If you’ve been looking for a relaxing getaway that’s close to the Vaal River, but still near all the action, Kaleaba House in Parys might just be your next stop. Whether you’re in town for some peace and quiet, a bit of adventure, or just a break from the chaos of daily life, this guesthouse ticks all the right boxes. Plus, the town of Parys itself is full of charm, lekker food, and things to do. So, let’s get into it.
Why Stay at Kaleaba House?
First off, location. Kaleaba House is just a short drive from the town centre and 100 metres from the Vaal River – close enough to enjoy the river’s soothing sounds, but far enough that you won’t have wet socks when you wake up.

If you’re the type that doesn’t travel light, don’t stress – each room has a closet for all your extra clothes (even the ones you know you won’t wear). And for that extra touch, tea and coffee facilities are included in every room. Because let’s be honest, nobody functions properly before their first cup of coffee.
