Uistekend.

Besonder lekker gebly. Abel was te enige tyd baie behulpsaam met inligting en my vrou gehelp met WiFi toegang. Die diere was elke aand reg by ons chalet en ons het baie foto's geneem. Die twee jackies was ook baie vriendelik en met groot gejuig elke middag ons verwelkom na die Marakele uitstappie.

Excellent.

Had a particularly nice stay. Abel was very helpful at any time with information and helped my wife with WiFi access. The animals were right at our chalet every night and we took lots of pictures. The two jackies were also very friendly and welcomed us to the Marakele excursion every afternoon with great cheer.

Lekker bosveld kuier.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, so in die Bosveld. Net nota: lugverkoeling is nie in die slaapkamer nie, net in die leefarea gedeelte. Dalk net 'n ekstra waaier inpak vir die slaapkamer.

Nice woodland walk.

We had a very nice stay, so in the Bosveld. Just a note: air conditioning is not in the bedroom, only in the living area section. Maybe just pack an extra fan for the bedroom.

Excellent, affordable, family friendly.

This place gets a perfect 5 out of 5 from me. You'll encounter a gravel road of about 3 kilometers to reach it, but a normal vehicle can handle it. It suited our plans perfectly during our stay. Host was exceptionally friendly and always ready to meet our needs. One area for improvement is the WiFi around the pool area, which isn't ideal for full browsing but works fine for quick messaging like WhatsApp. However, cell phone reception is generally poor elsewhere.

Beslis 'n stukkie paradys in die Bosveld.

Die gasheer is baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Dit is ongelooflik mooi daar. Die plekkies is skoon en netjies. Die beste deel was die diere wat skaars 100 meter ver staan en vreet. Dit is so rustig daar, beslis 'n plek om te herlaai. Sal beslis weer die lodge gebruik as ons in die area is.

Definitely a piece of paradise in the Bosveld.

The host is very friendly and helpful. It is incredibly beautiful there. The places are clean and tidy. The best part was the animals standing and eating barely 100 meters away. It's so peaceful there, definitely a place to recharge. Will definitely use the lodge again if we are in the area.

Die plek is werklik 'n lafenis vir jou siel.

Dit het ons twee jaar geneem om daar te gaan kuier vanweë die feit dat ons 'n ander vaste kuierplek gehad het. Besef nou eers wat ons gemis het. 'n Mooier natuuromgewing gaan jy moeilik op ander plekke kry, dis bosveld op sy beste. Daar is ook 'n wye keuse tussen chalets waaruit jy kan kies volgens jou behoefte, elk ten volle toegerus. Dan is daar ook jou gasheer, wat uit sy pad gaan om jou by te staan en die ekstra myl vir jou sal loop. Sien jou weer in Maart 2025!

The place is truly a retreat for your soul.

It took us two years to visit there due to the fact that we had another fixed place to visit. Only now realize what we missed. You will hardly find a more beautiful natural environment in other places, it is woodland at its best. There is also a wide choice of chalets that you can choose from according to your needs, each fully equipped. Then there is also your host, who goes out of his way to assist you and will go the extra mile for you. See you again in March 2025!

We had a great time during our stay. The house was well equipped and the kids loved being able to explore. The house was right by where the animals were fed every day, so we got to see all the different game the farm had. We have been here before and will definitely visit again.

Excellent.

Thanizimbi game farm is amazing. We were received with warm hands by Abel, who is down to earth. His place is quite tranquil day and night. You can see a lot of animals on the farm and it's a good spot for praying in the bush. I would recommend this place to anyone who would like to stay there. We spent 10 nights in this place; wish we could have stayed longer. It's so beautiful. Thanks to Abel and the cleaning team. Very sweet. Wishing them the best in 2024 and beyond. God bless them.

Baie aangenaam en sielsverrykend. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Baie lekker. Die personeel, veral Abel en Tokka, was besonder behulpsaam. Klein dingetjies, bv. baie swak vloei van kouewater in die kombuis, kasdeur wat nie toemaak nie, en geen spieel in die slaapkamer het gehinder. Aandag moet aan blinders gegee word wat besig is om te skeur. Die atmosfeer van rustigheid en die pragtige wild was ongelooflik.

Very pleasant and soul-enriching. Will definitely go again.

