Visiting from Australia, it was an amazing, wonderful experience. Highly recommend.

We had 3 cabins for our stay. It was such a fabulous, close-to-nature experience. Accommodation was comfortable, and amenities were great.

Nice little break-away.

Such a nice little place to lift your feet and relax. Best part: there was a gun safe! Lol, did not expect that. Having an evening braai and sitting around playing board games was the best time we had in a long time. Jurie checked in after hearing about water issues to make sure everything was still fine.

Wonderlike bosveld wegbreek.

Dit was 'n wonderlike paar dae. Die chalets is goed toegerus en daar is alles wat mens sou kon nodig hê op 'n bosveld wegbreek. Ons het heerlik gebruik gemaak van die swembad en braai en kon elke oggend na die Kruger Wildtuin se lyndraad loop om die diere te sien water drink. Ons het tuisbesoeke van die koedoes, zebras, bosbokkies, meerkatte en vlakvarke ontvang op 'n daaglikse basis. Die Krokodilbrug hek is ook net 'n halfuur weg (teerpad) vir 'n wildtuin besoek. NB: Chalet 1 is naaste aan die klimraam as mens met kinders sou reis.

Wonderful woodland getaway.

It's been a great few days. The chalets are well equipped and there is everything one could need on a woodland getaway. We made great use of the swimming pool and barbecue and were able to walk to the Kruger Wildlife Park's wire fence every morning to see the animals drinking water. We received home visits from the kudus, zebras, ibex, meerkats and warthogs on a daily basis. The Krokodilbrug gate is also only half an hour away (tarred road) for visiting a wildlife park. NB: Chalet 1 is closest to the climbing frame if you would travel with children.

Heerlik, stil en ontspanne atmosfeer. 'n Vakansie met volop diere om te sien.

Ons het regtig baie lekker gekuier. Die plek is perfek vir ons, bied jou alles wat jy nodig het, en die geriewe is regtig goed. En natuurlik al die diere wat daar deur beweeg, is awesome. Ons het dit "ge-love". Verder is dit heerlik stil en kan mens daar lekker ontspan en in die splashpool afkoel as jy warm kry.

We really had a great time. The place is perfect for us, offers you everything you need, and the facilities are really good. And of course all the animals that move through there are awesome. We "loved" it. Furthermore, it is wonderfully quiet and you can relax there and cool off in the splash pool if you get hot.

Hornbill's Tree Top Chalets are a unique and close to nature experience - do it!

Hierdie was ons tweede familie-kuier by Hornbill's en absoluut ideaal vir ons. Die kleinkinders was gaande oor die baie diere in die omgewing en het selfs geswem al was die water nog yskoud. Die parkeerplekke se skadunet en die nuwe kinder-swaaie en houthuisie is goeie verbeterings. Die baie muskiete vir hierdie tyd van die jaar was onverwags - miskien kan muskietnette in die slaapkamers hierdie ergernis help oplos.

Hornbill's Tree Top Chalets are a unique and close to nature experience - do it!

This was our second family visit to Hornbill's and absolutely ideal for us. The grandchildren were delighted by the many animals in the area and even swam even though the water was still freezing cold. The parking spaces' shade net and the new children's swings and wooden house are good improvements. The many mosquitoes for this time of year were unexpected - perhaps mosquito nets in the bedrooms could help solve this annoyance.

Ontspannend en so lekker om die natuurlewe eerstehands te beleef.

Ons het verskriklik lekker gebly en sal beslis weer daar gaan bly. Alles was skoon en netjies. Goed toegerus van die kombuis tot in die chalet. Prakties uitgelê. Baie diere het by ons chalet 'n draai kom maak, wat die belewenis nog meer ingekleur het.

Ek sal my tyd daar tussen een (1) en vyf (5), net 'n een (1) gee.

Elke chalet het sy eie kombuis, maar dit is nie binne die chalet nie. Die kombuise vir die chalets is almal bymekaar op die grondvloer in die middel van die kompleks. Vol punte vir die idee, maar die chalet waarin ons gebly het, is baie grof en nie goed afgewerk nie. Die planke wat vir die binne-afwerking in die chalet gebruik is, is nie eers afgeskuur nie. Dit is te naby die hoofpad, en die geraas van vragmotors en motors gedurende die dag is uiters steurend en verbreek die stilte wat 'n mens in die bosveld wil hê. In die nag, van 22:00 tot 07:00, is dit egter stil. Dit is een van daardie plekke waarvan ek sal sê: I've been there, I've done it, and got the T-shirt, but not again.

Translate to English.

I will give my time there between one (1) and five (5), just a one (1).

Each chalet has its own kitchen, but it is not inside the chalet. The kitchens for the chalets are all gathered on the ground floor in the middle of the complex. Full marks for the idea, but the chalet we stayed in was very rough and not well finished. The boards used for the interior finishing in the chalet were not even sanded. It is too close to the main road, and the noise of trucks and cars during the day is extremely disturbing and breaks the silence that one wants in the bushland. However, at night, from 22:00 to 07:00, it is quiet. It's one of those places I'll say: I've been there, I've done it, and got the T-shirt, but not again.

