"Lovely place, wonderful staff and gorgeous rooms in a very walkable and charming part of Swellendam. Bonus points for great running routes on the nearby mountain. Breakfast was extraordinary and in itself worth the trip. Would love to come back. "

We were only looking for an overnight stay while traveling to and from the Garden Route. We were not expecting a "resort" where people stay for several days to enjoy the beauty of the landscaping, pool and personal service. The landscaping was meticulously cared for. As we went to our car to leave an employee was washing our car! How many places do that?

This hotel & spa was relaxing and charming. The landscape and gardens are really well curated. The staff was really professional and helpful. I also had a great massage at the spa.

I had a great experience at Montagu Vines. The property and my room were beautiful and the breakfast was a good as any I’ve had at at B&B (made even more enjoyable by the view over the garden and olive grove). Best yet was the personal care provided the owners Pam and “Ant” who are very hands on. I highly recommended Montagu Vines.

The guesthouse was really beautiful and looked as if it was brand new. We only stayed for one night but we got some great tips on what to do in Swellendam and even for the rest of our trip. The breakfast was also really good!
I would definitely recommend to stay here, for the beautiful place and the nice reception by the owner.

This property is stunning! I cannot express in words how amazing it is. Beautiful, clean, comfortable with the most incredible staff I have ever experienced. I have traveled and stayed all over the world, this property is now #1 on my list.

Absolutely stunning views. Staff was phenomenal and a seemingly endless breakfast. Only regret was not staying longer. If you’re in the area for shark cage diving this is a no-brainer of a place to stay. Definitely will come back.

What a wonderful place out in the country! They honor of their way to please guests. Breakfast and dinner are high quality. Rather than the usual breakfast buffet breakfast is high quality served at the table with options.

Our stay at the Eikendal Lodge was really great! The place is in a perfect location, the lodge itself has a lovely garden, the room was absolutely perfect, and the service could not have been better.

This is an absolute gem of a guest house. Room was great. Breakfast was exceptional and generous. Staff could not have been more helpful
Shout out to Lisa for making feel so welcome.
