Lovely stress free stay at short notice with little other availability in the area. The booking and stay was very quick and without any problems, which was much appreciated since we actually checked out of another property that was one of our worst stays ever! Thank you for the quick, easy check-in!

Fantastic- definitely will visit there again. There was so much for myself and the girls. We had visitors all the time including bush pig, nyala, warthogs, ground squirrels, mongoose and monkeys. The entertainment area is great allowing mom some down time. The horse riding was thoroughly enjoyed and the girls kept everyone entertained on the night drive. We saw the elephants, rhino and aardvark. So many wonderful memories made.

Peaceful, quiet, value for money. The house was pretty clean, but there were wasps inside the house. Certain lights did not work. There were no tongs available and unfortunately the fridge froze all our food. There was boiling hot water to shower in. If you want to visit the Mabalingwe area during the rainy season, consider booking a "game drive" as many of the roads are not accessible for small sedan type cars.

Rustig, stil, waarde vir geld. Die huisie was mooi skoon, maar daar was wel perdebye binne in die huisie. Sekere ligte het nie gewerk nie. Daar was nie 'n braaitang beskikbaar nie en die yskas het ongelukkig al ons kos gevries. Daar was kokende warm water om in te stort. As jy die Mabalingwe-omgewing wil besoek gedurende die reënseisoen, oorweeg dit om 'n "game drive" te boek aangesien baie van die paaie nie toeganklik is vir klein sedan-tipe karre nie.

Very nice stay. There were some problems with the lock on the door. I asked for a king bed, but there were two single beds next to each other. Other than that, everything was perfect.

Baie lekker gebly. Daar was 'n paar probleme met die slot by die deur. Ek het gevra vir 'n king bed, maar daar was twee enkelbeddens langs mekaar. Verder was alles perfek.

Mabalingwe's nature is beautiful but the place itself needs renovation. I would recommend Mabalingwe, but I still feel there were shortcomings. I emailed the owner and to this day have not received a reply. Our unit was not very clean. We had to ask for a second wine glass and toilet roll, and we only had one face towel (we were 2 ladies). There were also no large bowls to mix salad in, and no bottle opener. I was also unsure of what standard amenities to expect - there was no soap available and we weren't advised to bring any. The public areas were severely lacking in recliners and cushions, and we were told that the cushions had been moved to the hot water pool. The place itself is beautiful, but the service is lacking.

Mabalingwe's natuur is pragtig maar die plek self kort opknapping. Ek sal Mabalingwe aanbeveel, maar ek voel tog daar was tekorte. Ek het die eienaar ge-e-pos en tot vandag toe nie 'n antwoord gekry nie. Ons eenheid was nie baie skoon nie. Ons moes vra vir 'n tweede wynglas en toiletrol, en ons het net een gesigshanddoek gehad (ons was 2 dames). Daar was ook geen groot bakke om slaai in te meng nie, asook geen bottelopmaker nie. Ek was ook onseker oor watter standaardgeriewe om te verwag - daar was geen seep beskikbaar nie en ons was nie aangeraai om saam te bring nie. Die publieke areas was ernstig tekort aan leunstoele en kussings, en ons was aangesê dat die kussings na die warmwater-swembad geskuif is. Die plek self is pragtig, maar die diens skiet tekort.

Nice to see wildlife. Unfortunately not elephants. Very basic unit. But well priced. Toilet leaks on floor. Take your own barbecue grill.

Lekker wild gesien. Ongelukkig nie olifante nie. Baie basiese eenheid. Maar goed geprys. Toilet lek op vloer. Vat maar jou eie rooster vir braai.

Resort was very nice, not unit. The unit needs a lot of maintenance. It wasn't cleaned well, ceiling fan doesn't work, and there are wires hanging open from lights that are out. There is no outside light at the table on the stoep so that one can sit and eat there. Also not mentioned is that 2 plate stove and sink sit outside the unit. No lights/flashes are provided for load shedding.

Oord was baie lekker, nie eenheid nie. Die eenheid het baie instandhouding nodig. Dit was nie mooi skoon gemaak nie, dakwaaier werk nie, en daar hang drade van ligte wat uit is oop. Daar is geen buitelig by die tafel op die stoep sodat mens daar kan sit en eet nie. Daar word ook nie genoem dat 2-plaat stoof en opwas buite die eenheid sit nie. Geen ligte/flitse word voorsien vir beurtkrag nie.

Very calm. The units are very outdated and an upgrade will definitely need to be done. Some of the kitchen necessities were not there, e.g. a braai tong and braai bowl.

Baie rustig. Die eenhede is baie verouderd en 'n opgradering sal definitief moet gedoen word. Van die kombuisbenodigdhede was nie daar nie, bv. 'n braaitang en braaibak.
