• Lisa Maria (10/5): - Die Unterkunft ist sehr gut ausgestattet. In der Küche findet man alles, was man braucht. Das Bett und die Kopfkissen sind sehr bequem und der Pool ist ein Traum. Absolute Empfehlung.
• Aimee (10/5): Highly recommended stay in the heart of Hoedspruit Wildlife Estate - The property was clean, comfortable, and very well air conditioned Nothing really
• Jared (10/5): -
• Brandon (10/5): Great location, wonderful host, wildlife on your doorstep. Amazing - Cathy is a wonderful host, and a dear soul. Bonus for me was seeing Zebra on arrival (my welcoming party), Impala coming back from dinner, duikers, and got a send-off from a family of wharthogs.
• Patrick (10/5): Wir kommen bestimmt nochmal wieder - Sehr nette Gastgeber, alles top, uns hat es an nichts gefehlt
• Lee (10/5): - This property is an excellent find - situated near the heart of Hoedspruit and yet in a wonderfully quiet and peaceful corner of a leafy estate. Warm and attentive staff and a delight of an owner. Great value for money!
• Stewart (10/5): Amazing - The manager was extremely caring and attentive. She made my son's time there so worthwhile. Thank you
• KLINKERT (8/5): - Location. Peace. Friendly people Everything was fine..
• Peter (9/5): Wonderful lodge in a quiet wildlife estate with friendly hosts and everything you need - Cathy was a friendly and helpful host who immediately made us feel at home. The accommodation is fantastic: spacious rooms, a well-equipped kitchen with everything you might need, a great bathroom with a modern shower, stable WiFi and a lovely terrace where you can spot wildlife while enjoying your morning coffee. The lodge is located inside a peaceful wildlife estate, which adds to the relaxed atmosphere. Shops for groceries and daily essentials are just a short drive away. We really enjoyed our stay and can definitely recommend Mawusi Bush Lodge! Basics like oil, butter or spices, are not provided. We learned that this is standard and didn't affect our rating.
• Jean-luc (9/5): Bon confort - Cet hébergement n était qu une étape d une nuit avant Kruger .Il possède tout le confort attendu pour le prix. Il se situe dans une réserve privée. Bon accueil..Bon restaurant juste en face de la sortie du parc à côté de la voie ferrée La contrainte des contrôles d,'entree et de sortie du parc , vitesse limitée etc.. pour une simple nuit d étape.Notre choix n était peut être pas judicieux mais l établissement n y est pour rien et la nuit a été bonne.
• Dennis (10/5): -
• Kees (9/5): Uitstekende plek - Lodge in groot gebied met Afrikaanse dieren als giraf, kudu, wrattenzwijn en duiker. Erg gastvrije en vehulpzame gastvrouw en nedewerkers. Kan niks bedenken
• Vera Lucia Jursys (10/5): Esqueça tudo que você viu antes, esse é "O LUGAR". - Lugar muito relaxante e tranquilo e seguro. Muitos animais de pequeno porte vieram me visitar. O canto dos pássaros o verde da Savana, tudo muito encantador. Todos foram muito atenciosos comigo em tudo que eu precisei. Obrigada! Não aluguei carro, mas se precisarem há uma empresa que oferece transporte a preços módicos a TROPHY. Os passeios, tanto no Parque Krueger como na Rota Panorâmica são sensacionais. Adorei! Nada a declarar. Adorei tudo.
• Ziegler (8/5): -
• Paul (9/5): A beautiful 3 nights stay in a clean, quiet, comfortable lodge full of wildlife-recommended! - A beautiful lodge set in the heart of the Hoedspruit wildlife estate. Clean, comfortable and very quiet. Tv and wifi if you need it but you could sit outside and watch giraffes, warthogs, duikers, nyalas, kudus and other wildlife walk by or stop for a drink at the small water source.Cathy was so kind and helpful and a great host not overly attentive but there when needed. Hoedspruit town center is minutes away with lots of bars and restaurants but our room had facilities to cook if needed. We will definately use again! Nothing, everything was fine.
• Khoza (9/5): HC , HD, AZM Tzaneen, Cape town - The host was welcoming and friendly. Place was spotless and peaceful Nothing

• Richard (10/5): Prachtige lokatie en warm huis en gastvrouw - Prachtige lokatie waar de dieren ook rondwandelen. Wij hadden de kamer met keuken, woonkamer, eetgedeeltje, slaapkamer en zeer ruime douche. We voelden ons er direct thuis. Goeie airco rn fabs voor de warme dagen ware perfect. Verder alles erop en eraan in en om het huis. Vriendelijke gastvrouw. Bedden waren iets aan de harde kant, maar dat is heel persoonlijk
• Sara (10/5): The perfect place to stay in Hoedspruit - Cathy is the sweetest host and was very welcoming and caring. I stayed at Mawusi for 2 nights and it was perfect. The rooms are spacious and comfortable and there is everything you need for a great stay in Hoedspruit. I will definitely recommend this place around me and will book again when I’m back in town. Thank you !
• Yael (10/5): - A beautiful place inside the Hoedspruit nature reserve. The room was lovely and had everything we needed, and from the garden we could watch animals passing by – amazing! Cathy made all the difference – warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. Truly the best reception we had in South Africa. Thank you, Cathy! We’d love to come back. Really nothing!
• Marie (10/5): Merci Cathy ! 😍 - Emplacement exceptionnel : les chambres sont cosy et face à la nature. Le matin on peut voir les animaux se balader 😍 Cathy est extrêmement gentille, elle a pris grand soin de nous ! Rien à dire, tout était parfait !