Very close to the Crocodile Bridge, Kruger National Park. Close to shops, restaurants and other amenities. Each cabin has its own shower, bathroom and braai facility. Wonderful place to go with friends or family where at night you can all gather around the boma enjoying a nice plate of braai food.

Jy kan nie nader aan die natuur kom as dit nie.

Die sebras het ons ontvang. Die koedoes het kom kuier en tot regonder die chalets geloop, die vlakvarke het hulle gevolg. Toe het die bosbokkie en haar kleintje heelaand om die boma gevreet waar ons gebraai en kuier het. Die interaksie met die diere was vir die kleinkinders die hoogtepunt van die naweek.

You can't get any closer to nature than that.

The zebras received us. The kudus came to visit and walked right under the chalets, the warthogs followed them. Then the ibex and her little one spent the whole evening feeding around the boma where we barbecued and visited. The interaction with the animals was the highlight of the weekend for the grandchildren.

What a wonderful experience! The chalets are delightful, the self-catering kitchen was incredibly well-equipped, the tame bushbuck gently grazing beneath our treehouse were the cherry on the top, THANK YOU!

Despite having to regrettably make a number of changes to our booking, both LekkeSlaap and Wendy the owner were incredibly accommodating, and super helpful throughout. The chalet was very charming and comfortable, spacious and the extra blankets were hugely appreciated! We were impressed by the thoughtfulness of the extras here and there: additional lights for load-shedding, the secure lockbox for keys, a super-well equipped kitchenette, a very cute looking plunge pool (which we sadly didn't use) and a really nice lapa/communal braai area. We'd love to stay again one day! And our kids fell in love with the tame bushbuck roaming the grounds - added bonus! Excellent location too for access from and to Kruger.

Ons het ons tydjie by Hornbill's net baie geniet.

Die huisie nr. 3 waar ons gewoon het, het 'n lekker uitsig oor die veld en bome waar ons baie voels en diere kon besigtig. Jurie was ook beskikbaar wanneer ons hom nodig gehad het en hy het altyd seker gemaak dat ons elektrisiteit het tydens beurtkrag. Ek sal die plekkie definitief weer kom besoek. Die rustigheid van die omgewing is kos vir mens se siel.

We really enjoyed our time at Hornbill's.

The house no. 3, where we lived, has a nice view of the field and trees where we could see many animals and plants. Jurie was also available when we needed him and he always made sure we had electricity during load shedding. I will definitely visit the place again. The tranquility of the environment is food for one's soul.

Ek sal weer gaan as die braaier net beter beplan word.

Die braaier van die ander chalet wat direk onder nr 3 gebou is op 'n slegte plek, want daardie rook waai alles in nr 3 in, wat dit sleg maak. Mens kan nie in die chalet ingaan met daardie rook daar binne nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.

I would go again if the braai was better planned.

The braai from the other chalet which is built directly under no. 3 in a bad place, because that smoke blows everything into no. 3, which makes it bad. One cannot enter the chalet with that smoke in there.

Heerlike plekkie met lekker beddens.

Die bly was heerlik. Al wat fout was is ons moes die sleutelboks se kode self uitvind. Die water was lou elke aand en ons het nooit warm gestort of gebad nie. Die huisie is bietjie naby die pad en kon ons al die karre hoor verbyry, so daar was slegs laat in die nag rustigheid gewees. Verder was dit heerlik om te weet dat die krag aankom tydens beurtkrag.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Lovely place with nice beds.

The stay was wonderful. All that was wrong was that we had to figure out the key box's code ourselves. The water was lukewarm every night and we never had a hot shower or bath. The house is a bit close to the road and we could hear all the cars driving by, so there was only peace late at night. Furthermore, it was great to know that the power was coming on during load shedding.

Ons was teleurgesteld. Dis nie wat ons verwag het nie.

Ons akkommodasie was skoon, maar die muskiete het ons weggedra, so die vensters moes toe bly. Dan is daar nog loadshedding ook, dis ekstra donker, want daar is net 1 lig wat ons in die kombuis ontdek het. Nêrens is daar 'n skedule van hoe laat die krag afgaan nie, ons lig by die braai was buite werking. Wat van gaas voor die kamervenster? Daar is verskriklik baie spinnekoprakke in die slaapkamer vandaar al die muskiete, ek glo hulle broei daar.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

We were disappointed. It's not what we expected.

Our accommodation was clean, but the mosquitoes carried us away, so the windows had to remain closed. Then there is also loadshedding, it is extra dark, because there is only 1 light that we discovered in the kitchen. Nowhere is there a schedule of what time the power goes out, our light at the barbeque was out of order. What about mesh in front of the room window? There are an awful lot of spider cracks in the bedroom hence all the mosquitoes, I believe they breed there.

A peaceful bush getaway.

We felt safe and secluded in our rustic accommodation, had everything we needed and were pleasantly surprised by the number of animals that came to visit. Two bathrooms per chalet are really handy with young kids and nice that you can quickly wash your hands at the braai area. The owners are friendly and informative and quick to assist should you need anything! Will definitely recommend Hornbills Nest.

A perfect place to just relax and recharge.

If you need TV to enjoy your holiday, not the ideal place. But if sitting on the stoep enjoying a drink and watching the sunset or sunrise, listening to nature and watching the wildlife is your thing Hornbill's Nest is perfect.

