Outstanding.
Truly a gem in the woods. On arrival Emanueel and Agnes were ready to receive us. Everything was clean and tidy. Accommodation was of high quality. Animals visited us often and we cooled off in the splash pool. Just had a great time relaxing. Not even load shedding could dampen us. Agnes made sure that everything was clean and tidy. 10 out of 10.

Quiet in nature.
We had such a great stay at Marty's Place. The rooms were very well equipped and it is so convenient that each room has an en suite bathroom. The braai area with the nice large porch certainly contributed to a very comfortable visit. The children really enjoyed the pool and it was so nice that the animals came to visit so often. The kitchen is very well equipped and has everything one could possibly need. The pictures are exactly what you get at Marty's Place. They are very friendly and also had a lot of patience with my children who had a lot of questions. They also made an effort to point out their animals. We will definitely visit again!

Had a great time, but the place needs attention.
Martys is excellently located and we had a great time with the animals. The owners are very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, the caretakers are not able to look after the place alone without supervision/guidance. Emanual has shown no effort to get the pool back into operation. Even after the pool services were called and showed him the ropes, he showed no interest in turning on the pool motor. He really does the bare minimum. Agnus is a sweetie, but she is short with a sore foot and so couldn't get on a chair to clean.

Marloth park is very peaceful, but accommodation was inconvenient.
Not at all what we expected, place was not very clean, cobwebs everywhere, etc. braai area was not clean, and sink by braai area was horribly dirty, had to scrub it myself. The hanging area by the kitchen is so hot, you can't even hang out there. Have to carry als downstairs to eat every time.

Beautiful place and well furnished.
Martys Place was really good value for money. We were 6 adults in a group. The caretakers, Angie and Emanuel, made us feel very welcome and cleaned the whole place every day. The pool was not as clean as desired. The water was cloudy with a layer of oil floating on it. The rooms and kitchen were spacious and very well appointed. We saw many animals that came to drink there. Martys Place is very well located and close to all restaurants and shops. Very nice porch and visiting area.

Good day, we are going for 2 weeks to Marty's during July and will see what the problem was. Emanual has been told if the guests want to play pool, give them the sticks. We had an incident where young children played on the table with no points on the sticks and tore the veld terribly. We had to replace the felt.

It was fun but certain things need to be looked at for safety.
The place lacks a water tank, without water for a day and a half, house help has to go to other places to fetch water. When it rains the outside stairs to the kitchen are wet and slippery and one of us fell there and fortunately no one was seriously hurt, it feels like sitting non slip on the stairs. The pool definitely needs attention, looks dirty and milky. The drains seem to be clogged, sinks, toilets and shower water is pushing up.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Ongelukkig sal afskortings die beweeging van die diere belemer. Die eienaar van Martys Place sal die saak opneem met die bure se kinders.
Die steuring van diere kan ook 'n groot gevaar wees vir mense, die diere in Marloth Park is wild.

My visit was not very pleasant, because one room's air conditioning that would not work properly.
I reported and the technician was supposed to come out on January 30th, which didn't happen and then he only came out on Sunday January 31st and did nothing about the problem. My wife and I tried to sleep in the hot room for 3 nights. The cooling pool was also not right and could not cool us down. The kitchen, which sits above and not below, makes it difficult for old people to walk up and down.

Restful.
Nice patio, liked that each room has its own bathroom, only the kitchen is a bit of a problem being upstairs, but otherwise we had a good time, just a shame that Agnes wanted us out so quickly on Monday morning to change the bedding was, when we were still taking a shower she was already taking the bedding off, I think Agnes should wait with cleaning until after the guests have left, we left at 8 o'clock, couldn't even have breakfast , was a little disappointed because we would have liked to have driven 10 hours first, wanted to treat my husband to breakfast because it was his birthday.

Was very calm.
It was very nice. Emanual and Agnes could have shown us how the pool worked. They didn't wash the pots either. The bedding was not 100% clean. The drains had been blocked and there had been no hot water for Friday. The snooker table had cue sticks, but no points. Furthermore, the place was very nice. The air cooling was definitely a plus. We saw many animals.

We had a lovely stay. The rooms are spacious and 3 of the bedrooms have air conditioning. The only issue was the fact that the kitchen is on the top floor and the rooms and braai area is at the bottom. You have to plan everything well if you don't want to climb the stairs again and again. We will be back!

We were a family with married children, so 6 adults. The two rooms with the double beds were lovely, but the bunk beds were back-breakers, especially because the man was very tall and could not let his feet hang over. We bought forage for the animals and enjoyed them very much, zebra, blue wildebeest, kudu, warthogs and the mongoose. Everything clean and tidy. Could make some improvements, eg. the sails that can not be opened, but we had a lovely stay, thank you very much.

A place where you can just relax, be one with nature and forget about everything outside.
Martys Place was a pleasant experience for us. Enough space with plenty of outside coolness, places to visit and relax. The 3 bedrooms on the lower level are spacious, each with its own external sliding door and comfortable bathroom. Personally, I would have preferred it if the bedrooms could be upstairs and the kitchen and social facilities were all downstairs. This would have eliminated the going up and down the stairs when you want to barbecue and enjoy the outdoors. If the zips of the furling sail sides on the upper level worked, visiting upstairs would probably have been nice too. Because it is so close to the Kruger National Park, we spent most of the time there every day. In Marlothpark we also saw a lot of wildlife even though the field there is mostly very rough.
