It was a pleasant holiday. We will go again. Everything was pleasant, except the music in the afternoons at the games/shop/sports area. It was disturbing and we could hear it all the way. Mabalingwe need to update their map. The roads on the game drive map are out of date and do not match Google Maps/satellite. There are too many warthogs; they need to cull them.

Dit was 'n aangename vakansie. Ons sal weer gaan. Alles was aangenaam, behalwe die musiek in die middae by die speletjies/winkel/sport area. Dit was steurend en ons kon dit tot by hoor. Mabalingwe sal hulle kaart moet opdateer. Die paaie op die wildritkaart is nie op datum nie en stem ook nie met Google Maps/satelliet ooreen nie. Daar is te veel vlakvarke; hulle sal dit moet uitdun.

Top-notch bushveld accommodation! Mabalingwe remains a favorite destination for us. Lovely bushveld accommodation with everything you need.

Bosveld-verblyf uit boonste rakke! Mabalingwe bly vir ons 'n gunsteling bestemming. Heerlike bosveldverblyf met alles wat jy nodig het.

Could you possibly look at the mattress please? Delicious! Really very cute.

It was a nice, quiet week. Everything is nice, but the dirt roads need to be scraped.

Lekker rustige week gewees. Alles lekker, maar die grondpaaie moet geskraap word.

The lodge is a good setup, the unit where we were is in urgent need of maintenance. The specific unit needs an upgrade and general maintenance. The wooden doors no longer open or close easily. The lights leading to the boma do not work. Some of the light switch units are missing. The toilet handle is stuck.

Die lodge is 'n goeie opset, die eenheid waar ons was kort dringend instandhouding. Die spesifieke eenheid kort 'n opgradering en algemene instandhouding. Die houtdeure maak nie meer maklik oop of toe nie. Die ligte wat na die boma lei, werk nie. Van die ligskakelaars se eenhede is weg. Die toilet se handel hak vas.

Nothing further to say. Unfortunately not. Needs a deep clean, gardens very untidy, no WiFi.

Niks verder te sê nie. Ongelukkig nie. Kort 'n diepskoonmaak, tuine baie slordig, geen WiFi.

We will be back. Perfection throughout. The accommodation was perfect, although the rear door to the patio was stiff to operate due to the rain swelling the door.

Would go back again. The stay was good and embedded in nature.
