Makhato Bush Lodge 18

This Makhato unit is particularly nice as the bedrooms are very big and there is a nice upstairs balcony. It is also good to have a proper kitchen table, not just a high breakfast bar.

The upstairs room fan only had a super fast setting, which was too loud to sleep with it on, so it needs a new controller with several settings available.

I loved the beautiful braai lapa which is spacious, covered, ample seating and close to the chalet. Loved that there are 3 bedrooms each with it's own private bathroom. Kitchen is fairly well equipped as well.

The bed mattresses are the worst that we have ever experienced. Worn, hard, noisy, extremely uncomfortable. I have reported this issue before, we were hoping that it had been rectified by giving the property another chance as this could be lovely chalet. However, the owners have not bothered to replace the mattresses irrespective of a fairly high price point. I have also noticed that almost every guest complained about this. Water was leaking from the toilets - the flushers are faulty and still not repaired. It does seem that the owners are really not paying attention to customers' feedback.

The keys situation, I think the reception area is poorly positioned

Location awesome

Dirty crockery and cutlery. Worn mattresses on the beds, toilet not resetting after flushing, handsoap in the bathrooms were almost empty