Very nice. The staff, especially Abel and Tokka, were particularly helpful. Small things, e.g. very poor flow of cold water in the kitchen, closet door that doesn't close, and no mirror in the bedroom got in the way. Attention should be given to blinders who are tearing. The atmosphere of tranquility and the beautiful wildlife was incredible.

A true Bushveld experience.

It was so nice to watch every afternoon how the herds of Zebras, Blue Wildebeest and large Elk come to the chalets to eat their treats that the lodge puts out for them in the feeding bowls. They are tame enough that we can stare at them from quite close. A true Bushveld experience.

Ons kon net een aand oorbly met net een ander eenheid beset, so baie stil.

Was baie rustig, dankie. Skoon eenheid met alles nodig. Ons het sout en peper vergeet, maar dit is gou vir ons gegee deur die gasheer. Ook ys en hout is gratis! Enigste opmerking is dat daar baie vlieë is, maar onthou dis Afrika! Die grondpad van Rooiberg (ons moes 'n stuk ry aansluiting van Alma af) is rof, maar Abel het my gewaarsku. Ek dink daar is so 4 vulsels los vanoggend!

We could only stay one night with only one other unit occupied, so very quiet.

Was very calm, thank you. Clean unit with everything needed. We forgot salt and pepper, but they were soon given to us by the host. Ice and wood are also free! Only comment is that there are a lot of flies, but remember it's Africa! The dirt road from Rooiberg (we had to drive a bit from the junction from Alma) is rough, but Abel warned me. I think there are about 4 fillings loose this morning!

Teleurgesteld dat ander gaste nie in ag geneem word nie.

Het uitgesien na 'n rustige bosveld naweek. Wat 'n teleurstelling. Klipharde musiek en kuier tot in die vroeë oggendure. Reëls sê geen harde musiek na 10 uur in die aand, maar dit word nie toegepas nie.

Wat 'n voorreg om die diere so naby aan ons chalet te sien eet, en die watergat waar hulle kom drink, selfs die kameelperd het 'n draai kom maak.

Die weer was heerlik en nie te warm nie. Dit was baie maklik om die plaas te kry. Na die golf die oggend op Tabazimbi, is dit darem nie te ver uit die dorp uit nie, so die ligging is ideaal. Swembad was 'n lafenis, kombuis en chalet heel gemaklik, en braaiplek is lekker beskut teen die wind. Julle sien ons definitief binnekort weer. Dankie vir julle gasvryheid.

What a privilege to see the animals eating so close to our chalet, and the waterhole where they come to drink, even the giraffe came for a visit.

The weather was lovely and not too hot. It was very easy to find the farm. After the wave in the morning on Tabazimbi, at least it's not too far out of town, so the location is ideal. Swimming pool was a pleasure, kitchen and chalet very comfortable, and braai area is nicely sheltered from the wind. You will definitely see us again soon. Thank you for your hospitality.

Beveel beslis aan vir mense wat lief is vir wild en veld. Besondere plek met baie gawe gasheer. Dankie Abel vir jou gasvryheid en hulp. Het 3 hondjies saamgeneem en hulle kon oral vry rondbeweeg saam met ons. Dit was baie besonders om diere so naby te kon beleef. Hondekinders het hul verbaas aan die diere en ons het paar keer gelag vir hul optrede. Wat 'n voorreg om daar te kon wees!

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Ons kon lekker gaan stap, draf en fietsry tussen die wild. Abel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Hy het vir ons 'n opgradering gegee toe ek onseker was of die eenheid wat ons bespreek het sou werk vir my skoonma. Ons sal definitief weer soontoe gaan.

Wild op jou voor stoep. Fantastiese diens en goeie skoon akkommodasie. Baie lekker gekuier gestap en gerus op die besonderse plaas diep in die bos. Wild loop sommer by jou voorstoep verby. Abel het moeite gedoen om te verseker ons is gemaklik. Hoog aanbeveel vir 'n bosveld wegbreek.

Baie dankie Abel vir die gasvryheid en die vriendelikheid wat ons weereens ontvang het. Dit was ons tweede keer by julle en ons het dit weereens baie geniet. Ons het lekker gerus. PS. daai beddens slaap wonderlik. Ons kinders het lekker geswem en ons geniet die braaigeriewe. Die WiFi by die onderste huisies tel nie op nie, maar ons kon lewe sonder ons selfone.

