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 .

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.

This was our second visit to Serendipity. It did not disappoint. Wonderful. The restaurant also lived up to our expectations. Wilderness is a great place to stay for everything. Beach, tracking, boating and swimming. Thank you Elsabe.

Serendipity The stay in Serendipity is so warm and lovely. It is like coming to the hearth of your childhood home. The jewel of the crown is the restaurant where you have a creation of art on every plate to indulge in. The Serendipity is a rare gem in the beautiful landscape of South Africa. I will return.
