Good overnight place to stay.

The accommodation at Marlin Lodge is very good. We spent 1 night there. The rooms are comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. The staff are friendly and helpful.

"Home away from home."

Hierdie is nou 'n lekker blyplek. Ontvangs en ondersteuning van Isabel was uit die boonste rakke. Sy het ons gou laat welkom voel. Perseel, tuin en kamer was baie netjies en goed toegerus. Lekker naby aan die dorp. En dan daai ontbyt in die oggend - lekker, smaaklik met nogal keuses! Baie dankie, was regtig waardeer.

Goeie dag Nico

Wil net baie dankie se vir die ongelooflike mooi boodskap, ons waardeer dit vreeslik baie in die moeilike tye.

Kom kuier sommer gou weer met die familie.

Groete,

Johan, Ursula en Isabell

A very warm welcome, the hosts will do anything to make your stay memorable.

A warm welcome, rooms are nice and cosy with your own little veranda, very well done. Breakfast is sumptuous, and can be enjoyed inside or outside. The host is knowledgeable and willing to help you book your tour in or around St Lucia.

Ons het baie geniet op die plek.

Egte vakansieplek en die diere in die lake.

Goeie diens, mooi plek.

Als was goed en mooi maar geen TV in ons kamer nie het juis hulle gekies oor ons TV in ons kamer wou hê, ons moes heeltyd sitkamer toe gaan om TV te kyk, dan kon ons ander goedkoper plekke gevat het wat ook nie TV in die kamer het nie, sal volgende keer dubbel seker maak.

Good service, pretty place.

Everything was good and pretty but there wasn't as TV in our room and we chose them because we wanted a TV in our room. We had to go to the lounge to watch TV and we could've chosen cheaper places that doesn't have TV's in the room either. Will make sure next time.

Dit was 'n rustige, eenvoudige en netjiese verblyfervaring.

Marlin Lodge het 'n warm verwelkoming gebied te same met 'n baie netjiese, skoon kamer. Die kamer is toegerus met 'n dakwaaier en air-con wat baie gehelp het in die warm dae. Die stort was egter baie swak aangesien dit met tye slegs 'n klein stroompie water gespuit het en die temperatuur was nie konstant nie. Nog 'n swakpunt, was die feit dat die kamer die eerste 2 dae 'n sterk visreuk gehad het. Goeie vakansiebestemming wat net verbeter kan word.

It was a peaceful, simple and neat stay experience.

Marlin Lodge offered a warm welcome along with a very neat, clean room. The room is equipped with a ceiling fan and air-con which helped a lot in the hot days. However, the shower was very poor as it only sprayed a small stream of water at times and the temperature was not constant. Another weakness was the fact that the room had a strong fishy smell for the first 2 days. Good holiday destination that can only be improved.

Goeie dag Andre,

Ek is so jammer dat daar nie werk gemaak is aan die probleem met die stort.
Ons het intussen 'n hele ogradering gehad van die fasiliteite en al die badkamers is opgegradeer.
Hopelik sien ons julle in die nabye toekoms weer.
Groete,
Sonet

It was pleasant.

Bathroom facilities need to be improved for older persons, bath mats inadequate and slippery. And parents with small children who enjoy the pool must be restrained after 20h00.

Prima voor 1 nacht.

Ruime kamer, lekker koel. Badkamer is echt te klein. Deur kan met fatsoen niet open of dicht. Restaurant op perceel, dat is heel fijn.

Fine for 1 night.

Spacious room, nice and cool. Bathroom is really too small. Door cannot open or close properly. Restaurant on site, that is very nice.
