Luxury in the wild

“Séjourner chez Florence et JJ n’est pas seulement un voyage mais une expérience inoubliable ! La maison est grande, confortable et décorée avec goût dans un style local mais surtout grâce à sa situation exceptionnelle, nous avons été en communion totale avec la faune et la flore. Ce lieu est paisible, dépaysant et à proximité du Kruger. Nous avons profité d’une formidable sortie safari avec le guide Robert et de 2 dîners au boma, à la belle étoile au Lodge ! Florence, son mari et leurs enfants sont très sympathiques et accueillants. Un grand merci pour cet échange incroyable ! ”

“This house is an African dream! We did not really understand how close to nature it is located until we got here. It was simply magestic and absolutely beautiful We enjoyed the house so much and had a great stay. Communication worked very well and we are so grateful for Florence having us! ”

“Séjour extraordinaire ! Florence, son mari et leur fille Marie sont absolument adorables. La maison est fabuleuse, hyper bien équipée et sécurisée, en plein Marloth park : girafes, phacochères, zèbres... dans le jardin voire sur la terrasse avec piscine ! L'échange a été très simple à réaliser et nous avons retrouvé notre appartement exactement comme il était ! Cette famille est soigneuse, agréable et passionnée !”

“Wendy and I spent a wonderful week in Florence's house in Marloth Park. Initially we thought the house was part of Royal Kruger Lodge as we were directed to their website. However the house was a couple of kilometres away from there. But that suited us fine. We much preferred being on our own rather than a lodge. We had 4 bedrooms to choose from as unfortunately our friends were unable to travel with us at the last minute. It was a difficult choice. All rooms were different. The outdoor area was fabulous and we made good use of the brain and BBQ. We were regularly visited by impala, giraffes, zebras, kudus, warthogs and a very large bush pig. We used the lodge's guide, Robert, to take us on our first game ride into Kruger National Park. He was fantastic. We made 2 further trips into Kruger on our own. In fact saw all the Big 5 on one day as well as a huge range of other animals. Our only disappointment was that the TV and internet ware not connected as advertised, but it wasn't a great problem to visit the lodge a couple of times a day to pick up emails for our own business. Michael and Wendy Price We were very sad to leave but hope to return one day. ”

“Photos do not do this home and experience justice. It truly gives you the wild life experience from the moment you drive in the gates at Marloth Park until you leave. From the house we could watch many buck come and go including kudu, and also saw giraffe, warthog, got a close up experience with 3 Bush babies, and had a whole family of Zebra passing through. The bedrooms are spacious , have a lovely view of nature, and all with ensuite bathrooms. The pool is the perfect place to laze about on a sunny day, and the fire pit great for a braai and watching the animal night life. We would definitely love to go back, and highly recommend this home for friends and family wanting a break from the city life. ”

“Oh my God, I can't express how wonderful this trip was. I wish I would go back every year. Florence family is amazing, her hotel is incredible, and the people who works there is just out of this world. They make you feel comfortable, part of the family and at home. Plenty of activities. I recommend for sure, going there. Best vacation ever. ”

“This was by far the best swap I’ve ever done! And I Swap once a month! This house is magical and surrounded are simply Magical. The the owners, lodge and staff are some of the best people I’ve ever met. We saw animals right in the backyard every day, even saw a giraffe while I was taking a bath! I will definitely go back! The owner will set up fantastic excursions for you as well, the Safaris and lodge dinners are a must!”

“This was our second visit to this property and once again we had an unbelievable time! The hosts are great and couldn't have done any more for us. The house itself is very clean and comfortable and tastefully decorated in truly African style adding to the whole experience. Located within a sanctuary itself, we had animals around the house constantly with giraffe in the front yard on two mornings! We had two full days driving through Kruger which is only 15 mins away, and were literally surrounded by wildlife from when we entered the park till we left, 8 hrs later. It doesn't get any better than that! If you want to self drive Kruger this is the place to stay. I can highly recommend a stay at this property leaving you with lasting memories and a strong desire to return. Thank you Florence!”

“Nous avons passé un merveilleux moment chez Florence! Quel bonheur de cohabiter avec les animaux sauvages en profitant de ce qui peut se faire de mieux en termes d hébergement.... La maison est idéalement située à une trentaine de minutes de 2 portes du kruger Nous avons hâte de revenir ! Merci Florence !”
