Rustige, ontspannende wegbreeknaweek.

Baie netjiese en gesellige vakansiehuis - privaat en rustig. Die kamers met en suite badkamers, lugversorging in die kamers en swembad is 'n bonus in die hitte. Hierdie was 'n ideale wegbreek met minimum selfoonsein - die WiFi was net gebruik om te ontspan. Die teerpad na Marloth Park is in 'n goeie toestand. Ons sal weer kom kuier.

Peaceful, relaxing weekend getaway.

Very neat and cozy holiday home - private and peaceful. The rooms with en suite bathrooms, air conditioning in the rooms and swimming pool are a bonus in the heat. This was an ideal getaway with minimal cell phone signal - the WiFi was only used to relax. The tarmac to Marloth Park is in good condition. We will visit again.

We enjoyed our stay, recommend screens in front of windows, pool furniture lounge.

I would just recommend screens installed in front of all windows to enable one to open a window for fresh air while at the unit without bugs coming inside. I do understand that windows need to be shut when leaving, but while at the unit, I would have enjoyed opening some windows for fresh air. We also missed having loungers at the pool; recommend investing in pool furniture. Thank you, we had a lovely time.

My stay was okay, just a few problems here and there. The owner or caretaker at Optibos has not.

There were a few challenges, for example, a complicated gas stove, no hot water for the shower, constant electricity problems, and the owner or caretaker doesn't have good customer service and wasn't eager to help us with the challenges we faced.

Optibos 's response

Because all of our guests' experiences are important to us, I feel compelled to respond to this review.
After numerous phone calls and messages throughout the weekend, as well as some unpleasant and threatening messages after the guests checked out, I think it is only fair for me to share my side of the story.

All guests receive an information pack before they arrive at Optibos. I also offer telephonic support.
From the onset, the guest struggled to manage the gas appliances. It was explained over the phone that to ignite the gas stove, you have to strike a match or lighter and place it near the burner. You press the corresponding control knob and turn it to the high position until you see the flame. Then you can reduce the flame size by turning the knob to a lower position. The Gas stove was in working order both before the guest arrived, and after their departure.

The guest was informed to only open the hot tap, and not the cold tap, in the shower. This activates the gas geyser and warms the water. According to our cleaning services, the water in the showers and kitchen was warm after the guests checked out.

Our house utilizes solar power. As stipulated in the information sheets sent via email to the guest, the air conditioners and the pool pump use prepaid electricity. Everything else, including the fans, televisions, kettle, and lights, utilise solar power. At Optibos, we always ensure there are sufficient units available - there were 593.42kWh available before the guest's arrival. So any "constant electricity problems" were likely because the air conditioners did not work due to load shedding, which is beyond our control.

The guest called on Saturday evening complaining about the stove and hot water. I messaged him explaining that I was at a function and asked him to contact me on WhatsApp. He then texted me saying "No it's sorted thanks" So I assumed everything was fine.

Upon checkout, I found that a double bed duvet cover and a double bed grey fitted sheet had stains beyond repair. Refuse bags were left inside and outside the house, even though the information sheets state that refuse bags attract pests and are unhygienic. Guests are responsible for taking their trash to the collection point. I had to hire extra cleaning services to address these issues. A part of the refundable deposit was used to cover the losses and damages.

I regret that their stay was not as pleasant as our other guests' experiences. Optibos is a magical place in the bush and we love sharing this with our guests - we value their experience and our relationships with them.

Lovely place to relax and enjoy the bush and still have all that you need to be comfortable.

Close to the river so we saw lots of animals. Good air conditioning and a lovely pool were perfect for the hot weather. Word of advice to guests: Don't forget bug spray. We forgot we were in the bush.

Absoluut fantasties.

Optibos voldoen aan alle standaarde. Goeie waarde vir geld. Die eienaar het regtig baie moeite gedoen met nuwe verbeterings in die plek. Alles wat jy nodig het is tot jou beskikking en alle toerusting in die eenheid is van hoogstaande gehalte. Ek sal definitief die plek weer besoek. Die rustigheid en diere maak dit absoluut die moeite werd.

Dit was die perfekte boswegbreek in Marlothpark!

