Incredibly delicious.
Was really very nice and beautiful lodge with everything one's heart desires. Would recommend for a getaway in the woods. We were just unlucky not to see the elephants. Gotta go again!

Perfect woodland experience!
We had such a good time that we booked another night. The first night around the boma, the elephants visited the water hole right in front of the house and even drank water from the pool. It was an unforgettable experience. Goats and warthogs were also constantly seen at the waterhole. The children enjoyed it immensely. You feel part of nature. The location is also ideal. It is close to the main entrance and other amenities. The place is very nice and well furnished.

OK.
Didn't have the best stay but that was all due to Loadshedding.

Spacious house with all the amenities for a large group/family. Swimming pool with nice recreation area.
Ideally located for game drives. No game drive vehicle. Water hole right in front of the house where even the elephants came to drink! Sufficient and beautiful cutlery and serving plates. Please invest in a new set of steak knives. There are Magneto lights but bring lights for use during loadshedding - no generator.

Hi Lucille
Baie dankie dat u die moeite gedoen het om kommentaar te lewer. Ons sal die steakmessse uitsorteer. Wildritte is beskikbaar en kan by ontvangs gereel word maar ons het nie 'n voertuig wat beskikbaar is nie. Die onlangse skielike toename in beurtkrag en die problematiese vooruitsigte skep 'n probleem en ons is tans besig met 'n projek om te kyk na die meriete van 'n sonkrag stelsel en hoop om dit binnekort te finaliseer.
Nogmaals dank.

Perfect place for weekend in the woods.
We had an amazing time in this house. The weekend was hopelessly too short. The owner and also the employees at Nageng Lodge Mabalingwe were very helpful. The rooms are spacious and the air conditioning makes the terrible heat of the forest manageable. The house is equipped with everything you need and more. We will definitely go again.

Family reunion in the woods.
We had a family reunion. Last saw my sister and her family 8 years ago when they immigrated to England. Their children's first time in the forest and Naneng made for many beautiful memories. The animals come so close to home. The waterhole is visited in the early morning and late afternoon by giraffes, all kinds of goats, warthogs, birds and elephants. It's very quiet and you can really stretch out. The fires in the boma and inside the house in the fireplace made the winter evenings pleasant and we had so much fun hanging out and cooking in the beautifully equipped kitchen. Played cards, board games and chatted late into the night. The house is fully equipped, with even facilities for load shedding, such as lamps and a gas stove for making coffee. The rooms were comfortable and the beds comfortable. Nothing we would change. Would highly recommend Naneng, a home away from home!

Very nice spacious house, perfect for family. The only comment is that the porch's roof leaked with the heavy rain, but it didn't spoil the holiday. The house is modern and perfect for large groups. The owner communicated well with us. We even saw the elephants right by our porch.

Enjoy a peaceful weekend with friends and family. The waterhole attracts many animals on a regular basis. Very nice and beautiful place.
Great time with a large group of family and friends. Enough seating and space for everyone. Plekkie unfortunately did not have steak knives, and additional towel hooks in the bathrooms would be convenient. Other than that our stay was excellent and the service couldn't be better.

Ons gaan onmiddelik die steak messe aanskaf en sal ook die tekort aan badkamer hakkies/houers ens. regstel.

Safe, quiet and luxurious.
Animals can come close to the house at the water hole. Very nice place to visit inside and outside. Each luxury room has its own bathroom. Home has everything you need, even the things you usually forget at home. One can, if the weather is very bad, barbecue inside the house. Children have their "own place" in the upper room. Will definitely recommend.

Good Day Karin,
Thanks for the review and for bringing it under our attention.
We make use of an outside cleaning service and will definitely take it up with them.
Nageng is in the bush and with August and September being very dry and windy it is difficult to keep all the lodge totally dust free.
We hope we can welcome you back soon.

We had an amazing time!
We were 5 families, all with small children. Had no problems and really enjoyed the stay. Although it is located quite close to the gate, we didn't feel for one moment that we were missing anything from Mabalingwe! The goats and warthogs often stopped by and came right up to the children. Will definitely come again!
