Okay.

Misleading information from website. Very poor WiFi only around reception. No satellite TV. No activities available which was advertised. Fortunately for us staff and food was top class.

Lekker Bosveld-wegbreek

Heerlik om net weg te kom van daaglikse roetine en langs die rivier te sit met 'n glas wyn en wag vir heerlike kos! Baie geniet!

Nice Bosveld getaway

Great to just get away from daily routine and sit by the river with a glass of wine and wait for delicious food! Have fun!

Nie soos verwag.

Ek het onmiddellik betaal vir verblyf vir 2 persone met my bespreking. Daar was egter 'n probleem en kon my metgesel nie meer saamkom nie. Personeel het geensins aangebied die deposito van R1800.00 te halveer en my te krediteer omdat daar uiteindelik slegs een persoon oorgebly het nie. Ek verwag nie 'n terugbetaling nie, maar sou 'n aanbod om terugbetaling van helfte van die deposito waardeer word. "Courtesy" ontbreek. Die verblyf by Mogalakwena River Lodge was nie wat ek verwag het vir die bedrag wat betaal is nie. Verblyf in ander provinsies vir hierdie prys is meer luuks en afgerond.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Not as expected.

I booked and paid for 2 people, but then there was the problem that my companion couldn't go with me anymore. The staff didn't offer to halve my R1800 deposit or credit my since only 1 person ended up staying. I don't expected a refund, but would've appreciated the offer to halve the deposit. Courtesy lacking. The accommodation wasn't what I expected for the price charged. Accommodation in other provinces at this price is more luxurious.

Geagte Mnr. Swart

Baie dankie vir u terugvoer en ek is baie jammer om te verneem dat u ervaring by Mogalakwena River Lodge nie bo verwagting was nie.
Op die Travelground/nightbridge besprekingswebwerf word aangedui dat ons kostes per kamer is en nie per persoon nie en dat dit aandete en ontbyt insluit.
Ons sal graag vir u 'n komplimentere 2 nag verblyf wil aanbied.

Vriendelike groete

Puik Lodge, puik diens, puik span mense wat jou rêrig baie tuis laat voel. Anna lei van vooraf en dit wys in hulle staf.

Rêrig puik mense en' n baie mooi area met baie goeie kliëntediens. Sal die Lodge aanbeveel aan almal wat net wil gaan rus en veilig rustig kan verkeer.

Really great people and a very nice area with very good customer service. Would recommend the Lodge to anyone who just wants to rest and be able to travel safely and peacefully.

Vinnige oornag terwyl op vakansie in die Bosveld.

Uitstekende diens van al die personeel. Chalet gemaklik en skoon. Die wildgids Frank is duidelik in sy element en 'n besoek aan beide die Eco en Craft Sentrums is 'n moet. Ontbyt terwyl die ape baljaar en bokke aan die oorkant van die rivier wei is iets om te beleef. Uithaler - ons kom weer en vir langer!

Quick overnight stay while on holiday in the Bushveld.

Excellent service from all the staff. Chalet comfortable and clean. The wildlife guide Frank is clearly in his element and a visit to both the Eco and Craft Centers is a must. Breakfast while the monkeys frolic and goats graze on the other side of the river is something to experience. Outlander - we're coming again and for longer!

Baie mooi en netjies!

Anna was baie vriendelik en haar personeel was net so behulpsaam. Hulle het uit hulle pad gegaan om dit vir ons gemaklik te maak. Die lodge is op 'n mooi plaas geleë. Ons sal beslis weer gaan.

Fantastic break-away from city life!!

With pretty much nothing to do - as you are deep in the Limpopo Bushveld - this is the ideal venue to break-away from technology/city life/traffic etc. The venue is exceptionally clean, neat and the staff are very friendly. Lots of wildlife. Recommended for anybody looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Will definitely go back.