Eienaar is betrokke en maak gereeld 'n draai om seker te maak als is reg. Plek is baie mooi en gerieflik en die fans en air-con is beslis 'n groot gerief wat baie plekke nie het nie en die naby splashpool is ideaal vir warm dae. Sal plek definitief aanbeveel.

Rustig, netjies en baie familievriendelik.

Dit was by verre die bestel waarde vir geld. Daar is alles en die wild loop vrylik rond. Die kinders het hulle gate uit geniet in die swembad. Sal definitief meer gereeld soontoe gaan en elke keer iemand anders saam vat. Niemand het ons gepla nie nie. Beste beste beste. Die waaier en lugversorging het jou laat vergeet jy is in die hittige Kruger. Ek sou sê jy kan net soontoe gaan en jy hoefnie eers wildtuin toe te gaan nie.

It was by far the best value for money. Everything is there and the wildlife roams freely. The children enjoyed themselves in the pool. Will definitely go there more often and take someone else with me each time. Nobody bothered us. Best best best. The fan and air conditioning made you forget you were in the hot Kruger. I would say you can just go there and you don't even have to go to the game park.

'n Lekker uitspan plek naby Kruger Park. Die vier nessies is pragtig saam gegroepeer in die middel van die bos met groot bome rondom.

Die trappe na die slaapplek kan vir seniors uitdagend wees en die kombuisie onder op die grondvlak is 'n jammerte, maar mens kan heerlik kuier as jy eers gewoond is daaraan.

A nice place to stretch out near Kruger Park. The four nestlings are beautifully grouped together in the middle of the forest with large trees all around.

The stairs to the sleeping place can be challenging for seniors and the kitchenette down on the ground level is a shame, but you can have a great time once you get used to it.

Lekker gekuier, versoek dat die muismis bo-op die klerekaste, houtmure en plafon verwyder word.

Daar het 'n likkewaan ingekom een middag, dis nie 'n probleem nie, ons was in die bos en aanvaar wilde diere sal doen wat hulle wil. Ons het hom gevang waar hy in die bad vasgesit het, en vrygelaat buite. Die likkewaan, met sy sukkel om uit te kom, het bo-op die mure, klerekaste en badkamerplafon (oop stoorruimte binne huis) rondgeloop om 'n pad na buite te soek. Met dié, skop hy baie muismis af wat al lank opgehoop het bo-op die plekke. Dit land op en in die beddens, kussings, oral oor die vloer. Ek weet dis nie normaal om die muismis te sien as die bo-op die klerekaste lê nie, maar dis nogsteeds iets wat ek nie in my verblyf soek nie.

Had a great time, request that the mouse droppings on top of the wardrobes, wooden walls and ceiling be removed.

A lizard came in one afternoon, that's not a problem, we were in the woods and assumed wild animals would do what they wanted. We caught him stuck in the tub and released him outside. Struggling to get out, the licorice walked around on top of the walls, wardrobes and bathroom ceiling (open storage space inside the house) looking for a way out. With that, he kicks off a lot of mouse droppings that have long accumulated on top of the spots. It lands on and in the beds, pillows, all over the floor. I know it's not normal to see the mouse droppings on top of the wardrobes, but it's still something I don't look for in my accommodation.

'n Pragtige boomhuisstoep en niks meer nie.

