Thank you, would like to go back.

Wonderful, tranquil place, beautiful views. Clean with everything you need. Only struggle was with the road down to the house, low-profile vehicle.

This must be a peace of heaven, falling asleep with sounds of the waves and waking up with the sound of the waves was so relaxing, the first thing we missed after returning home. The location was perfect and close to shops if you needed anything. I'll definitely book Makulu again, oh and and the owner, Greg, will tell you where to catch, he has a knowledge about the area that money can't buy, so if you are going fishing or just relaxing, Makulu Manzi is the place to be. Till we meet again.

Just amazing, beautiful, and peaceful.

A comfortable stay in a magical location.

Absolutely idyllic location. Well appointed with all necessary requirements. Living area / kitchen is a bit cramped for 5 people. The contact person is always available and ready to help.

Heerlik gebly by Makulu Manzi.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Daar is 'n paar dinge in die huisie wat onderhoud verg of nie werk nie, maar die uitsig het daarvoor opgemaak. Die WiFi is baie stadig of onbeskikbaar.

Great stay at Makulu Manzi.

We had a very nice stay. There are a few things in the cottage that need maintenance or don't work, but the view made up for it. The WiFi is very slow or unavailable.

Was heerlik en het baie lekker gerus.

Makulu Manzi is 'n lekker vakansie huis vir 'n groot gesin van 6. Genoeg slaapplek en alles wat jy nodig het in die huis. Sal bly wees as daar 'n tuimeldroeër kan wees.

Uitstekende plek vir 'n rustige vakansie.

Die blyplek is uitstekend en baie netjies met n puik ligging teen die see en wonderlike uitsigte. Alles wat jy benodig is beskikbaar in die huis. Die area is baie netjies, skoon en rustig vir n ontspannende vakansie of wegbreek. Die gasvrou is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en reëlings word uitstekend deurgegee voor jou aankoms. Sal die plek definitief weer besoek en aanbeveel vir enige iemand.

Beste ligging en uitsig

Makulu Manzi het voorwaar die beste ligging met 'n see-uitsig vanuit al die kamers. Dit is heerlik om elke aand met die gedruis van die see in jou ore aan die slaap te raak. Elke dag het die dolfyne verby gekom om te groet. Ek beveel Makulu Manzi sterk aan vir diegene wat wil rustig wees by die see.

Best location and view

Makulu Manzi truly has the best location with a sea view from all the rooms. It is wonderful to fall asleep every night with the roar of the sea in your ears. Every day the dolphins came by to say hello. I highly recommend Makulu Manzi for those who want to be peaceful by the sea.

Fantastiese ligging.

Makulu Manzi is geleë teenaan die see! Ons het bykans al die seisoene beleef - reën, wind en sonskyn dae! Die toppunt was die dolfyne wat voor ons eenheid in die see baljaar het. Lieflike, rustige wegbreek. Ek sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel.

Fantastic location.

Makulu Manzi is located opposite the sea! We have experienced almost all the seasons - rain, wind and sunny days! The highlight was the dolphins frolicking in the sea in front of our unit. Lovely, peaceful getaway. I would recommend it anytime.

Beautiful peaceful spot.

A scenic place, lovely walks and beach close by. We enjoyed a restful time. Close enough to East London for any needs. The accommodation is semi-detached which may be problematic for a family with young boisterous children. There is also a block of flats very close by on the perimeter.

Die kuier was regtig lekker, elke aand gebraai, die kinders het dit geniet en die uitsig was regtig baie mooi.

Lekker gekuier en gerus. Die enigste negatiewe wat vir my baie sleg was is dat daar geen afdak of motorhuis vir my motor was nie, hy moes die hele 8 dae in die son staan, dis ook al wat sal maak dat ek nie weer by Makulu Manzi sal bly nie. Die kinders sal ook graag bietjie nader aan die swemstrand wou wees, maar die netjies en emmers wat ons vir hulle gekoop het het hulle besig gehou tussen die rotse waar hulle klein klipvissies kon vang.

The visit was really nice, barbecue every night, the children enjoyed it and the view was really very beautiful.

Have a good time and relax. The only negative that was really bad for me is that there was no roof or garage for my car, it had to stand in the sun for the whole 8 days, that's also what will make me not stay at Makulu Manzi again. The children would also like to be a little closer to the swimming beach, but the nets and buckets we bought for them kept them busy among the rocks where they could catch small stone fish.

Fantastiese ontspanning op die see.

Makulu Manzi is 'n juweel op die strand. Dit is 'n volledig toegeruste huis. Gemaklike rusbanke, alle toebehore wat nodig is. Die 180 grade uitsig oor die Wildekus is prentjiemooi. Ons het dolfyne en walvisse van beide stoepe af gesien. Ek beveel Makulu Manzi aan vir enigeen wat rus vir sy siel nodig het.

Fantastic relaxation on the sea.

Makulu Manzi is a gem on the beach. It is a fully equipped house. Comfortable sofas, all necessary accessories. The 180 degree view over the Wildekus is picture perfect. We saw dolphins and whales from both porches. I recommend Makulu Manzi to anyone who needs rest for his soul.
