AMAZING!!

What a location and a great house to be in! Living in the middle of the bush, and the animals (Zebra, warthog, mongoose, bushbuck, impala...and many more!) visiting us throughout the day and the magnificient view into kruger within a short walking distance from the house itself. A nice refreshing pool and a cosy braai area. Living a dream. This remains my no 1 choice whenever I'm coming back to marloth park!

It really was a very comfortable stay. Fully equipped kitchen, braai facilities even towels for bathroom and pool! Anton was there within seconds when the power went off - he really is a superstar. We will definitely be back and will definitely recommend this establishment (home away from home)

Beautiful, tranquil, well catered for.

Beautiful location and comfortable and well-equipped accommodation. I loved the peace and tranquility, away from the city hustle and bustle. Loved hearing the animal and bird calls and viewing the smaller game at the watering holes and feeding station that I set out. Very close to Crocodile Bridge, so can get in early if a gate booking is made. Bonus to have the use of the sparkling and refreshing private pool, after a warm day in the Park.

Wonderful African bush house !

Wonderful, rustic,African house in the bush ! Very spacious inside and outside with a nice veranda upstairs and seating area downstairs. Spotless clean !!!!! Anton was always around when needed and showed us the area, where we initially got a bit lost. Close to a beautiful river walk looking into Kruger and seeing elephants, hippos , crocs etc. Anton made us a fire every night and cleaned the kitchen and house daily .It was great to have him around and we felt very safe. Animals around the house were always a beautiful surprise and we loved them !!!! Communication with Roy, the owner and Anton was perfect !!!! Highly recommended beautiful place ! Anton is so kind, great and special !

Comfortable and Relaxing

Property was in great condition, we were greeted on our first day by zebras which Anton had provided pallets for them. All the amenities were in good condition the owner contacted us during our stay to check in on us which we appreciated we let him know if anything was not up to standard. The Kruger was not far away and many animals were in the vicinity of Marloth park.

Surrounded by beauty

We loved watching the animals pass whilst we were in the swimming pool. The house is well equipped and it had all we needed to have a relaxing break.

I’ve been in Marloth times 4 times and the location of this house in the park beats all others (and the others were great also)! We were visited by Giraffe, Kudu, Warthog, Mongools, Bushbabies, Impala,… what a place to be!!

Perfect gataway

It’s perfect gate-away surrounded by nature. We could not expect more. The daily service on the unit was quite good. However during busy the periods, the grid in the area gets overload leading to power outage, nevertheless it was a joy and a lot of curious animals. Particularly the mongoose. Not commenting the wildebeest that was our personal car guard.
