- Mandla (8/5): -
- Marek (6/5): prawie przyzwoicie - Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, chwilę jazdy od bramy parku. Stacja benzynowa i restauracja kilka minut od motelu. W naszym przypadku w dniu wyjazdu nie było prądu ani wody co skutecznie utrudniało nam wyjazd.
- Avhurengwi (9/5): Quiet gem - A quiet place, friendly hosts and staff. I liked their outdoor like shower setting.
- mandy (5/5): Niet aan te raden - Pluspunt: dicht bij de ingang van het krugerpark Verouderd, heel gehorig, schimmel in de badkamer, grote kakkerlakken in de kamer en verder geen horen voor de ramen of deuren.

- francine (10/5): - Un endroit formidable. Tout est parfait. La cuisine extérieure très bien équipée. Cette cuisine est une excellente idée. Piscine au top .
Les chats nous ont tenus compagnie et c'était très très agréable. Logement très bien .Bouteilles d'eau et lait à notre disposition. Un très bel endroit, au milieu des plantes et des arbres 🌳.
Merci. Tout parfait.

- Ingrid (8/5): Prima overnachtingsplek. - De prettige buitenkeuken met ruimte om eten klaar te maken en spullen in vriezer en koelkast te zetten.
Kamer was prima.

- Jacques (8/5): - Beautifull place, friendly staff. Well priced. Clean room and clean bedding. Comfortable pillows. What surprised me was the good quality coffee and milk was supplied. The room felt a bit small but for the price it was fine and it was my choice at the end of the day. I will definitely return but next time I will get a bigger room. Nothing negative to stay.
- Sarah (9/5): My stay was great, my kids were comfortable. We enjoyed playing table tennis and swimming in a pool with very clean and - The rooms are so super clean and smells good, and we enjoyed the pool, and was very clean Too much flies
- Mokgaetsi (8/5): The stay was good. - Breakfast was exceptional.. Value for money.
Rooms are nice... But a small closet would be nice. Bathrooms are nice and clean... With hot water all the time. No closer I. The rooms

Tolle Zimmer
Gutes Frühstück
- Linda (8/5): A comfortable, quiet room with all facilities needed. - The host was exceptionally welcoming as we arrived at 19h00 after a problem entering the Kruger National Park.
- Camila (7/5): -
- LAURENT (8/5): Simple mais propre et confortable. - Dans un immense jardin dans lequel le propriétaire cultive de nombreuses plantes, cette grande maison de plein pied propose 5 ou 6 chambres confortables et très calmes.
Les chambres ne sont pas très grandes mais équipées juste avec le nécessaire et sont propres et bien entretenues, la clim et la télé fonctionnent, la salle de bain est petite mais fonctionnelle et propre (mais sans aucun équipement, juste le basic).
Pas ou peu de décoration dans les chambres et les parties communes. Seul petit bémol, les chambres sont très sombres.
La piscine est assez grande (mais non opérationnelle quand nous sommes passés)
Le petit déjeuner servi autour de la piscine est copieux et bon (rien d'exceptionnel).
Plusieurs options de restaurants à moins de 5 minutes en voiture.
Endroit idéal pour passer 1 nuit avant d'entrée dans le parc Kruger (la porte du Parc est à 5 minutes en voiture).
- Frank (10/5): Excellent place to stay - I was upgraded, very clean, very quiet, excellent wifi, nice little garden
- Carla (9/5): Comoditat i proximitat a les portes del Kruger - Proximitat amb phalaborwa gate i el propietari molt amable.
- Léa (9/5): - La piscine était plus qu'appreciable et l'emplacement est à 5min du parc Kruger.
L'accueil était simple et efficace

- Theresa (8/5): Perfect gateway to Kruger - It was the night before heading into Kruger and it was just perfect for that as it’s not far from the gate. Staff was friendly and room was nice.
- Samora (10/5): Peace and quietness is what I needed and I got it in abundance - Overall stay was magnificent. Host was super friendly and went above and beyond to ensure that everything was in order. Nothing
- Luke (10/5): -
- MOETI (9/5): Very comfortable and value for money. -
- patrick (6/5): - De belles photos de présentation mais qui ne correspondent pas vraiment.
- Martin (10/5): - This is a wonderful place to stay over in Palabora. The hosts are exceptionally friendly and welcoming. We arrived quite late in the evening and were greeted with warm smiles; they even lit a fire for us so that we could braai without having to wait too long. The braai and lapa facilities are very nice and well maintained.
The rooms are clean and neat, with well-working air conditioning, which made our stay very comfortable. The hosts truly go out of their way to make guests feel special and at home. We really enjoyed our stay and were treated to a proper breakfast the following morning before we left. I would highly recommend this accommodation.
If you want it shortened for platforms with character limits, I can condense it without losing the key points.
- Andreas (9/5): Gut und günstig - Es war eine sehr gute Lage dicht am Gate,es war ruhig und sicher.Der Garten mit den vielen Pflanzen, Bäumen und Orchideen war phantastisch. Der Pool war sehr warm und sah nicht so sauber aus.

The yard is beautiful and clean with flowers surrounding the place. The toilets and the showers are clean and nice. I love the stay. I didn't like when the electricity went off and they didn't have a backup. They don't put bath soap at the showers.
