Uitstekend!

'n Uitstekende ervaring! Die pragtige slaapplekke is met smaak uitgerus en die diens was uitstekend. Crocodile Sands het 'n vervelige sakereis opgehelder!

Stylvol gemeubileerd, ligging is fantasties.

Ons het vanaf Nelspruit se kant gekom. Ons het die Sabie-pad gevat soos die GPS aangedui het. Vat eerder die Schoemanskloofpad, dis baie korter en sluit die ompad wat langer vat en grondpad is uit.

Stylishly furnished, location is fantastic.

We came from Nelspruit's side. We took the Sabie road as the GPS indicated. Take the Schoemanskloofpad instead, it's much shorter and excludes the detour which takes longer and is a dirt road.

Lekker.

Net die waterpomp wat raas by die plaas oorkant en geen WiFi.

Nice.

Just the water pump making noise at the farm opposite and no WiFi.

Quiet, stylish and clean.

Good accommodation - only problem is the privacy of the bathrooms - the outdoor shower is fenced with wooden posts with a lot of open gaps between the wood which is a problem in terms of privacy when you shower.

Beste oornag oppad of van die Kruger Wildtuin.

Dankie Les en sy span vir 'n heerlike rustige oornag. Die kamers het 'n pragtige uitsig en die diens is puik. Baie skoon en netjies en sal definitief weer oornag.

Best overnight on the way to or from the Kruger National Park.

Thank you Les and his team for a lovely peaceful overnight stay. The rooms have a beautiful view and the service is great. Very clean and tidy and will definitely stay overnight again.

We loved the location.

If you enjoy remote bush places with privacy and nature, this is a place for you. We enjoyed ourselves and some time out. There are network issues at times but good to relax.

Gemaklik en netjies.

Baie oulike plekkie. Kamers is ruim en die buitekombuis is goed ingerig. Daar was wel nie hout beskikbaar om vuur te maak nie. So neem maar saam indien jul wil braai. Toe ek vra oor hout het die man wat ons ingeklok het, gesê - oh we forgot to cut wood for you. Die garage 2 km anderkant die lodge het darem gelukkig hout gehad.

Comfortable and neat.

Very cute place. Rooms are spacious and the outdoor kitchen is well equipped. There was no wood available to make a fire. So take it with you if you want to barbecue. When I asked about wood the man who checked us in said - oh we forgot to cut wood for you. Fortunately, the garage 2 km beyond the lodge had wood.

Hello Anette, Sorry, we are self-catering and that means guests need to bring their own food, wine and even wood.
If you visit Kruger Park there is no free wood, etc.
Furthermore, our staff would never say we forgot to cut firewood however would always oblige at no charge.
Thanks for the visit.
Regards, Les Jones

Goed geskik vir 'n oorslaap op pad wildtuin toe.

Lekker bed, kombuis yl ingerig so bring alles saam wat nodig is vir braai.

Well suited for a stopover on the way to the game park.

Nice bed, kitchen sparsely furnished so bring everything you need for a barbecue.

Totaal verkeerde ligging as aangedui.

Netjiese verblyf maar 80 km van die location wat aangedui word op verskillende webtuistes, soos bevestig met ander gaste. Les reken daar moes e-pos gewees het vir regstelling in location, maar niks is ooit ontvang nie. Daars geen koffie of tee. Khaya probeer wel sy bes om die gaste te help met dubbelbesprekings ens. Baie onveilig, glad nie omhein.

Totally wrong location as indicated.

Neat accommodation but 80 km from the location indicated on different websites, as confirmed with other guests. Les reckons there should have been an email for correction in location, but nothing was ever received. There is no coffee or tea. Khaya does try his best to help the guests with double bookings etc. Very unsafe, not fenced at all.

Meer verwag.

Wifi was nie beskikbaar soos geadverteer nie, geen ekstra toiletpapier nie, kombuis het minimaal beskikbaar. Ketel en mikrogolf was eers later die aand gebring, yskas en geiser was nie aan nie. Prys lyk dit, is net vir die dekor en die omgewing.

More expected.

Wifi was not available as advertised, no extra toilet paper, kitchen had minimal available. Kettle and microwave were not brought until later in the evening, fridge and geyser were not on. Price it seems, is only for the decor and the environment.