Naby genoeg aan twee van die suidelike ingangshekke na die Krugerwildtuin vir gemaklike dagbesoeke. Optibos het sy eie wildlewe wat by die watergat kom drink en jy hoef nie eens die stoep te verlaat vir daardie boservaring nie. Die huis is mooi opgeknap en een van die groot voordele is die ruim slaapkamers met eie badkamers, klerekas, TV en lessenaar. Die boonste kamer is baie gaaf ingerig en modern en het ook sy eie dek. Dis ideaal vir gesinne of vriende wat saam wil kuier maar steeds hul privaatheid behou. Die beddegoed en matrasse is eersteklas. Die kombuis en braai area het alles wat jy nodig het met genoeg sitplek en tafelspasie vir opdis en aansit vir ete. Parkeerplek, WiFi, swembad, ruim stoep, drinkwaterkraan met filterstelsel, sekuriteit en sonpanele dra by tot 'n besonders gerieflike verblyfervaring. Goeie kommunikasie het ons deurgaans gelei in die proses. Hierdie is 'n juweel wat ek graag aanbeveel. Dinge wat ek kon sien is in die proses om opgeknap te word: boonste slaapkamer en dek, sommige van die buitemeubels. Dinge waarop besoekers moet let: Bring eie handdoeke en dekodeerder. Uit en uit 'n wonderlike verblyfservaring teen 'n regverdige tarief.

It was the perfect forest break in Marlothpark!

Close enough to two of the southern entrance gates to the Kruger National Park for comfortable day visits. Optibos has its own wildlife that comes to drink at the waterhole and you don't even have to leave the verandah for that bush experience. The house has been nicely renovated and one of the big advantages is the spacious bedrooms with their own bathrooms, wardrobe, TV and desk. The upstairs room is very nicely furnished and modern and also has its own deck. It's ideal for families or friends who want to visit together but still maintain their privacy. The bedding and mattresses are first class. The kitchen and braai area has everything you need with enough seating and table space for dishing up and sitting down for dinner. Parking space, WiFi, swimming pool, spacious veranda, drinking water tap with filter system, security and solar panels contribute to a particularly comfortable stay experience. Good communication guided us throughout the process. This is a gem that I am happy to recommend. Things I could see are in the process of being renovated: upstairs bedroom and deck, some of the outdoor furniture. Things visitors should note: Bring your own towels and decoder. All in all a great stay experience at a fair rate.

Gerieflike klein plekkie.

Ons kuier by Optibos was baie aangenaam met die off-the-grid, net paar punte om in gedagte te hou. Plekkie lyk baie groter op foto's as realiteit. Plek is nie geskik vir 6 volwassenes nie, die area en meubels laat dit nie toe. Die loft bo het nie direkte toegang tot 'n badkamer nie, moet kamer 1 of 2 se en suite-badkamer gebruik. Die trappe na die loft moet met versigtigheid hanteer word. Die fancy kopstukke is nie gemonteer in die muur nie en val op jou en alles op die bedkassies val met elke draai af. Die buitestoele is gebreek en geskeur en algemene instandhouding is nodig. Groter potte en panne is ook nodig.

Cozy little place.

Our visit at Optibos was very pleasant with the off-the-grid, just a few points to keep in mind. Place looks much bigger in photos than reality. Place is not suitable for 6 adults, the area and furniture do not allow it. The loft above does not have direct access to a bathroom, must use room 1 or 2's en-suite bathroom. The stairs to the loft should be handled with care. The fancy headboards are not mounted in the wall and fall on you and everything on the bedside tables falls off with every turn. The outdoor chairs are broken and torn and in need of general maintenance. Larger pots and pans are also needed.

Hi Anel, Optibos word nou Mei - Junie opgradeer. Die 'loft'area asook die trap word oorgedoen en 'n badkamer word bygevoeg. Ons het die huis net so oorgeneem by die vorige eienaar verlede jaar. Ons eerste prioriteit was om die huis van die "grid" af te kry. En ons sal defnitief aandag gee aan die punte wat jy genoem het. Groetnis. Optibos

Cosy plekkie, ideal geleë, goeie waarde vir geld, naby winkels. Beslis die plek in Marlothark om by weg te breek. Sal hoog aanbeveel en sal beslis teruggaan.

