"well kept lawns & gardens with lovely trees + birdsfriendly cleaners wifi non-existentterrible train noise thru the night -passing100m from chalets!!!"
"We booked 7 night stay but only stayed for 3. For the price being charged we expected similar facilities as resorts close by. Unfortunately this was not the case. The establishment did not look anything like the pics and the noisy loud music and train locomotive sounds were very unpleasant. The pool had no sun beds and the river was filled with weeds, you could not see the water. I found the reception lady Jade unreasonable and not a good host, they did not even try to find out how they can accommodate us better."
"1. aircons and/or remotes didn't work2. booking confirmation i had was different than the guest house"
"We could relax en enjoy our stay and rest. Bathrooms are very nice. Scenery was brilliant. Npt much fish this time of the year though but caught a massive eel."
"Everything was just very good."
"Ons het baie lekker gebly in Komati River Chalets. Ontvangs was vriendelik en professioneel. Ons is begroet met netjiese skoon kamers. Die diens van die kamers was net so goed die volgende dag. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het was beskikbaar. Ek sal enige tyd weer teruggaan. 'n Bont hadeda was op die terrein met aankoms.en die fotos op facebook het groot opgewondenheid ontketen."

"We booked in to the chalets for five nights and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Ros was incredibly friendly and helpful with suggestions for all kinds of recreational activities and advice on our intended stay in Mozambique. The chalets were spotless and had all the necessary facilities. There was a couple of hippos and crocs at the bottom of our garden in the scenic and tranquil river and that added to the adventure. We also had close access to the Kruger National Park. A wonderful place for an overnight stayover or for an extended holiday. We will certainly be back!"
"We enjoyed the stay. The only comment is that the wall separating the two chalets could be extended to provide more privacy. Not everyone likest to braai together.For the rest very nice"
"Very nice, clean, comfortable"
"Kevin and Jenny were always available with assistance, and had lots of information on hand about the area.The chalets were within 10km of a popular Kruger NP gate, that provided access to an abundance of wildlife. Perfect distance for self-drives, whilst staying away from the crowds at night."

"This was my first holiday and I can assure you that I had a wonderful time. It was my first experience in the bush and it was marverlous, everything was just perfect. Words cannot describe how lovely the place was it felt like home. A home away from home. I’m considering going back there during the winter season. If I have to go on another holiday, I swear it would be Komati River chalets again and this time I’m going to stay longer. My young one loved it, she even called it mommy’s second house. I must admit that going back home wasn’t such a pleasant thought after visiting Komati river chalets. Hope to see them again soon."

"Although we only stayed one night, we enjoyed swimming in the pool (to the entertainment of the staff) took walks along the river and woken up by the sound of the hippo walking past our chalet. What a truly relaxing experience. No cellphones, no loud music or parties. Just the sound of nature....Thanks for a great experience "
"The resort is very nice, very well set out with all chalets being private and not looking into other units, the chalets are very neat and clean, aircons are a BIG plus. The owners are very friendly without being intrusive, you get a homely feeling being there. We had a very enjoyable stay and would recommend Komati River chalets to our family and friends."
"We really did enjoy our stay and we loved the dog named patches who followed us around, everything was fantastic!!!!"
"It was a neat place with ample room in the bedrooms and washrooms.The lounge and kitchen was very small in relation to the bedrooms though. It would have been nice to have a oven and perhaps a little more counter space in the kitchen. Overall, very clean and lacking nothing."
