This video review certainly captures the resort beautifully. We have visited this resort about 5 times and have always had a wonderful experience. The cold, hot and hydro pools are my all time favorites.
Hi great and very informative video. I'm considering visiting either Eiland or Tshipise campsite this June to avoid the cold in Gauteng, I've also watched your Tshipise review. How would you say they compare to each other? My kids are 5 and 10 so I have to have them in mind when selecting the campsite. Thanks!
Hi there BananaCamper! To start with, I love both, but I think your kids would prefer Eiland - Tshipise, my favourite winter campsite is filled with "swaletjies" and pensioners over the winter months - Eiland too has a number of more senior campers, but there definitely were more children there when we visited in June 2023. Please check, but I think Eiland is more expensive, especially during the school holidays (but we are only 2 and the sites take up to 6 I think, which makes a difference). Both have lots of activities for the whole family and both have fantastic outdoor warm/hot pools. Tshipise is also further in distance. Both are fairly isolated in that it all happens on the resort with very little options nearby to explore. We are off to Tshipise for some of June and all of July, but my suggestion would be Eiland for your children.
@@GallivantingSA Thank you for your recommendation. I've been to a few ATKV and Forever resorts and my perception is the ATKV network has a better standard (in general). Also, you can book a specific site on ATKV and Forever is first come first serve which for me is not good as I always come late to the the resort. I'm still monitoring the weather and hopefully it will be warm enough for a good camping in June!
I love how your reviews are so detailed. You make planning so easy 😊
Thanks so much - glad that you are finding them helpful :)
An excellent video. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words 😀

Many thanks for the kind words and support - much appreciation!
