Tranquility. For £100 for 6 sleepers, it offered tranquility at its best.

Beautiful scenery and wildlife, location perfect. We were booked for Elephant Lodge 253 but stayed in 254. The house is wonderfully spacious, although it needs a lot of maintenance and there were no bowls, tongs etc. not.

Pragtige natuurskoon en dierelewe, ligging perfek. Ons was geboek vir Elephant Lodge 253 maar het gebly in 254. Die huis is heerlik ruim, alhoewel daar heelwat instandhouding nodig is en daar was nie bakke, braaitang ens. nie.

Mabalingwe was excellent. Very nice place for children. Place has a lot of potential, but needs an urgent "upgrade". There wasn't even a tong. Cleanliness was not very good. Kettle can be descaled regularly, you can't even make coffee in it.

Mabalingwe was uitstekend. Baie lekker plek vir kinders. Plek het baie potensiaal, maar kort 'n dringende "upgrade". Daar was nie eers 'n braaitang nie. Netheid was nie baie goed nie. Ketel kan gereeld ontkalk word, mens kan nie eens koffie daarin maak nie.

Stunning setting, disappointing unit. I won't repeat what all the other reviewers have already said. The unit requires attention and maintenance.

Dirty, poor customer service, poor maintenance. The unit was dirty, had a terrible stinky smell like something dead and was only sorted out after the 3rd day of complaining. The interior doors are broken, taps leak, weeds everywhere on the pavement, oven and stove not working properly, one fridge not cooling properly, sofas in poor condition, one in room chewed by rats. Kitchen does not have plastic bowls or bowls with lids. Most of the windows' curtains are in poor condition or not even there anymore. No provision for load shedding. Furniture and boma different than in photos.

Vuil, swak kliëntediens, swak instandhouding. Die eenheid was vuil, het 'n vreeslike stink reuk gehad soos iets wat dood is en is eers na die 3de dag van kla uitsorteer. Die binnedeure is gebreek, krane lek, onkruid oral op plaveisel, oond en stoof werk nie behoorlik nie, een yskas maak nie behoorlik koud nie, banke in swak toestand, een in kamer deur rotte gekou. Kombuis beskik nie oor plastiekbakke of bakke met deksels nie. Meeste vensters se gordyne is in swak toestand of glad nie eers meer daar nie. Geen voorsiening vir beurtkrag nie. Meubels en boma anders as op foto's.

We really enjoyed it. Quiet and user friendly. The hot water was not enough for all of us. Include iron in the room please.

It's a nice place to go to but the unit inside is not clean, and we didn't have much hot water to bath. See stars

Grubby and not maintained. The bones of the house are great, but nothing is maintained and the place was extremely grubby. Unclean linen, grimy toilets, leaky taps and shower doors that were covered in soapscum, just to mention a few. The main entrance door's lock was broken so our unit did not lock, but it didn't matter because the sliding door came off the rail and jammed so we couldn't close it anyways.
