We visited Summerfields on Woman's day and had a great time. Thanks to Janine and all the other staff, this was definitely the best spa treatment we have had in a long time.
Everything was just so perfect, i went back for another treatment 2 days later. Everything is of high standard and we would definitely recommend Summerfields to anyone. We'll be back!

We visited Summerfields to celebrate our wedding anniversary. In every which way, we received royal treatment. The luxury of seclusion of only 12 rooms (tents!); the art and fusion of farm produce grown on the premises turned into a culinary delight on your plate; the spa located in the arms of Mother Nature with therapists working their pixy dust into our overworked Gauteng muscles. Big thank you to Sean and his team for making our stay so memorable. Elbe was an absolute super star who arranged the postponement of our booking when my husband took ill. We can't wait to go back to experience some more Summerfields magic.

The most uncomfortable place in terms of atmosphere I have stayed - out of 4 dozen or more different hotels/guest houses/lodges all over South Africa in recent years. The staff seem terrified if they deviate from the ludicrous over-the-top rules for guests while under the eagle eye of the management. An absolute horror of a stay. Perfect for Trump voters.

Dear Madam

Sadly, your crude and negative review misses the mark entirely. We proudly employ 80 members from our surrounding communities, most of whom feed at least 7 family members. In a country with huge unemployment problems which lead to terrible social issues, tourism plays an important role in providing much-needed jobs. Sure, some of them never rise beyond menial tasks, but the majority excel and take pride in serving guests, making rooms, tending gardens, and even carrying bags.

We train our staff in a world acclaimed hospitality programme (LobsterInk.com), which dictates certain standards and rules for luxury establishments, and of course, management is there to guide staff and ensure compliance.

We are grateful to be part of a new non-racial society, to play a meaningful role in the local economy, and to offer a worldclass product and service, as 99% of our guests attest to.
