The fact that we had to drive 30min to the game drive and 30min back was pretty ridiculous. The activities being so far away from the lodge is not pleasant at all

It’s secluded, the views

The gravel roads as I drive a small car. I think it’s advisable to note it on the website so that people can decide on the mode of transportation

Everything was perfect, the Bush surrounding the place was so peaceful. The pictures on the website don't do justice to this place, it's very beautiful and well kept.

The road leading up to place was terrible especially because we traveled with a small car, so I recommend that people use a big car to go to the place. The wifi didn't connect in our room it only worked when we were by the pool area.

The place is beautiful and Martha was lovely. The views are exceptional. The architecture is well thought out to allow for natural light. Consider adding a light above the mirror in the entry way. Everything was very modern and we were provided with all amenities.

The drive up the Boekenhout path has huge rocks on the gravel road, you wouldn't make it without an SUV or at least a crossover and we weren't warned beforehand. The swimming pool is always freezing. A thermal pool cover would be a great investment. We did see some game but definitely no big 5, even on the game drive. Giraffe only.

Very Beautiful Property. Lucky that we saw Impala’s outside our chalet.

1. We stayed in Chalet 2 and received our self check in via WhatsApp from what I’m assuming is the owner, however after checking in, the care taker lady was asking multiple questions about how we got the code etc, went as far as to ask, who was it that sent me the code, requested to take a picture of my phone, to send to whoever she was on the phone with, I had to explain how I checked in. Very weird and made me uncomfortable. 2. The WiFi does not reach Chalet 2. 3. The pool is communal however, if there is a family booked into the main house, it is uncomfortable to go and swim, as the pool is linked to the main house. (This was my personal experience)

The view and the facilities

I feel like the would have told us the do's and donts because there are animals around. We weren't sure if we can talk a stroll as the sun sets.

Everything was perfect. The pool, the views, the rooms and the fireplace were all perfect!!

Nothing.

What we loved the most was the views and scenary, the pictures are amazing but when we were physically at the place, it was more than what we expected. The place exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this place for anyone who would like to be around nature and just unwind. This place was amazing, 💯 star rate

The location and accommodation surpassed our expectations. The chalet was incredible, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding bush. One of the highlights for us was the outdoor shower. The reserve offers amenities such as game drives and a spa, which we thoroughly enjoyed.

The gravel road was a bit rough, so an SUV or Bakkie is recommended. We encountered some issues with ants in the unit. Despite bringing wood as instructed, there was no fireplace in the unit we stayed in.

We loved every moment. It's peaceful and quiet and the staff was very friendly. It's also very beautiful.

Our small car really struggled on the gravel road but besides that everything was amazing. Next time we will use the main entrance of Mabalingwe Resort.
