    We traveled from Johannesburg to Richards Bay for a funeral. The price was reasonable and the unit was of a high standard. Will definitely book MaBella in the future again. Thank you to our host.

    I booked the room, when I arrived there they said they were fully booked and I asked them to refund me, they agreed and did EFT , to my surprise they reversed the payment that had never been cleared on my account. I'm very disappointed and upset about their behaviour. I need my money back please
