Pragtige bosveld omgewing met die natuur musiek van 'n jakkels roep is besonders.

Ons het lekker gebly.

Will go back.

It was clean and had hot water in the morning and evening to shower (big plus). Beautiful view from the Punda Unit, very private and had all we needed for a great stay. Staff was friendly and very accommodating. Will definitely go back and recommend for a quick break away from the city.

Enjoyed my morning coffee with the impala as company.

I had a lovely relaxing weekend away from the city! The accommodation was neat and clean. One of the highlights was waking up to the beautiful sunrise, sipping coffee, watching the impala take in the first morning light just metres away.

Lekker innie Bos by Ngiri Safaris.

Die Punda Chalet is heerlik privaat met 'n mooi uitsig teen Ngiri se grenslyn. Die ten volle toegeruste kombuis, gemaklike bed en kraakvars handdoeke & linne en fyner aandag aan detail het ons verblyf lieflik afgerond. Ons sal vir seker weer by Ngiri gaan kuier.

Die blyplek is mooi, netjies en baie rustig. Dis maklik om daar uit te kom en kommunikasie is goed. Toe 'n massiewe storm uitbreek en die tent 'n bietjie nat geword het, het die gasvryheid van die gasheer baie goed vertoon.

Heerlik gerus en ontspan.

Ons is baie vriendelik verwelkom! Die chalet is mooi skoon en netjies en het basies alles wat mens nodig het vir 'n naweek se verblyf. Ongelukkig was die eenheid waarin ons gebly het, Ngiri, se koningsgrootte bed nie op standaard nie. Dit is 2 enkelbeddens wat teen mekaar geskuif is, en die een bed (links) se matras is ongelukkig deurgele en vodde. Regtig onaangenaam om op te slaap. Die duvet is ook te klein vir die grootte van die bed. Ons het lekker gekuier langs die boma. Miskien net kyk na 'n bietjie gemakliker stoele by die patio tafel. Andersins was dit ook heerlik stil en ons het dit baie geniet. Sal Ngiri aanbeveel.

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.

Rustig en goed vir die siel.

Die plek is baie mooi en lekker privaat. Al wat baie disappointing was, is dat ons nie die archery kon doen nie. Het twee keer gevra en dit was net te veel moeite om dit vir ons op te slaan. Ons kon ook nie pool speel nie, maar was nie heel stokke nie en balle was nat en moes maar die dag uitry vir vermaak wat ons graag net op die plek wou doen.

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.

Vir prys, ligging, "self-catering" en doeleindes was dit voldoende en heel rustig. Baie lekker gebly. Plekkie kort bietjie werk/opgradering, maar dis nie dat dit ongemak veroorsaak nie. Hout stoep dek moet nagegaan word, baie krake. My man het deur vrot hout getrap, maar gelukkig nie seer gekry.

Verblyf was ok gewees, warm water 'n probleem veral in oggende, donkie vuur aangesteek in oggend maar nie gekyk of dit goed brand nie en het gevrek met gevolg koue water. Instandhouding nie te goed op verblyf nie, stortkop is erg goed.

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.

Good value for money. Well managed. Enjoy the tranquility in the bush.

Clean and neat with all the amenities that are required for a quiet getaway. No WiFi though, which I needed a few times, but that was because of my needs, not because I can't live without being connected to the world. Otherwise a lovely stay. A big thank you to the gentleman that lit our donkey fire twice daily, always friendly. The sand road getting to their gate is horrendous, with terrible corrugations, but nothing that the lodge can do about that, they rely on the authorities to maintain it.

The property gate was unfortunately on manual due to lightning from the storm the night before. We were promised that this was being resolved, but it never got attended to. The bottom main gate was also faulty, and we often had to divert our path to avoid it in order to get out into the reserve. The remote provided did not work. The stove within the unit had faulty knobs, and the fridge didn't work; the freezer worked, but not the fridge. The images shown on the website indicated a portable aircon, however, there was only a fan in the room which we left on throughout the night to keep cool. The pool was also not working due to the same lightning issue from the night before. The shower had poor pressure and was only usable with gas.

We enjoyed our private accommodation.

Very nice and private, bed very comfortable, perfect size fridge, hot water and water pressure all good. Only 2 negative points were the dirt road was way too busy until late at night. And the fan in the room didn't mean anything. We enjoyed our stay.

A place to rest and recharge.

