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.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. A beautiful place. The view from the restaurant is amazing. The breakfast set up and menu was a bit strange with the buffet being cold breakfast only. Also limiting the number of drinks you can have at breakfast in such a hotel where it is not cheap to stay is very uncommon. Having stayed in a few five star hotels I have never experienced limitations and lack of choice over breakfast. We did have a wonderful stay, and the happy anniversary note left on the bed on arrival was a very special touch.
