The best clean lodge
What an amazing place to stay, very well deserving of it's 4 stars. The place is so well kept spotlessly clean inside and outside. A special thank you to Elmarie who made us feel ate home and what impressed me the most is how she selflessly commended her dedicated staff. If you are looking for peace and tranquility Summer Garden is the place to go. I will definately be going back soon.

Contratei um quarto com vistas para o jardim, não era o local contratado nem tinha vista alguma.Chegamos subimos em um transporte e nos levaram a um outro local, outro endereço e descobrimos que vendem todas as diárias , em escesso e depois colocam os hóspedes em outros endereços. Ficamos porque seria apenas uma noite. o atendimento foi perfeito, mas não foi isso o que contratei.
