Have a great rest and relax.
We were welcomed very kindly! The chalet is nice and clean and has basically everything you need for a weekend stay. Unfortunately, the unit we stayed in, Ngiri, had a king size bed that was not up to standard. These are 2 single beds that have been pushed against each other, and the mattress of one bed (left) is unfortunately yellowed and tattered. Really unpleasant to sleep on. The duvet is also too small for the size of the bed. We had a nice time next to the boma. Maybe just look at a little more comfortable chairs at the patio table. Otherwise it was also wonderfully quiet and we enjoyed it a lot. Would recommend Ngiri.

The place is very beautiful and nice and private. All that was very disappointing is that we could not do the archery. Asked twice and it was just too much trouble to put it up for us. We couldn't play pool either, but the sticks weren't quite and the balls were wet and had to drive out for the day for entertainment, which we wanted to do only on the spot.

For price, location, "self-catering" and purposes, it was adequate and quite peaceful. Very nice stay. Place needs some work/upgrading, but it's not that it causes discomfort. Wood porch deck needs to be checked, lots of cracks. My husband stepped through rotten wood, but fortunately was not hurt.

Good day Annemieke,
The deposit was paid, however, the account number that was provided was incorrect as it was difficult to determine if the last digit was a '9' or '10'. We contacted you to confirm the account number and you said they were correct. We attempted to pay the amount again and once again it was incorrect. We are trying to pay into this account but the account number is unclear.
We sent a WhatsApp message with all the extra cost details such as conservation fees and self-drive permits.

Disappointing.
On Friday night there was no water at the shower. We reported and on Saturday morning they fixed it, but then there was still no water at the sink taps. On Saturday afternoon, the water supply pipe burst and was quickly fixed. On Sunday morning, the pipe burst again, as did the "donkey". The 2-plate stove was leaking gas, which we also reported. I suggest that before guests are checked in, the unit is thoroughly inspected to make sure everything is in order. It seems that the leaks in the pipe have been like this for some time, as the ground has wet spots.

All disadvantage of the accommodation is that there is a donkey and they only put it on 2 times a day for hot water.

Apart from that we had a nice stay and the people are very helpful.

It rained cats and dogs all weekend but we were cozy and warm in our log cabin. We also had the privilege of seeing a whole pack of lions 2 days in a row. Regardless of the rain we could still drive to see wildlife and cook on the gas stove, there was always hot water and also a heater when it was so cold, which made us cozy. The De Wagensdrift road is a bit rough to drive on but that is definitely not the resort's fault. I recommend a long weekend there.

Long weekend getaway.
We can recommend Ngiri 100%. Very friendly and helpful staff. Campsite was beautiful and was clean and tidy. Same goes for the ablution pads. We had a great weekend and have no complaints about Ngiri itself. We'll see you again! The only thing that bothered was the big wedding on Saturday night opposite Ngiri at another lodge. Music was terribly loud and sounded like a show was being put on until the morning hours. Unfortunately, it took away the atmosphere for which one goes to Bosveld. But as we know, Ngiri as well as the other lodges and Dinokeng have no control over this.

The cabin was very comfortable. Everything you needed was there. Would have loved it if there was a coffee and milk and sugar with a biscuit. The shower is not made for tall people. The environment was so peaceful, only birds where you could hear. It was nice to be able to stay so deep in the forest, away from the hustle and bustle of the city and town.

First night we had to shower in cold water. No outside braai lights. No quadbikes was advertised on the premises. No boat safaris on the premises. No wildlife on the premises. Pool was dirty. The owner was rude.
Ngiri Safaris 's response
Thank you for your bias review
One the first night you say you had a cold shower. We did not receive a call from you on the night asking us to check the hot water. If we got a complaint or call we would have rectified it immediately. We cannot fix a problem after the fact.
The light by the balcony lights up the braai which is right next to the balcony. We do not want excess light as it takes away the dark bush experience.
We do not advertise quads on our premises. The quad biking is done outside the reserve as the reserve has big 5 and it is dangerous.
Again with regards to the boating we do not advertise boating on the premises. We do however take people fishing and also boat cruises on Rust de Winter Dam.
In the Ngiri Safaris premises there are Impalas, Duiker, Mongoose and Porcupine, The other animals are in the game reserve. Our premises have 20ha fenced out of the game reserve for the protection of our guests from dangerous game. We do not advertise that there is big 5 inside our fenced in area. We are situated right in the middle of the reserve.
Pool and pool area. You actually never came down to the pool. When you check out you even said you never used any of the facilities. Our pool is always clean as we do scuba courses and cannot have a dirty pool to teach scuba.
There is a chopping board I believe you did not see it. There is a glass dish for your meat. There is not a casserole dish as there is no oven to make a casserole only a 2 plate gas stove and then a braai area.
Our office hours are 08h00 until 18h00.
You called us at 07h19 on 22 December when you wanted to checked out and there was no reply as we were still closed. If you needed an early check out arrangements can be made to check out early of which you did not request one. When we opened the office I called you back and was told by yourself why am I calling you know I do not want to speak to you so I tried to explain the fees of Dinokeng and still you keep saying I did not want to speak to us. I then said to you that you need to take the fees up with the reserve as it has nothing to do with us, then thanked you for staying with us, wished you a Merry Christmas and said good bye.
You had a problem with paying the entrance fee for the Dinokeng Game Reserve which is a once off fee of R80 per adult and R50 per vehicle. This is shown on a board as you enter the reserve as well on all correspondence from Ngiri Safaris. It is also on our advert under rates and season then sub heading extras and fees.
There was never any problem or complaint from you during your stay or when you checked out. You said you enjoyed your stay very much. Only when you got to the reserve gate to leave and you had to pay the fees to Dinokeng Game Reserve did you have all these issues.
You clearly have issues with the payment of R210 to the Game Reserve which you should have taken up with the reserve and rated them instead of now reviewing us as a punishment for not stamping your ticket and giving you a free entrance to the reserve.

