Prana is a jewel of the Wild Coast. It enhances the beauty of the wilderness for travellers, as it doesn't spoil the natural beauty of the environment. Prana offers sophistication and luxury, while being conscious to the environment. The staff is welcoming,friendly, soft and highly attentive. I would be wrong to only mention one name because all of staff deserve praise, but I can say that Simba and Kholiswa really went out of their way to make us feel like royals.Thank you! The food was delicious, fresh and of good quality. Prana is superb and deserves all the 🌟s it gets . We will be back!

I liked the staff welcoming, they made us feel welcomed. It was like arriving at home. The location was perfect for driving from EL, the drive from the main road was just under 1 km. I enjoyed the food, it showed by presentation and taste that it was it was prepared by an experienced chef. The amenities were more that enough, some staff we even forgot we needed it and we remembered when they were presented to us to make our stay extra stay. I really cannot say enough about the staff's outstanding hospitality, you just need to stay at Prana to understand it.
I hate that I have to say this, the rooms at night could have been more cozy, i had to sleep with my night gown on to keep warm. I don't know if or was me or not. I refused to have the heater on the whole night. The check out process was a bit tricky, the reception couldn't locate our money that was paid way in advance. At the end it was sorted.

Great location, great facilities, property is spectacularly clean, warm and caring staff including Andre the manager. Get treated like you are the only guest. Being gluten and luctose intolerant, I always struggle, not at Prana lodge. The food was stunning including their luctose and gluten friendly deserts. Everything was perfect . It’s going to be annual retreat.
Everything was excellent.

This is an exceptional place, beautifully appointed and situated and with superb staff. The secluded forest setting yet only seconds from an enormous open beach is in our experience unmatched. The fine dining experience was also special.
Nothing, we had a wonderful holiday here.

An exceptional hotel. Only eight rooms, so it felt very special. The room was ultra luxurious with the most incredible view. The food was superb. The staff very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. The location is next to a fabulous beach, unspoilt and quiet. The hotel grounds were beautiful. I would love to stay again soon.
Having to leave as it is such a wonderful place.

The main aim was for my friend to destress after the loss of her mother. The treatments and the serenity of the place persuaded her to even extend her stay. It was exactly what she needed and beyond. Thank you for making it worthwhile.
Everything was just perfect. The ambience, the private beach was just what the soul needed.

Everything from being received and checked in was exceptional. The staff's attention to detail and their knowledge of everything they are doing is exceptional. Everybody goes out goes out their way to meet the customers tailor maid request and standard. The breakfast was lovely and the idea of being served in your suite at the deck or balcony was beautiful. It was served at your requested time and promptly so. The fruits were fresh and eggs made the exact way one requested.
Nothing......everything from what i requested was met with stellar commitment. I have not experienced the whole Prana to give such an informed opinion but from my own experience nothing more should have been done, it was excellent.

Location is stunning. Plants and trees are awesome. Feels like you are in a jungle paradise. The beach is superb.
Food options are aimed at foreigners and extremely wealthy. Some of us are fortunate but know the value of money. Food more pricey than London, Geneva, Paris, Rome, Edinburgh, Kitzbuhl or Munich. Not acceptable for the price already charged for the room.

The place is fantastic, surrounded by an enchanted forest, and the staff was amazingly nice. The chef is very talented, we had great vegan food! And the cherry on the cake is the suite... Thank you to everyone, you made our stay really special!
