My partner and I visited this restaurant for dinner and found the entire evening to be absolutely exquisite. The Manu is similar to a tasting menu comprising of some 6 courses. everything was beautifully presented at a measured dignified pace, from the chicken liver starter to the dessert, everything was just perfect. This is very much a venue for a special occasion and is really worth a visit. Apart from the food the ambience is world class, and you are treated to a pre dinner exposition by the chef. make it a priority to visit this exceptional restaurant.

We have been staying at Serendipity for many, many years (20+) and make it a necessity to go there when passing by, even if only for a few nights. Very comfortable rooms with aircon and DSTV. Tea/coffee making facilities and a fridge. Enough wardrobe space. The bathroom is compact but has everything that you require for a comfortable stay. Bathrobes provided. Just 4 rooms only. Each room shares an upper balcony overlooking the lagoon. Table and chairs and loungers. Small garden and canoes available for use on the lagoon. Solar power supplemented by Eskom as necessary. Elsabe loves to ensure that you are taken care of. Beautiful breakfasts daily - Fruit juice, fruit, yoghurts, cheeseboard, bread and croissants, pancakes. Coffee machine with ground coffee. Dine there too with the award-winning chef (Lizelle) who created the loveliest of meals. Great place and back in October.

The room was lovely, the deck over the lagoon offers wonderful birdwatching opportunities (and if you wish you have kayaks to get onto it), the generosity of spirit and homeliness warms one’s heart, but the gem of this place is the restaurant. A winner of many awards it offers unique local and creative dishes that will remain in your memory. Do not miss it!

Stay 02/22-24/24 What a wonderful stay in Serendipity. The hostess Elsabe does everything to make the guests feel comfortable. What a great atmosphere this house offers with a terrace, tastefully furnished interior and located directly on the river bank. The house's daughter, Lizelle, an internationally awarded chef, offers a 5-course evening menu as a highlight. Of the 9 locations we booked on our SA trip lasting several weeks, certainly in the top 3. We felt very comfortable here and will definitely book at Serendipity again when we stop in Wilderness.

It was a pleasure to be met by the owner who is a lovely lady who had treats waiting for us in our room for our wedding anniversary stay. The evening meal was delicious and generally one could not wish for a more relaxing and homely stay. We loved it and would thoroughly recommend others to stay here.

A Wilderness Gem: Tucked away down a quiet road in lush vegetation is the guesthouse of Elsabe who is Owner/Manager of Serendipity. Located along the banks of the Touw river and close to all amenities of Wilderness, this lovely well established guest house also has an award winning restaurant. Elsabe showed us to our upstairs ensuite room leading onto a deck overlooking the River. Tastefully decorated and equipped to ensure guests are very comfortable with aircon and ceiling fan, a bar fridge and tea station. A lovely outdoor patio overlooking the river, has comfortable furniture to enjoy drinks or morning coffee/tea with rusks . A beautifully presented English & Continental breakfast served each day by friendly staff. A most enjoyable 2 day stay to sample fine cuisine at Serendipity. (Mon-Saturday for prebooked dinners cooked by top executive chef Lizelle). Thanks Elsabe& Lizelle for all the added treats and our delicious Choc Torte celebration cake ! Best wishes Elizabeth & Terence Kelly .