Sjoe, waar om te begin. Ons het laatmiddag daar aangekom, nadat ons eers verkeerd gery het, want die adres is Steenbokstraat 3547, maar die ingang na die chalets is eers by 3548! Ons het geen idee gehad waar die sleutel of die boomhuise is nie en alhoewel ek Jurie gebel het, het ek steeds nie geweet waarheen om te gaan nie. Gelukkig was daar reeds 'n ander gesin ingeboek wat ons gaan wys het waar ons chalet is. Op pad daarheen het my string varswaterpêrels aan die tralies gehaak en gebreek. Die meeste van die pêrels het onder die vloer ingeval. Ek kon egter genoeg red vir 'n halwe armband. Ek was geskok om te sien dat die pragtige swembad waarin die behulpsame gesin was, nie by elke chalet is nie, maar dat dit die hele kompleks se swembad is! 4 Gesinne deel dus 'n splash pool van 3 by 2 meter ongeveer. Dis tog belaglik in so 'n warm plek soos Marlothpark! Ons chalet het vrek steil trappe na bo gehad (soos al die chalets), maar dit was nie vir ons 'n probleem nie, want ons was opgewonde om in 'n boomhuis te bly! Die chalet is vrek warm en slegs die hoofslaapkamer het 'n onvoldoende lugverkoeling. Die kamer waar my seun moes slaap, was so warm dat hy die tweede aand sy matras in ons kamer ingedra het, sodat hy darem geslaap kon kry. Daar is wel waaiers, baie waaiers, maar dit jaag maar net die warm lug rond en doen niks aan die temperatuur nie. Die matrasse is goeie gehalte en die kussings ook. Ons het lekker geslaap. Die meubels is egter karig en sommer net planke wat vasgemaak is aan die mure vir bedkassies en 'n kopstuk. Daar is geen bedmatjies nie. Die aantrekkamer is maar bloot die gang tussen die 2 kamers en niks besonders nie. Die beligting, orals in die chalet, maar spesifiek in die aantrekkamer, is so swak dat 'n mens wat vroeg opstaan om Wildtuin toe te gaan, skaars kan sien om hare te blaas en grimering aan te wend. Neem ook asseblief jou eie haardroër saam, want die ene wat voorsien word, is so vuil en taai dat ek nie daaraan wou raak nie. Daar is egter genoeg dubbelpunt-, tweepunt- en rondepuntkonneksies vir elke moontlike toestel. Die 2 badkamers was vir ons 'n raaisel, maar gelukkig het die vriendelike gaste in chalet 3 vir ons vertel dat die kleinhuisie onder die chalet die 2de badkamer is. Dit het so gestink van die muf daar, dat ons eerder maar net gebad het in die boonste badkamer. Wie wil in elk geval by die voordeur uitloop, 2 stelle trappe in die openbaar klim en dan in 'n muskietgevulde badkamer gaan stort? Die onderste badkamerlig bly aangeskakel as jy wil braai, want dis dieselfde skakelaar en die mure is nie tot bo gebou nie, so die muskiete wemel daar in die badkamer. My man het wel probeer om daar te stort, maar die water was onreguleerbaar - dit brand of is yskoud. Toe hy Jurie daarvan vertel, het Jurie hom skaars opgemerk! Die boonste badkamer se wasbak het gestink van die drein. Drain cleaner is blykbaar nie iets waarvan die eienaar kennis dra nie. Die uiters dun enkellaagtoiletpapier, wat afrol tot in die asblik, was nie aangenaam nie. Hierdie is die eerste 3 ster-chalet waar ek enkellaagtoiletpapier raakloop. Die handewashanddoek hang bo die rol toiletpapier en as mens hande was, raak die toiletpapier nat wanneer jy hande afdroog. Die handdoeke het donse op ons agtergelaat. Die grootste skok was dat die kombuis 'n dagreis te perd ver is. Jy moet trappe afloop en in 'n aparte gebou gaan kosmaak. Daar is dit so klein dat 2 mense nie gelyktydig binne kan wees nie. Oggendkoffie het beteken trappe af in jou pajamas, koffie maak en op 'n blik skinkbord, wat heeltyd twist, weer opdra met die trappe. Dis was baie ongerieflik! Die kombuis is nie goed toegerus nie en vir 3 sterre het ek darem glas wynglase verwag en nie groen plastiekglase nie. Nie een van die messe en vurke is deel van dieselfde stel nie en ook nie die borde nie. Daar is geen beker om water in die ketel te gooi nie en dis 'n onbegonne taak om dit onder die wasbakkraan te probeer volmaak. Ek het maar koppie vir koppie water in die ketel gegooi. Daar is geen opskeplepels nie en ook geen rasper en skêr nie. Die messelaai maak geweldig