Lidvubu Lodge

1. Bushbabies 2. The place was beautiful 3. Quiet 4. Will def book it again

1. Aircons could only go down until 24°. It was an extremely hot three days. Wished the aircons could be a bit more effective. 2. An ill bushbuck stayed under the house. Was at first very pleased with the company of one so close, however it was not pleasant to see how the bushbuck was suffering. 3. Found a snare behind the house in the veld as big as a rabbit-snare probably. Reported it to the key-manager of the property, but she wasnt stressed about it which was quite distressing as we know the harm snares bring to the animals and in a placw like Marloth, it needs to be reported and taken seriously. We reported to the security at the gate who also just gave is the CPF number to call. Why then have security. 4. We left a night earlier than booked. No one offered to pay us back the night we didnt stay.

Location is good.

The septic tank smell is horrific inside the house after the first night. The frying pans need attention. The lounge suit is very uncomfortable. Swimming pool needs urgent attention (it was green). The gas stove is very unsafe to use as it alighted without switching on the plate.

The location and splashpool

Aircon upstairs did not work

Location

No enough lights outside., dust, no privacy at upstairs rooms. 1 tissue in toilets. Plates are very small in size

Location is almost next to the River, however you need to walk a few meters to see anything along the river. The splash pool also look good but unfurtunatly it was still to cold to swim.

There is no light at the front where you park, so it is very dark when you went for dinner and come home after dark. There is about 5 steps to get inside, so I would not recommend it for elderly people or someone that has difficulty to climb the steps. The main room and one of the other rooms is also at the top, keep it in mind when you are a big group. The ants is a HUGE problem and we were only informed the day of arrival, you can not put anything on the floor or kitchen, even the toilet and shower was full of ants, very very bad, we moved to the top floor the next day just to get away from the ants, luckily we didnt make any food nor took anything, it would be a total disaster if there was food or fruit in the kitchen, I would defnitaly not book again. I feel sorry for the owners because the ants are literaly eating away the structure and floors.
