The fact that we had to drive 30min to the game drive and 30min back was pretty ridiculous. The activities being so far away from the lodge is not pleasant at all

Everything was perfect, the Bush surrounding the place was so peaceful. The pictures on the website don't do justice to this place, it's very beautiful and well kept.

The road leading up to place was terrible especially because we traveled with a small car, so I recommend that people use a big car to go to the place. The wifi didn't connect in our room it only worked when we were by the pool area.

The place is beautiful and Martha was lovely. The views are exceptional. The architecture is well thought out to allow for natural light. Consider adding a light above the mirror in the entry way. Everything was very modern and we were provided with all amenities.

The drive up the Boekenhout path has huge rocks on the gravel road, you wouldn't make it without an SUV or at least a crossover and we weren't warned beforehand. The swimming pool is always freezing. A thermal pool cover would be a great investment. We did see some game but definitely no big 5, even on the game drive. Giraffe only.

We loved every moment. It's peaceful and quiet and the staff was very friendly. It's also very beautiful.

Our small car really struggled on the gravel road but besides that everything was amazing. Next time we will use the main entrance of Mabalingwe Resort.

The view and the facilities

I feel like the would have told us the do's and donts because there are animals around. We weren't sure if we can talk a stroll as the sun sets.

The facility was exceptional wow. Very open and you can feel free when moving, the furniture great and view was best.

The road is very very bad, my poor car eish, they need to give it attention. The tar road must have road signs and its curvey and no sign that warn you when you gonna move from the tar road to the gravel that's dangerous. Over and above it was a nice stay.

What we loved the most was the views and scenary, the pictures are amazing but when we were physically at the place, it was more than what we expected. The place exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend this place for anyone who would like to be around nature and just unwind. This place was amazing, 💯 star rate

The property is very stunning and very attractive and the comfort is beyond measure. The privacy is remarkable and the most attractive thing I have experience was that we could see the stars while in bed, that's awesome. To see few of the animals in a day was also remarkable.

I have discovered few cockroaches in the bed side drawers and again under the microwave. I manage to get rid of them with the DOOM provided. Maybe the constant fumigation will upgrade that!! The other thing is the swimming pool where is situated. It was so uncomfortable to use that pool while the main house guests just watching us from their living area. Shoooo that was really awkward and couldn't be there longer. It could have been more comfortable if it was situated behind all those Kuwisa Lodges,it seem more private and user friendly for all guests.

The location and accommodation surpassed our expectations. The chalet was incredible, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding bush. One of the highlights for us was the outdoor shower. The reserve offers amenities such as game drives and a spa, which we thoroughly enjoyed.

The gravel road was a bit rough, so an SUV or Bakkie is recommended. We encountered some issues with ants in the unit. Despite bringing wood as instructed, there was no fireplace in the unit we stayed in.
