Traumatised after abuse on by staff

Reviewed By shelmadeanm

27/03/22 - We went to the restaurant after check-in. Mark, who I understand is your resort manager, personally served us. Our order consisted of drinks and food for 2 adults and 2 children. 3 out of 4 of these meals were unsatisfactory. We left the restaurant and still needed to get alternate food at a late hour, due to this. 29/03/22 - Breakfast service. We asked for the extensive buffet to be reduced, as not to waste as much food as the previous morning. This was done, but I was informed that your kitchen cook was dissatisfied with this. 29/03/22 - We went to the restaurant to have lunch. We were served with drinks. We weren't offered menu's and found out after enquiring that the restaurant was not open for lunch service. We were never informed about this by the reception staff or the restaurant staff. No other food options are offered on-site. 30/03/22 - We went to the restaurant for dinner - 3 adults and 2 children. We again ordered drinks and dinner for all. During this period, there was barely any staff available, to the extent that we needed to find Mark alone in the main reception to assist us further. We ordered your beef fillet (medium done) with chips only. The meal was delivered to the table with mash, vegetables and well-done steak. We returned this meal via Mable and stated that a replacement was not needed. Shortly after we were approached by your kitchen cook. He stated that he was there regarding the steak that was returned. My husband indicated that he didn't require a replacement and would prefer to discuss the matter later. The cook took immediate offence and raised his voice at us. I asked the cook to please leave us be, but he blatantly refused. He shouted at us that if we didn't like it, we should leave the restaurant. My family and I felt extremely embarrassed, as this happened in front of your other restaurant patrons. We however got up from the table and all proceeded to leave. I stayed behind to settle the bill, once Mark forcefully had to remove your kitchen cook from the restaurant. The cook was at that stage screaming at us violently. I was really scared that he would do harm to me or my young children. As a remedy, I was offered a shot of tequila and a reduction in the evening bill by removing the steak. This was done, in the presence of my husband. Mark told me that he couldn't handle the matter and would get you to call me the same night or following morning. I accepted this, as you were not available at that stage to assist. I am still awaiting your call or contact. The next morning upon check-out at roughly 09:00, I was apologised to by Mark in a brief passing. The kitchen cook was outside for this period, watching this interaction. 31/03/22 - We could not have breakfast in your restaurant, for fear of being treated ill by the staff, due to the previous evening's incident. In general, the restaurant waiters were not efficient and seemed to be understaffed, which was confirmed to be true by Mark. No bottled WATER was available when we went on the 1-hour quad activity. Surely this should be a priority when you advertise that you have a store and full restaurant. Accommodation unit 12: The unit was inadequately stocked with cutlery for the quantity of occupants. Upon arrival the toilet was found to be malfunctioning. My husband corrected the error. The shower water pressure was extremely poor. The outside braai area was filthy and the braai itself was found to be in a disgusting state. I had to scrub this with my personal cleaning chemicals and equipment in order to use it. Inadequate cleaning products and equipment were provided for the braai. The shower drain was broken and caused a cut to my son's foot. The bedroom plugs were both malfunctioning, making use near impossible. The bathroom door does not stay closed. We found our unit left unlocked after going out to do some activities for the day. It was forgotten by the staff during the cleaning process. Accommodation unit 27: We were unable to make use of the fireplace in this unit, as when we tried to do so, the entire open plan area filled with smoke. General matters: We made use of your activities frequently. During 2 of the toboggan trips we did, we had to accompany your staff member to go fetch his lunch etc before we could start the activity. It is understood that our party was discussed in depth by your staff members. When I went on the toboggan trip on the last day, I was questioned by your staff about the incident with the kitchen cook. Nolene also confirmed that she knew about the dissatisfaction of the meals of the first evening. I find this highly unprofessional!! We were made to be so self-conscious, especially during our last day, because of the gossip. The driver of your safari vehicle was using his telephone whilst driving with my family. He was not happy about the fact that we asked him not to do so. When you spend R20k on 4 days at a resort with your family, you expect to have fun, good food, good accommodation and friendly staff.

The Lodge is just the place for a fishing vacation or weekend getaway, but any nature lover will find themselves in a proverbial paradise. For the sedentary tourist, relaxing on the wooden decked patio watching the abundant birdlife is a must. The Sabie area is truly a birders paradise. Not only is there a huge variety of the more common bird species, but a number of globally and nationally threatened species also occur in the area. For those in need of exercise, on farm trails and walks to the nearby waterfalls & caves are just as enjoyable but should you require additional stimulation: - Various mountain bike trials are available onsite. Arrangements can be made for Quad Bike tours, horse riding, gorge-swinging, rafting & many more activities. The aborigine word for home is "Gunya". The name of our guest lodge is Gunyatoo, embedded in our name is our philosophy and commitment to our guests - " our home is your home". Come and stay with us a while and it can be your Gunya-too!

Amazing venue.

It was raining the whole time that we were there, but it didnt matter because the host was amazing. She organised a nice crackling fire for us in the fireplace. We played pool, darts, chess and charades. She shared awesome stories with us about the house and their travels. Absolutely loved the house and decor. Definitely going back with the whole family.

Fantastic Stay in Sabie

Reviewed By Lynette C

Everything was incredible. Chris and Merle, who run the place, are just the most wonderful people you will meet. They are so kind and they took such good care of us. There is secure parking at the back. The room was spacious and the breakfast the next morning was amazing! Chris' wildlife photography is displayed all over the house. The location is very quiet and it is easy to get to many of the waterfalls in the area. Graskop and Pilgrim's Rest are also not very far away. I highly recommend this place.

The Sabie Townhouse Guest Lodge

Greg and Family offer guests a warm personal welcome to our lovely, distinctive home, constructed of river stone and local timber, peacefully situated overlooking the stunning natural beauty of the Sabie Gorge. Without exception, the many guests who have stayed with us comment on the uniqueness of our home and that photographs just do not do it justice. From the verandah you can catch a glimpse of the hyrax enjoying the early morning sunshine, watch our resident sunbirds sipping nectar from strelitzia and hibiscus flowers, hear the occasional fish eagle calling and we have even been lucky enough to have a hippo wander by! Or you may like to take a short stroll across open bushveld to sit on the rocks and admire the gorge and river below. The emphasis of our spacious rooms is to offer guests comfort and a place to relax and feel at home. All have a separate private entrance and the majority overlook the lush gardens. Children are welcome, so we have family suites available and we are the only wheel chair friendly guesthouse in Sabie. Sumptuous breakfasts are served either in the dining room or on the verandah overlooking the swimming pool. We offer warm and friendly hospitality.

Too many electric breaks. Room was at the second floor and stairway was very narrow and deep. Breakfast was very good. It was not allowed to eat anything or drink in the rooms. That was strange. There were too many big prohibition signs on walls of the room. We did not feel being welcome to the hotel.
