The Location was great and it was easy to communicate with the owner.

There was plenty we did not like. The worst property we have ever stayed at in Marloth Park. The house was not properly cleaned, The day we arrived the cleaners daughter's(NOT GRACE) and a man were lounging on the veranda, smoking and drinking. The kitchen cupboards were crawling with cockroaches because it has not been cleaned inside for a long time. There were only 2 AC's in two of the bedrooms, the house was extremely hot in the entertainment areas. When I asked the Lettie why the towels that's been used for 5 days I left in the corner were not replaced I was told that I should specifically ask for it to be replaced as well as the bedding. None of the rooms or bathrooms had keys for the doors, so no privacy. There were no kitchen cloth left to clean the kitchen so I had to buy my own, I came back on the 2nd day, after the house were cleaned and it was taken, so I bought 3 new clothes again, that also was taken. I phoned the cleaner and she was not nice at all telling me I left the kitchen too dirty. Now, that's one thing you don't say about me...please go read all the reviews owners left me and how impressed they are with how clean I leave their properties. Listen, I feel bad for writing a bad review but unfortunately I need to. Carol the owner need to get a cleaning company that improves her property, not other way around.

"Magical Bush Retreat"

10.0

Absolutely fantastic location and definitely a real rustic feel which is what I was looking for. We enjoyed our game viewing from the deck and. Had fantastic family meals around the fire. The lodge had all we needed and we were very comfortable. We made some great memories and hope to one day return! Thank you.

Some small chipped mugs and leaky tap in the upstairs bathroom but nothing that would set is off or that can't be replaced.

"Nice quiet river location."

7.0

Comfortable large house. Nice quiet location with river view. Good bush baby, impala, warthogs, banded mongoose, & Genet visits.

The entire property needs a good thorough clean, bathrooms & inside cupboards need a good scrub. Ice making machine was very dirty & moldy I had to give it a good clean before use. I suggest you address this with your cleaning service provider as I heard they spend just on an hour to clean which is clearly not enough.

"A well stocked holiday home with a view!"

10.0

The location was absolutely stunning with the deck overlooking the crocodile river. The house itself was well stocked with all items we could have needed, and were practically situated. The caretaker and the cleaning staff were absolutely incredible with the speed they work, but also the friendliness. The beds were comfortable, and mosquito nets were provided. The gas stove and braai area made cooking during load shedding very easy, and the dishwasher was a must have! The bathrooms and bedrooms were well cleaned and maintained. Everything you could want in a holiday home is provided from ice machine to boma area to lots of comfortable seating and a lovely well maintained pool. We had a memorable week here!

The one bathroom had drainage issues which made showering in the one shower slightly difficult. The app indicates that there is air conditioning but this is only present in two of the bedrooms and even with fans it was very hot in the other bedrooms without it.
