Detailed Reviews
This was our 2nd stay at Aan de Vliet. This time we stayed in a River Cottage as opposed to a Garden Unit. All the units (Rondavels) are the same inside and out apart from the location. The only difference are the Stream Chalets that we did not like as they had very little character and not very nice views. These are more expensive due to having WiFi access and a TV in the room! We have a fantastic stay again. The units are cleaned meticulously daily, are maintained very well and have Air Con plus a large ceiling fan. The pool area is large and inviting. For those without a TV in their Units…there is a large one in the Reception area with lovely comfy sofas and chairs. WiFi can be obtained in the Reception area too. We were self catering or ate out (big shout out to the Tanks Bush Pub just down the road that served good food and drinks). We drove some of the Panorama Route from there, visited Pilgrims Rest , Graskop and did a days self drive Safari in Kruger (Phabeni Gate is about 30 mins drive away). All the staff are friendly and helpful. We had actually booked and paid a 50% deposit in late 2019. When COVID struck, they kindly kept our deposit on ‘hold’ and allowed us to use it this year. We do not hesitate in recommending this lovely resort.

Dear Tersa Thank you for your review, i will share your feedback with my team. We are planning some upgrades on the other chalets with the hope of adding WIFI and TV's in some of them. We loved having you here after all the COVID ups and downs. I cannot wait to welcome you back to Aan de Vliet again. Kind regards Estelle Viljoen General Manager

What a wonderful gem! Small enough that I could feel comfortable letting a 10 year old go to the games room by himself, big enough that they have amenities for the family. They have playgrounds that are age related so the little ones don’t get caught up with the big kids, a beautiful pool and games room. Beautiful view of the river. The river sounds at night was so peaceful.

Had a lovely time in beautiful surroundings. Stayed in a River Chalet which are right on the banks of a river where you heard the river in the background the whole time and looked onto a lovely natural bush. It looks like the resort gardens were recently upgraded and are lovely and well-maintained. The resort has a generator which is great as you are never affected by load-shedding. The fact that there was not a TV in the chalet was not a problem at all as you only wanted to sit outside to enjoy the lovely scenery. The location of the resort is perfect for day trips to the Kruger Park (20 mins to Phabeni Gate) and all the other beautiful surrounding towns, waterfalls, hikes etc. The resort is very affordable and I will definitely go again.

We occupied three Garden Rondavels. The units were very clean and well-maintained. It was cleaned on a daily basis which made us feel spoiled. It would have been nice to have an oven in the unit as cooking is very limited without an oven (Or maybe guests should be made aware of this, so they can bring an air fryer or something. Maybe a bit more utensils like a masher.
The pool was well-maintained although some of the other guests on the property were not reprimanded for drinking alcohol at the pool. We had to leave because the guests were drunk and bothered the children.
Apart from these hiccups, I would highly recommend this resort

Dear Annalie Thank you for your feedback, I will share your feedback with my team. I do apologize on behalf of the guests for their inhumane behavior and for the fact that they made your experience at our pool unpleasant. I will give your suggestion to the Directors to discuss for options in the future. We look forward to welcoming you back to Aan de Vliet in the near future.

We loved staying at Aan de Vliet. The unit had all we needed. There were excellently maintained jungle gyms, sandpit and trampolines which my daughter spent ages on. The gardens are beautifully kept and we enjoyed walking around with our little one exploring. It's right by the river, what a lovely view! The staff are friendly and helpful. The resort is also close to town so going out for a meal was easy. Our only complaint is out of the resort's control, that being a group of noisy guests arriving one evening. I'm sure if we asked a staff member to address this, they would have.
This was the perfect getaway for our little family.

We were there with our family for 2 days. Beautiful location on the river. Perfect if you want to explore the panorama route! Staff is extremely helpful. After we had left they called us to say we had left our iPad in the room. As we could not return to collect it they were so kind to ship it to a location we would visit the next week so we could collect it there. Amazing service!!

The place is perfect for family vacations or if you want to disappear a bit from the city. You will experience so much tranquility. I Just wished the resort had coffee tray amenities and a restaurant, you will have to drive to other resorts to buy yourself food and drinks.

Staff was incredibly friendly and helpful!
Bike friendly: We arrived at the resort, drenched and tired, and was warmly received by staff on duty.
One can see the care that is taken to keep the resort well maintained to ensure a pleasurable experience. I recommend the river bungalows.

Nice and atmospheric cottages. Just a pity that there were no opportunities to dine on the property itself. For that we depended on delivery or restaurants in the vicinity.
Please note when booking excursions. We booked a safari in Kruger with the staff. We already assumed that we would have to pay some extra, but we did not pay attention and afterwards it turned out that we paid more than 50% above the 'general' standard rate. The same goes for doing laundry. You pay per item and when I noticed that this was quite a lot of money in the end (equivalent to €40 for two loads of laundry), I still got a discount. In our four weeks in South Africa (with three children) this turned out to be by far the most expensive way to do laundry.
As far as I am concerned, these two experiences have influenced the overall review of this place. If we had not used these two additional 'services', my review would have been higher

The Hotel and grounds are beside the Sabie River. Where the rooms are closest to the river and around much of the rest of the property one is protected from wildlife by electric fences. Entry to the site is through a security gate which has independent exit via a keypad but monitored entry from the reception desk. 38 of the rooms are Rondavols and the remainder are more conventional.
As a resort for peace and quiet it excels. For those requiring entertainment to be laid on then this has its limitations.
