Greatly rested, was always in contact with the caring owner.
The accommodation was well furnished and spacious. The highlight was the visit of the night monkeys during dusk.

Cozy family visiting the Kruger.
The house is very spacious and we really enjoyed the large porch. The pool and air conditioners made the heat and humidity very bearable. The kitchen is well equipped with a large fridge. We were very lucky not to experience any load shedding during our visit as it was lifted over Christmas. Provision has been made to prepare food outside on the stoep with gas. It had been a wonderful treat on Christmas Day to spend time together as a family outside on the stoep and make food. Would recommend anytime.

We've stayed here twice and it's our go-to home in Marloth Park. The host is helpful and accommodating, the place is always neat and tidy, and it's a great home for making wonderful memories and relaxing.

Nice, big, spacious place. Enjoy every moment.
We as a group (big and small) really enjoyed the wildlife around the house. Thanks to Busie who came to clean up every day, so we could focus on rest and family time.

Tortoise Shell is fantastic! The combination of rustic and modern with all the essentials (and a few luxuries) is perfect.
The house inside exceeded our expectations. There are a few small things that need attention (the living room couches, for example, need to be replaced, but we spent so little time inside, it didn't bother us too much). The kitchen has a lovely large fridge which could keep all our food and drinks ice cold. There is no power during load shedding but there is 1 light in each room and the stove and geysers are gas so we could work around it. The children spent hours in the pool and we really enjoyed the large veranda. The rooms are well laid out with good quality mattresses and bedding, the air conditioning works fantastically and the showers have lovely hot water with good water pressure. The house is located about 4 km from the shopping center which ensures that it is not terribly busy (as it is on the main street I was a bit nervous about this). The owner is helpful and responds quickly if there are any problems/queries. We will definitely stay in Tortoise Shell again!

Second time at The Tortoise Shell and we really enjoyed the break. Had a great time on the big stoep and sat around the boma every evening. The house has everything you need and more. Definitely our favorite cottage in Marlothpark.

Thank you very much Tortoise Shell, the guest house is a big hit. The layout of the house is good and perfect for large group of people. Everything is in working order which is a big plus. Place was nice and clean and Buzzi was very friendly upon our arrival there. The interaction you have with the wildlife that comes to visit the house was wonderful. I will definitely visit there again. Would recommend the guest house to everyone. Ten out of ten.

As old Marloth goers, this stay was the best ever! Apart from the price, the house is incredibly beautiful and well-rounded and well located. Close to centers and Malelane or Crocodile Bridge Gate. Everything clean and tidy. From barbecue under roof, in lapa or pizza in pizza oven, just convenient! Everything you might need is there. Glasses, pots pans, cutlery, everything is there. Will definitely stay here again. Bongi received us kindly and the house was left beautifully clean for our use every day! Thanks again Andrew!

The house offers any discerning vacationer more than you expect. Excellent layout. Comfortable and everything you need. Pizza oven was a winner. Splash pool and boma ensure long hours of fun after an extremely hot day in Kruger Park. Spacious living room and open plan kitchen with a large stove was very comfortable. Beds of top quality and linen neat and clean. Any time again!
