Reviews of Walking Tall Lodge


"Nice place but not very clean"

Nathalie Da Fonseca

"A comfortable stay in a relaxed and private environment. They can definitely improve on the cleanliness, especially kitchen utensils and appliances that were filthy dirty. We also had to wipe down the couches as they were grimy. Besides that it is a lovely place with everything you need. "


"Super close to Kruger with great views"

Amanda Nagy

"The house was very well equipped and comfortable. We didn't wish for a single item! It is very close and convenient to the Crocodile Bridge gate into Kruger. We would definitely stay again and will recommend to our friends. "


"Having the wildlife right on the doorstep!"

Susan Nganjo

"Fantastic stay! We especially enjoyed the Crocodile River and the wildlife!"


"Relaxing stay in the bush with lots of animal viewing"

Taryn Donaldson

"We had such a lovely 5 night stay at Walking Tall. Our highlight was definitely all the visitors. As we arrived we were welcomed by a herd of Kudu. Followed by warthogs, zebra, mongoose, lots of birdlife and giraffe in the park. One female kudu even ate from our hands. The accommodation was perfect,..."

"We had such a lovely 5 night stay at Walking Tall. Our highlight was definitely all the visitors. As we arrived we were welcomed by a herd of Kudu. Followed by warthogs, zebra, mongoose, lots of birdlife and giraffe in the park. One female kudu even ate from our hands. The accommodation was perfect, well equipped and secluded. Pity about the ongoing traffic noise from the main road. 2 trips into the Kruger had us seeing lion, leopard, elephants, buffalo, wild dog, and so much more."

"A real bush adventure"

(South Africa) Paul Bertie

"We had a wonderful couple of days at Walking Tall. The Marloth reserve is very well organised and is great to use as a base for Kruger day trips.

Walking Tall was very well equipped and suited us perfectly. I hope to come back soon. "


"Walking Tall"

(South Africa) Herman Potgieter

"We had a great family break staying at Walking Tall. Will definitely be back. A little bush retreat away from home in the bush. Axe would be nice at the fire place.

Thank you

"Had an awesome time, the only unfortunate thing about the stay was the water situation, because of the drought the reseviour ran dry but thankfully the owner had a JOJO tank connected to the house so we were able to shower before leaving. Other than that we enjoyed spotting the different animals every morning coming to drink from the water hole."

"Marloth Park, Walking Tall, Self Catering House"

(South Africa) jo jacobs

"We enjoyed our stay. The 'tame' wildlife, not scared of humans, walking around the house, was the highlight! We had warthog, giraffe, kudu, 'tarentaal', mongoose and 'rooibok' visiting us.

"We enjoyed our stay. The 'tame' wildlife, not scared of humans, walking around the house, was the highlight! We had warthog, giraffe, kudu, 'tarentaal', mongoose and 'rooibok' visiting us. Riding around, we also saw zebra. Enjoyed the Oasis restaurant on the Crocodile River. Here we saw crocodile, hippos and a huge 'likkewaan'. The house, we felt, had two problems. One. The spa.The heater, could not be set and the tap filling it up has no pressure.This all resulted in a constant battle to get the water acceptable. Two. The road. The house is close to the main road. We could not sleep late one morning. At six the very loud pedestrians and busses, cars and trucks woke us up and disturbed the peace. We could only hear the river,and the hippos from about 19h30 at night, when the road's noise subsided.(keeping in mind, we were there over a midweek, weekends might be better. And we do live on a smallholding, so we are not used to any road noise around us. It is very quiet where we stay). Other wise, we thank the owners, specially for the extra hour.(The house is beautiful and well equipped for a self catering house). The field security office for their excellent service. The friendly staff, at the little shops. Marloth Park is well worth a visit."


"Weekend Stay"

(South Africa) Nicholas Sham

"Walking tall was a lovely place to stay. Only problems I had was the remote for the air conditioner in the main bedroom was missing and it was very hot, the unit was not cleaned 100% as the balcony and Jacuzzi were dirty, and the single seater couches were torn and old."


"An amazing time"

(South Africa) Elke Smit

Can also recommend Serene Oases Restaurant which is right on the river and a great place to eat and have cocktails, while watching the game go by.

Will definitely be back."


"Great stay"

(South Africa) Johan Smit

"We had an excellent time at WalkingTall. The first morning at 06:00 giraffes were right beside the house, drinking water out of the pond. We enjoyed the boma area with the Jacuzzi and braai. It was a great escape from the rat race!"

