Top class with everything provided for self catering. An attractive building with comfortable facilities including an excellent BBQ which we used everyday. Fantastic value for money and highly recommended!

Blissfully peaceful setting, well equipped cottage.
Extremely peaceful setting. Saw buck, monkeys and various birds on our walks. Very comfortable beds. All facilities, utensils, linen, appliances etc were good quality and in good order. Having Wi-Fi available was a plus for us. Delicious pre-ordered picnics or braai packs delivered to you if required. One of the better establishments we have stayed at, excellent value for money. Thanks Sonja and Deon

A little gem in the green kalahari
We recently toured the green Kalahari on motorbike and decided to stay one night at Koekais guest farm. Best decision we ever made!!!. The lodge on the farm is more than we expected. The rooms and furnishing is above normal standards and we had the best stay imaginable. The owners of the lodge have gone the extra mile to make sure that everything needed is available and working and in tip top condition. We could not in any way, even remotely fault this establishment. All we can say is WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Although this is a self-catering lodge, we arranged prior to arrival with the owners to supply us with basic foods etc so that we had something to eat as we could not bring food stuff with as we were on a motorbike, and what a surprise we had when we opened the fridge and it was stocked with more food than an army could eat!!! It’s clear, that the owners will go that extra mile to make sure their guests is looked after

Making Memories
We took a family trip to Koekais Guest Farm in Griquatown and it was above and beyond what we expected. Warm & friendly hosts, very clean and neat accommodation that had everything we needed and more.
We were spoiled with a campfire and marshmallows that was an absolute treat for my city-kids and we got to sleep late as it was so peaceful there, we saw Kudu's and Meerkat and the sunrise was gorgeous.
We would absolutely recommend Koekais Guest Farm to anyone that needs a getaway!
Thank You Koekais Team for helping us make memories!
