We had a wonderful stay at Numida Rus in Marloth Park over the past few days. From the start, the booking process was easy peasy, and communication was smooth and efficient. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from arrival. The location is perfect—peaceful, well-positioned, and close to everything you need. The property itself is very well equipped, and it’s clear that a lot of thought went into ensuring guests are comfortable. Everything you could need is there. Air-conditioning, a gas geyser, a beautiful braai area, and a swimming pool all added to a truly relaxing stay. One of the absolute highlights was the amazing wildlife encounters. Animals come right up to you to be fed—we were lucky enough to see warthogs, kudus, a variety of buck, giraffe, and even a wildebeest that spent most of the day with us. It was unforgettable. Marloth Park itself is very convenient, with a Spar and various restaurants nearby. The property is also close to the Kruger National Park, and safari operators even collect you directly from your location, which made everything effortless. Overall, this was one amazing holiday. A big thank you to James and Estelle, the owners, as well as Alta, Sharon, and Werner from I Secure, for contributing to such a fantastic experience. We would highly recommend Numida Rus and would love to return!

The only thing we missed was a washing machine

such a peaceful escape! I loved the quiet bush surroundings and the chance to see wildlife up close. The swimming pool was refreshing and added to a truly relaxing experience. The owners were generous enough to leave us some pellets for the animals. perfect place to unwind and enjoy nature

Nothing! All was good

The property was very neat and clean

I would’ve liked to have a helper through our stay

The property is spacious, which was a definite plus, and the location is great—set away from the main road in Marloth Park, making it quiet and peaceful, while still being close enough to the shops for convenience.

There were several issues with cleanliness during our stay. From the moment we walked in, there was a strong unpleasant smell that persisted throughout. We also encountered cockroaches, including smaller ones in and on the beds, and found mouse droppings on one of the beds. There were scratching noises coming from the air conditioner or roof, which we suspect may have been due to rodents. In addition, certain areas were not properly cleaned—there were cobwebs and noticeable dust buildup next to the cupboards, and under the beds was also unclean. Basic cleaning supplies were not provided, not even dishwashing liquid, which felt like a minimum requirement for a self-catering property. The toilet paper provided also appeared dusty and unclean.