Cute little place with a very friendly welcome
We got an awesome friendly welcome. Sue and the team really tried to cheer us up when we arrived late without matches or ice. Accommodation is very cheap and the chalet is really very cute on the surface. What was an absolute disappointment for me is the bed. I was actually too afraid to sleep on it because I was afraid it would break. It's so sleepy you can't really let guests sleep on it. It's also hot and very uncomfortable because there is no mesh on the windows or air conditioning, so the nights were unbearably hot. Jewel of a place that would easily be an awesome getaway place with small changes. I hope to go there again, the units would be renovated a bit with new beds and just basic maintenance such as fixing taps, fixing plugs, fixing furniture that was broken, etc.

It was a very nice weekend. The house where we stayed is very nice and clean. The customer service was just not very good because it's owner is not available and we struggled with our payment because their machine didn't work and we had to make other arrangements. They keep the place nice and clean. The only other problem is that there is no hot water on demand. You have to light a donkey first and that didn't even work most of the time either.

The game drive offered by Sue was insightful and she stopped everytime anyone saw something, even when it was just a little buck we've seen many times before. The game was a bit scarce, not much to see - but it's nobody's fault! We had no problems with Ngiri Safaris. We had a wonderful private time! Thank you very much, Sue. We enjoyed it very much.

There are better options that give more value for money.
Chalets are neat and clean, and far apart. But there is no door / partition / curtain to the bathroom, and the wall between the living area and bathroom does not go up to the roof. So no privacy when you go to the bathroom, and all sounds and smells are shared with the whole family. Gas stove, but no matches. Floors are soapy, and all the mats (especially the bathroom) have no rubber on the bottom. Mattresses are cooked, very uncomfortable. Sofa in living area very unstable, can't sit on it. The clubhouse by the pool has a nice kitchen with cutlery and plates, but no dish towel or washcloth in sight to clean up where one spills. Open trash that is regularly 'rabbled' by the owners' pet mouse dogs. Pool table's top is torn to shreds, not usable. Owners have 2 tame mouse dogs (which they rescued as babies), very cute, but very troublesome. The mouse dogs bite and scratch people, get into the food bags, are all over people all the time. Safari trips: The afternoon trip left at 16:15, and we didn't come back until after 8 pm. Too long, and the last 45 minutes were rushed and awkward. Came back too late to grill, so the evening was over.

Comment 1. All our linen is taken off the beds after every client. I the owner am personally in charge of the housekeeping. I know for a fact that the linen was clean linen on all the beds.
Comment 2. The shower head was checked and found that someone had unscrewed the head hence the water spraying all over the place
Comment 3. The toaster has been checked and found nothing wrong with the toaster. You possibly did not plug it in. The toaster is not plugged in only the microwave and kettle.
Comment 4. All the dish clothes are washed in white vanish and the washing cloths are always new ones put in the units.
Comment 5. I had the outside lights checked and found nothing wrong with the lights (No shorts)
Comment 6. We live in a game reserve and will have flies. We have a weekly program of spraying for the flies and mossies.
Comment 7. I do not understand this comment at all. There is nothing wrong with the swimming pool. The pool is only 5 years only and is used for scuba diving courses.
Comment 8. We constantly do maintenance on the units and do not understand how one can make a statement like this as you are not present when we do the maintenance.
When you checked in you where unhappy with the sleeping arrangement. I believe you expected maybe 2 rooms instead of the one room. When you asked for another unit and is this you best unit the manager asked what the problem was and you replied that nothing can be done now. You never once told the manager or myself the owner about any of these complaints. If you thought the linen was not up to scratch you could have reported it and we would have changed it. If you reported the toaster we would have shown you that you had to plug it in. The Manager showed you how to turn the outside light and braai area on and there was no problem with it. I feel your comments are unjustified. All issues could have been easily resolved at the time of your stay should you have reported it.
Best Regards

We stayed 2 nights.
There was no time to drive through Dinokeng. The dirt roads to Ngiri are very poor. The log cabin is very warm. Reception was friendly. They could have just warned us in advance about the breakage deposit that was due. The environment is very beautiful and the wildlife is tame.

Very nice, grandma and I really enjoyed it.
The 4 km dirt road before the Ngiri exit is just very bad, and not made for a low car. The place and accommodation itself was very nice and me and grandma enjoyed it a lot. The Chalets are well located and very private and it is very peaceful. We rested well and were able to 'charge our batteries properly'. The game drive was also a very nice experience.

All right.
I would recommend that their activities are not that expensive and that not everything has to be paid for extra.

Very nice and peaceful.
It was a pleasure to just arrive there and be welcomed and be able to unpack... and to know that everything was already arranged by LekkeSlaap. The place is very nice, but there is little to do without having to pay extra for it. People who go without children to keep them busy might take a game or a deck of playing cards with them. But for those who want to rest, this is the right place!

Pleasant and peaceful!
Although the drought hindered the natural beauty, we still got to see wildlife. Very quiet and private for those who really want to get away for a moment of silence. Well located and not too far from home if you live in Pretoria. Hope Ngiri gets a lot of good rain soon which I believe will transform the area into a beauty of nature.

Comfortable place to stay for vacationers not for business.
The wooden cabins are very warm. It would be nice to have air cooling.
