Overnight stay
We were breaking our journey, so only there overnight, but it was a great stay. Wonderful having the animals strolling outside. Ideally a longer stay would be better to experience more that's on offer. Facilities were good. Direction signage could be better placed.
Vanie
There is lack of back up Power during load shedding. There is no water during load shedding as they only use borehole water. We had no water and couldn’t shower, the staff was unhelpful.
Stephanie
Week-end trip
Beautiful property with lots of space and fresh air. Very comfortable accommodation. Loved seeing all the animals.
Colin
No water, very limited electricty one plug in the room. No communication regarding the fact that there was no water available. No place to leave the door key card wheb we left
Mathilda
Spacious room and fireplace in room is a bonus
Lovely stay, with fireplace in room a bonus on a cold winter evening. Bedding fresh and clean. Beautiful venue. We enjoyed our stay and will defnitely book again
Chris
We enjoyed our stay at St Ives. The staff were so polite and helpful. One staff member (David) came by to check that everything was alright with our room and then offered to make a fire in our veranda grill stove while we went out to buy meat for dinner. When we came back from the store there was a wonderful fire there, ready for us to start grilling immediately. What service!

BORING BROWN
It was raining very hard and we had to run to our room in the rain, there is no cover to the rooms. The rooms are boring, brown and terracota, there is no special attention given to the rooms or bathroom. The pillows are way too high so you cant get comfortable.
Kylie
What a lovely place, and the wildlife was absolutely spectacular. Really enjoyed our stay and the barman and the staff at the Boma were OUTSTANDING.
Cheyne
We only had electricity in one or two lamps our entire weekend, whether load shedding was on or off. Even when we heard the generator running, will still didn’t have lights, kettle, etc. We still had lovely hot water, so it was all a bit strange. Thank goodness for a lovely fire and early nights.
Vanessa
Superb place
This establishment needs to be a 5 star resort. Super clean. Will definitely go again
Neo
St Ives is a beautiful place and the stuff is friendly. Thank you we really felt at home.
Q
Clean, spacious and beautiful surroundings.
The accommodation is spacious and clean in beautiful peaceful surroundings. The room interior itself could be updated, especially with 4 stars.

Relaxing and Peaceful Stay.
The place was very peaceful and beautiful. Very relaxing.
Included breakfast would have been appreciated, especially since the rates are quite high.

St ives stay
I enjoyed my stay in st ives , we stayed in one of rhe luxury suites and it was clean , spacious and tidy but my favourite thing about at ives was the luscious green acres of land sprawiling with zebras , duikers and game. I enjoyed running in the morning on the premises on the vitality trail and going for a dip in the pool after. I will definitely be heading back 3🙂
Nombuso

Happy customer
Andile's service was amazing - we left our daughters shoes behind and she called me the very same day to let me know. Don't see service like that often. Well done Andile!!