Awesome, peaceful game farm in the heart of the bushveld.

Our stay at Thani Zimbi Game Farm truly restored peace to our souls. We walked for over 3 hours on Saturday and were truly blessed by the beautiful, peaceful bushveld and many game sightings. We relaxed by the fire pit next door and enjoyed watching the game and birds come for breakfast and dinner. Accommodation was clean and neat, however, it was not so well equipped. There was no pan to fry eggs in, nor were there batteries in the aircon remote. The outside lights had no globes in them so we had to make a plan for light by the braai. Other than those few issues Abel met us on arrival with a welcoming smile and assisted us to our chalet. All in all, I would rate our weekend experience a 9/10. And we will definitely be going back soon.

Dit was bosveld-lewe, aan die einde van die winter.

Abel is 'n goeie gasheer en het ons baie gehelp met ons bespreking. Die oord is in die berge noord van Thabazimbi. Dit was baie droog en die selfoonnetwerke is swak, maar die oord se WiFi help darem op sekere plekke. Daar is verskillende wildsoorte wat gesien kan word vanaf jou voorstoep en daar is staproetes wat gevolg kan word, alhoewel dit baie warm was.

It was woodland life, at the end of winter.

Abel is a great host and helped us a lot with our booking. The resort is in the mountains north of Thabazimbi. It was very dry and the mobile networks are weak, but at least the resort's WiFi helps in certain places. There is a variety of wildlife that can be seen from your front porch and there are hiking trails that can be followed, although it was very hot.

Pragtige plek met die mooiste omgewing.

Natuurskoon en omgewing is ongelooflik mooi. Ons was vir 'n naweek daar. Kaggelvuur in die nag is 'n ongelooflike ondervinding. Die huise is mooi, modern en goed toegerus. Dis baie skoon en netjies. Ingesluit was DStv en WiFi. Die personeel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal vir seker weer daar oorslaap.

Mooi, rustig, lekker bosveld en mooi diere!

Abel was baie geduldig met ons bespreking wat 'n paar keer moes aanpas. Baie dankie daarvoor! Dit is 'n pragtige plek, en ons het vlakvarke, 'n hele paar bokke (waarvan ek die soort nie nou kan onthou nie), maar die mees spesiale is, ons het die oggend ná ons vertrek 4 kameelperde gesien wat reg by ons voertuig was! Dit was absoluut wonderlik vir ons! Die sonsondergang was pragtig, die huisies het alles wat 'n mens benodig en die rustigheid en stilte is lekker. Ons sal beslis weer na Thanizimbi toe gaan.

Beautiful, peaceful, nice woodland and beautiful animals!

Abel was very patient with our booking which had to be adjusted a few times. Thank you very much for that! It's a beautiful place, and we have warthogs, quite a few goats (of which I can't remember the kind now), but the most special thing is, the morning after we left, we saw 4 giraffes right by our vehicle wash! It was absolutely wonderful for us! The sunset was beautiful, the cottages have everything one needs and the peace and quiet is nice. We will definitely go to Thanizimbi again.

Die bosveld is fantasties en ons was aangenaam verras met die plaas.

Die voer van die diere om 16h00 elke middag was 'n hoogtepunt en dit was wonderlik om hul van naderby te aanskou. Abel is baie gaaf, alhoewel ons hom net gesien het met ons aankoms. Die werkers op die plaas is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Die hout wat ons kon koop was prima en ons het elke aand se braai terdeë geniet. In die aande het ons die leeus hoor brul en dit het net verder bygedra tot die wonderlike bosveldatmosfeer. Hier kan jy rus. vergeet van alles en net wees.

The woodland is fantastic and we were pleasantly surprised with the farm.

The feeding of the animals at 16h00 every afternoon was a highlight and it was wonderful to see them up close. Abel is very nice, although we only saw him when we arrived. The workers on the farm are friendly and helpful. The wood we were able to buy was fine and we thoroughly enjoyed every night's barbecue. In the evenings we heard the lions roaring and this only added to the wonderful woodland atmosphere. Here you can rest. forget about everything and just be.

Excellent, relaxing stay. Abel made us feel very welcome.

