About the property
A combination of Austrian elegance and South-African relaxed atmosphere, Oliver`s overlooks the 18-hole championship White River Golf Course. It provides award-winning dining opportunities.
One of South-African top 100 restaurants, Oliver`s serves a fusion of Mediterranean and continental dishes, matched by a renowned wine list. Food is served on the veranda, looking out on to the golf course.
Guest rooms have been individually decorated with pastel colours and antique furnishings. Some have exposed wooden beams, others exclusive outdoor showers, but all have views on the green surroundings of the Mpumalanga forests.
Relaxation facilities include a spa operated by professional therapists, which offers treatments with aromatherapies and natural oils. The surrounding area provides adventure tours in the Kruger National Park and the Blyde River Canyon.

MarcSouth Africa · Apr 9, 2023 10Exceptional
Liked : Oliver's is a small slice of calm and attention to detail. It's a welcome reprieve from the decaying and llitter strewn streets of White River and surrounds. We would highly recommend the food and very warm hospitality

MorrisonSouth Africa · Jun 15, 2025 9Exceptional
We enjoyed our stay and the beautiful setting as well as the sumptuous meals.
Liked : The room was large, beautiful, and with all amenities. The food was excellent as always. Parking is close to the room and the gardens are neat.
Disliked : It is not acceptable to only have access to a substantially reduced number of DSTV channels. The TV is too old to allow internet access.
The inlet and outlet to the bath were broken - this requires basic maintenance. -
EtelvinaMozambique · Mar 12, 2025 9Exceptional
Restful and relaxing
Liked : It is quiet, well organized and excellent service. The breakfast was also great. The garden was beautiful and I enjoyed walking around it.
Disliked : There were limited channels on TV. We ended up watching Lesotho TV.

Super fun stay for golfers
Liked : The staff was so friendly and they literally had a golf Buggy brought to our garden for our tee time at white river, which was a fun course to play. Amazing restaurant. Overall a great experience and we would love to come back.

DlamsSouth Africa · Dec 20, 2024 9Exceptional
Home away from home, peaceful, beautiful pool area, breathtaking garden, m kids loved the LOVE chair
Liked : Location perfect
Breakfast was normal, I appreciate the extra effort the staff put to make my family especially my kids comfortable.Disliked : The carpet was a bit smelly when we checked in, but guess what? The smell was gone the next day.
The gardener watering plants every morning close to our bedroom was a bit uncomfortable for me cause I enjoyed opening the sliding door to let fresh air in, since it was hot I could barely stay dressed. 🙃 -

Liked : Very comfortable room, marvellous food and exceptional staff. Would love to return.
Disliked : Nothing - faultless
