              Fantastic staff”

              We enjoyed our stay at Sibaya mainly because the staff were so welcoming and assisted us with everything we needed. I would like to specifically mention Hassan who was helping when there was a looot of confusion with my booking prior to my arrival. Upon arrival, Zandi and Lereko were absolutely amazing providing friendly and efficient service and going the extra mile. Thank you very much and please keep it up as you advance in your careers.

              Enjoyed our two nights at Sibaya. Very nice location overlooking the ocean and peaceful stay. Enjoyed the variety of options at breakfast. There is also a nice entertainment room for kids where we took our little one to enjoy. Really enjoyed the swimming pool where you can enjoy a view of the ocean as well. Would definitely recommend travelers to stay here!

              The staff were friendly but they could have done more to make our stay even more pleasant. We requested some snacks prior to check in, while we were waiting for our dinner at the spa. They couldn't assist. The bellboy wasn't available upon checkout we had to push our own trolley, while there was a staff member just standing around doing nothing.

              The hotel could do with improvements”

              The staff is very friendly and the breakfast was great. However the hotel needs some improvements: There are no fridges in the room so you expect guests to drink warm water even on hot summer days especially since you don't not provide dinner where do you expect guests to put their food? The beds at 2021 are due for an upgrade, there's nothing irritating than to leave a comfortable bed at home to sleep in a crapy expensive hotel bed... Oh and your bedding 🙄 looks like rejects from other hotels.

              Sibaya lodge is a beautiful lodge but the staff is horrible. Absolutely unfriendly people. My 3 day stay was not the best , our rooms was not cleaned only beds were made. Bins not emptied. Your restaurant were breakfast was served was really bad service. Firstly thr seating arrangements very very bad. On every single day we had to wait to be seated with no system in place and I have seen restaurant staff organizing tables for regular guests and not wanting to help people that visit once in a while. We asked for coffee and the waitress serving my family of 7 just had a bad attitude. It felt as if she did not want to serve us and asking for coffee was to much for her. On walking pass the passage way and seeing staff members I greeted so many of them and it fell on a deaf ear. They just donot acknowledge you. A beautiful resort that needs a good management system and maybe some training for staff . Will I come back , may be I will but I would really like to see some nice smiles and friendly staff
