“Emma and her team providing a great service to their guests.”
This is our fourth or fifth visit to Gerald’s Gift so we like it! We had the Kingfisher room, beautifully furnished, spacious and immaculately clean. Breakfast was great and made to order. The pool was super clean and provides a great view of the gardens and beyond. We went for an early morning walk on the farm for an hour they grow oranges and lemons. Convenient for Addo elephant park which is very helpful.
