Perfect location. 24 hour security.

The perfect base close to the town centre. Can explore the whole town on foot. Booking was a breeze.

Beste naweek breek ooit, Cape Vidal, boot ritte, al die wild.

Meeste van die goed in die woonstel val uitmekaar, die yskas, die braai buite, die stort lek. Maar oor die algemeen het ons baie lekker gebly.

Best weekend break ever, Cape Vidal, boat trips, all the wildlife.

Most of the things in the apartment are falling apart, the fridge, the barbecue outside, the shower leaking. But overall we had a very nice stay.

Weer het goed saamgewerk, was lekker warm, pluspunt was geen loadshedding gehad vir die hele naweek nie.

Ek sal vir seker weer gebruikmaak van 23 Manzini, ons het heerlik gebly en als was skoon en netjies gewees met aankoms. Die mense het Saterdagoggend ingekom en weer kom skoonmaak. Ek sien uit na 'n volgende kuier by 23 Manzini.

Weather cooperated well, was nice and warm, plus was no loadshedding for the whole weekend.

I will definitely use 23 Manzini again, we had a wonderful stay and everything was clean and tidy on arrival. The people came in on Saturday morning and came to clean again. I look forward to my next visit to 23 Manzini.

Perfect if you are using it as a base.

The accommodation is comfortable, so perfect if you want to cater for yourself and want to use it as a base to visit various places in the area like we did. It is on the smaller side, so just large enough for the 4 of us, but would not have been able to spend the whole day indoors with the kids. The big pool was an added bonus that my kids absolutely loved and was great to be able to jump in when we were back from outings. We will definitely be back.

Good location. Value for money, however there was no hot water to shower, the ventilation unit did not work and the TV only showed 1 station - soccer.

No hot water, no Wi-Fi, no TV signal and very poor cooling during warm stay.

Baie lekker gebly.

Die chalet is goed ingerig met alles wat jy sal nodig hê, ons het lekker gebly en sal beslis weer so maak. Dankie aan Colin vir al sy moeite oor die Covid-tydperk, hy het ons elke keer te gemoed gekom as iets voorval. Die skoonmaakdiens by die chalet self was ook baie goed.

Gerieflik, pragtige natuurskoon, lekker gebly.

Sleutels en plek maklik bekombaar. Gerieflik en mooi binne-in. Personeel baie behulpsaam. Daar is die gevaar van seekoeie en ratels wat in die aand rondloop. Daar is 'n wag wat in die aand tussen huisies rondloop en kyk daarvoor en mens waarsku. Pragtige tuine oraloor. Naby winkels ens. Naby Cape St Vidal met sy pragtige wildtuin met baie diere. Ons het dit baie geniet.

Comfortable, beautiful nature, had a good stay.

Keys and place is easily accessible. Comfortable and beautiful inside. Staff very helpful. There is the danger of hippos and badgers that walk around at night. There is a guard that walks among the houses at night to look out for it and warn people. Beautiful gardens everywhere. Close to shops etc. Close to Cape St Vidal with its beautiful game park and lots of animals. We enjoyed it a lot.

Welverdiende vakansie

Die slaapkamer se dakwaaier werk nie te lekker nie as gevolg van die dakbalke. Dit is egter nie 'n probleem nie (was nie vir ons nie)m omdat die lugverkoeler die hele woonstel afkoel.

A well-deserved holiday

The bedroom ceiling fan doesn't work too well because of the roof beams. However, this is not a problem (wasn't for us)m because the air conditioner cools the whole apartment.

Wonderlike wegbreekplekkie, goed toegerus, loopafstand van winkels en eetplekke.

Was mal oor die rustigheid, weg van gejaag af. Natuur is ongerep, met baie besienswaardighede. Cape Vidal is 'n móét om te gaan sien. Sal definitief weer daar gaan kuier. Baie dankie aan LekkeSlaap ─ dit was 'n fees.

Skoon, netjies, lekker gerus.

Ouma en oupa wat kleinkinders uitgevat het. Ons het lekker gebly. Swembad is groot pluspunt, veral vir kinders. Al wat negatief is, was harde musiek van buurwoonstelblok (nie Pumba's Den) nader aan dorpsenter, tot baie laat aand, na 12 uur.

Clean, neat, comfortable.

Grandmother and grandfather who took out grandchildren. We had a nice stay. Swimming pool is a big plus, especially for children. All that was negative was loud music from neighbouring apartment block (not Pumba's Den) closer to town centre, until very late at night, after 12 o'clock.
