Mountain Aloe Den

We had a very enjoyable stay at Mountain Aloe Den. If you’re looking for a real African experience at an affordable rate. The rooms are neat and the view spectacular.

Don’t expect cell reception af the property, phones keep switching to roaming to Swaziland because it so close to the border.

High up in the Mountain- this was truly a great experience for me and my siblings!! As cold as it was in the evening, grateful that all the rooms had heaters in them, enough blankets, a whole lot of warmth and comfort!! I also loved that our phones did not have signal// for me that is a formula to a real retreat and escape from the busy life and city. Ohhh and the outdoor showers 🙌🏽🤩🤩🤩breathtaking.

Nothing at all- everything was perfect!!

The location is so beautiful and peaceful. When you come from Barberton you pass several natural reserves, which are absolutely stunning. You drive about 30 mins to 1 hour from Barberton (depending on the weather) on a road that is well maintained. You don’t need a 4x4 to reach the destination. Great location if you are traveling to or from Swaziland as it close from the border. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. We had a kitchen at our disposal and had to bring our own food (it was low season and we booked last minute). The room was well decorated, clean and had everything we needed.

The location and view

The bed had a dip in the middle, the food was cold and very basic
