Thank you very much for a wonderful stay. We enjoyed it terribly. The animals pass by right through the day. It was definitely one of the best places we have stayed in Marloth Park.

Very nice visit and walking distance from Crocodile River. Very convenient.
Yes, we had a nice stay. Upper bedroom bedding needs attention. A shovel will be quite handy for pouring hot coals into the braai area. Luckily I took my own shovel with me. The children really enjoyed feeding the animals, and it is very safe with the fence that keeps the animals outside.

Lidvubu Lodge 's response
Hi Zelna. Ek is jammer om te hoor dat die huis nie goed skoongemaak is voor julle daar gebly het nie. Ek sal dit beslis opneem met die skoonmaakspan. Ek het by gaste wat die naweek na julle daar was, verneem dat hulle baie tevrede was met die netheid van die huis. Ek vra omverskoning dat julle dit nie so ervaar het nie.

Nice stay with good location.
We are regular visitors to Marloth and this was one of our most enjoyable visits. We were kindly met at the house by Trish who explained to us how als works. The location is great with only a few meters walk from the river where there was always something to see. Would recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy the tranquility of the park.

Everything you need! Thank you very much for the wonderful visit! We enjoyed every moment of it! We were very grateful for the air conditioning and the lovely "splash pool". You can simply cool off in the water while the goats and warthogs eat from the feeding bowls here.

Comfortable, convenient and well located.
We had such a good time. This is a family friendly home for sure. Three balconies for viewing and visiting, a comfortable and safe boma area and especially the swimming pool was a hit. We have wonderful photos and memories of the children's close-up experience with kudus, wildebeest, warthogs, ibex and even giraffes. Early in the morning we walked the approximately 50 meters to the border at the Crocodile River with deckchairs and coffee to enjoy the free nature.

Excellent accommodation.
It was one of the best visits I have ever had in Maloth Park. The house was clean and tidy and ready for us and we had wonderful family time with our adult children. There was everything we needed and we really enjoyed the visits together with many different species of wildlife and would love to visit Lidvubu Lodge again. Many thanks to the owners who made this nice and safe place available to us. Marloth is my heart's place and your little house was a piece of paradise for us.

The house was clean and we had a nice stay.
The owner must be informed that the baboons are busy picking out the stoep's thatched roof. The taps in the kitchen also need to be replaced or repaired. The house is close to the river for nice walks but not so close that the traffic bothers you.

Had a great time in Marlothpark, but the accommodation was disappointing.
Lidvubu Lodge is perfectly located near the river and so we could often walk along the river. It was wonderful for our small children to experience the wildlife and feed it by hand at home. However, the accommodation was disappointing. The air conditioning that served the upper two rooms had no gas and as a result it was unbearable to sleep there with the heat. I struggled for three days to get hold of the owner as she was in India. They only came to put in gas on the penultimate day. Meanwhile, my daughter and grandchildren had to sleep on the couches in the living room. Furthermore, the emergency lamps did not work, luckily we took two of our own. The braai grids were very dirty and one rusted. The pool's Creepy was also not working properly and as a result he was very dirty by Wednesday. To top it all off, the gas from the hot water heater also ran out on Friday. For the price we paid, it didn't live up to the requirements. However, it is a shame that the experience was not very positive as the place has a lot of potential.

Lidvubu Lodge 's response
Beste Leon Ons is werklik jammer dat jy die verblyf teleurstellend ervaar het, aangesien dit vir ons belangrik is dat gaste gemaklik bly en die tyd by Lidvubu Lodge geniet. Ek sal in die toekoms reel dat die bestuurder van die agentskap wat na ons huis omsien, gaste by die huis ontmoet sodat hulle haar kan ontmoet en vrymoedigheid neem om haar te kontak indien hulle hulp sou verlang tydens hulle verblyf.
Dit is ongelukkig dat die lugversorger onklaar geraak het, die Kreepy en die gas in dieselfde week. Ons sal alles in ons vermoe doen om dit in die toekoms te voorkom. Ons sal nuwe 'loadshedding" lampies installeer en toesien dat die braai grid vervang en skoongemaak is. Ons vra omverskoning vir die ongerief wat julle ervaar het. Ons sal ons beste doen om te verseker dat ons gaste in die toekoms 'n positiewe en aangename ervaring by Lidvubu Lodge geniet.

Expected much better.
The interview on Lidvubu needs attention. Both light bulbs in bathroom not working. Had to use one bulb in bedroom for bathroom. The faucet at the sink in the bathroom gives very poor water flow - there is a blockage somewhere. The folding camp chairs - two chairs are not usable at all - broken apart. The doublets and thorns of trees everywhere on the yard must also be cleared.

Nice stay. Everything is there that is needed, enjoy splash pool, especially in the heat. Nagapies and Kudus came to visit and our child enjoyed it immensely. For visitors in the future, just make sure that all food is left in bowls/bags because there are a lot of ants, we just accept it as part of the bushveld.

Easy, relaxing, peaceful.
For the teenagers, the cracking of the wooden deck (outside and inside) was terribly funny. The small pool was a treat and the fact that it is on the deck makes it so much more convenient. The air cooling was also a bonus and was well engineered. The ants were a big problem, but we understand it will get attention. The stove is a challenge because some of the knobs are gone and all the knobs don't indicate well when the gas is on or off. But it's quickly mastered.
