Liamara s a delightful surprise - so close to the airport, yet a tranquil bush escape and a remarkable oasis from the everyday rush. We were impressed from the moment we saw a sign pointing to a crooked dirt road through a farm. We were welcomed by a serene sight: springboks and zebra peacefully grazing. Liamara is the kind of gift you give to yourself, boasting lovely rooms, exceptional staff, and beautiful lking trails through an indegenous forest. The attention to detail throughout the estate s impressive.
I stayed at Liamara Estate for business travel to East London. It s a wonderful experience. The owner Sva Mali and her team really understands hospitality and provides it to their guests. Every need or wish is anticipated, realized and therefore makes the whole stay very special. The outstanding experience is not only supported by the guest service at Liamara but also by the location, the house, the rooms, the food and the overall setting with the wildlife around. I will definitely come back and can strongly recommend for business and private travel.

The staff s excellent, the host s accommodating and took already elite hospitality to another level - epic.The food s delicious, the rooms stunning , the views stunning. I cannot say enough about my stay there, words will never completely express just how great everyone and everything s. Whether you're looking for a relaxed getaway or have an event, they do it all here because I did both and excellence still isn't saying enough. If I could give this place a 10 star rating, I would- worth every penny

I s introduced to Liamara earlier this year & have enjoyed nothing but personal, professional and friendly service each time I visited. What stands out everytime is how the Team goes all out to make me feel comfortable and meet all my requirements. Liamara is truly my second home- home away from home. The team’s attention to detail regarding meal choice, most comfortable rooms and overall their friendliness, are some of the the key aspects that differ from many other establishments I have used.
