Lovely place with everything anyone would need, you don't need to bring anything, just food and drinks. The dishes and glasses are good quality. Very comfy , enough space for everyone .Pool is nice. Nice view. Very close to plaaswinkel shop and ingwe restaurant and bar.

Loadshedding , very hot ,no aircon in the rooms, got lost to find the place. Address says no 21, but it's 621. Google maps does not take you to the right location . Pool seems like it needed a bit of a clean. Filled it up with water, but it kept making a sucking noise, but that was not a big issue., it was lovely to cool off

The road to the Lodge was very poor. Also, the kitchen zinc was infested with cockroaches. The right hand showerhead in room 2 bathroom was leaking. Although we had to pay a R2000 breakage deposit, there was no list to check the content of the house.

The photos on the site do not do justice to this property. It far exceeded our expectations since it was much more spacious than what appeared on the pics. The overall layout is excellent and the house is very private. It allows for guests to have their own space as well as being removed from other properties.

There are a few things that need fixing and upkeep, but since it was such great value for money, it would be wrong to highlight these little niggles which did not detract from our stay in any way.

The place very comfortable

Some lights were not working.

House was lovely, loved the location.

No cleaning service and was not advised. Needs a little bit of love and care.

What a fantastic place to have a bush break. The lodge is amazing and well equipped with beautiful views over the reserve. The rooms are beautiful and the beds are super comfortable with nice linen. The layout is perfect with the rooms leading off on a boardwalk from the central lodge.The cleaning service was really nice and the tidied up everything daily. We hired the game vehicle which was really nice to be able to go on drives when we wanted to. Lynette was friendly and helpful and was always available telephonically. This was definitely one of our favourite stays ever.

Nothing

nice and spacious with private rooms

paid a deposit and for a cleaner. the cleaner didn’t turn up with no explanation from the owner after i advised her. was quite inconvenient as we were there with a group of people. when we wanted to cook lunch, there was no gas to use the stove - they came to replace the bottle 2.5hours later with no excuse - had to pay to go eat lunch at the restaurant instead. it is now two weeks after we left and we still did not receive our breakage deposit or money for the cleaner (that didn’t arrive). i have emailed her and she advised 8 days ago she would pay it, but still nothing received

Stunning accommodation. Beautiful views.

Difficult to find once in the reserve

The house was so specious and nice🔥 we had the house for ourself. The owner Lynette she was very nice from start to the end. Luv the house

Not all light were on at night outside. But the excitement made us not to worry.

This was definitely every sent worth and would do it again very soon

The mabalingwe staff picked up my friends purse and took a 1000 before giving it back. asked where we stayed as we were just girls and if we had braai meat for them, they also drove past our house twice at 2 Am making us feel really unsafe and scared

The view and the actual place where we stayed

One of the rooms had white substances in it not sure if it was caused by insects

Location and views were lovely

Property not maintained, shower head lying next to the one shower, bulbs missing from lamps, one shower and lights in bathroom not working, even though reported lights on first day they were not fixed before we left. Water poured from the geyser into the entrance area when we used the shower, response time poor, geyser fixed the following day. Game vehicle which is shown in the pictures is an additional cost, we rented the vehicle but it would not start even after it was “fixed”so we eventually asked for our money back. Rubbish was left in vehicle from a previous user. Infiniti pool was making a lot of noise as water level was very low. We spent most of our break trying to get things fixed, which we did not expect for the rental price.