Wat 'n aangename, cozy plekkie! Goeie waarde vir geld, en ons het vlakvarke, sebras, muishonde, rooibokke, koedoes asook kameelperd gehad wat vir ons kom kuier het. Ook geen bobbejane wat ons gepla het nie. Die plekkie is naby winkels en restaurante wat dit ideaal maak. Sal beslis hoog aanbeveel selfs met kinders. Ons sal beslis weer teruggaan soontoe.

Peaceful.

The place needs a microwave.

Dear Simone.
The microwave carousel plate broke on the day of departure with the previous guests a day before you arrived. We did replace it with a new microwave.
Kind regards

Onvergeetlike wegbreek!

Ons 'n absolute wonderlike tyd gehad, die diere was een soort op 'n ander, heeldag by die huis, kudus, vlakvarke, kameelperde, bosbokke, nagapies, duikers, springbokke,a lles was daar om te eet en te groet. Die huis het alles in wat mens benodig, tekort aan niks, home away from home, die eienaar was heeltyd beskikbaar op foon en spoedig kontak gemaak, ons was baie gemaklik, en sal beslis weer gaan!

Unforgettable getaway!

We had an absolutely wonderful time, the animals were one kind on another, all day at the house, kudus, warthogs, giraffes, bushbucks, night monkeys, divers, springboks, all were there to eat and greet. The house has everything you need, lack of nothing, home away from home, the owner was always available on the phone and quickly made contact, we were very comfortable, and will definitely go again!

Baie lekker en mooi.

Ons het wel gesukkel met die krag wat af was vanaf Saterdagmiddag. Die invertor en batterye wou nie laai nie.

Very nice and beautiful.

We did struggle with the power being out from Saturday afternoon. The inverter and batteries would not charge.

Always calm.

We had power problems the first night. And the owners were unhelpful.

Skoon en netjies, het die kuier baie geniet.

Ons het die kuier baie geniet en sal vir seker weer terug gaan. Ons het net so bietjie gesukkel met die gas stoof maar dit toe reggekry. Daar is ’n tekort aan opskep bakke en geen vleis braai bakke nie. Altesaam ’n heerlike kuier gehad.

Clean and tidy, really enjoyed the visit.

We really enjoyed the visit and will definitely go back again. We had a bit of a struggle with the gas stove but got it right. There is a shortage of scooping bowls and no meat grilling bowls. All in all had a lovely visit.

The house was not Covid 19 clean.

Swimming was out of order, upstairs patio was padlocked with no key. Was no water from first morning to the end of our stay, had to use water boiled from pool to flush toilets and wash. Outside bench full of spiderwebs. Plug in bedroom rusted, would not close so would not hold water. Gas oven does not work. And to top it all the cleaner was there at 6:50 am on our last day. We were still drinking coffee and in our pjs, our exit time was supposed to be 9 am. Very disappointed and think more supervision is necessary!

Skoon huis in die natuur.

Plek was skoon en netjies en het alles gehad wat ons benodig. Om buite te braai in die natuur en die natuurgeluide te hoor was baie spesiaal. Kon die oggend vroeg koffie drink op die stoep terwyl ons geluister het na die natuurgeluide en besoek van die vlakvarke. Kan verblyf beslis aanbeveel.

Clean house in nature.

Place was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. To barbecue outside in nature and hear the sounds of nature was very special. Was able to drink coffee early in the morning on the stoep while we listened to the sounds of nature and visits from the warthogs. Can definitely recommend accommodation.

Rustig

Warm water in stort is moeilik om reg te stel. Of te warm of te koud.

Restful

Hot water in shower is difficult to fix. Either too hot or too cold.

Beautiful private setting.

Lovely location. Just a pity that the cleaner wanted to clean the house at 7:15 am already.

Beslis die moeite werd!

Was verbaas oor als wat wat daar is. Lugversorging in die kamers en leefarea was 'n pluspunt. Plekkie het my verwagtinge oortref. Skoonmaak- en tuindienste het kom skoonmaak gedurende die week. Sal dit vir enige iemand aanbeveel.

Definitely worth it!

Was amazed at all that is there. Air conditioning in the rooms and living area was a plus. Plekkie exceeded my expectations. Cleaning and gardening services came to clean during the week. Would recommend to anyone.