We thoroughly enjoyed our rustic stay in the bush and the peaceful nights. The chalet, though simple, was comfortable and had everything we needed. However, we would like to bring the following issues to your attention, especially considering the R500 refundable breakage deposit required per unit in cash. The bed linen appeared quite tired, and the shower and toilet mats were worn and well past their prime. The toaster was not functioning, and the frying pan had a loose handle. The double bunk bed was unstable and essentially unusable, which could pose a safety risk. Fortunately, we did not have our grandchildren with us on this trip.

Teleurstellend.

Die Vrydagaand was daar nie water by die stort nie. Ons het aangemeld en Saterdagoggend het hulle dit reggestel, maar toe was daar steeds geen water by die wasbank se krane nie. Saterdagmiddag het die watertoevoerpyp gebars en is vinnig reggestel. Sondagoggend het die pyp weer gebars, asook die "donkie". Die 2-plaat stofie het gas gelekt, waaroor ons ook aangemeld het. Ek stel voor dat voordat gaste ingeboek word, die eenheid deeglik deurgegaan word om seker te maak dat alles in orde is. Dit blyk dat die lekplekke in die pyp al geruime tyd so is, aangesien die grond nat kolle het.

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.

Van die oggend van in check was pynloos. Tatum het al vroeg laatweet ons eenheid is in orde en ons kan vroeër incheck. Die wildrit was amazing! Die eenheid was super netjies en goed ingerig. Tatum het gereeld laatweet van "sightings" vir selfdrive. Ons sal verseker weer Ngiri besoek. 100keer aanbeveel!

Die heerlikste rustigste tyd in die bosveld.

Ek en my man het werklik ons tydjie hier vreeslik geniet. Die ablusiegeriewe was perfek. Ons kon vir ons lekker etes voorberei in die kombuis. Die stort en toilette was netjies en skoon. Die omgewing om ons tent was mooi netjies en skoon, en ons het so lekker geslaap. Die heerlikste wegbreek wat ons in 'n baie lang tyd beleef het. Sal dit werklik graag weer wil doen.

As a self-catering lodge, the norm is not to supply tea or coffee. Unfortunately, we have supplied that but not everyone drinks milk. Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate for different dietary requirements.

If you want to be alone with no disturbances this is most definitely the way to go!

Perfect place to re-centre yourself. No technological disturbances and just quiet. The most amazing wake-up in the mornings. The donkey system is used and adjusted to your schedule. If loadshedding bothers you bring some backup but light is provided and is more than sufficient. Boma area is amazing to sit by under the stars which shine so much brighter out there. The cabins are cosy and absolutely beautiful. The staff and owners are so friendly! Will definitely be returning!

Verblyf om troue by te woon in die area.

Al nadeel van die verblyf is dat daar 'n donkie is en hulle sit dit net 2 keer 'n dag aan vir warm water. Ongelukkig sit hulle dit ook aan wanneer mens op die wildrit gaan so wanneer mens terugkom is daar nie warm water nie. Ons eerste oggend het ons nie warm water gehad nie, maar wel die tweede oggend. Behalwe vir dit het ons lekker gebly en die mense is baie behulpsaam.

Accommodation to attend wedding in the area.

All disadvantage of the accommodation is that there is a donkey and they only put it on 2 times a day for hot water. Unfortunately, they also turn it on when you go on the game drive so when you come back there is no hot water. Our first morning we didn't have hot water, but the second morning we did. Apart from that we had a nice stay and the people are very helpful.

Alles was goed gewees, net jammer daar was nie melk of room vir die koffie nie. Klein oversight. Niks ernstig nie, meer swembaddens sou kon help – een vir die kothuise en een vir die chalets. Jou volgende vraag oor onverwagte kostes op my rekening? Ek weet nie omdat ek nog nie my "Breakage deposit" teruggekry het nie, so sal nie weet of daar skielike koste is nie. Dankie.

Quiet and calm.

Stay was nice. Would like to see a shower curtain installed between the toilet and shower for privacy. Hand controls in the shower are recommended for safety. There was no inventory of equipment in the unit. There were several flaws in the kitchenware that I relayed to our guide. No feedback has been received to date.

Nice and quiet.

Very nice place to name would only make a few suggestions to put some extra blankets somewhere for the winter days, as also the bunker beds are a bit unbalanced and move around and mattresses on beds uncomfortable.

Baie lekker weg vanaf jou eie huis. Gasvrou gaan uit haar pad om aan jou benodigdhede te voldoen.

Net vrek warm in die eenhede, 'n lugversorger kan nogal handig inkom, mits daar krag gaan wees. Hoofpad is al baie sinkplaat gery en kan dalk doen met 'n skraap. Baie om te doen rondom verblyf. Gordynkapstok kan dalk net vasgemaak word, het 2 maal op my geval, gelukkig sonder besering.