moeilik oop en toe en as jy dit nie presies reguit instoot nie, maak dit glad nie toe nie. Die kleinkombuisie se deur gaan die hele tyd toe, dan is jy vasgekeer in geweldige hitte met 1 by 1/2 meter beweegspasie. Daar is geen ysbakkies in die vrieskas nie. Die asblikke is nooit leeggemaak oor die tyd wat ons daar gebly het nie, 3 nagte. Die ligte op die paadjies is gekoppel aan 'n tydskakelaar en teen die 3de aand was daar fout, want toe is ons in donkerte gehul en moes voel-voel kombuis toe stap om te gaan laataandkoffie maak. Gelukkig het die ligte die volgende oggend helder oor dag helder gebrand! Die braai area is heel aanvaarbaar, met genoeg lig by die braaier, maar mens kan nie na donker daar eet nie, want die tafel is glad nie verlig nie. Dit help bietjie om die onderste badkamer se deur oop te los, maar die stank van daardie badkamer maak dit ondraaglik en daarom het ons maar op die lieflike stoep gaan eet. Dit was regtig 'n baie lieflike stoep, met pragtige bankies en stoeltjies, asook 'n groot genoeg tafeltjie. Ons het graag daar gesit en kuier en tussen die boomtoppe deurgeloer. Hierdie was my gunstelingdeel van die chalets. Moenie die sekuriteitshek sluit nie! Ek herhaal, moenie! Mens kan dit met moeite van buite af oopkry en van binne is dit amper 'n onbegonne taak, want die sleutel pas nie van binne af in die gat nie, so jy moet jou hand deur die hek stoot en van buite af die ding oopsukkel. Die kersie op die koek was toe my man die laaste aand deur die grond geval het, binne in die riool in. Jip, soos 'n sinkgat (stinkgat). Hy het amper lelik seergekry en die volgende dag, ons vertrek dag, toe Jurie die eerste keer sy verskyning maak, het hy om verskoning gevra en dadelik gehaas om te gaan kyk hoe groot die skade aan sy grond is. Hy het nie eers gevra of my man seergekry het nie. Ons was nog daar vir die herstel-proses, lol! 'n Dun sink is oor die gat geplaas en bo-op met sement toegesmeer. Pasop asseblief by die braai-area van chalet 4. Jy gaan deur die sink val! Jurie, hierdie is vir jou: Julle idee van boomhuise is 'n geweldige trekpleister. Dis pragtige omgewing en lieflik donker in die aand, wat vir 'n wonderlike nagrus sorg. Doen egter die volgende: Sit 'n bord by 3547 wat aandui dat Hornbill's Nest verder aan is. Ontmoet jou gaste. As jy nie daar kan wees nie, vra 'n vriend om in te staan. 'n Moeë, verwarde gas, is nie 'n gelukkige gas nie. Bou 'n splash pool vir elke chalet. Dit gaan mense na jou plek laat stroom. Mense wat van water hou, is gewoonlik nog meer opgewonde as hulle hoor dat hul 'n privaat swembad het. Waarsku mense met gebreke oor die steil trappe. Ook oorgewig mense, want die paadjies is baie nou. Sit lugverkoeling in die 2de kamer en vervang die outydse lugverkoeling in die hoofslaapkamer. Vervang die ligte se gloeilampe met sterker gloeilampe, veral die een by die spieëltafel. Spesifiseer dat daar 'n buitetoilet is met 'n stort en sit dit op 'n aparte skakelaar, sodat 'n mens die lig afgeskakel kan hou om die muskiete uit te hou. Maak die plek skoon! So ook die drein by die boonste badkamer. Mense borsel tande by die wasbak, spoeg in die wasbak en dan raak dit later vrot as huisgesin na huisgesin daar tande borsel. Kry dubbellaagtoiletpapier en moenie die handdoeke Sta-soft gee nie. Dit droog in elk geval beter af sonder Sta-soft. Sit nog 'n ketel en koppies in die chalet vir oggendkoffie. Mens gee nie regtig om dat mens apart van die chalet moet kosmaak nie, maar oggendkoffie is belangrik. Kyk ook maar na my klagtes oor die kombuis se toerusting. Miskien 'n hak aan die deur om die deur oop te hou? Laat kyk na daardie sekuriteitshek. As ek alleen was, was ek daar vasgekeer totdat jy van naweek af teruggekom het! Maak daardie gat in die grond self reg. Jou werkers flous jou met die opdragte wat jy vir hulle gee. Daarom dat hulle nie die asblikke uitgegooi het tydens jou afwesigheid van die chalets nie. Baie dankie vir die rus en vrede wat ons by julle kon ervaar. Die stoep was waarlik vir ons pragtig en ons sien julle eendag weer, sodra jy darem van my voorstelle ter harte geneem het.

