Tranquil bush cabin in Sodwana Bay Lodge Resort - House 62

Sodwana est une petite ville tranquille bons spots pour la plongée La maison était sûrement splendide il y a 20 ans mais manque cruellement d entretien. Le complexe en lui même est très agréable et bien entretenu. Il y a un club de plongée sur place. La maison est très spacieuse. Elle a une grande terrasse calme sur la forêt.

L’accès n’est pas facile il faut un 4x4 car il y a du sable mou. Il y a soit une pe te non aménagée soit un très long ponton en bois pour y accéder. Les boiseries et huisseries sont très très abîmés. Certains carreaux de fenêtres sont cassés. Les filtres des clims n’ont pas été nettoyés depuis des lustres, les chaises longues sont sales et seulement au nombre de 4. On ne peut pas dîner en intérieur. Les canapés sont inconfortables. Il n’y a pas de verres à vin. Une partie de la terrasse est inaccessible balisée avec du rubalise car dangereux. On ne peut pas accéder au séchoir à linge. Le bac à douche d une des chambres n’a toujours pas été changé alors que le problème a déjà été signalé.

All amenities were there. Comfy beds.

The parking was very sandy and a small car could not come into the entrance. There were no signages to say the vehicle must park on the top end far away from the house. We were stung by wasps under the building.Too much of dust from the thatch and we found crawling insects on the bed. The photos looked like the pool was in the yard

The place was really comfortable with the large lounge and patio; all set in a wonderful forest area. It was super quiet with great bird life and buck roaming

Nothing

It felt like home away from home

Nothing

Loved the location and the layout out of the cabin

This was one of the more terrible experiences I have had at any hotel, lodge, resort. Two specific incidents compromised my stay.

Firstly your cleaning lady was extremely unprofessional and not understanding that this is my vacation break and this is not cheap accommodation. When you book a four bedroom accommodation every single room should be cleaned not left dirty with covers on beds with dust and sand through out the place. The kitchen containers were not in the accommodation when we arrived on the 2nd day your cleaning lady returned with a bag of containers and cutlery of the accommodation. Despite this I would have given you a 6. The second incident is why you are getting a 1 your pool was being renovated with a new deck which is truly lovely. However the contractor “the baas” that sits and watches the labour do the work thought he has the right to tell me how to use the pool and what I can keep around me while glaring at me. When other guests who are the same race as your contractor who were not meant to be there as they are not paying for access to the private pool section he said they can do what ever they want. I despise incompetence but i more specifically hate dumb racism. I wish you all the worst and know that you will get what you deserve based on your own actions and of those you associate with.