Very nice away from your own home. Hostess goes out of her way to meet your needs.

Just damn hot in the units, an air conditioner can come in quite handy, provided there is going to be power. Main road has been covered with corrugated iron and could do with a scrap. Lots to do around accommodation. Curtain rod might just be fixed, fell on me 2 times, luckily without injury.

Lekker om te rus.

Ongelukkig met loadshedding was vensters toe, geen net op vensters nie, die geriewe ook ver van waar 'n mens slaap, moet ry om te gaan eet, om te gaan swem.

It was a nice getaway in the woods.

I would only advise that they put more effort into lighting in the chalet during loadshedding. There is one small lamp that one must make use of. They can bring in more lamps. It must also be arranged that cleaners are arranged on weekends.

Van die beste.

Die eienaar Tatum is die beste, baie vriendelik en professioneel, baie goeie diens van haar gekry. Die eenheid was baie skoon en netjies en niks het kort gekom nie, alles het baie goed gewerk. Ons sal julle enige tyd weer kom besoek. Baie veilige verblyf agter wild heining. Ngiri is redelik sentraal geleë in Dinokeng wat die rondry baie vergemaklik. Sal hulle enige tyd aanbeveel.

Heerlik rustig.

Dit het katte en honde gereën die hele naweek maar ons was snoesig en warm in ons houthuisie. Ons het ook die voorreg gehad om 2 dae agtermekaar 'n hele trop leeus te sien. Ongeag van die reën kon ons nog ry om wild te kyk en kos maak op die gasstoof, daar was altyd warm water en ook 'n verwarmer toe dit so koud was, wat ons snoesig gemaak het. Die De Wagensdrift-pad is bietjie rof om te ry maar dit is definitief nie die oord se skuld nie. Ek beveel 'n langnaweek daar aan.

Wonderfully peaceful.

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.

Beautiful bush getaway in the beautiful Dinokeng.

Ngiri staff were so accommodating and did a flawless check-in and tour on our arrival, despite loadshedding and borderline darkness. The communal kitchen area has every imaginable utensil for your use and a gas stove so you can have hot food and drinks even when the power is out. The boma area made for a perfect braai spot for our group to enjoy. The ablutions are well maintained, but there is no door beyond the shower curtain, so if you are getting changed in the bathroom and someone were to walk in, you would be in full view. Perhaps an extra curtain? This was the only small suggestion from our side. Otherwise, a wonderful stay and exceptionally friendly staff.

Langnaweekwegbreek.

Ons kan Ngiri 100% voorstel. Baie vriendelike en behulpsame personeel. Kampterrein was pragtig en was skoon en netjies. Selfde geld vir die ablusieblokke. Ons het 'n wonderlike naweek gehad en het geen klagtes oor Ngiri self nie. Ons sien julle weer! Die enigste ding wat gepla het was die groot troue Saterdagaand oorkant Ngiri by 'n ander lodge. Musiek was vreeslik hard en het geklink asof daar 'n show opgesit word tot oggendure toe. Ongelukkig het dit die atmosfeer weggeneem waarvoor 'n mens Bosveld toe gaan. Maar soos ons weet, het Ngiri asook die ander lodges en Dinokeng nie beheer hieroor nie.

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.

Dit was die lekkerste wegbreek ooit. Ons het gerus en glo my, daar rus jy.

Die cabin was baie gerieflik. Alles wat jy nodig gehad het was daar. Sou net daarvan gehou het as daar 'n koffie en melkie en suiker met 'n beskuitjie was. Die stort is nie vir lang mense gemaak nie. Die omgewing was so rustig, net voëltjies waar jy hoor. Dit was lekker om so diep in die bos te kon bly, weg van die gewoel van die stad en dorp.

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.

Camping side needs to be improved to bring it up to standard.

We enjoyed our stay. Tent was fine. But the area of Dinokeng should not be advertised as a Big 5 area because it is not. Very disappointing, very little game. The braai facilities are not up to scratch. No hot water for our showers on the second night. The lights kept tripping. No stove to cook on even though fully equipped kitchen is advertised.

Ons het 'n vlermuis en 'n paar goggatjies in die kamer gehad, maar dis te verwagte met 'n eenheid wat so direk in die veld is.

Very nice. In the woods and private.

Each unit is completely on its own. This means that you can visit in private. The hostess was very helpful in terms of help about the reserve. The donkey's water is nice and warm. We had a bat and a few bugs in the room, but that's to be expected with a unit that is so directly in the field.

