Baie lekker plek. Reg vir 6 mense.

Die hangkaste in die kamers se deur kort aandag en die swembad se pomp was baie lanklaas skoongemaak. Anders is dit 'n pragtige stil plek en jy kan vir ure saamkuier. Selfoonsein is baie swak.

Very nice place. Right for 6 people.

The hanging cupboards in the rooms' doors need attention and the pool's pump had not been cleaned in a very long time. Otherwise it's a beautiful quiet place and you can hang out for hours. Cell phone signal is very weak.

Clean, spacious, adventurous and has a well-equipped kitchen.

The house accommodates 6 people instead of +/- 8 as advertised. So I would adjust this. Otherwise, a wonderful space. Very spacious kitchen and living room. The beds were very comfortable too and there were lovely showers. The pool area is stunning with a great view.

The stay was amazing! The house catered for everything we needed and the fireplace was absolutely wonderful.

The scenery is breathtaking and we were visited by a friendly warthog and mongoose adding to the experience. We had a wonderful time at this unit and are definitely going back for more. The only improvement I would suggest is for the map that was given. It was a bit confusing at first and the first dirt road (indicated for the unit by boards on the side of the road) is unnecessary and not for normal cars (rather 4x4). Stick to the tar road until you pass reception.

Baie diere onder andere die groot 5 gesien. Nader aan die natuur, God se skepping kan jy nie kom. Rustigheid van die bosveld is terapie. Jan-Louis was ongelooflike veld en wildgids gewees.

Certainly a Dream of Nature.

The house is very well located with beautiful views. Very cosy rooms all en suite with large beds. The living room furniture could do with an upgrade however it's still very beautiful. We had an issue with lighting in on of the rooms that was quickly resolved. The kitchen is also very well equipped, we lacked nothing. Could use a few more serving dishes for larger groups like ours. It is rather easy to get lost from the gate as there are many signs to the house. Only follow the tarred road. Thank you to the owner for a comfortable stay.

Dit was fantasties.

Dit was baie lekker om hier te bly saam met vriende, die huis is lekker uiteengesit wat almal gemaklik laat bly, en die huis het als wat mens nodig het. Die kuierarea is ook baie lekker by 'n baie lekker swembad met 'n baie groot boma. Is ook baie naby aan die hoofswembad.

Baie mooi maar 'n paar foute.

Die dak het gelek wat dit ongemaklik gemaak het. Die “rinolite” op die plafon by die stoof het afgeval en ons ontbyt bederf. Gelukkig het niemand seergekry nie. Die plek is pragtig maar kort onderhoud.

Rustig gewees.

Rustig plekkie en baie diere gesien. Braai area en swembad was baie lekker het dit geniet, maar die huis het TLC nodig. Yskas het nie lekker gewerk nie, dak het erg gelek toe dit gereën het, dit gevoel of dit binne huis reën. Gordynreling het laaste dag af geval in een van die kamers.

It was very nice. Nice and quiet. I will only improve communication.

The guys at the gate have no idea what Dream of Nature is. All we had was No. 10. It didn't say No. 10 Itaga. I suggest you maybe be more clear about the address and the numbers. There is practically no number 10, only number 710 on the boards. I was also asked to pay a breakage deposit, which is not clear on the quote. All the crockery in the unit has chips and glasses are gone etc. It also did not match the inventory list. Suggest you improve it too. Besides, it was very nice.

A weekend to remember.

We really had a great stay at Dream of Nature, the setting was great and the place was very neat. If i can just give the owner a heads up is to have a secondary braai as it rained the whole Saturday and we couldn't braai at all. Otherwise everything was exactly as it was advertised on LekkeSlaap website.

Baie lekker gekuier en het geniet van die pragtige uitsigte oor die omgewing.

Hierdie is 'n lieflike plek om te kuier met vriende of familie. Veral vir mense wat die skoonheid van die bosveld kan waardeer. Ons het dit baie geniet. Die terras by die swembad bied lieflike uitsigte oor die omgewing. In die aand kan mens ook lekker kuier om die vuurput. Die huis is goed toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het - behalwe seep. Daar is 'n paar klein dinge wat gerepareer moet word in die huis, soos die sonwering in die vensters. Sal graag weer hier kom kuier!

Had a great time and enjoyed the beautiful views of the surroundings.

This is a lovely place to visit with friends or family. Especially for people who can appreciate the beauty of the woodland. We enjoyed it very much. The terrace by the pool offers lovely views of the surroundings. In the evening you can also have a good time around the fire pit. The house is well equipped with everything you need - except soap. There are some small things that need fixing in the house, like the sun shades in the windows. Would love to visit here again!

Fantastic house with great views and facilities.

