The view from my first apartment was great. One or two of the staff particularly were fantastic. Security at the gates were always lovely. I loved the kitchen and the le creuset cutlery was divine. The cleaning service was immaculate. Aircon worked. Hand and body wash smelt nice.
The coffee machine wasn’t very good coffee. And it leaked water. There was building going on next door that I wasnt told about so men were constantly walking past the doors so I wasn’t really able to sit outside in peace. And it was just a bit noisy in terms of being able to hear every thing happening in the hallway.

Shiraz 3 is located on the lower floor. Felt like going to a dungeon to reach the front door. The view from the room looked onto the pool (20m away) and a splendid 180 degree mountain scenery views. The king size bed was comfortable. The bathroom was a reasonable size. The breakfast room is a distance from the room but a buggy service is provided without charge. The breakfast has a cold section and a hot menu that provides ample food to eat. An onsite restaurant is being built and is expected to be completed in late 2025 so there is no evening onsite dinning available at present. The old settee was surprisingly comfortable to sit on.
The room and bathroom are typical of an age gone by and sadly wear and tear is very evident. Several sections of the white grout between the shower 1 inch square (25mm) tiles are grey black. There are no spare power points in the main room and only one in the bedroom under the luggage stool. There is refuse (garbage) odour just outside the room door leading to the entrance stairs.

The complex was great and the pool amazing. We had the back facing rooms. Next time would choose the pool/golf course facing rooms. (Worth the extra cost) Staff were very friendly. Breakfast was excellent. We were able to check out late in one of our rooms, despite them being very busy. The spa facilities were great. The Clubhouse was also amazing, great food and excellent views. We did not play golf, but would be a golfers dream.
Rooms were quite basic, but we did go for the cheaper option, so not really a complaint.

The location is stunning, with beautiful views of the golf course and mountains, and a particularly lovely vineyard. We also enjoyed the pleasant breakfast setting, just a short walk away. The wine tasting included in our stay was a highlight, and the staff at both the tasting and breakfast were excellent.
However, the rooms themselves need improvement. While they appeared adequate, the bathroom was dated, featuring a shower head with poor water pressure and slow hot water.

We upgraded our room, which meant we had a room looking onto the golf course / mountains and it was stunning. The room was gorgeous too, pool towels provided in the room. Fully kitted out kitchen. It was a perfect stay for my birthday. Amazing to see how on top of the gardening they are, upkeep is everyday. The food in the restaurants was also spectacular. The tapas style menu was so nice and the wine tasting was so insightful everyone is really helpful.
Nothing I can think of.

Great location on the secure wine estate. A short walk to the restaurant for breakfast, which also serves lunch. A longer uphill walk to the golf club restaurant, but a golf buggy is available via reception. It's a short drive into Stellenbosch. The accommodation is a bit noisy due to a lack of soft furnishings in the communal hallway and banging doors from other guests. A lovely spot with views of the golf course.
Noisy doors and hallway.

Great facilities with everything walkable or by using the free shuttle. Free wine tasting provided to guests staying on site and reduced golf rates. Meals at the golf club were excellent All staff were super friendly and helpful
The air conditioning in our room was not operating and because they were fully booked we could not change but they did bring us a big fan (sadly because of load shedding it was not operational all the time)

The setting and Kleine Zalze on the whole. Beautiful pool and trees where we had breakfast
Our room didn't have a view as the best ones do. It wasn't very private as it was the first room and other guests were often passing. I was under the impression that all rooms were the same standard and price. At reception, I was told that we were in the unit called Pinotage. When we got there we found that Pinotage consisted of a few rooms. We found Pinotage 4 open and went in. It was spacious with a balcony and grea tviews. My girlfriend was super impressed with her Valentines surprise. As my girlfriend and I lay on the bed cuddling, some guests walked in. How embarrassing. I suggested that reception tells guests clearly that there are a few rooms and that the number is on the back of the key. I know that I should've contacted reception to make sure

Professional and efficient hospitality team. The golf carts to the restaurant and Golf Clubhouse were highly convenient. The mountain views are breathtaking, the Kleine Zalze wine selection exceptional, and the swimming pool truly outstanding.
The air conditioning was noisy and somewhat challenging to operate. Breakfast options could be enhanced to provide greater variety for guests staying multiple days. However, the filter coffee was exceptional!

The location was excellent. It was near the main area of Stellenbosch, where you could get all the great restuarants. And of course the fact that it was in the middle of a wine yard was also really convenient. The staff was excellent, and I thought the rooms were very comfortable for the family.
Couldn't really think of anything. If I had to nitpick, I would say that the breakfast options were average.
