"This is a really spacious and tastefully furnished home in a huge and beautiful garden setting. The kitchen is well equipped, with all you need of terms of cookware, utensils, crockery, cutlery and large variety of glassware. Both the pool and tennis court were well used by our family group of ten (grandparents, adult children and four young grandkids). There was an abundance of both bath and pool towels, and all the bedding was very comfortable. Good grocery stores and takeaway food options were a close drive away. Lara was a great host, always responsive to any queries we had. We would highly recommend Shanee Prana as a fantastic and very special getaway destination."