A beautiful treehouse porch and nothing more.

Wow, where to start. We arrived there in the late afternoon, after driving the wrong way, because the address is Steenbokstraat 3547, but the entrance to the chalets is only at 3548! We had no idea where the key or the treehouses were and even though I called Jurie I still didn't know where to go. Luckily there was already another family booked in who went to show us where our chalet was. On the way there, my string of freshwater pearls caught on the bars and broke. Most of the pearls fell under the floor. However, I was able to save enough for half a bracelet. I was shocked to see that the beautiful pool that the helpful family was in is not at every chalet, but that it is the entire complex's pool! 4 Families therefore share a splash pool of 3 by 2 meters approx. It's ridiculous in such a warm place as Marlothpark! Our chalet had pretty steep stairs to the top (like all the chalets), but that wasn't a problem for us as we were excited to be staying in a tree house! The chalet is terribly hot and only the master bedroom has insufficient air conditioning. The room where my son had to sleep was so hot that on the second night he carried his mattress into our room, so he could at least get some sleep. There are fans, lots of fans, but they just move the hot air around and do nothing to the temperature. The mattresses are good quality and the pillows too. We slept well. However, the furniture is meager and just boards attached to the walls for bedside tables and a headboard. There are no bed mats. The dressing room is just the corridor between the 2 rooms and nothing special. The lighting, everywhere in the chalet, but specifically in the dressing room, is so poor that a person who gets up early to go to the Wildlife Park can barely see to blow hair and apply make-up. Also, please bring your own hairdryer as the one provided is so dirty and sticky that I didn't want to touch it. However, there are enough double-point, two-point and round-point connectors for every possible device. The 2 bathrooms were a mystery to us, but luckily the friendly guests in chalet 3 told us that the small house under the chalet is the 2nd bathroom. It stank so much of the mold there, that we instead just bathed in the upstairs bathroom. Who wants to walk out the front door, climb 2 sets of stairs in public and then shower in a mosquito filled bathroom anyway? The bottom bathroom light stays on if you want to barbecue, because it's the same switch and the walls are not built up to the top, so the mosquitoes swarm in the bathroom. My husband did try to take a shower there, but the water was uncontrollable - it was burning or freezing cold. When he told Jurie about it, Jurie barely noticed him! The upstairs bathroom sink stank from the drain. Drain cleaner is apparently not something the owner is aware of. The extremely thin single ply toilet paper, which rolls down into the bin, was not pleasant. This is the first 3 star chalet where I come across single ply toilet paper. The hand washing towel hangs above the roll of toilet paper and when you wash your hands, the toilet paper gets wet when you dry your hands. The towels left fluff on us. The biggest shock was that the kitchen is a day's journey on horseback. You have to go down stairs and go to eat in a separate building. There it is so small that 2 people cannot be inside at the same time. Morning coffee meant going down stairs in your pyjamas, making coffee and carrying it back up the stairs on a tin tray, which was constantly twisting. It was very inconvenient! The kitchen is not well equipped and for 3 stars I at least expected glass wine glasses and not green plastic glasses. None of the knives and forks are part of the same set and neither are the plates. There is no cup to pour water into the kettle and it's a daunting task to try to fill it under the sink tap. I just poured water cup by cup into the kettle. There are no ladles and no grater and scissors. The brick drawer is incredibly difficult to open and close and if you don't push it in exactly straight, it won't close at all. The kitchenette door closes all the time, then you are trapped in extreme heat with 1 by 1/2 meters of space to move. There are no ice trays in the freezer. The bins were never emptied over the time we stayed there, 3 nights. The lights on the paths are connected to a timer and by the 3rd night there was a mistake, because then we were shrouded in darkness and had to walk to the kitchen to make late night coffee. Fortunately, the next morning, the lights were burning brightly during the day! The braai area is quite acceptable, with enough light at the braai, but you cannot eat there after dark, because the table is not lit at all. It helps a little to leave the downstairs bathroom door open, but the stench from that bathroom makes it unbearable and that's why we just went to eat on the lovely porch. It was really a very lovely porch, with beautiful benches and chairs, as well as a large enough table. We enjoyed sitting there and visiting and peering through the treetops. This was my favorite part of the chalets. Do not lock the security gate! I repeat, do not! You can get it open from the outside with difficulty and from the inside it is almost an impossible task, because the key does not fit in the hole from the inside, so you have to push your hand through the gate and struggle to open the thing from the outside. The icing on the cake was when my husband fell through the ground last night, into the sewer. Yep, like a sinkhole (stink hole). He was almost badly hurt and the next day, the day of our departure, when Jury made his first appearance, he apologized and immediately rushed to see how great the damage was to his land. He didn't even ask if my husband was hurt. We were still there for the recovery process, lol! A thin zinc was placed over the hole and covered with cement on top. Please be careful in the braai area of chalet 4. You will fall through the sink! Jury, this is for you: Your idea of tree houses is a huge draw. It's beautiful surroundings and lovely dark in the evening, which makes for a wonderful night's rest. However, do the following: Put a sign at 3547 indicating that Hornbill's Nest is further on. Meet your guests. If you can't be there, ask a friend to stand in. A tired, confused guest is not a happy guest. Build a splash pool for each chalet. This will make people flock to your place. People who love water are usually even more excited when they hear that they have a private pool. Warn people with disabilities about the steep stairs. Also overweight people, because the paths are very narrow. Put air conditioning in the 2nd room and replace the old fashioned air conditioning in the master bedroom. Replace the light bulbs with brighter bulbs, especially the one by the dressing table. Specify that there is an outdoor toilet with a shower and put it on a separate switch, so one can keep the light off to keep the mosquitoes out. Clean up the place! So is the drain in the upstairs bathroom. People brush their teeth at the sink, spit in the sink and then it gets rotten later as household after household brushes there teeth. Get double layer toilet paper and don't give the towels Sta-soft. It dries better without Sta-soft anyway. Put another kettle and cups in the chalet for morning coffee. You don't really mind that you have to cook separately from the chalet, but morning coffee is important. Also look at my complaints about the kitchen's equipment. Maybe a hook on the door to keep the door open? Have a look at that security gate. If I was alone, I'd be stuck there until you came back from the weekend! Fix that hole in the ground yourself. Your workers are fooling you with the assignments you give them. That's why they didn't throw out the trash during your absence from the chalets. Thank you very much for the peace and quiet that we were able to experience with you. The stoep was truly beautiful for us and we will see you again one day, as soon as you have at least taken some of my suggestions to heart.

Beste Marietjie, baie dankie vir jou breedvoerige terugvoer. Ek is regtig baie jammer dat jul die verblyf by ons nie geniet het nie. Ek sal daadwerklik aandag skenk aan die klagtes en voorstelle. Let wel ons is ongelukkig beperk tot slegs een swembad en splashpool per erf. Groete.

Great place for a peaceful getaway!

The chalets and kitchens are fully equipped and functional. The animals that frequent the areas around the chalets are beautiful, especially the lesser bush babies that eat bananas from your hand. Perfect place to unwind and enjoy yourself. Also well located. Only 15 min from the Kruger Park.

Fantasties!

Wat 'n aangename plekkie! Ons en veral ons kinders (3 en 6) was mal oor die plek. Die diertjies kom groet by jou kuierarea. Die eienaar het homself kom voorstel en seker gemaak ons is op ons gemak! Is lekker naby die Kruger Wildtuin vir dagbesoeke. Ons het ons vreeslik geniet in die swembad oor die warm tye van die dag en die lugversorging in die eenheid was net so wenner! Ons het een van ons debietkaarte op 'n manier daar vergeet (nie agter gekom nie) en die eienaar het uit sy pad gegaan om ons kaart by ons terug te kry! As jy die fisiese adres op Google maps intik vat dit jou direk tot by die plek. Ons sal weer hier bespreek! Sien uit na ons volgende besoek!

We enjoyed ourselves tremendously in the pool during the hot times of the day and the air conditioning in the unit was just so winner! We somehow forgot one of our debit cards there (didn't realize) and the owner went out of his way to get our card back to us!