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.

No carving board to chop food. No casserole for meat. Owner even dropped phone in my ear when I complained.

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.

We had a wonderful time at Ngiri Safaris. There was plenty to do, just wish we had more time. We didn't see any of the Big 5 but we still had a great game drive and saw lots of impala, zebra, giraffe, warthog, ostrich and wildebeest.

Asemrowende ligging.

Dit was 'n baie lekker naweek. Die huisie waar ons gebly het is baie mooi en skoon. Die kliëntediens was net nie baie goed nie want dit eienaar is nie beskikbaar nie en ons het gesukkel met ons betaling want hulle masjien het nie gewerk nie en ons moes ander reëlings tref. Hulle hou die plek mooi skoon en netjies. Die enigste ander probleem is dat daar nie warm water on demand is nie. Mens moet eers 'n donkie aansteek en dit het ook die meeste van die tyd nie eers gewerk nie.

Breathtaking location.

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.

Fantasties

Ons is vriendelik ontvang deur Sue se huishulp. Ek het nie die regte kleingeld gehad met betaling nie en so waar as wragtig het ek dit terug gekry saam met my sleutel deposito! Die wildrit wat Sue aangebied het was insiggewend en sy het gestop as enige iemand iets gesien het, al was dit 'n ou bokkie wat ons al baie gesien het. Die wild was maar 'n bietjie aan die skrapse kant, het nie baie te sien gekry nie - maar dit is niemand se skuld nie! Ons het geen probleme gehad met Ngiri Safaris nie. Ons het 'n heerlike privaat tydjie gehad! Baie dankie, Sue. Ons het dit baie geniet. Sal beslis weer kom inloer!

Fantastic.

We were kindly received by Sue's domestic worker. I did not have the right amount of money on me with payment but I got it back with my key deposit. 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. Will definitely visit again!

Onaangenaam met die eienaar wat oor mens praat om te sê hoe hard sy werk en suksesvol haar Safaris is, maar nie 3 sekondes stilbly om te luister na ons vertoë nie.

Dit was regtig vir ons onaangenaam. Ons het gegaan om my man se 57ste verjaarsdag stil te gaan vier, maar 2 dae sonder krag, sonder een verskoning van die eienaar. Ek het foto's van die meubels se haglike toestand, sou julle belangstel.

Heerlike bosveldervaring, ons hoef nie uit ons huisie te gegaan het om diere te sien nie. Daar het 'n kameelperd langs die heining verbygeloop en 'n trop bokkies het daagliks verby ons huisie geloop. Die huisies is goed ingerig, skoon en ruim. So dankbaar ons honde-kinders kon saam gaan.

Was heerlik. Maar daar was feitlik geen wilde diere in sig op die perseel nie. Moes orals ry om aan aktiwiteite deel te neem.

Yskas was stukkend. Verblyf kan gerus kyk na 'n "geyser", die "donkie" laat alles soos rook ruik. Oulike verblyf vir ouer paartjies, maar absoluut niks vir gesinne met jonger kinders om te doen nie by Ngiri nie.

Was delicious. But there were virtually no wild animals in sight on the premises. Had to drive everywhere to participate in activities.

Fridge was broken. Accommodation can feel free to look at a "geyser", the "donkey" makes everything smell like smoke. Cute accommodation for older couples, but absolutely nothing for families with younger children to do at Ngiri.

Heel rustig, maar het baie min diere gesien.

Die grootste negatief en ook die rede hoekom ek dit nie sal aanbeveel nie, is die nabyheid van die deurpad met gepaardgaarde padverkeer geraas. Ons het ook die Saterdagaand laat nog die bure se musiek gehoor, wat baie steurend is vir 'n bos-verblyf. Dit was nie op Ngiri self nie, maar een van die ander nabygeleë bure.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Quite peaceful, but saw very few animals.

The most negative thing and the reason why I won't recommend it, is the closeness of the road that goes through the area, and the noise of traffic that comes with it. We also heard the neighbours' music until late the Saturday night, which is very disturbing for a bush-accommodation. It wasn't at Ngiri but at one of the neigbours close by.

Daar is beter opsies wat meer waarde vir geld gee.