We spent a long weekend at Dream of Nature (5 adults). The house is well equipped and luxurious. En suite bathrooms are great. The pool deck is fantastic and offers great views. The weather was overcast and rainy for the weekend but didn't dampen our break as there was plenty to see and keep ourselves busy with. Very relaxing and the perfect getaway for us from Johannesburg. Will recommend to friends and family and we will stay here again.

Very nice, Mabalingwe Lodge just needs some TLC.

The lodge was very clean and well equipped. The pool in the heat with its lovely view is always welcoming. The lodge is a bit close to its neighbours so can be noisy. The lodge also needs maintenance e.g. the blinds don't work.

Die verblyf is pragtig met baie mooi uitsigte. Die woning is teen die berg en daarom is daar baie trappe - dit maak dit moeilik vir ouer persone of klein kindertjies - net iets om in gedagte te hou.

We enjoyed the weekend so much.

The accommodation is beautiful and the views are stunning. The unit is in the mountain so there are quite a lot of stairs - not ideal for older folks or kids - just something to keep in mind.

Baie ontspannend, pragtige uitsig.

Die huis is pragtig en baie gerieflik. Die oord het opgradering nodig. Die winkel en restaurant het oor die feesseisoen geen voorrade gehad nie.

Very relaxing, beautiful view.

The house is beautiful and very convenient. The resort needs some revamping. The shop and restaurant didn't have any stock over the festive season.

Lovely stay, could use some upgrading.

Great location, great stay. Great view and private. It was slightly unclear on how to get to the location though. Be slightly weary if using a small vehicle. There are a number of stairs, the older generation might not find it very welcoming. TV/s, shower heads, stair maintenance could use upgrading. Some more seating in the living room would have been nice. All together I would still recommend it.

Too expensive per day for what it offers.

Blinds in the house are all broken (mechanisms broken). Very difficult to handle - with a lot of effort it has to be opened and closed. Indication very imprecise. Linen not as desired. For such an expensive place I expect better.

Pragtige huis en uitsig, maar probleme belemmer lekker verblyf.

Ons het Dream of Nature gekies as gevolg van die ligging. Die huis is goed geleë met 'n pragtige uitsig. Ongelukkig het 'n paar probleme ons verblyf beïnvloed. Met aankoms by Mabalingwe het ons 'n uur lank gesukkel om die huis te vind a.g.v swak aanduiding op die kaart wat verskaf is. Met aankoms by die huis was daar geen water beskikbaar nie (ten spyte van 'n watertenk op die perseel), daar is ook geen alternatiewe reëlings getref om ons verblyf te vergemaklik sonder water nie. Die watertoevoer het eers die volgende oggend 9 uur herstel. Daar is teen die middag gevind dat daar ook geen warm water in 'n gedeelte van die huis beskikbaar is nie. Ons het die eienaars gekontak en versoek dat 'n terugbetaling van die verblyfkoste gedoen word a.g.v die ongerief wat ons beleef het, maar die versoek is geïgnoreer.

Beautiful house and view, but problems impact nice accommodation.

We chose Dream of Nature because of the location. The house is well located with a beautiful view. Unfortunately a few problems influenced our stay. On arrival at Mabalingwe we struggled for an hour to find the house because of the poor indication on the map provided. On arrival at the house there was no water available (despite a water tank on the premises), no alternative arrangements were made to make our stay easier without water either. The water supply was only restored the next morning at 9. By the afternoon we found that there was also no hot water available in a part of the home. We contacted the owners and asked for a refund of the cost of accommodation for the discomfort experienced, but our request was ignored.

Mabalingwe - Dream Of Nature 's response

Sorry about the late feedback, but please find hereafter our responses to the claims submit. We like all our guests do enjoy our place as much as us, and any feedback is always constructive. It is first time that guests find difficulties to find her place as we always provide the same direction map to the chalet and the road sign are very accurate (the number 10 is at the bottom of our pave way). The guest can also go to reception and they friendly indicate the way. Do not forget that our guest want a stay in the bush.

Regarding the water problem; it was a water shortage on the farm. They should understand the situation and contact Mabalingwe reception. All the contact numbers are on the top of the fridge. As well as it didn’t happen before we were not prepare about any ” B”-solution, but the swimming pool was there for emergency plan. We feel sorry but there no way we can foreseen that kind of scenario. From the hot water not working from one side of the house, it was due to a faulty geyser. This has been corrected. We feel sorry again, but as well they were no way to predict that, and it still have some hot water in another part of the House as is 2 geysers in the Chalet.

In conclusion we are sorry about the experience and we try our best to make our guest having the best stay possible but sometimes we are victims of circumstances.
Hoping that those explanations can solve the pending situation, please don’t hesitate to contact any time.
Very sincerely I remain.
Therese
