I highly recommend the Oaktree for anyone who needs a home away from home in the northern suburbs of Johannesburg.

Two friends and I were traveling to South Africa as student teachers for two months and had essentially no connections to anyone here prior the really getting involved at the school. The owners of the guest house were unbelievably hospitable and welcoming, never hesitating to offer their assistance and advice when we needed it. They even helped us to set up transportation prior to our arrival since we did not have a car yet! These women are seriously some of the most accommodating business owners I have ever met, so if you want to feel at home and very comfortable, this is the place for you. The property itself is beautiful, full of lush foliage and singing birds. We also felt very safe during our stay as each apartment has its own key, and the guest house has a private gate while being located within a secure community. Rooms were cleaned daily and always to a high standard. I cannot say enough positives about this place!…
