"The staff, from Reseption right down to the cleaners, are very friendly and kind. The place where we stayed was cozy and reminded me of my childhood days. All the basic kitchenware items are in place. all clean by the pools and entertainment area. We loved to watch the animals, like the reebucks, walk through the lodge.If you are looking for a relaxed, quiet, and simple non-luxury getaway, this is the place for you. The prices are perfect for what you get. There are no towels in the bathroom. So please bring yours along. We had a perfect stay. Thank you so much. You will see us again soon."
"Started the stay with a totally unfriendly and unhelpful receptionist on check in. The unit itself is in a dire state, very difficult to reach with a normal car. On our entrance the unit's floor was full of sand. The couches are filthy dirty, luke warm water in the bathroom, the bath and kitchen sink silicone disgustingly dirty, cutlery tray still had hard old food of a previous occupant and a very old and uncomfortable bed. Basically the unit is totally outdated, minimal maintenance being done and basic to none cleaning done in there. Then not even to talk of all the fine print stuff.... key deposit... no servicing of the unit, no towels, no dishwashing liquid or cloths, no welcoming tea, coffee or any condiments. This place should be sold as backpacker. Not worth all the money we spent on it. I would be ashamed to sell units like this. If I could do zero ratings I would."
"Thanks Marula Oase .. what a wonderful weekend I had at your establishment. The staff are so friendly and helpful and I enjoyed the cleanliness of the rooms. Awesome stay !"
"Nice clean cozy family unit. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely return. We would however prefer a garden unit. Maybe some activities for kids over long weekends and school holidays would be nice."
"The establishment is quiet and clean the kids loved it"
"The staff were friendly and helpful, and the entire lodge is very neat and secure."
"In die tyd wat ons daar was, dit was in die skool vakansie , was daar geen aktiwiteite nie. Alles was doodstil op een slag was daar net 4 mense in die onderdak swembad en niemand eers in die buite swembad nie. Die lug reeling het nie gewerk en toe moes ons hoor dit is al 18 maande nie in werking nie."
"We were confronted by a bunch of racist kids when we complained to management nothing was done. The breakage fee was not paid back to me on time I had to do numerous follow ups regarding that! The indoor heated pool is not so heated and the place is not clean I could suggest renovations to be done."
"My wife loved the warm water pool. We were not impressed with the bed we got to sleep on. I feelwe paid a bit too much for what we got."
"it was a lovely quiet tranquil stay will come back again, the only issue i had was i expected a shower as per the room information that was sent to me and i didnt get one.<br/>"
"<p>The place was great, clean and very relaxing. The environment is also nice and the people there are friendly. <br></br><br></br></p><p>The pools are always clean</p><p>And yes, i would visit again.. had great fun there<br></br></p>"
"Is a very nice place, the facilities that they offer are worth enough to stay longer. We really enjoyed every minute of our stay and the people are very welcoming. The only problem we experienced is the DSTV package they offer, we had to watch only 3 tv channels that is MNet, SABC 1 and Supersport 1(SS1).<br />"
"We had a very bad experience at Marula and won't use it again. The "Berghuis" was dirty, spider webs all over,splats on the walls as previous occupants killed insects. Ceiling that is falling in, quality of the beds and dirty couch, light fitting in the bathroom is dangerous. None of the swimming pools were heated. A MAJOR difference in pictures on the web and real life experience. They didn't switch on the warm water to the accomodation and we had to bath in cold water for the first night. I can go on and on... Very bad experience indeed!"
"Marula was very peaceful. We did totally relax. We went for walks, cycled and swam in the pool. Our accommodation was peaceful and quiet. Will book again next year."
