    The rooms are little too close to each other and a little bit too small.

    The host was very friendly and always available to help.

    The pool area needs a bit of attention. A repaint and new chairs would make it nicer and refreshing.

    Loved the friendly visits of the friends from the animal kingdom! Xoli's warm welcoming spirit was absolutely exceptional. She makes you feel at home and takes you through the bush experience. Perfect customer and people skills.

    I waited several weeks for an answer regarding the offered safaris, but then luckily two days before I got an answer and was able to book one. The rooms are very small so if you have a lot of luggage you should organise yourself well. The bathroom could be renewed.

    10 stars go to the host Xolili. She is a very friendly women and she let us to the room even before it was check in time. She gave us a lot of recommendations regarding food and wildlife. The breakfast was delicious (fresh fruits, eggs etc.) and also the to go breakfast was yummy ! The terrace is beautiful because you can spot wildlife. Only 20 mins drive to Kruger. Beautiful pool and BBQ area. The location is wonderful because on your way to dinner you see so many animals passing by like giraffes etc.

    The room was a little smaller than expected, but everything had a specific space contributed to it - like a closet for clothes, a small coffee station, a little stand for your luggage. The house is a communial space, so you will meet other very interesting people, and they will share the kitchen and pool area with you. The hostess made sure everyone was comfy. We were worried about our supplies because the room did not have a small fridge, but the kitchen had a spacious, clean fridge that we shared with the other guests that helped a lot.

    I loved the calm and serene atmosphere. We had a wonderful breakfast every morning, and the animals were not shy to visit the space as well. The hostess was terrific, and she really made a huge effort to tend to all our needs. I loved the Nescafé Coffee Machines and the swimming pool area, and it is definitely a necessity to have an aircon here, which we did, and it ran with no problems at all. I enjoyed the bathroom with the cool shower and bathtub pairing. All cutlery was provided, and the kitchen was well stocked with tools for a braai and glasses and cups, etc. and I really appreciated the ice maker machine in the kitchen! The hostess backed fresh ciabatta bread every morning, which was AMAZING!

    There is no back up for load shedding so it is virtually impossible to see in your room when there is loadshedding, which happens many times a day in South Africa or have a hot beverage.

    Xolile is a gem. She is a great host. always smiling and willing to assist. breakfast was superb.

    The place do not at all look similar to the photos (gallery) on Bookings.com. The rooms are very small and place needs urgent renovation. It is a shared accommodation with other guests so do nor expect a quite weekend breakaway as couple.

    The place is in the african bush. The host Xola was very nice and friendly and made us feel welcome. She is an excellent host.

    My only disappointment was the size of the room and bed. The room was a bit cramped and the bed too small. Being 6 foot tall didn't help either. However the rest of the facilities and location made up for this, as we enjoyed being around the outside fire, being winter. A word of caution to those driving there, regarding the internal roads within the estate which are all gravel, however not well maintained, so a car with a low suspension needs to be cautious. There are also lion which roam around at night. We could hear them during the night. Created at lot of intrigue and thrill to hear them in the wild.

    The surprise at arriving at an eco estate surrounded by wildlife was brilliant. Having visited Marloth Park for the first time was a really great experience. The area is bordering the Kruger National Park,which is alongside the Crocodile river,where the Elephants, Hippos and other wildlife can be easily seen. The lodge itself is well appointed having a lovely pool and boma to sit around the fire as well as being able to braai there. The breakfast was excellent.We even opted for a packed sandwich breakfast as we were visiting the Kruger Park on the one day. The kitchen is fully geared for self catering options if required, with plates, crockery and utensils as well as glasses. There is a fridge available to use. The antelope and buck are so tame that they come right up to the dining area. We bought pellets to feed them from the local store to feed them. The local store and butcher is well stocked and very convenient.
