Relaxing and comfortable. We stayed at this beautiful home while visiting South Africa from Australia and booked the property for a group of 11 guests. The host was incredibly accommodating and kindly approved a last-minute request to add a 12th guest, which we greatly appreciated. Communication throughout was excellent. Clear, prompt, and very well organised from start to finish. The house itself is lovely, immaculately clean, and exceptionally well equipped. It truly has everything you could need, including extra cookware that made catering for a large family braai effortless. The kitchen was a standout, with thoughtful appliances you don’t even realise you need until you have them, such as a toasting grill and an air fryer. The children loved the swimming pool, and one of the most special parts of our stay was the frequent visits from local wildlife, including nyalas, warthogs, and a variety of beautiful birds. Each bedroom has its own bathroom and air conditioning, which made the stay extremely comfortable for a large group. The inclusion of daily cleaning services was another wonderful touch and added to the overall ease and enjoyment of our stay. This accommodation genuinely cannot be faulted. We had a wonderful time, felt completely at home, and made some very special family memories here. We would highly recommend this property and would happily stay again.

Ideal for a large group. Spacious living areas with large sliding doors that allow for outdoor entertaining. Lovely swimming pool for hot days. Convenient indoor and outdoor braai facilities. Each room has an en-suite bathroom.

Ideaal vir 'n groot groep. Ruim leefareas met groot skuifdeure wat lekker kuier na buite moontlik maak. Heerlike swembad vir warm dae. Gerieflike binne- en buite-braai geriewe. Elke kamer het 'n en-suite badkamer.

Relaxing, wonderful weekend spent with loved ones. We celebrated my dad's 77th birthday. We were a large group. The house has more than enough space. Well planned. Beautifully decorated. We enjoyed the game wandering around the house.

Wonderfully rested and entertained in a luxurious home - what a privilege. Very good communication from Kobus, as well as helpful afterwards (we forgot items there) - the house is comfortable, large and neat. Good quality linen, towels etc. The house is located close to the entrance. Cleaning service was excellent! Outside area - large boma and braai, with a swimming pool. Warthogs, impalas and Njalas visited the waterhole every day. The photos show the house exactly as it is. We were a group of 10 people and enjoyed every moment. Game drives were booked through the resort and very affordable. Would definitely recommend Nageng.

Heerlik gerus en gekuier in 'n luukse huis - wat 'n voorreg. Baie goeie kommunikasie van Kobus, asook behulpsaam na die tyd (ons het items daar vergeet) - die huis is gerieflik, groot en netjies. Goeie kwaliteit linne, handdoeke ens. Die huis is geleë naby aan die ingang. Skoonmaakdiens was uitstekend! Buite area - groot boma en braai, met 'n swembad. Vlakvarke, rooibokke en Njalas het elke dag 'n draai gemaak by die watergat. Die foto's vertoon die huis presies soos dit is. Ons was 'n groep van 10 mense en het elke oomblik geniet. Wildritte is bespreek deur die oord en baie bekostigbaar. Sal Nageng vir seker aanbeveel.

Wonderful stay, easily accessible from the gate and very well appointed. This was an absolutely wonderful stay. My wife and I travelled with our family including my parents, children and brother with his family. Arrangements before arrival were very well communicated and coordinated. The house is very well appointed and my "stompie-tjom" which I always take along, wasn't even necessary. Absolute value for money.

Lovely, peaceful stay with enough space for everyone! It was a lovely stay in a spacious house that is well located. My grandchildren really enjoyed the swimming pool! Several animals came to visit and it was very peaceful and quiet!

Heerlike, rustige kuier met genoeg spasie vir almal! Dit was 'n heerlike kuier in 'n ruim huis wat goed geleë is. My kleinkinders het die swembad baie geniet! Verskeie diere het kom kuier en dit was baie rustig en stil!

Fantastic. I had a fantastic stay at this accommodation! The view over the pool from your bedroom was absolutely stunning, creating a relaxing atmosphere throughout my stay. The property was spotless and well maintained, making it clear that cleanliness is a top priority here. Additionally, the level of privacy provided was excellent, allowing my family to fully unwind and relax without any disturbances. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for a peaceful and luxurious stay!
