Warm your soul
Klein Kariba is such a beautiful place for water lovers. The warm pools are clean and inviting. The indoor pool has a special ambiance in the evening. The water slide is great fun and the putt-putt very challenging. Accommodation is basic, but adequate as you spend most of the day out in the beautiful surroundings.

A Horrible Weekend Stay
We found left overs from the previous guests in the microwave. The sewer of the unit next to our braai area was blocked and leaking. It made the whole outside area smell horrible. We couldn't use the braai outside. When we gave this feedback to the receptionist returning the keys, the lady just said ok, they're aware of that, didn't even apologise.

Fantastic Long weekend away with the family!!!
We really enjoyed our stay in Klein Kariba, my kids are still little and they were still able to do so much. My only suggestion is for a few extras in terms of self catering, just basic things in the kitchen make the stay a lot more pleasant :-) Kitchen towels for example.

The location is great for families with some good facilities and activities. However, the food and services in the onsite restaurant could be better. The prices of items in the onsite store were also very high. Taking advantage of a captive audience so, make sure you have everything you need for your self catering stay before you arrive or, shop in the town of Bela Bela.
