"This was misleading advertising on Hotels.com. I selected a tent with 2 queen beds and a bunk bed for about R1700. Just before we arrived I got a call from the hosts and let them know that 2 friends would arrive 30 minutes before us. I was told that I would have to pay an additional R790 for them because they charge extra each person over 2. This was not made clear on the app. This accommodation was not worth over R2,500 for the night. Unhappy guests who feel ripped off."

"We had bats living in our roof, apparently knowingly by the owner (they built a house for them on the near cabin and they migrated to ours). We had to go to bed and sleep with constraint scratching and sliding noises, that was terrible. When we brought it to the attention of the team, they didn’t even bother apologising. The dinning experience over dinner and breakfast was terrible - worst service I’ve seen for a while and average food (it’s quite expensive considering its surroundings). Stay...

When is the best time to go to The Crags?
The best time to visit The Crags is during the summer months, from November to February, for warm weather and outdoor activities, or in the shoulder seasons of spring (September to October) and autumn (March to May) for a balance of pleasant weather and fewer crowds.

During the summer, you can expect average temperatures ranging from 20°C to 28°C (68°F to 82°F) with plenty of sunshine, making it ideal for enjoying the local beaches and outdoor adventures. This is a great time for families looking to spend time exploring nature reserves or couples wanting to relax by the ocean.

The shoulder seasons offer mild and pleasant weather, with average temperatures between 18°C and 25°C (64°F to 77°F). These periods are great for travelers who prefer to explore the area's attractions, like Monkeyland or Birds of Eden, without the peak season rush. You'll find it easier to book accommodations and activities, making for a more relaxed trip.

While winter (June to August) is cooler and wetter, with temperatures around 10°C to 20°C (50°F to 68°F), it's still a good time for whale watching, as Southern Right Whales migrate to the coast.
