“a break of comfort & convenience”
The location was ideal and safe car parking a bonus, We took a suite and the rooms were light and airy with individual aircon. Beds were very comfortable . A swimming pool was on the premises. A generous cooked breakfast meant we needed no further meal until evening .

“A perfect place to chill in Prince Albert.”
Andre met us upon arrival and was kind enough to take our suitcases upstairs. This is quite a grand house, with a large pool and we were lucky to have it to ourselves. We had driven over the Schwartzberg Pass and Price Albert was a great place to relax afterwards, We were treated to quite a magnificent thunderstorm and the roof and windows held up very well. Breakfast was cooked for us by the staff and it was perfect. We would recommend the Sanctuary to other visitors.

The accommodation is great. The room is furnished with great attention to detail and has a huge bathroom. It looks as if it has been recently renovated. The garden with a pool invites you to linger. I can only recommend booking this accommodation. Super host!
