Where pricing is "per unit" the Average Price Per Person based on maximum occupancy is used for the price range comparison. A search made for Homes and Villas however will always be based on the full daily rate of the unit irrespective of the number of people the unit sleeps.

Guest Comments

The venue is very nice, and i wil certainly use it again. The only problem that we had was that the fridge in the unit was not working, and the aircon was not blowing hot air at all. The venue advertise that the units have underfloor heating in the winter as well which did not exist. The only other thing was that the hotwater pressure in the shower is very poor.

Although we enjoyed the time there, the Family Unit was a bit too small for a family of 5. We also felt that the unit was a bit over-priced.

Beautiful farm and great views of the river. Very quiet surroundings. The cottage however seemed untidy and dirty (bugs in the lamp covers, dirt round the shower, bad patches of humidity on the walls). Door between kitchen/dining and bedroom could only open half way as it was obstructed by a wardrobe. We expected a higher standard for the price we paid.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at River of Joy. They promptly responded to our enquiry and their directions were clear - we easily found the place, which is important when one is tired. We especially appreciated that they were able to accommodate my husband who has to use a wheelchair. It was a good experience at River of Joy - the farm atmosphere and interaction with the animals certainly relaxes one after a long drive from Durban.
