"Delicious."

Had a great time! It was very much enjoyed.

"Friendly service."

It was very nice. Restful. Private.

"The place is neat and really recommendable."

The area where you are located is incredibly beautiful.

Family with young children

"Outstanding."

Excellent. Friendly reception, close to river and private.

"Very nice."

Very nice and peaceful. Relax well. Enjoy the wildlife around us.

"It was not 4-star."

This is not a 4 star accommodation. Place is clean and tidy, but basslis is not there. No complimentary toiletries. Generator not kicked in, must call manager and ask. No WiFi in the morning. No hot water. The gas was up. Coffee, half a can of coffee. Really could have just thrown the coffee out. Asked if there was aircon or fan, and was confirmed there was both. There was no fan. Not really 4 star.

"Nice stay but couldn't find my shower seat in the shower. I have a leg."

Recommend the longer access route. The shorter dirt road is terribly poor.

"Beautiful forest stay."

Very nice, luxurious unit. Clean and tidy with everything you might need. Breakfast unfortunately not very good value for money.

Family with young children

"Relaxed, full of surprise, food for the soul."

Restful. Relaxed. Family friendly. Own swimming pools, friendly service. Ice and wood on premises for sale.

"Value for money and great service."

Dienslewering is puik.

"Relaxing."

Private stay. Felt free.

"Very tidy, good value for money and close to the river."

We spent a wonderful peaceful weekend. The accommodation is neat and well equipped with everything you need. The owners Colin and Carien and their staff make sure their guests enjoy their stay and can just relax. The accommodation is within walking distance to the river where one can watch the best sunset in the bushveld, and if you are lucky the elephants come to visit the river. Would definitely recommend the place and it's affordable. Thank you for a nice and wonderful weekend.

"Very peaceful and relaxing."

For bird lovers this is a very good place. Various animals that come to visit on the lawn. We were received very kindly and Colin was always available, friendly and helpful.

"Stunning place!"

Clean and tidy, very well located, hostess was incredibly friendly and very helpful.

"Awesome!"

What a awesome wonderful time we had. We were received with a friendly face. Enjoyed the swimming pool, late night braai and nature around us. Thanks to everyone. Will see you again.

Family with teenagers

"Perfect location."

Wow, that's absolutely the best service we've ever received on a holiday. Carien goes the extra mile. For sure we will go again and again! Thank you very much.

"Very relaxing."

Lovely little place. Very friendly people.

"It was a very comfortable and modern establishment."

The place is cosy, easy to locate whether using their worded directions or on the navigator. The layout inside the venue is easy and user friendly. Pity we booked limited time. It would have been wonderful to stay more than 2 nights.

"Value for money second to none."

Doringpoort is home away from home. The owners Heystek and Amanda have visitors' interests at heart as if you were family. With air conditioning that works, comfortable beds, a braai area that is cleaned every day, a splash pool 10 meters away among shady trees and the Kruger's gate 20 minutes away, a getaway could not be more ideal than Doringpoort. This was our second visit and I think Doringpoort sets the standard when it comes to value for money. We would recommend it to anyone.

"Great, owners very friendly and helpful."

Accommodation was clean and neat. Pool was great and clean.

"Fantastic getaway"

We stayed for 3 nights in Doringpoort's Soetdoring accommodation. Carien was very friendly and helpful. The place is very neat and cleaned very nicely every day. I would definitely stay there again, next time for a longer period.

"Nice and quiet."

Good service, clean facilities, and nice surroundings.

"We had a wonderful rest in a beautiful environment."

Very friendly hosts! Deal with problems as soon as possible. Cleaners are friendly and clean beautifully.

"It was an incredible experience to rest and relax in the silence."

Doringpoort: Soetdoring is a beautiful and safe place to call home. The hospitality and cleanliness is amazing. The unit is spacious and caters to all your needs.

"The wildlife park is literally on the other side of the wire. Nice place to unpack and take day trips in the park."

When we stopped there, the zebras grazed peacefully around our little house. Everything was perfect. Silver clean. Nothing was suspended. My husband was particularly impressed with our barbecue area which had everything. There are lovely paths along the river to admire the sunset and if you are lucky there is a lion or 2 or a crocodile to be seen. If it wasn't so far from the Western Cape, we often went there to pack.

"It was fantastic fun!"

Friendly and pleasant people. I even had a barbecue with Heystek and Amanda. Really enjoyed the time there and everything was neat. The animals up to your door were wonderful. I would definitely stay there again. Thank you very much Heystek and Amanda.

"Safe, clean and beautiful place."

We had a great stay. Was so glad about the air con! The place is beautiful and it was great having the guests from the bush on our front porch.

Family with young children

"Amazing. "

Ek reis gereeld vir werk, ek het my 2 klein dogters saam geneem die keer, daar was geen problem gewees nie, ons het marshmallows gebraai, en so 'n lekker aand gehad. Ek sal definitief weer daar gaan bly!

"Very nice places, but beds not up to standard."

Friendly service and nice and clean facilities.

Individual traveller

"Cozy bungalow to use as a base."

All you could ask for to have a comfortable stay. Nice kitchen and braai area. Well situated to Malelane and Crocodile Bridge Gate of the Kruger Park.

"Very peaceful atmosphere. Have fun. Only the roads are very bad."

We thoroughly enjoyed our long weekend. Nice, quiet atmosphere. Fell in love with Marlothpark. Would like to acquire property. Some roads need urgent attention.

"Was very nice and comfortable."

The location and accommodation are very special. Could relax in comfort and will definitely visit again!

"Blissful rest for weary souls."

