The place is out of this world. What you see in the website is what you get on arrival. It is the best place I have ever been to. The staff was welcoming on arrival, the manager welcomed me personally. I recommend it to anyone. The comfort of the bed is superb. Wooow what an excellent experience. I will definitely return for a holiday. Thank you for your hospitality

The staff were exceptional. The hotel is a little difficult to find but worth the effort. The gardens , pool area and choice of eating locations provide a relaxing feeling. The constant 'music' spoiled the atmosphere slightly.

Disappointing experience

The experience wasnt so good, on arrival no one was at the reception. The first room that I was given, the WC was dirty and stink with water on the floor. I had to ask for other room which was given. But this is concerning special on this COVID period. If they dont make sure the rooms are clean and safe for covid, this will affect customers experience. PS: This was not the first time I stay at this hotel, the other times the experience was good.

nights on business

Second time I’ve stayed at La Villa Vita. Despite Covid restrictions, the staff were friendly and accommodating. My room was clean and comfortable, and the AC worked perfectly in the hot humid conditions that are common in this part of the world. Perhaps the only small criticism I have is that there was no desk in the room. The wifi worked great though. The breakfast (free on my booking) was very good.

Séjour de 2 nuits avant un vol long courrier. Hôtel très agréable, les chambres sont propres et bien décorées. Nous avions une salle de bain avec douche et baignoire. Le petit déjeuner buffet est excellent, les repas à la carte également. Nous avons passé un séjour très relaxant. Je recommande cet hôtel !

I didn’t like the fact that there was no electricity at night even at 5 am when getting ready we showered in the dark. I paid via PayPal and was called back to the villa from Kruger National park because the receptionist was saying we didn’t pay. The employees seemed inexperienced and were not really there to please the guest. I had asked for a partial refund since I had to leave Kruger National Park Sunday to go to the front desk. I was there for 3 hrs before I got cleared which was strange because Anastasia an Indian manager knew I had paid via PayPal. The whole thing was a joke. The owner said he was going to refund our stay. I messaged him but never heard from him. The resort is nice but employees need to do better customers service wise. I wasted our day Sunday because I had to go back to prove that I had paid already
