Fabulous.

The place was clean and has the best location because the animals roam around and it's close to most places around the reserve.

A lovely stay immersed in nature!

Lovely stay with animals and birds visiting us in the garden! Very good safaris with the knowledgeable guides seeing rhinos and antelopes. Mabalingwe is a charming reserve! Maybe soap in both bathrooms would be good and WiFi connection! Thank you.

Peaceful gateway we had.

We enjoyed our stay in the bush. The place was very peaceful and we could see animals roaming while in our unit. We could definitely come back.

Ja, die ligging is ideaal.

Ons het ons kuier baie geniet, maar die onderstaande geniet baie aandag.

Die gordyne lyk baie slordig - kan die hoofslaapkamer s'n glad nie toetrek nie a.g.v. van hakies wat uitgebreek is. Die kombuistafel is vol merke en lyk glad nie goed nie. Die ketel is in 'n slegte toestand. Die braai val uitmekaar uit - eerste aand wat ons vleis gebraai het, het die braai inmekaar getuimel omdat die voetstuk met klippe gestut word - moes al ons vleis weggooi. Toiletsitplek in die 1 badkamer is te klein en ongemaklik en die toilet lek water. Linne wat gebruik word is baie 'tatty'.

We enjoyed our visit very much, but the following deserves a lot of attention.

The curtains look very sloppy - can't close the master bedroom's at all because of broken brackets. The kitchen table is full of marks and does not look good at all. The boiler is in bad condition. The braai is falling apart - the first night we grilled meat, the braai fell apart because the base is propped up with stones - we had to throw away all the meat. Toilet seat in the 1 bathroom is too small and uncomfortable and the toilet leaks water. Linen used is very 'tatty'.

In twee minds.

Die plek was gedubbelboek. 9 uur die ander klop die ander gaste, wat 'n ontnugtering vir my en hulle. Die TV met al sy beloofde kanale was nie tot ons beskikking nie. Die remote was spoorloos en skielik die laaste aand sy opwagting gemaak op my bedkassie. Het ook nie gehelp nie TV was nie met antenaa gekoppel nie. Gelukkig nie dit het ons geforseer om onsself te vermaak. Huisie nie verbruikersvriendelik met al die trappe en skerp hoeke nie. Familie seê hulle het dit baie geniet. Die geriewe by Mabalingwe is baie goed, restaurant en sy personeel van hoë gehalte en bekostigbaar. Wildsritte was baie aangenaam. Swembaddens ook goed behalwe vir die alkoholverbruik van sommige gaste. Sal ek weer die oord besoek? 'n Groot ja!

In two minds.

The place was double booked. 9 o'clock the others beat the other guests, what a disillusionment for me and them. The TV with all its promised channels was not available to us. The remote was without a trace and suddenly made its appearance on my bedside table last night. Also did not help TV was not connected to antenaa. Fortunately, it did not force us to entertain ourselves. Cottage not consumer friendly with all the stairs and sharp corners. Family says they really enjoyed it. The facilities at Mabalingwe are very good, restaurant and its staff of high quality and affordable. Game drives were very enjoyable. Swimming pools also good except for the alcohol consumption of some guests. Would I visit the resort again? A big yes!
