Lovely location. The wild animals pass by in the mornings and evenings - warthogs, impala, koedoes, bush babies, etc. There are also monkeys and giraffes within the park. It was quite amazing to watch our toddler go crazy over them, but presented a great opportunity to teach respect for nature. Swimming pool really helped.

There was nothing we did not like, the property exceeded our expectations.

Secluded, close to nature, very clean and comfortable, it felt like home away from home.

Kudu and most buck come right to the house. Absolutely amazing for my international friends. Great location and easy to get to. Loved every moment.

The loadshedding was the worst, but out of the owners control

The host was very friendly and accommodating. She allowed us in earlier than the check in time, which was a big plus for me. The house is clean, family friendly and the air-conditioning made the indoor stay so comfortable We loved seeing the animals walking freely around and visiting the house🥰

The pool was dirty, water milky and dirt or something at the bottom. The floor in the house was a bit dirty in places (dust and/or soil) and the bathroom mats were not cleaned it seems. And the showers had some mold.

The animals around, that come to the house. The house is spacious, the kitchen has everything you need. Beds were comfortable. The owners communicated well and we had no problem with collecting the keys etc. The aircon is a big plus. Globally a good place to stay.

We enjoyed our time very much. The house has everything you need. The dishwasher was a blessing. Taryn, the owner was very helpful and answered any questions we had almost immediately. We saw lots of animals right on our doorstep in front of the house. We can certainly recommend Umvangazi Rest.

A lovely location adjacent to the Kruger. Shops available in the park. Large house, well-kept. Game often passed by while we were having a braai at night.

Watching animals walking around the place, that was too awesome

Loved the animals visiting the house. Loved the bushveld theme right through the house. Well equipped with everything you need.

Insect and pest on the loft when it time to sleep can be fixed by spraying the place when it not in use…

Everything, they understood the assignment ☺️

There was an interruption in the water supply. It was, however, communicated and tankers were sent out.

Beautiful location, large house with all the necessities.

Great location, nice and private. The kitchen is fully stocked, has everything you need. Kids loved the pool, can't wait to return to this gem

The list of what is wrong is long. The ants in the entrance are a lot and thorns in the walking areas are a pain. You always have to wear shoes. Simple poison will sort out the thorns you step in the house constantly. The rest rooms is in a state! The main bedroom shower is full of black mould. Not hygienic at all. The guest restroom's toilet is broken, we had to flush it from inside the whole time. No effort to fix it. The bath is for a 1 small child. We have a 3y and 5y old, can't even bathe together. Never seen such a small bath. The shower leaked whole time. The beds were probably the most uncomfortable we slept in. Old and sinks in as you lay down. Aircon works in the main bedroom but not in the guest bedroom. The top stair beds are better for the kids and my niece. BUT, my 3 year old got 3 ticks in the bed. This was very bad and terrifying for us. The kitchen is way too dark and not enough light and full of ants. Old bread was still under the sink. The refrigerator wasn't working well although a big freezer helped. This place never fixes the issues as i read in the guest book. A pity such a nice house is so neglected. Check In was also poor, not clear on exactly what to do. I got to the bush centre where the "lady" booking was extremely rude. Checkout just as rude, if we didn't put the alarm on the alarm Company is going to charge us. Asking for the toilet key for my wife was a big effort! No sense of service.

The location is amazing and the animals that visit are great. Big box freezer was nice. Kids loved to feed them pallets. Kudus, warthog, zebras. Marloth is always warm, even in winter, just not swimming.

We were treating like dishonest people because of something that had nothing to do with us. The owner or agent refused to hear our explanation. On our first night were threatened to be removed and our deposit lost. The linen wasn't clean, it had a bad smell.
