Matric celebration holiday. Beautiful place well appointed with everything you need. The WiFi is not working at the moment, but we had no other problems at Tlou Lodge. We thoroughly enjoyed it.

Matriek viering vakansie. Pragtige plek goed ingerig met alles wat jy nodig het. Die WiFi werk nie tans nie, maar geen ander probleme gehad by Tlou Lodge nie. Dis deeglik geniet.

Really enjoyed staying here. Worth the money. It was definitely more than I expected. It was nice having wildlife visits on a daily basis. The house was in tip-top condition apart from the TV remote not working. The WiFi was also not working. Some of the outdoor lights were not working either, although I've seen numerous complaints about this from previous reviews, yet it's still not fixed. The house is located close to the shop and restaurant. Was a really good weekend, with the weather in our favour and finishing off the stay with a game drive before heading home. Will definitely want to stay at 250 Tlou Lodge again.

It was good but could have been better. This was my second visit to 250 Tlou. My first visit was in March 2025 and again in January 2026. Apart from the kitchen being completely redone, there are no other efforts made to fix small things that have been mentioned numerous times in other reviews. Internet not working. TV remote not working. Outdoor light completely broken. Weeds in the front are overgrown; it's actually an eyesore compared to the adjacent houses. The top floor aircon remote is missing. Speaking of aircons, all those filters were disgustingly clogged; we had to clean them. I can tell that the place is not getting the attention it deserves, as I can compare it to our previous stay. I would still recommend it but read the reviews and manage your expectations. Still having a leaking toilet. Shower heads not working properly. It's a matter of time before someone is going to get seriously injured with the slippery tiles by the pool.

Very convenient and can be recommended. Beautiful house with everything you need. The boma which is a short distance from the house was a winner. Our grandson had a great time riding his bike in the courtyard on the pavement.

Baie gerieflik en kan aanbeveel word. Pragtige huis met alles wat jy nodig het. Die boma wat 'n entjie van die huis af is, was 'n wenner. Ons kleinkind het heerlik met sy fietsie in die binnehof op die plaveisel gery.

Have a nice day. The weather was not cooperative. We had a nice rest, but due to the rain we were unable to use the facilities. We are very satisfied with the unit.

Lekker gerus. Die weer het nie saamgespeel nie. Ons het lekker gerus, maar a.g.v. die reën kon ons nie die geriewe benut nie. Ons is heel tevrede met die eenheid.

Nice stay. We had a great stay. The cottage was comfortable with everything we needed. The 3 bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom, are really comfortable. The swimming pool and boma are a lovely relaxation area. The wooden stairs to the upper room need urgent attention.

Lekker gebly. Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die huisie was gerieflik met alles wat ons nodig gehad het. Die 3 slaapkamers, met elk sy eie volledige badkamer, is regtig gerieflik. Die swembad en boma is 'n heerlike ontspanningsarea. Die houttrappe na die boonste kamer kort dringend aandag.

Relaxing, but attention is needed. DSTV had a problem and was fixed relatively quickly. Wi-Fi never worked; although support asked many questions, they never fixed it for the entire time. Both should work and be tested before new guests arrive. The weeds in the paving need removal. The fire pit also needs attention; there are loose bricks and some can get hurt. The toilet was also leaking. The dial on the fridge is broken off, thus you cannot set the fridge. The rain was also not so good, as there is no place to braai underneath a roof. The breakage fee is totally too high.

Good enough. Good value for money. The unit is clean, but a bit run down. The shower heads for example didn't work, we had to take a bath. The water was brown and muddy, probably from rust or disuse. The thatched roof in the upper room is dusty, so bad for hay fever. The mattresses were good and slept well. Bring your own dishcloths etc., there are none. We extended our stay by a day and the host was more than helpful with that, thank you very much. They take a breakage deposit. Be sure to follow up for the refund. It doesn't happen automatically, so you can easily forget about it. Mabalingwe is a nice holiday or short break.

Goed genoeg. Goeie waarde vir geld. Die eenheid is skoon, maar bietjie vervalle. Die stortkoppe werk bv. nie, ons moes bad. Die water was bruin en modderig, sekerlik van roes of ongebruik. Die grasdak in die boonste kamer is stowwerig, so sleg vir hooikoors. Die matrasse was goed en slaap lekker. Bring eie opwaslappies ens., daar is geen. Ons het ons verblyf met 'n dag verleng en die gasheer was hulpvaardiger daarmee, baie dankie. Hulle neem vir 'n breekdeposito. Wees seker om op te volg vir die terugbetaling. Dit gebeur nie automaties nie, jy kan dus maklik daarvan vergeet. Mabalingwe is 'n lekker vakansie of kort wegbreek.
