Honeymoon


Excellent accommodation, food and atmosphere in a beautiful natural environment. The private spa bath on the deck of the honeymooner's room was wonderful.

Garden Route Night 8


Great - genuinely right in the forest. Amazing room, even better bathroom with both shower and bath feeling like they are almost outside due to the massive windows. Very good food, couldn't possibly finish all 6 courses - definitely a remote, romantic location. Massive wind and rain storm hit while we were staying which made it even more magical. One word of warning - hold onto your toast at breakfast, the monkeys know what they want and they are very fast!!!

Good start to a honeymoon


Phantom Forest Eco Reserve is fantastic in the sense that their service is impeccable, their rooms luxurious and setting exquisite with wonderful views and beautiful decor. The staff are very professional with very good manners. The food was also delicious and the massages we received were fabulous. It is highly rated internationally, and with good reason.
