Detailed Reviews
Yellowwoods came recommended as we attended a High School reunion over the weekend. The entire place and our room was absolutely spotless, beds very comfortable, We were made to feel welcome and nothing was to much trouble. Truly remarkable compared to numerous places we have stayed across the country. Can only highly recommend this as the only accommodation preference when visiting Empangeni.

This is the only place to stay when you are in Empangeni. You always feel welcome when you arrive and relax the moment you walk into this beautiful garden and tranquil space. The meals were absolutely delicious and prepared with care. The rooms are very comfortable, clean and spacious.

You feel at home the moment you walk into Yellowwood guesthouse. Home away from home. The hosts go out of their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The breakfast is the best that I have experienced in a SA guesthouse.
The rooms are well equipped with nice size TV, Aircon, wi-fi and roof fans.
Juice and water is provided daily.
The interior decoration is stylish but still homey.
The rates are affordable and provide value for money.
Highly recommended.

I loved staying at Yellowwoods, and when I need to return to Empangeni, I will certainly stay with them again. The owners and management are so welcoming and make you feel at home. The rooms are very good quality, and the cleanest I have seen. Great job Tannie Amanda and JayJay!

Thankyou Amanda, once again a perfect stay and great breakfast. Those mushrooms.
Although Amanda's breakfasts are mostly standard there is always that little bit which makes it not-boring, unlike most other Guesthouses.
The room was impeccable with fresh milk, rusks, water and a juice.
TV is excellent (the picture, not the content. That's mostly rubbish).
I'll be back! Hast a la vista baby. 😂

My stay at Yellowwoods was absolutely amazing! Amanda is the perfect hostess and goes out of her way to make guests feel at home. My room was big, beautifully decorated and a pleasure to come to after a long day! This is the only guest house that I have stayed in over the past five years (and there has been many) that only uses Woolworths bath products. (Divine!!) I had absolutely free access to the kitchen and felt so at home, I wished I could have stayed longer. Now this is how a guest house should make one feel. This will definitely be my place "to go to" in Empangeni in the future.

Yellowwoods is a hidden gem, crisp white linen and very clean. I felt like i was in a Southern Sun Hotel. Beautifully decorated rooms and breakfast area. Very comfortable for anyone and everyone and the cherry on top is a very hospitable host!

Very upmarket bed and breakfast. Secure with secure parking (even came down after breakfast and my Land Rover had been washed!). Hands on by the owners who are excellent hosts and really make the place have a home from home feel to it. Highly recommended.
