Awesome, relaxing & quiet. Would be great if the owners could invest in an inverter. And have matches/ lighters availabile in the house.

Very nice except for the fire that knocked things over. We could not stay at Mingwe Private Game Lodge as there was no power and water, after confirming that everything was in order. We were then accommodated at Itaga View. Although it was very nice and tidy, the three levels were not practical for a family with small children. Furthermore, the next morning we could not get the Trelidoor open as the key was not on our bunch of keys. This is a major concern if one has to evacuate the room quickly for whatever reason. When I called the owner, she hung up and left a message, "I'll call you back", which has not happened until now.

Baie lekker behalwe die brand wat dinge omver gewerp het. Ons kon nie by Mingwe Private Game Lodge oorbly nie aangesien daar nie krag en water was nie, nadat ons bevestig het dat alles in orde is. Ons is toe gehuisves by Itaga View. Alhoewel dit baie mooi en netjies was, was die drie vlakke nie prakties vir 'n gesin met klein kinders nie. Verder kon ons die volgende oggend die Trelidoor nie oopkry nie aangesien die sleutel nie op ons bos sleutels was nie. Dit is 'n groot bekommernis as mens vinnig die kamer moet ontruim vir watter rede ookal. Toe ek die eienares skakel, druk sy die foon dood en stuur 'n boodskap, "I'll call you back", wat tot nou toe nie gebeur het nie.

Easy to get to, beautiful lodge with amazing view and rooms. Easy access to game viewing and other facilities. Overall great stay, a beautiful and accessible spot. The game rangers were better than expected. The food and service at the restaurant were good. Two small hints: the map from reception is numbered with the prefix 7 when it should be 6, i. e our unit was 621 but on the map, it was 721. On our last day, our checkout was at 10 but the cleaning lady arrived at 7:30, it's preferable especially on check out that she arrives at 10 or later.

Thank you, Jerome. So sorry about the cleaner arriving early. It was not the intention to make you feel that you needed to check out. It was just logistics as the cleaning company has various drop-offs in the mornings and Mingwe happens to be second on the list. The housekeeper would have been happy to wait until check out to start her duties. We hope you visit us again in the near future. It was lovely hosting you.

Dankie, Jerome. So jammer oor die skoonmaker wat vroeg opgedaag het. Dit was nie die bedoeling om jou te laat voel dat jy moet uitcheck nie. Dit was net logistiek aangesien die skoonmaakmaatskappy verskeie aflaaie soggens het en Mingwe toevallig tweede op die lys is. Die huishoudster sou graag tot uitklok gewag het om haar pligte te begin. Ons hoop jy besoek ons weer in die nabye toekoms. Dit was heerlik om julle te huisves.

Not value for money. House looks old and neglected. We didn't have hot water, and the manager didn't come back to me until later. I didn't get instructions of where the key is. We locked ourselves out of two of the rooms and were told there were no spare keys and we had to sort it out ourselves. Luckily we were able to get the doors open. The barbecue is rusted, the dishwasher leaks and the furniture looks dilapidated. The place does not look at all like in the photos.

Nie waarde vir geld nie. Huis lyk oud en verwaarloos. Ons het nie warm water gehad nie, en die bestuurder het eers later teruggekom na my toe. Ek het nie instruksies gekry van waar die sleutel is nie. Twee van die kamers het ons onsself uitgesluit en daar was vir ons gesê daar is nie spaarsleutels nie en ons moet dit maar self uitsorteer. Gelukkig kon ons die deure oopkry. Die braai is geroes, die skottelgoedwasser lek en die meubels lyk vervalle. Die plek lyk glad nie soos in die fotos nie.

Hi Cecile. Unfortunately, we cannot agree. You have locked yourselves out of 2 of the 4 bedrooms. I mentioned to you that if we had to send someone out or have a locksmith come out the cost would be yours because there were no spare keys for the rooms. No one suggested you sort it out yourself, only that there would be a cost involved. The furniture is newly upholstered.

Hi Cecile. Ons kan ongelukkig nie saamstem nie. Julle het julleself uitgesluit uit 2 van die 4 slaapkamers. Ek het vir jou genoem dat as ons iemand uitstuur of 'n locksmith moet vra om uit te kom die koste vir julle sak sal wees omdat daar nie spaarsleutels vir die kamers was nie. Niemand het voorgestel julle sorteer dit self uit nie, slegs dat daar 'n koste verbonde aan sal wees. Die meubels is nuut gestoffeer.

The location was very beautiful, but the customer service was terrible. There was no water when we arrived, and the manager failed to inform us about this. Our children could not use the toilet or take a shower for a day and a half. Additionally, some of the lights in the rooms were not working.

Hi Niyoka The park had a fire and some infrastructure was damaged. It was not within our control. It has since been restored. Neither the owner or agent could have known that the reserve would take a day to restore the water supply. We are all reliant on the management team of the greater reserve. Most properties experienced similar difficulties.

Hallo Niyoka Die park het 'n brand gehad en sommige infrastruktuur is beskadig. Dit was nie binne ons beheer nie. Dit is intussen gerestoureer. Nie die eienaar of agent kon geweet het dat die reservaat 'n dag sou neem om die watertoevoer te herstel nie. Ons is almal aangewese op die bestuurspan van die groter reservaat. Die meeste eiendomme het soortgelyke probleme ondervind.

Sal enige tyd weer bespreek vir 'n plekkie. Dienste is uitstekend. Verblyf is baie netjies. Ag als was net 100%.

We enjoyed a wonderful weekend in your beautiful house with its beautiful view. It was a very nice relaxing weekend. I only wish we could have stayed longer, 2 nights was definitely not enough!

Ons het 'n wonderlike naweek geniet in julle pragtige huis met sy pragtige uitsig. Dit was 'n baie lekker ontspannende naweek. Ek wens net ons kon langer bly, 2 aande was beslis nie genoeg nie!

Beautiful forest house. Nice space to hang out and privacy for each room.

Pragtige boshuis. Lekker spasie om saam te kuier en privaatheid vir elke kamer.

Very comfortable, safe and well equipped. The house has a great location and it's safe and comfortable for families and small kids.

Baie gerieflik, veilig en goed toegerus. Die huis is in 'n puik ligging en is veilig en gerieflik vir gesinne en klein kinders.
