Very nice stay. All staff so friendly and helpful. We only stayed overnight. We were treated with great kindness and helpfulness. Overnight stay was very comfortable. Enjoyed the Jacuzzi so much!

Baie lekker gebly. Alle personeel so vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het net oornag gebly. Ons is met baie vriendelikheid en hulpvaardigheid hanteer. Oornag verblyf was baie gerieflik. Het die Jacuzzi so geniet!

Everyone was very friendly and helpful. Just a suggestion: Each bed only has 1 pillow per person and there wasn't an extra blanket in a closet. Not that you normally need extra blankets in Phalaborwa, but there was a cold front. We had a wonderful stay otherwise.

Almal was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Net 'n voorstel: Elke bed het slegs 1 kussing per persoon en daar was nie 'n ekstra kombers in 'n kas nie. Nie dat mens normaalweg ekstra komberse in Phalaborwa nodig het nie, maar daar was 'n kouefront. Ons het andersins heerlik gebly.

Thank you very much for your rating and suggestion, which we will take into consideration. Thank you, again. You are absolutely right, It has been a very cold winter this year, and it has taken us by surprise; we will get hold of more blankets as soon as possible. If you ever come to our area again, it would certainly be a pleasure to welcome and host you. Bush regards, Team Normann Safari/Tine

Baie dankie vir jou gradering en voorstel, wat ons in ag sal neem. Weereens dankie. Jy is heeltemal reg, Dit was 'n baie koue winter hierdie jaar, en dit het ons verras; ons sal so gou moontlik nog komberse in die hande kry. As jy ooit weer na ons area toe kom, sal dit beslis 'n plesier wees om jou te verwelkom en te huisves. Bush groete, Team Normann Safari/Tine

The stay was pleasant and the facilities were good, i.e. braai, etc. The 2 staff members were very pleasant, and the breakfast was nice. The unit needs a good clean: curtains, windows, cupboards, etc.

Thank you very much for your review, we are grateful for your inputs as well! We will definitely address the issue with housekeeping - we are sorry that we were not made aware of it while you were still here, so we could have dealt with it immediately. Hopefully, we'll get the chance to host you again. Kind bush regards, Team Normann Safari / Tine

Nice accommodation in a quiet place in the forest. The chalets are well equipped, but note that there are no televisions. The included breakfast was delicious and freshly prepared. The staff do their best with what is available to them, are helpful and friendly. The swimming pool is very nice and a relief in the heat of the bushveld. I really enjoyed my stay there.

Lekker akkommodasie op 'n stil plek in die bos. Die chalets is goed toegerus, maar let daarop dat daar geen televisies is nie. Die ontbyt wat ingesluit is, was heerlik en dit word vars voorberei. Die personeel doen hulle bes met wat tot hulle beskikking is, is hulpvaardig en vriendelik. Die swembad is baie mooi en 'n lafenis in die hitte van die bosveld. Ek het my verblyf daar baie geniet.

Compliments of the season. Thank you so much for your review and comments. TV isn't a facility, as most of our guests bring their tablets/phones etc., which is why WiFi is included in our rate. We were happy to be your hosts and are glad that you also enjoyed your stay.

Komplimente van die seisoen. Baie dankie vir jou resensie en kommentaar. TV is nie 'n fasiliteit nie, aangesien die meeste van ons gaste hul tablette/fone ens. bring, daarom is WiFi by ons tarief ingesluit. Ons was bly om jou gashere te wees en is bly dat jy ook jou verblyf geniet het.

Breakfast made up for the bad room. The bathroom lights do not work and the bathroom has no doors. The place is a bit tired and not really maintained. The breakfast was really nice.

Ontbyt het opgemaak vir die slegte kamer. Die badkamer se ligte werk nie en die badkamer het nie deure nie. Die plek is bietjie afgeleef en word nie regtig onderhou nie. Die ontbyt was regtig lekker.

Thank you for your review, it's much appreciated. It took us (the owners, stuck overseas due to COVID situation globally) a while to get the incident right, in order for us to reply to your comments, which we definitively would like to apologize for. Apparently the sliding door to the bathroom was handed in for repair, and forgotten, the room you stayed in is with sliding door to make an easier access for disabled (wheelchairs especially). The globes we use in the bathroom are LED, they are not working nicely, so we have changed all of them, not that it will affect your experience, which is unfortunate, and we are sorry about. Kind regards Bjoern & Tine Normann

Dankie vir jou resensie, dit word baie waardeer. Dit het ons (die eienaars, wat oorsee vasgeval het weens COVID-situasie wêreldwyd) 'n rukkie geneem om die voorval reg te kry, sodat ons op jou kommentaar kan antwoord, waarvoor ons beslis om verskoning wil vra. Blykbaar is die skuifdeur na die badkamer ingehandig vir herstel, en vergeet, die kamer waarin jy gebly het is met skuifdeur om makliker toegang vir gestremdes (veral rolstoele) te maak. Die globes wat ons in die badkamer gebruik is LED, hulle werk nie lekker nie, so ons het almal verander, nie dat dit jou ervaring sal beïnvloed nie, wat jammer is, en ons is jammer oor. Vriendelike groete Bjoern & Tine Normann

It was pleasant and peaceful, but throughout the evening our rest was disturbed by noise from the unit closest to the deep end of the pool. The guests in question were extremely loud from about 11pm to 4am. We were on our way to do service in Kruger Wildlife Park, so it was a disappointing start to our project.

Dit was aangenaam en rustig, maar deur die aand was ons rus versteur deur lawaai uit die eenheid naaste aan diep kant van die swembad. Die betrokke gaste was vanaf omtrent 23:00 tot 04:00 uiters luidrugtig. Ons was op pad om diens in Kruger Wildtuin te gaan doen, so dit was dus 'n teleurstellende begin tot ons projek.

Thank you so much for your review, and for staying with us. We do apologize sincerely about the noisy neighbours on the plot next to ours. Unfortunately, they held their party during your stay (usually we can brag with the calm and quiet location in the bush), it was rather difficult, and out our control, to calm them, as their party was not on our premises.

Baie dankie vir jou resensie en dat jy by ons gebly het. Ons vra wel opreg om verskoning oor die raserige bure op die erf langs ons s'n. Ongelukkig het hulle hul partytjie gehou tydens jou verblyf (gewoonlik kan ons spog met die rustige en stil ligging in die bos), dit was nogal moeilik, en buite ons beheer, om hulle te kalmeer, aangesien hul partytjie nie op ons perseel was nie.

Facility was unprepared, untidy and poorly supplied with cutlery, bedding and lighting. Cupboards were full of dust and cobwebs. The management did make an effort to resolve matters, but first impressions remain lasting. The staff were consistently friendly and helpful and dealt with complaints quickly.

Fasiliteit was onvoorbereid, onnet en karig voorsien van eetgerei, beddegoed en beligting. Kaste was vol stof en spinnerakke. Die bestuur het wel toe moeite gedoen om sake te beredder maar eerste indrukke bly maar blywend. Die personeel was deurgaans vriendelik en hulpvaardig en het klagtes vinnig hanteer.