Comfortable accommodation in a lovely setting. The feeding of many of the reserve's warthogs at 4pm over the weekend was incredible. We saw more wildlife sitting by the pond than we did in 3 hours of driving around Marakele National Park. With the heatwave it was nice to have an aircon in the room. Abel tries very hard to make your stay great.

Goeie diens en waarde vir geld.

Ons het 'n heerlike naweek gehad. Abel was baie behulpsaam. Ons het heerlike selfry-wildsritte op die plaas gedoen. Daar is vreeslik baie wild wat ons sommer van ons braai-area af kon beskou. Die eenheid was ruim en skoon, met alle kombuisgeriewe wat ons benodig het. Daar is 'n vriendelike span skoonmakers elke oggend. Elke en suite-badkamer was netjies, met behoorlike toiletpapier en bad- en storthanddoeke word ook voorsien. Alhoewel daar nie goeie selfoonsein is nie, is daar by die swembad voldoende WiFi vir kommunikasie.

The unit was spacious and clean, with all the kitchen facilities we needed. There is a friendly team of cleaners every morning. Each en-suite bathroom was tidy, with proper toilet paper and bath and shower towels are also provided. Although there is no good mobile phone signal, there is sufficient Wi-Fi at the pool for communication.

Pragtige plek met mooi natuurskoon. Baie diere.

Die plaas is in 'n mooi en rustige gebied. Diere is volop en baie mooi. Wooneenhede is ruim en gemaklik. Werklik 'n pragtige plek! Onderhoud aan die eenhede behoort effens verbeter te word, want dit is die enigste ongemaklikheid van die besoek. Sommige ligte, die DSTV en die stort het nie gewerk nie, en lakens en beddens in ons eenheid was oud en dun. Abel was egter baie hulpvaardig en het 'n nuwe bed van 'n ander eenheid vir ons gebring, wat 'n baie groot verbetering was. 'n Perfekte wegbreekplek wanneer die ongemaklikhede uitgepluis is.

Beautiful place with beautiful scenery. Many animals.

The farm is in a beautiful and peaceful area. Animals are abundant and very beautiful. Residential units are spacious and comfortable. Truly a beautiful place! Maintenance of the units should be slightly improved as this is the only inconvenience of the visit. Some lights, the DSTV and the shower did not work, and sheets and beds in our unit were old and thin. However, Abel was very helpful and brought us a new bed from another unit, which was a very big improvement. A perfect getaway when the awkwardness is figured out.

Dit is 'n baie mooi plek, die tuine bied baie potentsiaal. Alhoewel ons niks kortgekom het in die chalet, is die meubels effe oud en nodig bietjie aandag. Daar is so te sê geen opvangs nie, ons het wel toegang tot WiFi gekry, opvangs was sleg. Mens breek mos maar weg vir stilte en wegkom van tegnologie af.

Stilte en rus vir jou siel

Van die oomblik wat ons daar gekom het tot die dag wat ons moes ry was een ongelooflike ervaring. Abel het voor ons aankoms duidelike padaanwysings gestuur, wat baie gehelp het. Die eenheid waarin ons tuis gegaan het was silwerskoon en het al ons verwagtinge oortref. Die stilte en rus wat ons daar ervaar het, sal ons altyd bybly. Wat 'n wonderlike ervaring om soveel diere letterlik op jou stoep te sien. Daar is verskeie staproetes en om die plaas te verken het jy vir Bubbles of Brandy, die oulikste 2 Jack Russels om jou te vergesel. Abel gaan ook uit sy pad om dit vir almal daar so gerieflik as moontlik te maak. Dankie vir 'n wonderlike kuier op 'n wonderlike wildsplaas. Sal hierdie plek beslis aanbeveel en beplan reeds om weer terug te gaan.

What an amazing experience to see so many animals literally on your porch. There are several hiking trails and to explore the farm you have Bubbles or Brandy, the cutest 2 Jack Russels to accompany you. Abel also goes out of his way to make it as convenient as possible for everyone there. Thank you for a wonderful visit on a wonderful game farm.

Wildkyk extravaganza.

