Great place with a wonderful host

4.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 4 weeks ago
Great place which is clean and so relaxing amongst the sound of the river and birds in abundance. Mike is a wonderful host, friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful stay. It had all the amenities we needed for our stay. They could perhaps modernise the bathroom in the future.

River Tides is set in the most beautiful location.
A self catering venue with a well equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings and good linen. It has a spacious bathroom and good water pressure. The cleanliness of the accommodation was outstanding. There are dining tables inside and on the veranda. One would have to look a long way to find a better place to watch the sunset from your veranda. We really recommend this self catering, value for money venue.

What a very special little place on the river with outstanding views and picturesque sunsets. The owner Mike is wonderful and made us feel very comfortable and at home from the minute we arrived. He is very knowledgeable of the area and can offer good advice on what to see and which restaurants to visit. The rooms are wonderfully laid out and have absolutely everything that you may need during your stay. There are also canoes available should you wish to go out and try your hand at rowing. We found sitting on the patio, enjoying a good South African braai and watching the incredible bird life more than we could have asked for and will definitely be returning to our favourite little spot in Veldrift soon.

Room tip: River facing rooms absolutely incredible.

Our host Mike was extremely hospitable and welcoming from the moment we arrived.
The rooms were spotless and Air-conditioned overlooking the jetty and the river.
We enjoyed use of the canoes and rowing boats to go out and see the magnificent bird life.
The sunsets were stunning as we had sundowners and a braai on the patio.
It was such a peaceful and relaxing break.
Thank you.
We will definitely return.
