Bath and toilets facilities in hotel were outdated. Shower in tub was very uncomfortable and small and unhygienic. Taps were difficult to open and close. No mixer was present. Rooms were musty.
Spa treatments were substandard.

We loved everything about Gooderson. So child friendly, fantastic staff, and so many activities. We will be back.
The a le carte restaurant was very slow, and not attentive at all. We left after 20min of not being served. Thankfully the buffet restaurant was fantastic so we went there.

Very happy with our unit. Loved the walks/hikes, the Adventure Park. Very well looked after property.
Got a bit warm during the night, so a fan in the room would be great.

1.5 / 5.0
Scenery is stunning had fun at shooting range using pellet guns, Sunset deck, stunning golf course if I do come back I would definitely play at least 9 hole.
1. Accommodation: On google page Gooderson Drakensburg Gardens Golf and Spar Resort is has the rooms where has views overseeing Golf course and Dam. That all we wanted but to learn that is the other "riverside" side only.
2. Welcoming package has champagne was not asked what type I wanted, I wouldn't have choose J.C Leroux I would not mind to add more money to get a better champagne.
3. Food on the 1st Friday was horrible, worse the beef.
4. At reception were told non of the places we need to book, to our surprise the restaurants were full on Saturday night.
5. Wellness Centre, poorly maintained, green water...We had a couple full body massage...the juice was terrible.

The kids enjoyed the pools, play area and put putt.
The one slide didn't work, there small insects inside the hot pool and the seating area by the pool needs some attention.
4.5 / 5.0
Rooms are cleaned daily, lots to do and the staff are friendly and helpful. Roads are a full of potholes, but if you drive slowly and enjoy the views you are fine. All in all a very comfortable stay with everything one needs to relax.
The roads could do with some maintenance, like most in South Africa.