Dit was ons tweede besoek aan Thanizimbe en ons het dit weereens terdeë geniet. Die verskeidenheid wild wat letterlik by die agterdeur van 'n mens se huisie is, is net fantasties (onder andere kameelperde, vlakvarke, elande, kudu's, waterbokke, nyalas, eekhorinkies, volstruise, sebras, blouwildebeeste en gouewildebeeste, rooibokke, neusbekhoringvoëls). Ons het in Gemsbok tuisgegaan en my ouers in Waterbok. Die vorige keer was ons in die Leeu-eenheid. Al drie eenhede is heerlik toegerus. Gemsbok is egter ons gunsteling omdat dit so bietjie afgesonder is van die bedrywige swembadarea en 'n mens al die diere op jou agterstoep het. Ons kon ook heerlik sterre kyk in ons boma. Die uitsig van die berge en pragtige sonsondergange oorkant die dam maak Thanizimbe enige natuurliefhebber se droom. Abel gaan ook uit sy pad om 'n mens tuis te laat voel en het soveel moeite met ons seuntjie gedoen, wat absoluut versot is op drukpompe en het hom als in die werkswinkelarea gaan wys. Ons waardeer die ekstra myl wat hy stap vir besoekers.

Wildlife viewing extravaganza.

This was our second visit to Thanizimbe and once again we thoroughly enjoyed it. The variety of wildlife that is literally at the back door of one's cottage is just fantastic (including giraffes, warthogs, moose, kudus, waterbucks, nyalas, squirrels, ostriches, zebras, blue wildebeests and golden wildebeests, impalas, hornbills). We lived in Gemsbok and my parents in Waterbok. Last time we were in the Lion unit. All three units are wonderfully equipped. However, Gemsbok is our favorite because it is a bit secluded from the busy pool area and you have all the animals on your back porch. We were also able to enjoy stargazing in our boma. The view of the mountains and beautiful sunsets across the dam make Thanizimbe any nature lover's dream. Abel also goes out of his way to make you feel at home and went to great lengths with our little boy, who is absolutely obsessed with pressure pumps and showed him around the workshop area. We appreciate the extra mile he goes for visitors.

Uitstekende diens met volledige inligting rakende ligging en bespreking

Baie dankie aan Abel en die eienaar van die lodge. Ons het uitstekende diens ontvang, is gereeld op hoogte gehou van die bespreking met addisionele inligting rakende roetes om te volg en beste paaie. Abel het uit sy pad uit gegaan om ons te akkommodeer op ons versoeke en om die verblyf so gerieflik moontlik te maak. Dis was lekker en aangenaam om daar te wees en ons is baie tuis laat voel. Sterkte en hou aan met die goeie werk. Sal beslis weer van die veblyf gebruik maak.

Many thanks to Abel and the owner of the lodge. We received excellent service, were regularly updated on the booking with additional information regarding routes to follow and best roads. Abel went out of his way to accommodate us on our requests and to make the stay as comfortable as possible. It was nice and pleasant to be there and we were made to feel very much at home. Good luck and keep up the good work. Will definitely use the accommodation again.

Lekker tyd in die bos.

Ek en my vrou het 'n heerlike tyd by Thanizimbi gehad. Die geriewe is goed, ons het gestap op die plaas, die wilddiere beskou en lekker gebraai en gekuier. Abel was baie behulpsaam en gasvry tydens ons verblyf. Ek kan Thanizimbi hoogs aanbeveel, dis vir seker baie goeie waarde vir geld.

Hierdie is 'n moet vir diereliefhebbers. Ek het lanklaas soveel diere so naby aan die oord gesien. En die voer van diere is iets om te beleef.

Die eenheid is goed en volledig ingerig, Dankie Abel vir jou gasvryheid en hulp. Die braaigeriewe buite die eenheid is ook goed ingerig waar 'n gesin of vriende kan kuier.

Ontspanne naweek, met vriendelike effektiewe diens.

Abel hou jou op hoogte van jou bespreking, gee uitstekende aanwysings en gaan uit sy pad om jou kuier so maklik en gerieflik te maak. Dan is daar die uitsig oor die vlakte en watergat waar al die diere een of ander tyd kom drink. Onthou egter jou bad- en swemhandoeke. Hout kan gekoop word, maar die eerste sak is gratis, so ook blits en ander klein goedjies en swart potte is ook beskikbaar vir gebruik.

Abel keeps you informed of your booking, gives excellent directions and goes out of his way to make your visit as easy and comfortable as possible. Then there is the view over the plain and water hole where all the animals come to drink at one time or another. However, remember your bathing and swimming habits. Wood can be bought, but the first bag is free, as well as flash and other small things and black pots are also available for use.

