eKhaya Bush Villa

Place is old and tired. Broken door locks and bathroom fittings. Got locked out of the room a few times and owners/manager not interested and nowhere to be found.

The place is perfect, it has a perfect architecture and its really clean. I went alone and didnt how it was going to be, fortunately, i have Met Isabela, she is the house keeper who made me breakfast and dinner. She is extramately good cooking and kind 🤍

Great peaceful location and tasteful setting. Rooms and premises nicely decorated and very friendly, competent staff. Would definitely use this as a base for exploring the area and game parks. Close to shops and restaurants yet tucked away in secure gated community.

The name is honestly fitting. The ladies in that house make you feel at home and their food is worth every cent and more. I'll book again for longer than 2 nights and just disappear into the wild. Just peace and quietness. However, I wish the fence did not barrier the animals... I did not see any, but you could hear them from a distance.

We've rent the whole house for our whole family and it was a fantastic stay here at the Ekhaya. Each room is big. Each members of our family found the beds very confortable. Some little things was missing in the rooms but when we asked the 2 persons in charge of the house, we've get it very quickly. (for example Some hangers was missing in my room but when I asked for it I got it very quickly) The staff to make our stay more easier was incredible. I've asked something special for the birthday of my mom and Tanja and Clare managed to get it. But I particularly would like to thank Adronica and Viggy (the housekeeper and kitcheners) who were so kind with us. Thanks to her, we felt like in an hôtel but in a private home. To be honest, I was with my wife in Hoedspruit 5 years ago in a more luxury place (and way more expensive) where everything was perfect but we felt uncomfortable. Everything was perfect but without warmth. With the Ekhaya, by the way the house is built and the kindness of the staff you can feel that the human relationship are the most important things. So in my opinion, if you're in honey moon and you would like to be alone in a very exclusive place, I don't think the Ekhaya is suitable for you. But if you're looking for a house in a very good location and where you can feel like in a friend home so don't hesitate this is the place to be !

We were very disappointed with the amount of money we paid for our stay and the quality we received. I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone. The cleanliness is extremely poor. The kitchen was in a horrendous state, not sure how we were given such a filthy kitchen. There were spiderwebs EVERYWHERE! Some of the rooms weren’t cleaned thoroughly before we were given the property. The self catering equipment is not in a good state. Too much grime build up has accumulated on them because they aren’t properly cleaned. Beautiful Villa to accommodate a big family but needs lots of work on cleanliness especially for the price.
