Baie aangename mense en heerlike geriewe.

Yolande het ons baie vriendelik ontvang al was dit al baie laat. Geriewe is mooi skoon en netjies. Het letterlik net oornag. Was heerlik.

Lekker oornag stop vir Moz met lekkerste seekos!

Ons het vreeslik lekker gebly, die restaurant se kos is baie lekker, dalk net 'n bietjie duur. Die kamers kan dalk 'n opknap kry, maar verder was ons heel gelukkig.

'n Belewenis vir "Royalty", dis hoe jy behandel word.

Wat 'n wonderlike paar dae. Ons is so welkom laat voel of ons familie is en hulle kon nie genoeg vir ons doen nie om ons verblyf aangenaam te maak nie. Hulle doen dit met soveel grasie sonder om om jou te hang, maar alles is daar! Dankie, sal julle altyd aanbeveel. Julle verdien 'n 5 ster gradering. Nou verstaan ek hoekom ons personeel altyd vra om by julle te bly as hulle vir opleiding gaan.

What a wonderful few days. We were made to feel so welcome as if we were family and they couldn't do enough for us to make our stay enjoyable. They do it with such grace without hanging around you, but everything is there! Thank you, will always recommend you. You guys deserve a 5 star rating. Now I understand why our staff always ask to stay with you when they go for training.

Julle diens is van 5 ster gehalte en kan enige tyd aanbeveel word, of sakereis of net vir vakansie. Dis nie die eerste keer dat ons daar oorbly nie en was elke keer soos VIP's ontvang. Dankie om ons tydjie daar so spesiaal te maak, dit word opreg waardeer. Sien julle volgende jaar weer!

Hierdie is die perfekte oornag-plek. Na 'n baie lang dag op die pad was die ruim, silwerskoon kamer met sy wit linne en lugversorger soos 'n stukkie paradys.

Hannes, die eienaar, het uit sy pad uit gegaan om ons te akkommodeer op baie laat kennisgewing en toe word ons nog vertraag op die pad maar dit het nie sy vriendelikheid gedemper nie. 'n Lieflike plek en werklik waarde vir geld.

This is the perfect overnight accommodation. After a very long day ons the road, the spacious, spotlessly clean room with its white linen and aircon was like a piece of paradise.

Hannes, the owner, went out of his way to accommodate us on very short notice and then we were delayed en route, but this didn't dampen his friendliness. A lovely place and really good value for money.

Dit het gevoel soos my huis. Dit was so gemaklik en die plek is baie netjies. Sal weer daar inboek.

Personeel baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Jy word behandel soos iemand wat al jare vriende is met die personeel. As jy by die restaurant eet, maak seker jy eet nie iets voor die tyd nie, die kos is van die beste gehalte en glo my as jy begin eet wil jy nie op hou nie so lekker word dit voorberei. Die personeel by die restaurant kom gesels met jou of jy ou vriende is met hulle en jy word op die hande gedra. Jou motor en sleepwa of wat jy ook al saam met jou het is baie veilig. Daar is 'n nagwag so ouens kom en gaan kuier gerus maar daar oornag. Jy kan verseker wees jy kan die hele aand slaap sonder om bekommerd te wees oor jou voertuie. Hannis het uit sy pad gegaan om ons gemaklik en tuis te laat voel. Jy slaap in 'n heerlike lug verkoelde kamer so mense jy gaan nie vrek van die hitte nie, die mense kyk na hul gaste. Dit is in die toekoms my enigste oornagplek. Hoop julle ondervind dit net so lekker soos ons.

It felt like my home. It was so comfortable and the place is very neat. Will check in there again.

Staff very friendly and helpful. You are treated like someone who has been friends with the staff for years. If you eat at the restaurant, make sure you don't eat anything ahead of time, the food is of the best quality and believe me, once you start eating you won't want to stop, it's so delicious it's prepared. The staff at the restaurant come to talk to you or you are old friends with them and you are carried on their hands. Your car and trailer or whatever you have with you is very safe. There is a night guard so guys come and go and visit but spend the night there. You can rest assured that you can sleep all night without worrying about your vehicles. Hannis went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and at home. You sleep in a lovely air cooled room so people you won't die from the heat, the people look after their guests. This is my only stopover in the future. Hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Een nag oor gebly. Puik gasvryheid, netjies goed toegeruste verblyf.

Ons was op hoogte gehou van omtrent vier weke voor aankoms. Dit was nie eenkeer nodig om die eienaars te skakel om finale reëlings te bevestig. Skoon veilige verblyf. Het oorgeslaap vir een nag op pad na Mosambiek. Tweede keer hier gebly en sal dit weer bespreek.

Aangename ondervinding. Het alles wat jy benodig om lekker en veilig te slaap.

Ideaal vir die besoeker aan die Krugerwildtuin. Die kamers by Tambarina is groot en netjies toegerus met die noodsaaklike. Stil omgewing en Hannes en sy personeel is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Beveel dit beslis aan as jy wil oornag voor jy by die Wildtuin-hek ingaan.
