    We brought Doom and mosquito spray per the hosts’ recommendations and they came in handy as there are not bed nets (though AC units in rooms also help with mosquitoes).

    This is a wonderful, family-friendly house! The fenced deck was perfect for our young kids to play and see animals while staying contained and safe. Lovely boma area with lights at night, a braai and fire area. Kitchen has good kitchenware- sharp knives, pans in good condition. No load shedding during our stay but they have a solar backup system if needed. The house is located walking distance from a nice viewpoint at the river. Great location from which to take bike rides or walks on the paths by the river. About 30min to Crocodile Gate for day trips into Kruger. Groceries and essentials about 10min drive or 15minute bike. The house was well supplied with soap, garbage bags, etc for our 4 day stay. We were so happy we chose this house among the many great options in Marloth Park. Would love to return!

    We had the most amazing time at this property. Really worth every penny. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed. Great location, easy to find and close to supermarket. Great place to unwind and sit back and enjoy the nature. Karin was so friendly and helpful and stayed in contact with us throughout our stay make sure we have all our needs met. The animals came to the house so often we didn't even want to leave the house. It was just such an experience seeing these animals so close up. We loved hanging out in the pool and Braai (BBQ) in the boma and outdoor fireplace. We would definitely stay there again, when we visit South Africa. I left a piece of my heart there for sure.

    We got a little bit lost because of the network signal. When trying to call the person who's supposed to give us the key. She wasn't very understanding nor helpful

    The facility was clean,had everything you could need to be comfortable. From cooking to braaing and baking.

    Include someone to clean the house as is time consuming

    They must have more common restaurants e.g Wimpy

    I understand it’s a nature conservation area but they are too strict on the noise. Makes the stay uncomfortable. Also, we got there when it was raining, the gravel road was bad for a small car.

    Everything is perfect. The house has everything you need. Nice and cosy. Has board games 😄. Neat and clean. Has a lot of space. Definitely worth the money.

    There was nothing to dislike.

    The house is absolutely stunning!!! It's clean, fully furnished, and has everything that you need. You literally have to bring yourself, clothes and food. Everything else you need is there. Loved waking up to the animals around us. We had giraffes right outside our house, which the kids loved. While swimming, we'd have a visit from Mr Old Warthog, Impala, Honey Badger and a bushbaby. We wouldn't get bored at night. Plenty of boardgames and even my 3 year old had a toy box that she raided in the house. There's even a feeding chair/booster seat for the little ones and a cot on request. I didn't have to pack any of those. Any dirty clothes, throw them in the washing machine and they even provide the detergent pods. The same with the dishwasher. Plenty of pots (all shapes and sizes), cutlery, crockery, etc. There is nothing you'll miss from home, EVERYTHING is provided. There was even a potjie pot. Loved that the drive to Kruger was so short, about 15mins. And we saw plenty of animals just not the lions but it was worth it. We did a self drive. If you're looking for tranquility, this is the place to go. You're fully in the bush, and you get the full experience. Worth every cent!!!!! I will definitely be back here, it was amazing!!!! Thank you Karin for the excellent service. You were literally a call/WhatsApp away. Ready to answer any of my questions before the trip and when we arrived.

    Shower temperature a bit difficult to control if more than one bathroom is used simultaneously, but this was very minor.

    Stunning location, excellent facilities. Super clean and tidy, well equipped. Perfect for a family trip away and nice distance from entry to Kruger. Nice to be able to feed the animals right from the pool/balcony & it felt very safe.
