On Site Facilities

At 1 on Ross, environmental consciousness meets comfort, providing guests with a unique and restful experience in the heart of Makhanda.

Embracing sustainability, 1 on Ross utilizes filtered borehole water and equips all units with rechargeable lights. Even during loadshedding, both water and lighting remain accessible. To ensure optimal water pressure, guests are kindly requested to schedule showers outside of loadshedding periods. However, toilets and basins remain functional at all times, with a generator-powered pump ready to restore pressure if needed.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
