Merry Pebbles Resort  Verified Listing

The cabana was tidy and functional. Windows and doors opened and closed properly. The facilities for children within the resort are ample.

Very good place.

Staying at Merry Pebbles over the busy Christmas and New Year season was a pleasure. Staff are friendly, bathrooms adequate and location was central to many family friendly activities.

This is my fourth visit. Very little has changed over the years. Still happy with accommodation and facilities.

The cabanas in which we stayed was lovely with the new look and feel!

Thanks for a lovely stay.
Me and my family had a wonderful experience. Clean, comfortable, friendly establishment.
I will definitely visit again soon.
Thank you.

Camping grounds are excellent. Bathrooms were always clean and neat with hot water. An excellent weekend especially if you have children. Lots to do - fishing, swimming, riding bike and sight seeing. We had a wonderful weekend. It was however very very very cold at night! We really enjoyed our stay!

AMAZING! Clean place, with great service; as an Indian couple, Leon made sure he gave us some hot spices too :)

Wow, My fiance took me to Merry pebbles because he used to go there as a child.
What a surprise we loved it!!! We camp all over the place and were not let down by them!!! Thank you jenny for being so kind!! We camped but the cottages are so cute and right by the river. The campsite is excellent, ablutions clean and well kept as well as the camp grounds very well looked after!!! The pool guy must be a magician because the pools were so sparkling clean!!! We spent a lovely 4 nights and just relaxed. There is a laundry where you can do you own laundering. Close to town so it is convenient but not busy in terms of traffic. Close to the waterfalls and lovely historical towns like pilgrims rest. Will definitely return thank you TEAM MERRY PEBBLES

What a great name - both endearing and memorable! A very relaxing and well looked-after holiday park in a great location for touring the eastern escarpment. Places like Pilgrims Rest, God’s Window and the Three Rondavels are all easily reached from here. We stayed in one of the “cabanas” which we found spacious and pleasant, with all the facilities you could need. The park itself is lovely, really well-landscaped and has a good onsite restaurant, shop and two pools. The warm pool was a delight to relax in, a good size and again really well designed.

The best thing about staying here was the feeling of relaxation which swept over you almost as soon as you drove into the park. It’s a really good place to chill out and take it slow. The lady on reception was very pleasant and helpful.

One or two other reviewers have mentioned that there is noise from sawmills in the area. We did occasionally notice a high pitched whine, but it sounded quite far away and didn’t interfere with our sleeping or enjoyment of the park at all.

Most of the week we stayed here was very quiet and peaceful. It was midweek though and the place was half empty. It did get busier towards the weekend and I suspect the weekends are much more lively.

Only thing that did let it down was the WiFi which was irritatingly unreliable and threw you out every few minutes. I wish people would realise that WiFi these days is an essential resource, almost like running water. It isn’t a luxury to be strictly rationed.

Overall through we loved it here and decided to extend our stay. Decent value too midweek at a reduced rate of around R800 a night. I would recommend this place to anyone. Kids in particular will love it.