Cleanliness could definitely be worked on. Bathroom mats need to be washed after every customer. Didn't look like they had been washed in a very long time. There were a few things here and there that weren't clean. I would expect a pan to be standard in any place, but we managed. Other than that it was great. I would definitely stay there again.

Most disappointing.

We are still waiting to see the manager, who never arrived. A worker took us to our unit, which had not been cleaned or prepared in any way. The furnishings and fittings are well overdue for refurbishment and the unit was dirty. We had to ask for towels, there were very few implements in the kitchen, no dish cloths etc.

Thanizimbi Game Farm 's response

Firstly let me apologize for your bad experience. As you can see this is not the usual response we receive. We really try hard to let our guests feel welcome and comfortable. I am able to meet and great 90% of our guests, even 95%. In the event that I am not able to be at the reception, we do use our staff members to assist guests on arrival. This has never been a problem and our staff members are very experienced.
This reservation was one night, Wednesday booking for two. I was not on the farm that day. I can however 100% guarantee that your chalet was cleaned and prepared for you. I am aware that your microwave was not working, but the staff members quickly exchanged it for you.
Your Chalet does have a new TV with DStv premium, aircon, and brand new bedding. We can upgrade the kitchen appliances, but I can guarantee you there is not a shortage of utensils.
Sorry for the towels. We did supply you with towels when you requested some. We are/were trying to exclude towels from our amenities. We will surely add towels and dishwashing stuff.

Our Lodge is a self-catering establishment, and my presence is not required nor compulsory. I do however try my best to welcome each and every guest, but this is obviously not humanly possible.

Maybe with better communication, we could have avoided this.

Highly recommend this place. It was so peaceful. Lots of lovely early morning and late evening walks, pool was clean and refreshing, our chalet had everything we needed. At night we sat outside and looked at the stars and listened to the wildlife around us. Our bush walks were amazing, you never knew what was around the corner, giraffe, impala, zebra etc. The best part though, was the 24 hour security accompanying us - a Jack Russel called Brandy!

Baie rustig in die bos geleë.

Klein goedjies wat kan maak dat dit uitstekend kan word. Tafels, mure en teëls wat los is moet reggemaak word. Groter stort koppe sal geriefliker wees. Beligting by die boma en op die vuur area moet in gesit word. Baie goeie diens gekry en hulle het ook plan gemaak om vir ons lig te verskaf. Waterblok se stort is geskik vir 'n rolstoel, maar indien die trappe na die boma na 'n ramp kan verander sal dit nog beter wees. Dankie.

Heerlike boswegbreek.

Verblyf is fantasties geleë naby Marakele. Ons het meer wild gesien by Thanizimbi as by Marakele en was heerlik om self deur die plaas te ry. Verblyf is skoon en netjies alhoewel ons nie bewus was van die feit dat die verblyf sonder handdoeke, skottelgoedseep, afdrooglappe en die basiese items wat 'n mens gewoonlik ontvang as deel van selfsorgverblyf nie. Dus was dit moeilik met klein kindertjies sonder die basiese. Die stortkop kan ook gerus opgegradeer word. Daar kom skaars water uit. Daar is ook geen buiteligte by die braai-area nie. Ons sal vir seker weer besoek alhoewel ons dan meer voorbereid sal wees. Het dit baie geniet.

Lovely forest break.

Accommodation is fantastically located near Marakele. We saw more wildlife at Thanizimbi than at Marakele and it was wonderful to drive through the farm ourselves. Accommodation is clean and tidy although we were not aware of the fact that the accommodation was without towels, dish soap, drying cloths and the basic items that one usually receives as part of self-catering accommodation. So it was difficult with small children without the basics. The shower head can also be upgraded. Hardly any water comes out. There are also no outside lights at the braai area. We will definitely visit again although we will be more prepared then. Enjoyed it a lot.

Peace of mind and game experience.

The place is wonderful and the staff is friendly. We had few things that we forgot to buy and to my surprise we had Abel the manager to our rescue. He was so patient with us and he gave us the best service ever. I was so happy I even cleaned up our chalet before we check out. Our kids were so relaxed. Definitely coming back.

