Best Grahamstown Spa Hotels

To put our feelings about this magical place into 200 characters is impossible…. From the minute we arrived we were treated like royalty.. Hannes and his staff are the loveliest people and made us feel so special… our room was huge with a gorgeous bathroom and terrace with its own plunge pool overlooking the lake… the food was absolutely incredible and non stop! Cleo, our ranger is like the African Crocodile Dundee! His knowledge and ability to spot things miles into the distance meant we saw the big 5 as well as cheetahs.. zebras… giraffes.. hippos… the list is endless… we were so blessed and grateful to have experienced all of this in just 3 days… I cannot recommend Pumba enough, we have taken away memories that will last a lifetime