Chalets is netjies en skoon, en ver uitmekaar. Maar daar is geen deur / afskorting / gordyn na die badkamer nie, en die muur tussen die leefarea en badkamer gaan nie tot by die dak nie. So geen privaatheid as mens badkamer toe gaan nie, en alle klanke en geure word gedeel met die die hele familie. Gasstoof, maar geen vuurhoutjies. Vloere is seepglad, en al die matjies (veral die badkamer) het geen rubber onderaan nie. Matrasse is gaar, baie ongemaklik. Bank in leefarea baie onstabiel, kan nie daarop sit nie. Die klubhuis by die swembad het mooi kombuis met eetgerei en borde, maar geen vadoek of waslap in sig om skoon te maak waar mens mors nie. Oop asblik wat gereeld 'geraid' word deur die eienaars se mak muishonde. Pooltafel se blad is flenters geskeur, nie bruikbaar nie. Eienaars het 2 mak muishonde (wat hulle as babatjies gerescue het), baie cute, maar baie lastig. Die muishonde byt en krap mens, klim in die kossakke in, is die heeltyd op en oor mens. Safari ritte: Die middagrit het 16:15 vertrek, en ons het na 8 pm eers teruggekom. Te lank, en die laaste 45 minute was gejaagd en ongemaklik. Te laat teruggekom om nog te braai, so die aand was daarmee heen.

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.

Onvergeetlike ervaring wat ek vir enige vriendekring/gesin sal aanbeveel.

Wat 'n lekker naweek! Dwayne (die gids) het ons vriendelik verwelkom en vinnig gehelp as ons iets nodig gehad het! Netjiese, veilige, rustige, fantastiese plek met die Groot 5 en baie aktiwiteite! Die rustige natuurskoon veroorsaak dat mens nie wil huistoe gaan nie! Sal dit beslis aanbeveel!

Nie die geld werd nie.

Die een bed se linne was nie skoon nie, en die matrasse was uitgeslaap. Die stort het oraloor gelek. Die broodrooster het nie gewerk nie en die kombuis se vadoeke was vuil. Die buitelig het 'n kortsluiting gehad. Daar was 'n plaag van vlieë. Die swembad het beter dae gehad. Daar word glad nie herstelwerk gedoen nie.

Not worth the money.

The one bed's linen was not clean, and the mattresses were worn out. The shower was leaking all over the place. The toaster didn't work and the kitchen towels were dirty. The exterior light had a short circuit. There was a plague of flies. The pool has seen better days. No repairs are done at all.

Thank you for your comments.

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.

Ons het 2 nagte oorgeslaap.

Daar was nie tyd om Dinokeng deur te ry nie. Die grondpaaie na Ngiri is baie swak. Die houthut is baie warm. Ontvangs was vriendelik. Hulle kon ons net vooraf gewaarsku het oor die breekskadedeposito wat betaalbaar was. Die omgewing is baie mooi en die wild is mak.

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.

Baie lekker, ek en ouma het dit baie geniet.

Die 4 km grondpad voor die Ngiri-afrit is net baie sleg, en nie gemaak vir 'n lae kar nie. Die plek en verblyf self was baie lekker en ek en ouma het dit baie geniet. Die Chalets is goed geleë en baie privaat en dit is baie rustig. Ons het lekker gerus en kon ons 'batterye behoorlik laai'. Die wildrit was ook 'n baie lekker ervaring.

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.

Baie lekker en rustig.

Dit was 'n plesier om net daar aan te kom en verwelkom te word en te kon afpak ... en te weet als was klaar gereël deur LekkeSlaap. Die plek is baie mooi, maar daar's 'n bietjie min om te doen sonder om eksra daarvoor te moet betaal. Mense wat gaan sonder kinders om hulle besig te hou, vat dalk 'n speletjie of 'n pak speel kaarte saam. Maar vir dié wat wil rus, is dit die regte plek!

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!

Aangenaam en rustig!

Alhoewel die droogte die natuurskoon belemmer het, het ons nogtans wild te siene gekry. Baie rustig en privaat vir diegene wat regtig wil wegbreek vir 'n oomblik van stilte. Goed geleë en nie te ver van die huis as jy woonagtig is in Pretoria. Hoop Ngiri kry gou baie en goeie reën wat ek glo die area in 'n prag van natuurskoon laat omskep.

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.

Peaceful, relaxing and I recommed it to anyone for a getaway from the city life.

It was a quiet and relaxing stay for my husband and myself. Especially because we travelled from quite a ways away, in order to relax without hearing the sounds of the city. It is very secure and lovely to watch the animals walk past with absolute freedom. I recommend it to anyone, for family stays or even just a romantic stay with your partner.

Thank you to our hosts who made us feel very welcome. I know it is a SAFARI but perhaps a mirror close to a plu would help us ladies to "do our thing" a little easier. Lamps did not work and it was VERY dark at night. Other than that, a lovely experience!
