Guest Reviews at Kariki Villa
We’ve gathered a few of our favourite reviews from guests that have stayed at KARIKI.
“The Kariki Experience was more than what I expected, I was so happy to discover that everything is exactly as what's on the images, and the reviews others shared are true. Solo traveller and I felt safe throughout. The hosts told me fascinating history about the house and gave me a plug of nearby attractions and restaurants. Ohh and the coffee? I'm definitely going back for it soon!”

“What an amazing find...breathtaking views, beautiful home and lovely hosts. We had a wedding to attend right up the road at Talloula so this was perfect for us. KARIKI staff made everything very easy to check in and out, great communication and just all round great people. Hoping to have a reason to come back in the future!”

“Anyone who decides to book this Villa will not be disappointed. The location is beyond words and the hosts made me feel like one of the family. I loved the guided walk into the valley and the best cup of coffee in the whole universe as the sun set. A quiet and contemplative morning staring out at the exquisite view. Like Arnold said...'I'll be back.”

“Spacious historic house. great outdoor area with views of the valley. We had a great barbecue and fireplace evening, a hike with the host and extremely delicious coffee. We would have liked to have stayed longer.”

“Kariki Villa was an amazing experience and we absolutely loved it. The staff were so friendly, welcoming and engaging. The view speaks for itself. There is truly nothing like it! The entire property is beautiful with lovely features. It’s located in a super central place in regards to Hillcrest and has some amazing restaurants and places to go. The house was pristine and was so comfortable, we felt right at home. In fact we didn’t want to leave! They have just recently started an exciting adventure featuring gravity bikes! I would highly recommend it as you can venture through the delightful terrain. There is so much beauty in terms of scenery and wildlife! The property is also located right next to Phe-Zulu game reserve and you can even see the animals like giraffes from the house. It was the best place that we have stayed and we would definitely come again! Would highly recommend this place!
