Don't even bother!
The Blyde Pretoria is not a holiday or getaway destination. Our experience at The Blyde Pretoria was extremely disappointing and far from what we expected for a weekend away. Upon arrival, Google Maps directed us to the wrong gate which is for residents only, and there were no clear signs to assist us. Once inside, we drove around for about 15 minutes as the layout is very confusing and there is no guidance on where to go. We later found out that the swimming area closes at 18:00, that no items are allowed inside, and that you are required to pay an additional R150 per person just to access the swimming area. Apart from this, there is nothing else to do, leaving you stuck in an apartment. The braai facilities were broken, there were only two forks available for six people, the linen was stained, and the couch was dirty and damaged. Although it was stated that noise levels should be low after 22:00, the surrounding guests were extremely loud. We paid for two nights but decided to leave early the next morning (we didn't even went to the lagoon) due to the unacceptable conditions. Despite this, a refund was refused. We also struggled to get a PIN from the host just to exit the gates. This place should not be advertised as a getaway. It is simply residential flats, some of which are rented out at unreasonable prices. This was one of the worst experiences we have had. If i could give 0 stars i would.

Do not use thia company ever!!!
Extremely poor service, unprofessional conduct, and unacceptable customer treatment. This company never arrived for our scheduled move, despite the date and time being arranged one month in advance and paid for. On the day of the move, they were completely unreachable — they did not answer phone calls or messages at all. Only four hours later did we receive a message saying “sorry, we were busy.” This is completely unacceptable, especially as this happened over New Year, leaving us stranded and forced to urgently make alternative arrangements at the last minute. To make matters worse, the refund process has been just as pathetic. I have been given endless, changing excuses — holidays, finance director, accountant, someone out of the country — with no accountability and no urgency. I have had to repeatedly chase my own money, which is unacceptable. Thankfully, Linarich Movers came to our rescue at the very last minute. They went out of their way to help us, drove a long distance, and handled the move professionally under extremely short notice. I would highly recommend using Linarich Movers instead. 📞 010 500 6067 / 084 765 1722 Based on my experience, I strongly advise others to avoid this company.
