Guest reviews· 8.1/10 (767)
Val d'Or Estate consistently receives praise as a pleasant and comfortable destination, with many guests highlighting its excellent value for money and prime location in Franschhoek, making it an ideal choice for a weekend getaway. The property offers various amenities contributing to guest comfort, including an outdoor swimming pool and a spa and wellness center, suggesting a relaxing environment.
While generally positive, some recurring points of feedback emerge. Several guests noted that while their stay was enjoyable, they felt it was expensive. A practical consideration is the accessibility of upper floors, which are only reachable by stairs, potentially posing a challenge for some guests. Additionally, accommodation features single-room air conditioning, which might not be ideal for all preferences, though ground-floor and wheelchair-accessible units are available, along with interconnected room options and amenities for children.
