"Fantastic place to relax and wind down. The owner was fantastic, the food and service were excellent. I would definitely recommend the Shangri-la to anyone staying in Wilderness."
"On our way from Cape Town to the wonderful Pure Nature Lodge in Paterson we stopped twice at The Old Trading Post for one night stop-over. We really enjoyed it and on the way back to Cape Town it felt already like coming home :-) And the pizza dinner was really outstanding - really the best pizza we ever had!!!"

Beach Villa Wilderness
10/10 Excellent
"Deon & Leane were incredible hosts. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, we felt welcomed and spoiled. The staff was attentive to every detail imaginable, the room was spotless and extremely comfortable and the views are breathtaking. Very sad we only had one night, we are already planning our return trip. "
"This is one of our favorite half-way stops on our way down to Cape Town. Wildernis is a quant little town with world-class restaurants and The Wildernis Hotel is such a great place to stay. Lovely pool, padel, tennis and mini-golf facilities. Excellent breakfasts! And very, very friendly staff."
"Beautifull farm with fantastic views, mountains and sea, sunsets and sunrises.
Interesting guests and nice vibe.
Lovely outdoor deck where guests can relax and enjoy the views.
Room comfortable and nice hot shower, clean.
Blinds cannot be openen properly, broken ties.
Communal kitchen and lounge area available for guests. Unfortunately, untidy, not clean, utensils, crockery and appliances tacky, some broken and not clean.
Poor housekeeping and maintenance of all areas.
Outdoor areas not well maintained.
Grass too long, slippery areas where a proper path or steps could help, rubbish bin overflowing.
Staff have a don't care attitude.

"Wonderful place, luxurious accommodations, wish we had more time to enjoy it. Right next to the beach the thunderous crashing of waves was magical. Rooms well appointed with lots of treats and drinks all included. "
"Brilliant find. Spacious modern spotless rooms with beautiful views in a garden setting. Friendly and helpful hosts. Great restaurants in easy walking distance."
"The ideal place to stay on the Garden Route as approximately halfway.However more importantly The Trading Place exudes a beautiful calm rustic charm, exemplifed by the host. The most delicious breakfast awaits you at a time of your choce, the bread is homemade. Highly recommended is their preordered pizza in the evening. The host is coincidentally the guide for the river trips, so has exceptional knowledge on the nature of the area. If all this attracts you if you are considering being based in the Wilderness area I would urge you to stay here."
Kayak, hike or cycle through a spectacular green nature reserve bursting with diverse plant and animal life, including an endangered seahorse that you can see while snorkeling in the lakes.
Commune with nature and explore the great outdoors at Wilderness Lagoon during your travels in Wilderness. Wander the beaches and riverfront in this quaint area.
