The Cabins are very well equipped with everything you could possibly think of! The rooms and beds are comfortable and the views are great! I will certainly return this year again!

"Seldom these days is one greeted with such warmth and sincerity as we were by Joanne! What a fantastic and accommodating hostess! The cabins are beautifully appointed with everything we could need. We particularly enjoyed the Badenhorst Trail and the Reserve Walk.
The peace and tranquility with stunning views of the Magaliesberg Mountains was food for the soul. Intaba Thulile is located close to Cradle of Humankind and a wide variety of restaurants, spas and adventures - some of which we enjoyed during our stay.
The only regret I had was leaving and I really, really hope I can get back there again soon."

"Fabulous service right from booking stage till we left. Joanne is very helpful with any request. Cabin was ready when we arrived. Cabins are perfectly equipped, so no need to leave once you there. Cabins, rooms and linen were all clean. Firewood is provided every morning and outdoor fireplaces are cleaned daily. Walks/cycles on the farm exceeded our expectations. We saw giraffe up close and personal. The farm was fully booked for our last two nights but still very peaceful. With a 1,5 hour drive from Johannesburg the perfect place to recharge from the city. Thanks again Joanne and staff, we have a awesome break.

(South Africa) Selwyn

"A wonderful place of peaceful rest.
Where all one's simple needs are met.
So pack your bags and to the mountain haste
Where one can Nature's soul food taste.
Then with heart and soul renewed,
The problems of the world subdued,
One finds the strength to carry on.

"The most amazing holiday we ever had.
We went for our Anniversary (17 years), together with our 3 daughters....our adventure started...the moment we went through Intaba Thulile's gate... It was Amazing! The cottages were beautiful and comfy....we rode our bicycles and we walked for many miles. Walked among all the wild animals all the bucks and zebras and the beautiful giraffes, and we saw "Willie”but of course the highlight of our amazing holiday was climbing the Magalies mountain! As my 4 year old said as we reached the top..." WE MADE IT" Tired but proud to have conquered the big Magalies mountain!
Thank you Rooms For Africa and of course Joanne

"The chalets/cabins were immaculately finished, clean linen and nice decor. The kitchen had every gadget available including tupperware, candles for flies along with matches and mozzie pad burners for the rooms. One of the staff Mandla treated us like we were his own personal guests, lighting our fire for us every night and clearing away in the morning, chasing ostriches for us and telling us which trail to walk to see the game. The owner also went out of her way to supply us with a laptop charger we had left behind. All expectation exceeded during this stay. Thank you very much."

"Away from the City and into the Blue"

"One often feels the need to "get away from dodge" even although this can only be a short stay before one has to go back to Suburbia and reality, yet getting away to a place which fills all the elements of a good place to be, can cost money, which some of us don't always have.

"One often feels the need to "get away from dodge" even although this can only be a short stay before one has to go back to Suburbia and reality, yet getting away to a place which fills all the elements of a good place to be, can cost money, which some of us don't always have.
I'm a single Mom with a teenage daughter and have been lucky in love to find a man who comes with two teenagers of his own, hence getting away can be trying at times to please all the age groups and allow our "new family" to enjoy time away together. Intaba Thulile was such a lucky find for all of us. It was within our budget, within the right distance just to avoid the moans of "are we there yet" and above all, so tastefully hosted by Joanne. The Chalets were perfect for a home away from home, especially because there was no T.V. which allowed the teenagers to enjoy the Flora and Fauna which they all seem to take for granted at times... Climbing the mountain was a brilliant team building exercise and looking for the animals as the sun set with the stunning mountain background gave us the chance to bond while playing ball games on the field. Talking around a camp fire about life, love and everything in between gave us all new insight to our lives and brought in some old fashioned values which shopping malls, T.V's and cell phones can't replace. This short stay experience was something we will all keep with us and certainly do again. The venue, Intaba Thulie, is a place I will recommend to all my friends, because of the price, distance and experience it gave all of us. Thank you for the memories, it has brought our families closer together.

The farm is so peaceful; the only sounds you hear are from the animals, birds and trees. Nature at its best!

The hiking trail made us realise how our journey has been, it was a symbol of our life and how we persevered and reached the top.

To the Intaba Thulile team thank you so much, you lived up to our expectation and beyond. We will be visiting again soon."
