Nothing!

Everything was perfect! It is a beautiful, quiet place and the animals came right up to see us. On one of the days we had a giraffe and baby and 5 other giraffes visit. The kids loved the place and pool. The pool was a really good size and the kids enjoyed it so much. Nils helped us organise our game drives. Best stay in the bush, so relaxing and exceeded our expectations. The house had everything we needed, gorgeous touches of luxury and comfy beds. Aircon was blissful. Thank you!

There were a few electrical issues along with a couple of plumbing problems, but these were resolved quickly and without much hassle during the stay.

The privacy afforded by the remote location is brilliant. The layout of the outdoor facilities is excellent. Continual animal foot passage was an absolute treat.

Pata Pata is a perfect house in the middle of the bush. We enjoyed the tranquility and peaceful atmosphere. The house has everything one needs for a pleasant stay. Highly recommend paying this gem a visit.

I loved the open layout of the house! It was bright and spacious and tastefully decorated. Liresa was phenomenal and attended to our every need! Thank you for such a memorable experience! We will definitely be back!

We loved everything! A washing machine and tumble drier would be a great asset at the house if one stay as long as we did. The laundry in the area was fully booked every day. We found a laundry in Komatipoort though.

Our 10 day stay at Pata Pata was magical. We loved everything but mostly the kind owner Nils and host Leresia. When we walked inside for the first time it looked far better than on the photos. I immediately relaxed. Thank you for everything. We miss Pata Pata already. We miss that stunning pool and all our animals. Wow we daily had quite a lot of animals visiting us. From giraffe to kudu and zebras and many more. Lots of birds and we saw those cute bush babies at night when we fed them bananas. Loved the attention to details in the house and how comfortable we were. We really felt spoiled especially with the state of the art solar system that Nils installed, a cold aircon and fans even outside the house. The solar system brought some relieve especially during stage 6 load shedding. Loadshedding in SA is a real pain but Nils tried his best to make his guests stay as comfortable as possible during loadshedding. Once we figured out how to utilise the solar system best during loadshedding it brought some relieve indeed. Oh and we had the best wifi by far! Talk about being spoiled. We relaxed and relaxed and made lots of beautiful memories over the 10 days we stayed at Pata Pata. Thank you so much Nils.

A lot more animals - even om the terrace - than expected. Overall, the property is brand new with a great minimalistic and comfortable style.

no complaints! just some friendly advice for other guests: - don’t use the west road to enter, it is washboard gravel - related to that, it’s worth taking something with ground clearance (SUV 4x4) - stock up during the day! the shops close very early. - beware of the animals, especially when it comes time to leave, the monkeys seem to sense when you need to take the bins out!

just had a wonderful weekend there, the property is beautiful! wonderful location, go to the Kruger view restaurant during the day, make sure to order the welcome pack and keep topped up on hay! we had so much wildlife surround us all day, whilst having a swim. don’t let the fire pit go unused either. the house is full equipped with everything you may need as well so don’t feel you have to come packed to the nines with utensils and the likes. the only disappointment was we couldn’t stay longer! friendly staff, great experiences and a fantastic view make this a must stay property!

The host team is amazing - helpful and accommodating to the very end. The property is a leisure dream spot. The animals, the view of nature in the morning. The facilities and the serenity that surrounds them is amazing. It's worth every cent!

Beautiful property with a relaxing atmosphere. Great spot the many local wild animals visit if you provided some animal pellets

Nothing

Absolutely stunning house and deck area. The pool and the lapa are amazing. And the animal interactions were out of this world. Huge male kudu, giraffes galore, warthogs, impala, zebra and the bushbabies at night. It's ever better than the photos. Do not hesitate - book this place now!

Unfortunately loadshedding was a pain but that's beyond anyone's control

The accommodation was very comfortable and clean. The wild animals that came every day to the house was a brilliant experience my child absolutely loved feeding them the pellets. The swimming pool was heavenly after all the activities we done.

The kitchen area is a little dark

Beautiful simple house design.

Absolutely nothing. If there are any suggestions at all, perhaps more lighting in the driveway for when you arrive back in the evenings. Otherwise our stay was phenomenal

We were greeted by a family of giraffes on arrival, and soon after a couple of warthogs and kudu. The deck made us feel safe as the animals were at a good distance. The lodge was very cozy and had everything we needed. The hosts were fantastic too. An incredible stay, our only regret was that we didn't stay longer.

The animals on your doorstep, and the princess beds.

The perfect family get away.We especially enjoyed interacting with the animals.Will definitely be staying here again

Please add another light in the kitchen. It's tough at twilight til your eyes adjust, and the car port is a long way from the house after dark.

This is a fantastic property. The most animals we have seen in our Marloth trips. Generally 7 Giraffes for Breakfast, even a visit from a hungry wildebeast. Lovely place - very secure - great pool.