Ons was vir tien nagte daar. Die dag met ons aankoms het Abel ons verwelkom wat 'n wonderlike persoon is wat ons met gasvryheid verwelkom het. Die huisies is baie skoon en netjies en die tuine en gras baie netjies. Die swembad baie skoon.

Dankie Abel, dit was 'n belewenis om daar te kuier.

Ons gasheer Abel het ons vriendelik verwelkom, en selfs ook kom groet toe ons moes ry. Sal beslis teruggaan. Die chalet is netjies en skoon, als wat jy nodig het, weg van die stad se lawaai, en die diere is sommer teenaan ons chalet gewees in die aande. Die hoogtepunt vir my klein kinders was toe ons braai, die laaste aand en ek wys hulle om te shhhhs, daai gesiggies was priceless toe hulle die, vlakvarke letterlik 30 m van hulle af sien. Dankie Abel vir jou gasvryheid.

The chalet is neat and clean, everything you need, away from the city's noise, and the animals were right next to our chalet in the evenings. The highlight for my little children was when we barbecued, the last night and I showed them to shhhhs, those little faces were priceless when they saw the warthogs literally 30 m from them. Thank you Abel for your hospitality.

A perfect, short trip, family destination.

We were 22 people with friends, families and kids. We came to spend 2 nights on the 18th of October 2019 on a hot summer's day. The cool weather inside never gave us a feeling of intense heat outside. We stayed in 5 chalets and all the chalets had fans and 3 chalets had air conditioning. The kitchen was full with all the necessary pots and pans and more. Abel is a very helpful host and does not leave you with any option for complaint. Whatever we lacked, was immediately arranged by him from nearby stores. The game farm has plenty of animals moving around your chalets which include giraffe, zebra, kudu, nyala, water-bucks, springbok, warthog and a lot of birds, to name a few. It's surely a place to visit again. Loved it.

Dit was beslis die mees gasvrye en ontspanne verblyf wat ons al ooit by was.

Die verblyf was uitstaande, niks het ontbreek nie. Die gasvryheid by ontvangs, die rustige omgewing, die heerlike kuier om die vuur saans, absoluut alles maak dit 'n fantastiese wegbreek. Abel is een van die beste bestuurders met wie ons al te doen gehad het. Hierdie was beslis nie ons laaste kuier by Thanizimbi Game Farm nie.

One of the best weekends away to be had!

Wow, I didn't know what to expect when I booked Thanizimbi. As a fearless and dedicated researcher, the information I found online about this treasure of a place, did not satisfy me. However, I went with the mindset of, just do it. And boy! Am I glad we did. About 4 hours from Johanneburg (shortcut is a bad gravel road ─ not recommended due to huge rainfall), we took our children off on an adventure. Arriving in Thabazimbi, we realised we had no actual directions to get to the farm (left on the kitchen table). A quick call to Abel ensured a solid set of WhatsApp messages, sent immediately to us. 15 mins from Thabazimbi Central and we arrived. We were welcomed by a couple of impala, a springbuck and a curious giraffe ─ always impressive. A beautiful spot, with a fire pit, a welcoming pool, and the gem of a host, Abel. With game drives, a huge lapa, a fishing dam, wonderful families and a safe spot for our children to roam, we had the very best time. Abel and his son were consummate hosts. Would I recommend Thanizimbi? Absolutely. Would I go back there? I'm already looking for a free weekend. Key points I should mention: No cell phone signal (which was wonderful). The pool isn't covered with a net, but somehow the kids (and there were tiny ones), rode their bikes on the pathways. Bring bikes. Bring hiking boots. Bring fishing rods. Don't bring your own firewood ─ they supply for R40 a bag, and its the best wood!

Wunderschön gelegene Gamefarm mitten in der Natur. Tiere können aus der Nähe gut beobachtet werden. Die Farm hat mehrere gut ausgestattete Unterkünfte, die sehr sauber und gut ausgestattet ist.

Als Ausgangspunkt für den Marakele Nationalpark bestens geeignet. Problemlose Kommunikation mit Abel, der während unseres Aufenthaltes auf der Farm unser freundlicher und herzlicher Gastgeber war. Von Abel kann man viel über das Leben auf dieser schönen Farm und über die zahlreichen Tiere erfahren. Wer ein naturnahes Erlebnis sucht in einer sehr schönen Landschaft und grosszügigen Gastgeber, wird hier ein paar erlebnisreiche Tage geniessen können. Selbstversorger kaufen am besten in Thabazimbi ein, dass ca. Eine halbe Stunde entfernt liegt. Auf der Farm gibt es natürlich Grillmöglichkeiten und in jedem Haus komplett ausgestattete Küchen. Am WiFi und Mobilphone Zugang wird noch gearbeitet und derzeit ein Booster installiert.