The house is ideal for more than one family and everything that was required was available.

For sure a joy to have stayed in this house and would recommend this to anyone !!!"


"Bush Birthday Getaway"

(South Africa) Boniwe Langeni

Everything we needed was in the unit all the amenities including cleaning detergents were provided for us. Thank you for a wonderful stay. "

"We had a great time at Walking Tall. Lovely location with many amenities. We had many visitors stroll by the house each day from warthogs to giraffe, impala and zebra.

Unfortunately, the electricity was out for two out of our six night stay; which hindered cooking, stopped the much needed air-conditioning and forced us to stumble about with wax-dripping candles.

Nevertheless, we worked around the untimely bouts of no power.

I would definitely recommend Walking Tall.

Jacque, the owner of Walking Tall, was very helpful and accommodating.

Fantastic getaway in Marloth Park. Thank you!"


"Excellent"

(South Africa) Giovanni Schule

"The lodge is superb for a short holiday. We enjoyed to be greeted in the morning by Zebras, Whartdogs and even Giraffs.

My business friends from Switzerland

enjoyed it also tremendously.

Thank you very much we had a great time."


"Great place to stay"

(Germany) Monika Stein

"Walking Tall was our place to stay for little more than 1 week in August. Great place to see animals from the balcony or terrace (a herd of zebras came visiting, kudus and warthogs were everyday-visitors), but also a great place to relax after a safari in Kruger."


"Wonderful"

(South Africa) Desre Ranft

"We had a wonderful relaxing time away from the everyday 'HUZZ&BUZZ'.

Special thanks to Jacque for this lovely place!"


"Heerlik gebly"

In the evening we could have a relaxing moment in the Jacuzzi whilst being surrounded by zebra. Lovely accommodation. Everything you need is there and only 300m walk from the Crocodile River. Thank you for making our break so nice and relaxing!"


"The best in my experience "

"This is a spacious and comfortable house near Kruger and also easy to find within Marloth Park. The owner was efficient and helpful as was the person who handed over the keys. It has a wonderful balcony which we sat on at night and the first night managed to lock ourselves out on it. Jumping was not an option, so we had to sound the alarm. The security people were there within 6 minutes which was not just great for us but also reassuring. Animals would come through the garden regularly and sometimes decided to park themselves there for a while which was a fabulous plus. The house was well appointed and the facilities all worked perfectly, and the jacuzzi was an added bonus.

The Crocodile River is close by and we would drive to the lookout points which have wonderful views over the river - this view cant be seen from the Kruger side by the way as the road in Kruger that is parallel to the river is set further in land so the Marloth Park views are unique. In order to drive on the bumpy back roads of Marloth one really needs a 2x4 or a car higher off the ground, as only the main road is tarred.

We had a wonderful stay and I would recommend Walking Tall as great value and a super location for friends and couples wanting to visit Kruger and the area."


"Amazing"

(South Africa) Deon Pelser

"We had an amazing time! Saw plenty of game. The Jacuzzi was a bonus! The house is stunning! Will go back soon!"

"Comfortable"

(South Africa) Frieda Seed

"Walking Tall Self-catering"

(South Africa) Frans Rantsolase

"Wow, what an awesome place, marvelous. There are no words that can start explaining the beauty and tranquility of the place. Waking up in the morning, seeing the like of zebra, giraffe and gemboks and impalas. That was a breath taking experience."

"What a fantastic holiday. The house was stunning. We arrived in the late afternoon at the house, to be greeted by 3 Zebra's. They where right in front of the door, and at one point I thought that we where sleeping in the car for the evening, but they soon left and did some inspection around the vehicle, then off they went to the waterhole right in front of the house. The rest of the holiday was thoroughly enjoyed, in and out of the Kruger Park. The evening's at the house brought with them the sounds of Lion roaring, which sounded like they were just outside our door (thankfully not), as well as the calm and tranquil sounds of the African bush and wildlife. A big thank you to Jacque who ensured that all our needs were met and that we had a most enjoyably stay.

We would definitely recommend Walking Tall to anyone looking for a peaceful and relaxing holiday."


"Great stay"

(South Africa) Jinneyh van Rooyen

"We loved our stay. Thank you so much. We are definitely coming again, hopefully for longer, after my baby is born, he can experience the wild life at such a young age. I loved everything about the place. Thank you for a great stay and for looking after us all."
