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.

What an absolutely amazing place! I kid you not I'm not even exaggerating! Everything from the day I made the booking right until the last day of our stay was exceptional. Sandy is so amazing, she really can handle her customers quite well. She was so helpful and patient, even without internet connection, we kept trying to contact her regarding things we could do on the weekend, with no complaints she took all our calls when she could and reverted to us. Sally my darling, you're awesome. Loved every single thing about Indlulamithi, the scenery, the cleanliness, even the drive was amazing. It seems as though Indlulamithi and I have a long relationship going forward. Thank you for such a wonderful stay. See you again soon.
