What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Stunning Self-Catering

I recently had the pleasure of staying in one of the waterfront chalets, and it was absolutely fantastic! The chalet was spacious, comfortable, and impeccably clean. The kitchen was well-equipped with high-end Le Creuset cookware, which made cooking a joy. There was even a lovely outdoor deck with a BBQ area overlooking the stunning lagoon views, perfect for evening braais. I can't wait to return for a longer stay!

Great Bathroom Setup

During my 12-night stay, I loved how well the bathrooms were designed - spacious and clean, with both ensuite and family-style setups. The extra attention to cleanliness each day made it feel even more luxurious. Having that level of quality in the bathroom really added to the overall experience of relaxation during our family holiday!

Comfy and Cozy

I stayed in a middle cabin and was impressed with how comfortable the beds were. The thick duvets made for perfect sleeping conditions, and the cabin provided a cozy atmosphere that felt like home. With quiet surroundings and the soothing sounds of nature at night, I always woke up refreshed and ready to explore the day.

Perfect Leisure Setup

Under Milkwood truly excels in leisure options! The beachfront access allowed for easy swimming and safe play for the kids, and the free kayaks and paddleboards were fantastic additions to our stay. There were also plenty of sun loungers for relaxing by the lagoon. It was an ideal setup for family fun and relaxation all in one!
