Pragtige skoon en netjiese oorslaap akkommodasie.

Ons is vriendelik ontvang en gewys waar is alles. Ons kon ook ons boswa op krag koppel. Baie skoon en netjiese oorslaap log cabins. Die gemeenskaplike kombuis is goed toegerus. Dame was baie gasvry en hulpvaardig. Ons sal vir seker weer daar oorslaap.

Thank you, Rialda. We at Crocodile Nest are glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and we look forward to seeing you again.

A very beautiful place, friendly people.

We were greeted very friendly and the place indicated clearly on the N4. The room is neat and clean with all the necessary amenities for comfort, including DStv, en-suite bathroom/toilet, fridge, kettle, towels, soap etc. The beds are comfortable and the location is private and quiet. We will definitely stay there again.

Baie mooi plek, vriendelike mense.

Ons is heel vriendelik ontvang en die plek is gerieflik op die N4, baie duidelik aangedui. Die kamer is netjies en skoon, met alle geriewe vir ons gemak, insluitend DStv, en suit-badkamer/-toilet, yskas en ketel, handdoeke, seep ens. Die beddens is gemaklik en die ligging is privaat en stil. Ons wil beslis weer daar gaan bly.

'n Aangename verrassing. Die gasvryheid het alle verwagtinge oortref.

Die houthuisies was eenvoudig, maar met geen tekortkominge nie. Die bestuur se gasvryheid en persoonlike kontak was besonder. 'n Heerlike ontbyt het die verblyf afgerond.

Nice, tranquil area.

Had a nice stay, except for the communal kitchen. Many guests left it dirty after the previous evening.

Lekker rustige omgewing.

Baie lekker gebly, behalwe vir die gemeenskaplike kombuis. Mede tuisgangers het dit net so vuil gelos na hul die vorige aand gekuier het.

We hope your weekend was a success in terms of sporting achievement. Glad to hear that you liked your cabin, but really distressed to know that you were inconvenienced by the previous night's visit leaving the communal kitchen/living area in a mess. Seriously not good, I agree.

Obviously, our early morning guests would like to enjoy their tea/coffee. Sleeper cabin space is minimal, but we will see what can be done within these confines.

We really do hope to see you back here again in the future.

Mooi, gerieflik, vriendelik, beskermend.

Ons het dit vreeslik geniet, kon net nie swem nie, weer was nie goed nie, vriendelike eienaars en baie behulpsaam, plekkie nie 5-ster nie maar gerieflik en veilig, sal enige tyd weer daar bly.

Beryl's Response

We are glad that you enjoyed your break in the area, and with the family. We are not 5-star, we have no stars but aim to provide three-star level services in terms of what we offer in our units and in general.
So sorry that we were not able to squeeze naartjies for you the picking of sufficient fruit and the squeezing of it all in order to produce a couple of litres juice is very time-consuming, particularly when low on staff. I do, however, hope you got to enjoy it on the property with your breakfast and in your unit.
Enjoy the rest ...

'n Netjies en skoon maar baie klein rondawel.

Ons het net een aand oornag en in 'n rondawel gebly. Dit was baie netjies en skoon en met al die noodsaaklike toegerus en geskik vir oornag, maar waarskynlik 'n bietjie beknop vir 'n langer besoek. Beverly Fraser het uit haar pad gegaan om ons welkom te laat voel en selfs aangebied dat ons aandete saam geniet. Toe ons dit van die hand wys het sy gereël dat ons wel by die naburige Kwanyoni Lodge kan eet voor die kombuis sluit. Ons sal beslis weer hier oorbly.

Beryl's Response

We were very glad to be able to help you and agree that our little Room 1 is for short stays only. In time, I hope we will be able to do some work with it, but being a really vintage building, circa 1905, and built in the original manner of the old rondavel, it needs some planning on how to go about it.

With our kind regards,
Mark and Beryl

It was good.

Our accommodation was very nice. Room was clean and comfortable. Shower was difficult. There were problems with the water and we had to shower in the main house next door. It was very uncomfortable.

Dit was goed.

Ons verblyf was baie lekker. Kamer was skoon en gemaklik. Stort was moeilik. Daar was probleme met die water en moes ons in die hoofhuis of in die kamer langsaan gaan stort. Dit was baie ongemaklik.

A very good venue.

I enjoyed my stay very much. A very nice place indeed. I would have given them 5 star for customer service had it not been for the rudeness of the gentleman who opened the gate for us on our arrival first day. All the ladies I met there were very friendly and made our stay very pleasant. To the ladies: Your effort to make our stay so enjoyable is much appreciated. I will in all probabilities stay there when I visit Nelspruit again.

Beryl's Response

Dear Ramaano
Please accept my apologies for the gentleman's rudeness. He has been made aware that this is not acceptable behaviour under any circumstances and was very apologetic.
We look forward to your next visit.

Veilige 'En Route' Akkommodasie.

Ons is vriendelik ontvang deur die bekwame Sozinha. Rustige atmosfeer al is die hoofweg digby. Rondawel was ten volle ingerig en silwerskoon. Baie dankie aan Beryl en Mark Fraser.

Beryl's Response

Dear Mrs. Platt,

Thank you for staying with us. It was wonderful meeting you and your family. The road was extended when they were building the Mbombela stadium, that is why it is now close to the premises. I hope you had a great time at the National Kruger Park.

We hope to see you again in the near future.

May God bless you.

Die verblyf was nie wat ek in gedagte gehad nie. Ek wil nie 'n kombuis met iemand anders deel nie.

Alles is baie netjies en skoon. Die stortgeriewe in die hout kabins is net nie baie gerieflik nie, is te hoog. Maar verder geen ander klagtes nie. Ons was baie vriendelik ontvang.

Beryl's Response

Dear Ms Wiehahn,

Thank you for your honesty. I am so sorry that you did not know that you have to share the communal kitchen with other guest staying at the sleeper cabins. Our handyman will check on the position of the overhead shower and try to lower it down.

It was nice meeting you and your nephew.

I do hope you will come and stay with us again and see the changes as we are trying to upgrade now and then.

May God bless you.

Not good for people who don't like pets.

Die huisvesting en die eenheid was voldoende vir ons behoeftes.

Dit is in 'n baie mooi tuin, maar vir my te na aan die N4-snelweg. Die eenheid waar ons gebly het was reg onder die eienaars wat op die boonste verdieping bly.

Beryl's Response

Nico,

Thank you for staying with us. I am so sorry you were not totally happy with your stay at Crocodile Nest B&B and that you felt the security was not sufficient. The establishment has two security gates, good electric fences and dogs as well as a Security backup service. Any suggestions on how you think we could improve these security features are welcome. I am afraid there is nothing I can do about where we are situated though. Hope the swimming gala went as well as the rest of your weekend with family and friends.