We were generously received by Amanda who later sat and visited with us in the splash pool. No effort was too much to make us feel at ease and at home. Heystek and Amanda made it a point to find out every day how our stay was going and if there were any complaints. The garden is beautiful and effort has been made to make us aware of wildlife that visits the garden. We saw more animals here that came to visit us than during drives and walks. Despite the heat wave we experienced, the air conditioning kept our nights delightfully cool. The silence and tranquility was an absolute relief after a very busy year and the hustle and bustle of the city. We will definitely visit Doringpoort again in the future.

Individual traveller

"It is a very nice place to stay."

Amanda and her husband go out of their way to make you feel welcome. I will go there again!

"Peaceful surroundings, great accommodation."

Accommodation was very comfortable, very clean and meets any traveler's requirements. Thank you very much for great service!

"Fantastic."

Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed. Would definitely go again but make sure we go healthy.

"It was wonderful and we immediately felt at home when Amanda and Heystek welcomed us. Will definitely go back to visit."

Our stay was wonderful and we immediately felt at home. It's really close to Crocodile Bridge and we were in the wildlife park in no time. Our unit was neat and clean and very nice for 2 people who want to be outside in nature. The wildlife used to stop by regularly and we enjoyed it immensely.

"The place and people there were awesome."

The place and people there were awesome. We can't wait to go back again.

"Perfect getaway from the city."

Our stay was very nice, it was a walk away from the fence to look over the Crocodile River, the animals came in the morning and night. It was very relaxing. Thank you, Amanda.

"Very nice and peaceful and beautiful. Will go again. Not too far."

It is a forest man's world and can relax.

"We thoroughly enjoyed it."

What a feast! Everything was there to make the stay a great treat. If it wasn't so far we would soon be there again.

"Peaceful, relaxing accommodation with value for money."

Rondavel well furnished with everything needed. Friendly and helpful hostess and host. Feel like old acquaintances from the moment you arrive and are warmly welcomed. Will definitely go again.

"Fantastic."

Well received, good service, tidy and everyone very friendly.

"Pleasant, space slightly limited."

Pleasant and friendly people. Facilities good but my wife missed 2 easy chairs and a TV.

"Friendly reception and feels like home."

We were on our honeymoon and decided on the spur of the moment to go to the wildlife park for a few more days. Uncle Heystek responded quickly and made a place available for us. The place is very cute, neat and well furnished. The garden and facilities are beautiful. The Uncle has other places on the land as well which are very very beautiful and also a big house across the road. The wild animals walk in the Uncle's garden. I would definitely recommend visiting there. Blessings.

"Calm and Relaxed. Very well equipped and host and wife very professional and friendly."

We slept there for 3 nights and explored the Wildtuin a bit. Host and his wife were initially out of town but made excellent arrangements with their maid, Nora, and we were received very friendly and professionally. The unit is very well equipped with a nice braai area and outdoor chairs. Cleaning service was painfully neat. Would recommend the place anytime and it's only 20 km from Crocodile Bridge Gate.

"Accommodation is exactly what we wanted."

Many thanks to Heystek and Amanda for your hospitality and concern. They came every morning and evening to make sure everything was right and throughout the day too and they made sure we were familiar with the area. Thanks for the cleaners, it was very nice to drive and when we came back the house was clean. My car broke down and Heystek came to help - thanks Heystek. The Friday night before we left, Amanda sent delicious prawns, my daughter ate very well - thank you Amanda. We will definitely recommend the place and go back there again.

"Very clean and friendly staff."

Can recommend Soetdoring for a peaceful few days in nature.

"Excellent, friendly good service."

We had a great stay and recommend it to anyone.

"Beautiful and neat."

Beautiful place, lovely people and the first night was fantastic. The second night, however, was a nightmare. One of the owner's dogs barked non-stop from 7:15 in the evening til 00:00. I went to look if there was something causing it to bark, but didn't see or hear anything. I first spoke nicely and then more firmly, to no avail, and it barked right by our window. I do believe that if the owner were there it would not have happened and therefore I would return there. Very quiet and a lovely place, really comfortable beds and immaculate. A pleasure to stay there.

"It's a stunning place for a weekend getaway and so clean."

Very peaceful for a weekend getaway. Really enjoyed it and will definitely go again.

"Best ever."

This was the best self catering I have yet experienced. Beautiful, friendly owners made us welcome, even came to see us on the next day, an outstanding experience and well affordable.

"Was good."

Could do with door separating room and bathroom. Shower water must be sorted out, it's either very hot or very cold. Struggling to get combos right. Proposal submitted for blind or curtain in front of kitchen window as everyone can see from outside if the light is on in the evening in kitchen as well as bedroom, otherwise it was very good, fully equipped, safe, very nice and modern.

"Only suitable for overnight stay."

Place is very clean and tidy, but very small. Would recommend for overnight but not for longer. Host and hostess very friendly and helpful.

"Very nice stay."

Neat, clean, friendly and a place where you can rest.

"It was fantastic."

It was fantastic. The people are so friendly.

"It was very neat and clean."

Amanda and Hysteck received us very kindly and we were truly treated like kings. The units are very neat and clean and fully equipped. The unit has its own braai facilities and we had a nice private time around a fire. We will definitely stay there again.

"It was a lovely weekend ─ the owners were hospitable and helpful. We enjoyed braaing there."

Thanks Heystek and Amanda. Nice little place for 2 in the bush. Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Walking distance from Crocodile River. Should've stayed longer and visited the Kruger National Park ─ it's so close by.

"Beautiful unit!"

Many thanks to Heystek and Amanda for your hospitality. It was truly an incredible weekend.

"Relaxing and peaceful."

We arrived as strangers and left as true friends. The visit and accommodation was lovely. Clean, neat and Amanda and Heystek really are wonderful people: hospitably, friendly and helpful. We really recommend it. Will definitely be returning.
