“All in all very disappointing although conveniently situated.”
+The location was great. a short drive to Crocodile Gate in the Kruger . Shops nearby. Wonderful surrounds, the game that visit is a huge plus and sitting outside when braaiing is everso peaceful.
−The kitchen is full of incredible appliances but not what we would use on holiday. There was no microwave, no dish to put meat in once cooked on the braai! We only had one dishcloth for a week. There obviously was no check done on the house before we arrived as on arrival there was no hot water and we couldn't use the gas hob. There were no staff on site so the braai ashes were never removed and this was a first for us - we are both pensioners and elderly and to have to see to this after an exciting day in the park was unacceptable and disappointing as we have never experienced this before in any of the houses we've stayed in, in Marloth Park and elsewhere. There was also nothing to light the fire with - We've always had a fire lighter or even a box of matches in previous rentals. The patio was full of leaves and fire ash, from the third day, as there must have been a large bush fire elsewhere so we had to clean it ourselves whilst on holiday! The light on the patio, above the table and chairs did not work from day one and we would have loved to sit there watching the animals, eating and playing cards. On asking the host if he could please organise for someone to put in a new bulb

+The host has paid attention to every imaginable detail to make the stay comfortable. The bathrooms are spacious, bedrooms have ample storage, the kitchen is well stocked, and the location is ideal. Rooms are comfortable. Great for families with children or a group of friends. If you have older folks, steps can be a bit steep but manageable. We put animal feed out around the house and sat on the balcony and watched the game surrounding the house. The location is ideal for access to both Crocodile Bridge Gate and Malelane Gate, but if you want to just sit by the Kruger border by one of the viewing areas, it's a short 5 minute drive to the road that runs parallel to Kruger.
−Nothing I can think of. I wish our stay was longer.

“Great location to stay as a family. Good facilities to Braai, lounge around or relax in the pool.”
+Location of the house is ideal. Lots of animals came around, Good layout of the venue for a family.
−Stairs are really deep or high in most areas of the house. Challenging if you have any older people.
