Blerrie lekker plek!!!

Marlothi Chalets is beslis n plek wat ek weer sal besoek. Dis so rustig en die tuine is asemrowend. Die chalets is goe uitgelê met die nodigste en heerlik koel. Werner het ons laat tuis voel van dag 1 af. Hy is 'n ware gasheer en het met hulp, raad, kennis en staaltjies ons verblyf sommer nog beter gemaak.

Blerrie nice place!!!

Marlothi Chalets is definitely a place I will visit again. It's so peaceful and the gardens are stunning. The chalets are well laid out with the essentials and deliciously cool. Werner made us feel at home from day 1. He is a true host and made our stay even better with help, advice, knowledge and anecdotes.

Dit was baie aangenaam.

Die ontvangs was baie welkom. Ons is na ons huisie geneem baie skoon en netjies. Braai was lekker, kon braai onder afdak. Rustige nag gehad. Geen probleme van bure. Dit was baie lekker, sal weer soontoe gaan.

Pleasant welcome, to the quite basic accommodation.

Best to bring your own bath towels, as the accommodation might not provide any.

The host was very welcoming and helpful. Sadly the unit was dirty, and it is not suitable for more than 3 people. The walks from the location were challenging and beautiful.

The unit has not been cleaned before we arrived. There were gheko droppings on all the beds, and the floor. And every item in the kitchen had to be washed before we could use anything. A layer of grime on everything. The unit says it sleeps 5. But the upstairs is tiny and on almost vertical stairs. Not suitable for children, or anyone not fit, or who may need the toilet in the night.

Peaceful and relaxing.

Great place for a small to large group, my family and I had a great time, the hike was epic too. We had a great time at the hall since the weather was on and off. We will definitely return.

Telleurstellend.

Marlothi Chalets het moontlik 'n drie ster-gradering gehad maar nie meer nie. Werner was regtig behulpsaam en vriendelik maar die verblyf was teleurstellend. Die stort het geen deure gehad nie en was vervang met 'n stortgordyn wat tot gevolg het dat die hele badkamervloer onder water was na iemand gestort het en elke keer drooggemaak moes word. Dit was ongelooflik warm veral in die boonste kamer maar daar is geen waaiers of plafonwaaiers in die eenheid. Die matrasse is te groot vir die bedrame en hang oor aan die kante. Die matrasse is verder uitgelê en slaap ongemaklik. Die swembad was onbruikbaar. Ons het wel lekker op die stoep gekuier.

Disappointing.

Marlothi Chalets may have had a three star rating but no more. Werner was really helpful and friendly but the stay was disappointing. The shower had no doors and was replaced with a shower curtain which resulted in the entire bathroom floor being under water after someone took a shower and had to be dried each time. It was incredibly hot especially in the upstairs room but there are no fans or ceiling fans in the unit. The mattresses are too big for the bed frames and hang over the sides. The mattresses are further laid out and sleeping is uncomfortable. The pool was unusable. We did have a good time on the stoep.

'n Belewenis. Sal nooit weer na 'n ander plek toe gaan nie.

Die eienaar se kennis oor die omgewing en die feit dat hulle dit met jou deel kan nie gekoop word nie. Ons was elke dag iets meegedeel oor die geskiedenis van die omgewing. Riaan Vos, die seun, is 'n wandelende geskiedenishandboek. Ons dank aan Werner, Riaan, Elize en Poppie.

An experience. Will never go to another place again.

The owner's knowledge about the area and the fact that they share it with you cannot be bought. Every day we were told something about the history of the area. Riaan Vos, the boy, is a walking history textbook. Our thanks to Werner, Riaan, Elize and Poppie.

Aangenaam.

Die swembad was 'n teleurstelling. Dit was nie skoon nie. Dit het nie die kinders gepla nie, maar dit het my as ouer gepla. Ek het self baie min geswem omdat die water vuil was. Andersins was dit 'n baie goeie ervaring. Werner (die eienaar) het werklik uit sy pad gegaan om seker te maak dat ons alles het wat ons nodig het.

Pleasant.

The pool was a disappointment. It wasn't clean. It didn't bother the children, but it bothered me as a parent. I myself swam very little because the water was dirty. Otherwise, it was a very good experience. Werner (the owner) really went out of his way to make sure we got everything we needed.

Wonderful Stay

We were a group of 7 adults and 3 children. Werner and his wife are pleasant and made sure we were comfortable at all times. The chalets were neat and we felt at home the moment we arrived. On our 4th day we moved to the house which are very spacious and allowed the babies to move around more freely. We will definitely be going back to Marlothi. Thanks to Werner, Elize, and the family for making our stay unforgettable.