Beautiful, well appointed accommodation in Marloth.

We really enjoyed our stay at Hornbill's Nest Tree Top Chalets. Other guests friendly and no problems at all. Lovely that Jurie comes around to check on a regular basis and very helpful too.

Ons het 'n baie lekker tyd gehad tydens ons verblyf by Hornbill's Nest. Goed, netjies toegeruste eenhede. Eienaar baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die kosmaak- en kuiergeriewe werk uitstekend. Sal weer daar gaan bly en beveel die verblyf 100% aan.

Heerlike rusplek.

Ons het ons tydjie by Hornbill's baie geniet. Die huisies is wel naby die hoofpad geleë, maar die verkeer raak minder na 18:00. Die KNP is 20 minute se ry per teerpad van hier af. Mens kan ongelukkig nie naby jou huisie parkeer nie, en jy moet al jou bagasie self dra tot by die huis. Dit mag dalk 'n probleem vir bejaardes wees. Die eienaar, Jurie, het als in sy vermoeë gedoen om ons gemaklik te laat voel. Ons sal beslis weer gaan kuier.

Great resting place.

We really enjoyed our time at Hornbill's. The houses are located close to the main road, but the traffic becomes less after 18:00. The KNP is a 20-minute drive by tarmac from here. Unfortunately, you cannot park near your cottage, and you have to carry all your luggage yourself to the house. This may be a problem for the elderly. The owner, Jurie, did everything in his power to make us feel comfortable. We will definitely visit again.

Great place and helpful hosts.

Would highly reccomend this place to anyone. Rooms are spacious and well equiped with aircons and fans. Back up lights should power outage occur also available. Cleanliness: the mattresses and bedding was not very clean. We do understand that you are in the bush and can expect anything, but in Chalet 1 everyone staying in there was bitten with what appeared to be bed bugs (could have been something else) but it was really, really bad. Other than that, would stay there again.

Hornbill's Nest Tree Top chalets 's response

Thank you for your feedback and apologies for any inconvenience you may have suffered while staying with us.
I can assure you the bedding is changed after guests left, no one is sharing used bedding.
Unfortunately, because we have thatch roofs and we stay in the bush, we have all kinds of insects present.
Wild animals especially mongoose which roam freely amongst the chalet's braai and recreational areas are carriers of parasites. We do fumigate the grounds and chalets on a regular base but will increase the sessions.

Heerlik.

Die eenhede is oulik en volledig toegerus. Die enigste aanbeveling wat ek kan maak is dat 'n lugversorging-eenheid in beide kamers aangebring word, nie net in die hoofslaapkamer nie. Ons het die hittegolf getref en teen 43 grade was die 2e kamer en badkamer onleefbaar warm. Almal het in ons kamer gekuier. Andersins kan ek met niks fout vind nie. Dit was heerlik.

Delicious.

The units are cute and fully equipped. The only recommendation I can make is that an air conditioning unit be installed in both rooms, not just the master bedroom. We hit the heat wave and at 43 degrees the 2nd room and bathroom were unbearably hot. Everyone hung out in our room. Otherwise, I can't fault anything. It was delicious.

Dit is 'n ideale plek om lekker te ontspan en die natuur te geniet.

Ons het die Vrydag op die vakansie dag daar aangekom. Die eienaar was nie daar, ek het hom gebel maar hy kon my oor die foon help om te sê waar kan ek die sleutels vind. Hy het my alles oor die foon verduidelik van wat is waar. Ek was tevrede daarmee, want hy was nie op die perseel. Dieselfde aand het hy ons kom ontmoet en was baie gaaf. Ons was baie beïndruk met die chalets, skoon en netjies. Ons het glad nie gesukkel nie.

He explained everything to me over the phone about what was true. I was satisfied with that because he was not on the premises. That same evening he came to meet us and was very nice. We were very impressed with the chalets, clean and tidy. We didn't struggle at all.

Hornbill's Nest het nie aan ons verwagting voldoen nie.

Hornbill's Nest chalets is ideaal vir 'n groot familie of groep waar die lede mekaar goed ken en al die chalets beset. Die braai-areas van die verskillende chalets is baie na aan mekaar en glad nie privaat nie. Verder is dit nie geskik vir mense met klein kindertjies wat in een chalet bly nie, aangesien die ouers heeltyd die kindertjies moet stilhou om te verhoed dat hul op die paadjies hardloop en die ander mense steur. Weens die feit dat dit hout is hoor mens wanneer persone op die paadjies en trappe loop. Chalets is goed toegerus en die hout lyk egter baie mooi.

Hornbill's Nest did not live up to our expectation.

Hornbill's Nest chalets are ideal for a large family or group where the members know each other well and occupy all the chalets. The braai areas of the different chalets are very close to each other and not private at all. Furthermore, it is not suitable for people with small children who stay in one chalet, as the parents have to keep the children still all the time to prevent them from running on the paths and disturbing the other people. Due to the fact that it is wood, you hear when people walk on the paths and stairs. Chalets are well equipped and the wood looks very nice though.

The setting is very beautiful and everything is very well equipped. The only negative aspects are that the road noise at peak times is very prevalent and it would have been great to have a shower upstairs instead of just a bath.

