Incredibly beautiful. Mountains and dam beautiful, permanent tent very comfortable and clean. Had a nice rest. Mountains of the park are beautiful. Very overgrown due to the rain, but saw buffalo, rhinos and elephants. Heard lions. Different types of antelope and many birds too.

Ongelooflik mooi. Berge en dam pragtig, permatent baie gemaklik en skoon. Kon lekker rus. Berge van die park is pragtig. Baie toegegroei agv die reën, maar het buffels, renosters en olifante gesien. Leeus gehoor. Verskillende boksoorte en baie voëls ook.

Amazing, relaxing, worth it! Highly recommend! Get that camping feeling without the hassle of actually camping. Incredible view over the dam, and on our fifth day over 100 elephants came to the dam to bathe and drink water. Predator numbers are low; we didn't see lions, leopards, or cheetahs, but saw a genet cat and civet. Also saw rhino several times, elephants many times (had three elephant traffic jams) and giraffe, zebra, kudu, impala, dassie, klipspringer, steenbokkie and an abundance of birdlife. The sky is gorgeous at night. Leave yourself 1 hour to get from the main gate to Tlopi camp at least.

We will definitely go again. Elephants and birdlife on your doorstep. It is a beautiful place, however the road to get there is difficult and should be driven in a 4x4. We really enjoyed it. However, there is no cellphone reception.

Ons sal beslis weer gaan. Olifante en voëllewe op jou voorstoep. Dit is 'n pragtige plek, die pad daarheen is egter moeilik en moet eerder met 'n 4x4 gery word. Ons het dit regtig baie geniet. Daar is egter geen selfoonopvangs nie.

Nature gas station. The service of the people who work there is one of the best. Everyone was very helpful. Had a really good time.

Natuur vulstasie. Die diens van die mense wat daar werk, is van die beste. Almal was baie behulpsaam. Het regtig 'n goeie tyd gehad.

Peaceful atmosphere, stunning views and fresh air. What a special experience. Between the Waterberge by the dam in a tent house. Peaceful atmosphere, stunning views, fresh air. We saw very few animals because it was terribly bushy, but we didn't go to see animals; we went to rest. And we did. Will definitely go again.

Rustige atmosfeer, stunning views en vars lug. Wat 'n besondere ervaring. Tussen die Waterberge by die dam in 'n tenthuis. Rustige atmosfeer, stunning views, vars lug. Ons het baie min diere gesien want dit was vreeslik ruig, maar ons het nie gegaan om diere te kyk nie; ons het gegaan om te rus. En ons het. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Disappointing. It is with great sadness that I write this review. I haven't been to Marakele in a few years, we used to visit frequently. The roads are not maintained at all. Lucky we were there in a 4x4, there used to be game all over, but now there is barely any. Not a trace of animals. One here and there, the scenery remains remarkable but it's sad to see how far this has gone backward. There is so much potential there. The mountains and landscapes are endless, absolutely gorgeous, makes you wonder if there's food and space, where are all the animals?

Beautiful setting. Very private and quiet. Ideal place to charge batteries and relax. I can recommend with an easy heart. The view of the mountain is incredible. Worth visiting for a weekend.

Pragtige omgewing. Baie privaat en rustig. Ideale plek om batterye te laai en lekker te ontspan. Ek kan met 'n geruste hart aanbeveel. Die uitsig van die berg is ongelooflik. Moeite werd om te besoek vir 'n naweek.
