Had such a lovely stay. The house was amazing with excellent view. We were in the pool all weekend watching wildlife on the riverbanks. Will definitely be back.

We did however struggle with water pressure in the three bedrooms to the right hand side of the house which made bathing and showering difficult. Other than that, all was perfect.

Our stay at manzini River Lodge was everything we hoped it would be.

Given there is a game-viewer in the garage, it would be great to be able to use for a small extra cost and to get in one of the available suitably qualified game guides!

Manzini River House 's response

Dear James,

Thank you so much for your stay, and I am delighted that you had a great time!

I apologise if you were not informed by our agent/myself, but all of our guests go on game drives (private/morning/afternoon/night drives) with the Mjejane Timeshare reception which is barely 300m from our house.

They charge only R220 pp and collect our guests at our front door, and only use qualified guides as per the law.

We hope to have you back in the near future!

Warm Regards,
Tim Parker

Fantastiese uitsig en uitstekende geriewe.

Naweekbesoek. Ons het 3 wildsritte bestel by die bush camp en al die Groot 5 gesien behalwe buffels. Ons kan dit rerig aanbeveel as 'n bestemming.

Fantastic view and excellent facilities.

Weekend visit. We booked 3 game drives at the bush camp and saw all the Big 5 except buffalo. We can highly recommend it as a destination.

Stunning, peaceful, breathtaking and magnificently beautiful!

We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary with friends who share same anniversary as us at Manzani River House for a week. We absolutely loved our stay and created many memories and had so many laughs. Thank you Tim for sharing your magnificent piece of heaven with us in your beautiful home on the Crocodile River where you see the sunrise and the sunset. Just breathtakingly beautiful.

An bushveld paradise.

The house is beautifully designed and well appointed. Loved the fact that we could sleep with the doors open because of the mozzie nets and screens. On the banks of the river, there is really no need to leave the house, I listened to elephants feeding at night while sitting on the deck. We did a few game drives and were incredibly lucky, we saw the big 5 including 5 different leopard. I will definitely book here again.

Unieke verblyf wat mens nie gou sal vergeet.

Huis is modern en gerieflik ingerig, waar jy net kan aflaai en ontspan. Ruim huis met baie beweegspasie selfs vir 'n groot groep mense. Met aankoms was ons verwelkom deur 'n leeuwyfie wat 'n vlakvark jaag reg voor ons, terwyl ons in die swembad ontspan. Die olifante het daagliks kom groet en die uitsig oor die Krokkedilrivier maak mens rustig. Hierdie is 'n wegbreekbestemming wat jy moet beleef. Eienaar was vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Vir seker 5 ster-verblyf.

Unique accommodation that one will not soon forget.

House is modern and comfortably furnished, where you can just unwind and relax. Spacious house with plenty of room to move around even for a large group of people. Upon arrival we were welcomed by a lioness chasing a warthog right in front of us, while we relaxed in the pool. The elephants came to say hello daily and the view over the Krokkedil River calms you down. This is a getaway destination that you must experience. Owner was friendly and very helpful. For sure 5 star accommodation.

Fantastic location and perfect vacation home.

Checks all the right boxes for a relaxed weekend in a luxurious home with views as far as the eye can see, better yet, from a rim flow pool.

Absoluut ongelooflik.

Manzini River House is 'n moet! Dit is baie ruim binne en die leef areas vul mekaar mooi aan. Die stoep met swembad en boma braai is ongelooflik. Het heerlik geswem terwyl ons na die wild gekyk het. Die boonste wildkyk dek is 'n absolute bederf en skemerkelkies is 'n beslis 'n goeie opsie. Ons het ongelooflik baie wild voor die huis gesien - leeuwyfie wat vlakvarke bekruip reg voor die huis, baie olifante, rooibokke, koedoes, waterbokke, sebras, kameelperde. Die huis is baie nuut en daar is sekere benodighede wat nog aangeskaf moet word, maar ek is seker hulle sal dit binnekort bekom. Die rus en vrede en pragtige ligging was ideaal vir ons groep. Ons was vir 2 ritte in die Mjejane wildtuin self en was aangenaam verras met die hoeveelheid wild wat ons gesien het. Ons het 4 van die Groot 5 gesien en baie algemene wild.

Absolutely incredible.

Manzini River House is a must! It is very spacious inside and the living areas complement each other nicely. The veranda with swimming pool and boma braai is incredible. Had a great swim while we watched the wildlife. The top game viewing deck is an absolute treat and cocktails are a definite good option. We saw an incredible amount of wildlife in front of the house - lioness stalking warthogs right in front of the house, lots of elephants, impalas, kudus, waterbucks, zebras, giraffes. The house is very new and there are certain necessities that still need to be procured, but I'm sure they will get them soon. The peace and quiet and beautiful location was ideal for our group. We went for 2 drives in the Mjejane game park itself and were pleasantly surprised with the amount of wildlife we saw. We saw 4 of the Big 5 and lots of common wildlife.
