Peaceful and calm environment.

The staff is friendly and helpful. Our stay was peaceful, and the room was conveniently set up with so much effort put into our stay.

Thank you, Christina, for taking the time to write a review. It was honestly an absolute pleasure to have you both here. Thank you for taking such good care of our room and leaving it so wonderfully clean and tidy. We hope you both return soon and perhaps try out our other rooms too.

Oase op pad na wildtuin.

Ons het heerlik oornag by Gecko en die gasvrou was baie vriendelik. Baie netjies en alles wat 'n mens nodig het om te oornag.

Very nice place to stay!

We spent only one night and it was really nice. Sharon was a wonderful, friendly and helpful hostess and we were pleasantly surprised. We will definitely stay at Gecko Cottage again in future as it was extremely pleasant staying there and it is on our way to the Kruger Park.

My Pa-hulle het dit baie geniet.

Ek het die plekkie vir my Pa-hulle geboek. Hulle het dit baie geniet. Hulle was beïndruk met die netheid van die plekkie en die vriendelikheid waarmee hulle ontvang is. Baie baie dankie dat julle hulle verblyf daar so aangenaam gemaak het.

Ek sal Gecko Lodge vir enige persoon aanbeveel dit is 'n lieflike plek.

Die plekkie het my verwagtinge oortref. Ons het heerlik gebly en ek sal dit aanbeveel vir enige couple wat 'n rustige plekkie soek om oor te slaap op pad Mozambique toe of as jy Kruger Park wil besoek.

Ideale, gerieflike oornag-geriewe naby toegangshekke na Krugerwildtuin.

Sharon het ons baie vriendelik ontvang. Gecko Cottage met die anneks het goed gewerk vir 'n groep van 5 volwassenes. Die kothuis is goed toegerus en netjies met veilige parkering.

Lekker om te oornag!

Het hier oornag na 'n troue. Gecko Cottage is goed geleë met 'n baie vriendelike en behulpsame gasvrou! Geriewe is basies, maar meer as voldoende vir ons vereistes.

Lekker blyplek naby die KNP.

Sharon, die eienaar, was baie vriendelik en het gebel om te hoor wanneer sy ons kan verwag. Die kothuis was netjies en skoon met alles wat nodig was. Die akkommodasie is baie gerieflik en die private swembad en stoep met braaigeriewe was vir ons 'n pluspunt. Met net 20 km tot by die Malelane hek is dit lekker naby die KNP geleë vir dagbesoeke. Ons sal maklik weer by Gecko Cottage gaan bly as ons KNP toe wil gaan.

Nice place to stay near the KNP.

Sharon, the owner, was very friendly and called to find out when she could expect us. The cottage was neat and clean with everything needed. The accommodation is very comfortable and the private pool and veranda with braai facilities were a plus for us. With only 20 km to the Malelane gate, it is conveniently located near the KNP for day visits. We will easily stay at Gecko Cottage again if we want to go to KNP.

Rustige baie netjiese en veilige verblyf naby wildtuin.

Sharon het ons dadelik welkom laat voel, alles gehad wat nodig is en 'n baie skoon en netjiese kothuis. Ons het ons verblyf terdeë geniet. Dis ideaal vir oorslaap en om elke dag die wildtuin te besoek. Ek sal definitief weer daar gaan bly en dit met geruste hart aanbeveel.

Quiet, very neat and safe accommodation near wildlife park.

Sharon immediately made us feel welcome, had everything we needed and a very clean and tidy cottage. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It's ideal for overnight stays and visiting the wildlife park every day. I will definitely stay there again and recommend it without hesitation.

'n Aangename ervaring, naby die hekke van die wildtuin.

Hierdie huisie laat jou tuis voel! Netjies en gerieflik met alles wat nodig is. Lekker om die swembad op jou voorstoep te hê vir die warm dae. Sharon was baie vriendelik en wou net orals help - 'n moet as jy nie plek in die wildtuin kry nie.

A pleasant experience, close to the gates of the game park.

This cottage makes you feel at home! Neat and comfortable with everything you need. Nice to have the pool on your front porch for the hot days. Sharon was very friendly and just wanted to help everywhere - a must if you can't get a place in the wildlife park.
