"This is a nice property near Phabeni gate of Kruger National Park, which is just a 6 minute drive. Akani is a great host and if you need anything he will bend over backwards to help! You can park right next to your chalet, which is very helpful. - I personally hate lodges where you have to park a distance away! - There is a pub nearby that gets noisy at times, but if you run a fan it drowns out the noise. The property is very close to the main road and is very safe! "

"Ledumo ligger ret besværligt at finde i byen Emalahleni og vejene har meget store huller. Hvis man tager den første afkørsel fra N4 er det bedre, men det virker mere naturligt at tage den anden hvor bynavnet står og så er det svært at finde uden gps. De ville også have penge selvom hotel.com havde givet kvittering for betaling. De ville have at man brugte booking.com. Til sidst fandt de dog ud af at værelset var betalt og vi fik et bedre end det først angivne værelse. Det opfatter jeg lidt...