Kos vir jou siel.

Wat 'n awesome plaas. Die huis is enorm met alles wat 'n vrou nodig het, selfs 'n koekroller (ek het een saamgebring van my huis af en toe was dit verniet). Die rustigheid, die uitsig vanaf die dammetjie en braai area is fantasties. Natuurlik baie warm, maar net so voor jy smelt duik jy in die swembad. Abel is 'n ware gasheer. Ons kon selfs sy bakkie gebruik het vir die wildritte. Baie dankie vir 'n heerlike, ontspannende naweek. Nou kort die veld en die diere net die reën.

What an awesome post. The house is enormous with everything a woman needs, even a rolling pin (I brought one from my house and sometimes it was free). The tranquility, the view from the pond and braai area are fantastic. Of course very hot, but just before you melt you dive into the pool. Abel is a true host. We could even have used his van for the game drives. Thank you very much for a wonderful, relaxing weekend. Now the field and the animals only need the rain.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you Abel for the speedy responses to all my queries raised during the booking process, the directions to the Farm, etc. I really appreciated it! The property owners were absolutely amazing and made us feel quite at home. Sam and the other employees were all friendly and extremely helpful. One downside for us, was the massive creepy crawlies. I've never physically seen such huge spiders before, but then again it's farm living after all and that can be expected. We’ll definitely be back in the near future (well-armed for the spiders) and to take a game drive through the beautiful farm.

The accommodation was basic but adequate. Needs a bit of TLC. Bedside lamps and lighting needed bulbs. Self catering, but no toaster for breakfast toast. No cleaning services offered. No phone signal in the area, and no Wi-Fi. Hosts were very friendly and helpful.

Amazing.

Die verblyf was ongelooflik. Alles wat 'n mens nodig het was in die kamers. Die ligging is fantasties, die personeel is vriendelik en baie behulpsaam. Ek sal beslis Thanizimibi Game Farm aanbeveel.

Met all our expectations.

Very friendly hosts, can't do enough to meet and exceed your requirements. Thoroughly enjoyed our time at Thanizimbi. Accommodation spacious and lovely. I was on crutches and the hosts could not do enough to make my stay as comfortable as possible. Will recommend to all.

Value for money can not be beaten at any other Game Resort in the area.

A proper rest away from home means a proper rest away from the old cell phone. Be prepared and let everyone know who might be looking for you that you will not be reachable while visiting the resort.

Die chalet was netjies. Die gronde ook. Ons was mal oor die diere wat kom eet het.

Die plek was netjies. Vriendelike mense, lekker braaihout, 10 uit 10.

The chalet was neat. So was the terrain. We loved the animals that grazed there.

Neat place. Friendly people. Nice braai wood. 10 out of 10.

Thanizimbi is 'n perfekte venue vir 'n groot groep mense of familiebyeenkoms. Goed toegeruste kombuis met baie eetgerei. Vriendelike personeel. Pragtige omgewing en natuur.

Die hitte het ons in die aande 'n bietjie ondergekry met die aircon wat nie gewerk het in die hoofhuis nie. Ekstra waaiers sal in die kamers aanbeveel word. Maar die heerlike swembad het ons lekker laat afkoel en almal het hulle gate uit geniet. Pragtige omgewing en natuurlewe. Baie veilig gevoel ten alle tye. Die kombuis was baie goed toegerus gewees met baie eetgerei vir 'n groot groep mense. Dankie, ons het lekker gekuier.

Thanizimbi is a perfect venue for a large group of people or family gathering. Well equipped kitchen with plenty of cutlery. Friendly staff. Beautiful surroundings and nature.

The heat got us down a bit in the evenings with the aircon not working in the main house. Extra fans would be recommended in the rooms. But the lovely swimming pool let us cool off and everyone enjoyed themselves. Beautiful surroundings and wildlife. Felt very safe at all times. The kitchen was very well equipped with plenty of cutlery for a large group of people. Thank you, we had a great time.
