Beautiful well-kept accommodation with everything you need. Beautiful and rustic cottage which is well kept and has all the essentials you need to make your stay very comfortable. Hubby really enjoyed the outside shower which is completely private. Gardens are beautiful and the lookout point was a great way to start/end the day with lots of animals at the watering holes. We got to see many animals and even spent some time with two beautiful white rhinos. You can hear the lions and hyenas at night through the absolute silence. If peace and rest is what you are looking for, this is the place to get it.

Peaceful and relaxing. Beautiful location just by the waterhole. Managed to see a variety of animals and birds just sitting on the verandah. Had a stunning time.

Was delicious and value for money for sure. Lived here during son's rugby tour. Close enough to Camp Discovery. Was surprised with a clean and tidy house. Peaceful and quiet environment in the forest. Mattress and pillows - fantastic!

Was heerlik en vir seker waarde vir geld. Het hier gewoon tydens seun se rugbytoer. Naby genoeg aan Camp Discovery. Was verras met skoon en netjiese huisie. Rustige en stil omgewing in die bos. Matras en kussings - fantasties!

Beautiful view over the field. Comfortably equipped. Good service. We stayed in "Hook and Stitch" cottage. The house is situated against the boundary wire and overlooks a waterhole. An elephant walked right by the wire one night. You have a view of the field all the time. The house is comfortably equipped and the air conditioning was a big plus with the intense heat. Also went to cool off in their pool near reception. Debbie and Talent provided excellent service.

Pragtige uitsig oor die veld. Gerieflik toegerus. Goeie diens. Ons het in "Haak en Steek" huisie gebly. Die huis is teen die grensdraad geleë en kyk uit oor 'n watergat. 'n Olifant het een aand reg teen die draad verby geloop. Jy het heeltyd 'n uitsig oor die veld. Die huis is gerieflik toegerus en die lugversorging was 'n groot plus met die geweldige hitte. Het ook gaan afkoel in hul swembad naby ontvangs. Debbie en Talent het uitstekende diens gelewer.

Disappointing stay. Hubby and I stayed at Marulani Bush Lodge for the long weekend. After reading so many positive reviews, we had high expectations and were very disappointed. The accommodation itself was as expected from the photos, and the bed was very comfortable. The major disappointment was the lack of service and hospitality from the owners/hosts. I received a message from Debbie in the morning with a location and when we arrived we were checked in by Talent. I had sent Debbie a message to book a game drive, to which I received no response. I subsequently sent a message to the phone number on the pamphlet in the chalet that the pamphlet says to contact to book a game drive and after not receiving a response by Saturday, I phoned the number only to get "this number no longer exists". The hosts were nowhere to be seen, I am unsure if they were away for the long weekend but if so then guests should be advised of this and given alternative places to book game drives if they are not being offered by Marulani on specific dates. The reception area was also locked and the curtains closed for the entire weekend. Another issue that we noticed was the fire extinguisher that was outside the accommodation. My hubby, out of curiosity, was looking at the fire extinguisher, only to see it was in the red, meaning it would be useless if there were to be a fire. Overall the accommodation itself was good, but the lack of hospitality and response from the owners is the reason we will not be going back to Marulani.

Only the house is used for braai and sleeping. Nice clean place. Quietly grilled on the platter in the evenings that was cleaned daily. 5 nights under the roof on the stoep that entertained us. Couldn't swim, pool grass green. Hot water faucet in the bathroom (sink) did not work. Remote control of air cooling did not work. Very helpful when the power went out and also kept me up to date with the directions and check in at the Lodge.

Slegs die woning gebruik vir braai en slaap. Plek mooi skoon. Rustig gebraai op die skottel in die aande wat daagliks skoon gemaak is. 5 nagapies onder die dak op die stoep wat ons vermaak het. Kon nie swem nie, swembad grasgroen. Warm water kraan in die badkamer (wasbak) het nie gewerk nie. Afstandbeheer van lugverkoeling het nie gewerk nie. Baie hulpvaardig toe die krag afgegaan het en het my ook gedurig op hoogte gehou met die aanwysings en inklok by die Lodge.
