Ek is vreeslik jammer dat julle ongelukkig was tydens julle verblyf. Indien julle my dadelik laat weet het, kon ek die skoonmaakdienste se eienaar laat weet het en dit dadelik aangespreek het. Dit sou ook gehelp het as julle foto's geneem het, aangesien daar verskillende skoonmaakdienste vir verskillende eenhede verantwoordelik is.

We enjoyed our visit very much! Owner's instructions were very clear, and we had no problems. Location is fantastic, right by the little shop and activity center, very neat and clean, and the separate private treehouse next to the river is a big bonus! Saw a few bucks at the unit by the river every day! For 2 people, I would definitely recommend it for a great getaway! The only recommendation I would make is the addition of wifi which nowadays is basically a must for everyone.

One to never forget.
So we were part of the Mabalingwe fire that broke out. Pumba chalet is well equipped with everything one might need, we really appreciated the air conditioner especially the first day when we got there and it was hot. The shower with its incredibly good pressure was a big plus as many showers are a frustration for me. Linens could be upgraded a bit? The boma area's chairs were also not really clean when we got there, the cleaners might have to pay attention to that (lots of cobwebs and such). The warthogs came to surprise us, quite a few of them with the little ones, we enjoyed it tremendously. Pumba chalet is conveniently close to the pool area and restaurants. We visited the Vultures restaurant for the rugby and it really is a nice restaurant with a very nice view. Was at Kalahari Oasis also the day after the fire broke out while they were cleaning up. It still stands. And then a big thank you to Maretha who so nicely passed on all the arrangements to us and kept us informed of the fire danger so that we could evacuate in time and leave the reserve safely. She also offered to either compensate us for the 2 nights we had to miss or that we could book another weekend. We chose the second option as we definitely want to go back and "explore" further. It's a lovely reserve and I would definitely recommend it.

It was so fun! We had everything you need to just enjoy the time. The owners are friendly and helpful. We will definitely visit again! All the Pumbaa's who come to visit every day, the goats, birds etc. was definitely our highlight! Cleaning lady also friendly and tidy, she could only put more effort into wiping the place thoroughly before arrival and making sure everything is nice and clean, especially the toilet! But that's small compared to the unforgettable time we had! Thank you very much!

Very serious roof leak in the kitchen, due to the rain the kitchen was under water most of the weekend which caused the light and switch in the kitchen to trip the power all the time, so we couldn't use the kitchen. Cleaner just threw dry towels over all the water so I think they are aware of that. Kitchen was a mess all the time with the lot of rain of the weekend.

My parents and I booked Pumba A and B. The units have everything you could possibly need for self-catering and more! The verandas overlook the river course with lush, natural vegetation. The animals and birds literally come to visit you! Many thanks again to Maretha for all her efforts to check in regularly. Just about Mabalingwe in general: The coffee shop has delicious light lunches. Furthermore, make sure you pack everything, the store has very basic stock. It was also a shame to see the decay of the once lovely restaurant upstairs at reception as well as the strange hours they are open.

For some alone time and tranquility it is excellent!
The chalet met my requirements exactly! I manage and own shares in a busy guest house and now and then need to break away on my own. Couldn't have asked for better! The private boma earns extra points. I could make my own fire and calmly watch the ibex with a glass of wine. Thank you guys! I'm coming again!

Quiet stay in nature.
We booked 2 days at Pumba chalets before we would move to our timeshare. Pumba chalets are a very well maintained 2-bed unit. They have everything you need. The lot of rain ensured a special view, which we have not experienced in 30 years of visits to Mabalingwe. Although we experienced everything incredibly well, just one criticism. The fridge is very small for a self catering unit and the freezer section did not freeze and we were forced to carry our heavy camp freezer to the unit to keep our meat and ice frozen.

Absolutely fantastic! Would recommend to anyone anytime. Really first class!
On arrival we found the place clean and tidy. Coincidentally, the owners (Maretha and Andre) were in the chalet next door (the friendliest people you will ever meet). The unit really has everything you can think of that you will use e.g. plates, knives, forks, cups, pans etc. Note that this is "self-catering" so you still need to bring your own food, coffee, etc. but beyond that, everything you can think of is there. Something I should also say is we have a 3 year old boy, Maretha was kind enough to give us additional bedding for him to sleep on on the "sleeper couch". Everything is nice and clean, from the bathroom to the braai area. Maretha and Andre really made us feel at home. I would recommend the place to anyone anytime. Mabalingwe (the resort) itself was brilliant, we saw good game and the spawn is accessible even for small vehicles. Andre kept us informed every morning of where the buffalo, rhinoceros etc. were seen. In short, this is a really fantastic place, the owners are really friendly and went out of their way to make us feel at home and comfortable. 10/10!

Very friendly people but the wild animals that have become tame make it impossible to sit outside, no cleaning services.
The owners are very nice but the unit has no cleaning service. The braai facilities were dirty and full of dust. One cannot sit outside to eat breakfast or cook or even drink coffee. One goes to the forest precisely to sit outside. We had to stay inside all the time or rather drive. The monkeys take what they want when you are outside and the facilities are not cleaned. It smelled very strongly of the pigs defecating there. We like nature but facilities need to be cleaned. Everything was dirty on Sunday - guests can't clean the braai themselves. We would like to go to Mabalingwe again but rather in the chalets.

Neat, everything you need, very nice in the woods.
Although mainly small game, the wildlife is very active and is in great variety. The chalet is small, but comfortable for 2 people. Unfortunately, the outside porch is not screened and one effectively shares the same porch with neighbors. The boma for each unit is quite a surprise.
