The lodge we stayed in as a family was large, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We most loved the facilities for the children: the pool, the football pitch and the play area. The location was amazing- so peaceful and safe. The staff were fantastic and friendly. We had a lovely stay.
There wasn’t any air con in our lodge, just a fan, so it was quite warm

A beautiful setting, with well-kept gardens. Room was comfortable, good Wifi and kind staff. Our vehicle even got a nice- wipe-down after the rain. The location was convenient to get to Kirstenbosch with an Uber and it's easy to get food delivered to your doorstep. Plenty of outdoor games and space for families. Private braai and secluded porch even if smaller units are next to each other.
WE only had one night... Everything was perfect

We enjoyed our stay here. The property is in a quiet location with a lovely garden and views of the surrounding mountains, but both Hout Bay and Constantia are a short drive away, with lots of cafes and restaurants nearby. You can also very easily drive into the city and down to Cape Point. Bonus points for all the friendly dogs! Really nice coffee provided too which was a bonus. And very close to Constantia Nek for walking and Kirstenbosch Gardens.

Waterland Lodge is definitely one of the best places we have ever stayed at. They have thought of so many little conveniences. The place is so beautiful and comfortable and my children just loved it. This is definitely now our favourite place to stay close to Cape Town!
The area does not have good cell reception but the lodge has excellent Wifi and there is even a little kiosk to get anything you may have forgotten. The beds are very comfortable and the bathrooms pristine. The staff was very welcoming ans helpful.
The only thing we didn't like is having to leave.

The location was great and easily accessible! WiFi was stable to compensate for the lack of network in the area. Appreciated the owner Grant coming with extra blankets and a gas bottle for the cold weather and he stepped in when we had an issue with an other guest. The rooms were cleaned each day which is a great way to maintain our stay! The scenery in the plot is absolutely breath taking!
Nothing! I will definitely come back soon

Beautiful, lush gardens with little nooks and crannies to get lost in. Breakfast presentation had a unique touch and came as a welcome surprise. Quiet, peaceful, clean and centrally located. Super impressed.
Honestly... nothing not to like.

Serenity, relaxed
Limited access without a car. No clear signs on property eg reception. When the person to assist you is held up, you wait until free.

It is in a beautiful setting. A lot of attention to detail in terms of the landscaping I'd say. Calm environment with little nooks and crannies to sit and enjoy the serenity of the surrounds.
There is nothing I did not like.

It is a lovely spot with beautiful gardens, privacy and a BBQ area. You feel very connected to nature. The dogs are lovely, the internet is fast and the view is to die for! The kitchen is very handy to cook your own food.
No TV in the room, on a cold miserable night a movie would have been good to watch

From the vibrant blossoms in the garden to the warm smiles of the people, everything in this place exudes an unparalleled charm. The river, winding gracefully through lush landscapes, dances with reflections of the sky, while the surrounding nature whispers the serene melodies of a forgotten paradise. This oasis, this little slice of heaven on Earth, beckons me with an irresistible allure. My soul yearns for more moments immersed in its tranquility, and I find myself counting the days until I can return to bask in its beauty once more.

It was very peaceful and relaxing, the water flowing from the river makes one appreciate the nature. Will definitely stay over in future when visiting Cape Town. Highly recommend this for the whole family.
Only the loadshedding was a problem in the evening and early morning.

The accomodation was adequate with braai area and spacious gardens
No serviced reception area to assist with issues. we were created by the manager / owner who left with his family for the weekend. Our units electricity tripped and Ben at the property tried his best to repair it however after returning from our evening out around 11pm we had no electricity with a note offering to move us and to please only get as app his number. we opted to sleep and contact him in the morning as it was late. In the morning we tried to contact the number listed for the property - no answer - we what’s apped Ben - no answer. The complaint from our side is that with a property with a number of units there should be someone there to assist or be able to call to assist. The property is in the hospitality industry however there is no real service ethic and this should be addressed. There should be a number with an accessible , competent staff member to assist the guests immediately. They are in the hospitality industry?

it's like a forest Wonderland, what with the cascading river just outside our cottage. every corner has a splash of creativity and inspiration imparted

Waterland Lodge is a lovely place to stay. I was only there one night but could have stayed a week! The gardens are beautiful, the host very welcoming and helpful, the room was excellent - private, comfortable, quiet and had everything I needed. Plenty of space for kids if you have them with you. Good wifi. Great location.
Nothing to not like. Everything was great.

The views and comfortable bed. The cottage was cosy and well equipped.
Loadshedding impacted the ability to warm meals and have coffee.. Maybe a gas stove could make the stay more comfortable?
