We had a super time at Afri-Ski. Stayed at Bagpackers (ed: backpackers?) with my wife and daughter. The atmosphere there was great; all got on well which is a lucky draw. The staff at the accommodation were efficient and friendly. The same can be said at the slope and ski rental place. Unfortunately, due to extreme strong winds +_ 60 km/hr the main ski lift could not operate for 2 days.
I think it is fantastic to have skiing available in Africa, within a five hr drive from Johannesburg.

Have just spent 4 days at the resort; had a wonderful time and cannot complain about the snow sports or the staff involved in that side of the resort. Wish I could say the same about the housekeeping staff where we stayed in Vail. Our room was dirty, the bedding on the bed stained and shabby, the bathroom stank of sewage, we had no hot water on one of the mornings, the toilet paper was not replaced, the kettle and hairdryer were both broken, the cupboard had two coat hangers which is ridiculous for winter clothing. Additionally, the restaurants in the resort are exorbitant as they have the monopoly. You have no choice; it's pay or starve!

A really awesome venue to learn to ski or snowboard with excellent teaching facilities. Even if you snowboard, in Europe often, Afriski offers a destination where you are able to focus on your skills without all the "big mountain" fuss. The option of different park runs gave me a chance to learn to rail and jump at my own pace. Something I have not been able to do in 4 trips to Europe. Afriski is a must for all snowboarders and a great destination.

.....also great news & of interest to us skiers & resort visitors: the Lesotho government seems to have acknowledged the increase in tourist traffic from SA by investing in and constructing new customs facilities, by enlarging the "Caledonspoort Border" crossing- alleviating some dreadful bottlenecks- come next winter season!
Lately, SA authorities seem to be getting stricter on passport control- dual citizen must only use their SA passport for crossing! Permanent residents with foreign passports are asked to show their SA ID.

Could only manage one 'spur of the moment' skiing weekend (17/18 Aug-13) this year! Resort always fully booked in winter- used a very 'spartan' Oxbow lodge! (~9 km drive, road deteriorated to gravel but under construction)- the only other option- did not book- but lucky! (DB&B was R 1,460 per couple/night this year). AfriSki's accommodation are all based on 'private investors owned chalets'- rental pool- not resort owned.
Skiing, however, always the main attraction though! Snow & Slope in perfect condition- baby slope is sweet & world class to learn on! Intermediate slope is now separated & super safe! Weather dry, hardly any precipitation & water shortage this season - but lower temperatures- allowing enough snow making! Another great improvement and an enjoyable super weekend! Beware of some near unavoidable potholes on the way inside Lesotho! Big rims & tires an advantage!
@ editor: Seefeld, Maribel, Davos, St. Moritz, Tirol, Vail are just some names describing chalets at Lesotho's AfriSki!

First time at Afri-Ski and what you see .. is not what you always get ..
Vail rooms with cement floors....Room door rotten and beds barely big enough for adults..
Items stolen from our room and then eventually our car.
Main restaurant food is too pricey and not satisfactory .
Multiple people were complaining at the pub by the slope..
I can't help but think most "positive comments" are from the resort themselves...
Very pricey trip. R7000.00 om 3-4 days easy... That's a return flight to EU..
Rather invest in a real holiday.

Had another wonderful skiing weekend at Afri-ski. The staff are helpful and very friendly!
The intermediate slope is brilliant for me as a beginner. It allows me to get my confidence up before I go and tackle the main slope.
All in all, a great experience; just need more lodges to stay at, as the driving in and out takes its toll.
Cheers 'till next year!

We enjoyed our stay at Afri-ski tremendously. Staff were very helpful and Cabin Crew solved our problem with hot water within minutes. Staff overall were friendly.
The dinners in the Sky Restaurant were great. Some of the best meals I've had ever!
Ski slopes was well maintained and prepared for the next day every evening. Equipment was in good order.
Generally a positive experience.