Alhoewel ons mense is wat absolute privaatheid verkies, en die "set-up" by Horn-bill amper soos `n tipe "Cluster" is , was dit oor en oor die moeite werd gewees. Ons het die splash pool geniet en Jurie was baie behulpsaam gewees. Baie goeie kliëntediens! Dankie!

Oor die algemeen tevrede en rustige omgewing.

Ons is tevrede, tog is die aparte kombuis nie deel van hoofeenheid nie 'n uitdaging. Privaatheid hier die uitdaging. Swembad kon ons nie regtig benut het nie. Andersins kon ons sien dat daar moeite gedoen word met die onderhoud van strukture.

I would recommend it for sure. People have different needs but the price is very reasonable compared to some of the other places for 4 people. Once again the weather is so nice that it didn't intrude on our wonderful time.

Dit was fantasties!

Die kinders het dit vreeslik baie geniet om in 'n "boomhuis" te bly. En dit was 'n groot bederf om so baie wild op jou "voorstoep" te sien.

It was fantastic!

The children really enjoyed staying in a "tree house". And it was a great treat to see so much wildlife on your "front porch".

Heerlike, ontspanne naweek gewees.

Heerlik en bekostigbaar. So jammer dis so droog. Ek kry die diere so verskriklik jammer. Beplan om weer te gaan, maar beslis nie weer in November nie.

Ons het heerlik gebly en alles was daar wat ons nodig gehad het. Die rustigheid is vrede vir mens se siel!

Daar is slegs 4 eenhede, en dit gee 'n baie rustige atmosfeer. Alles is skoon en netjies. Die diens wat ons van LekkeSlaap en Hornbill's Nest gekry het is net "wow". Ons sal verseker weer daar bespreek.

Uitsonderlik, wonderlik!

Wat 'n wonderlike ondervinding om wild op jou voostoep te sien. Dis baie stil en 'n regte bos-ervaring. Lekker naby aan die Krugerwildtuin. Jul kan ook lekker gaan stap tot by die Krokodilrivier en selfs seekoeie en visarende te siene kry.

Exceptional, wonderful!

What a wonderful experience to see wildlife on your front porch. It's very quiet and a real forest experience. Very close to the Kruger National Park. You can also go for a nice walk to the Crocodile River and even see manatees and ospreys.

Baie vriendelike personeel, eenheid netjies en goed toegrus.

Ons was 'n gesin van 3, het in chalet 4 gebly. Alles wat ons moontlik benodig het was in die uiters netjiese en gerieflike chalet en kombuis beskikbaar. Die atmosfeer was rustig en die eienaar (Jurie) en sy personeel was behulpsaam en uiters vriendelik. Ons sal Hornbill's Nest aan enige een aanbeveel.

Rustig in die natuur.

Die feit dat die kombuis nie deel is van die huisie nie is ongemaklik aangesien die trappe styl en 'n gevaar is. Dis 'n ongemaklike opset. Ek stel voor dat 'n ketel, bekers en glase met 'n klein yskassie ook in die huisie geplaas moet word. Die kombuis is dan reg vir die voorbereiding van die kos.

Quiet in nature.

The fact that the kitchen is not part of the cottage is uncomfortable as the stairs are stilted and a hazard. It's an awkward setup. I suggest that a kettle, mugs and glasses with a small fridge should also be placed in the cottage. The kitchen is then ready for preparing the food.

Glad nie tevrede nie.

Daar was probleme met warm water in storte en dit is nie goed gunstig deur Jurie opgelos nie. Inteendeel, hy was van menig dat as ons nie te vrede is nie ons maar kan op pak en huis toe gaan. Ek sal nooit weer terug gaan nie!

Not satisfied at all.

There were problems with hot water in showers and this was not well resolved favorably by Jurie. On the contrary, he was of the opinion that if we are not at peace we can just pack up and go home. I will never go back again!

We enjoyed our stay very much and would stay again.

Hornbills nest was the perfect place for us. The kitchen that's not in the chalet was not a problem for us, as it's near to the braai area and that was nice. It's quiet with only the birds song here. I would recommend Hornbills nest to any one.

Lovely accommodateion, very nice surroundings, real bush atmosphere

Hornbills Nest was very pleasant. Clean and everything needed was on hand. The only issues we experienced where that there was not enough hot water for bathing and the fact that the dustbins were not emptied for 3 days. Other than that our stay was very pleasant and we will go back again and recommend it to friends.

Die blyplek is baie netjies ingerig. Al negatiewe punt is dat die blyplek bietjie naby aan die hoofpad geleë is, so verkeer kan gehoor word. Die diens was wonderlik.

Lekker gebly, net jammer die kombuis is nie deel van jou blyplek nie. Dit is apart en jy moet elke slag met die trappe op en af as jy iets in die kombuis wil hê. Het die eienaar net eenkeer gesien met aankoms, maar die dametjie wat skoonmaak was behulpsaam en vriendelik. In die algemeen is dit 'n lekker plekkie om weg te breek van die gewoel.

Nice stay, just a pity the kitchen is not part of your accommodation. It is separate and you have to go up and down the stairs every time you want something in the kitchen.
