Останавливались на одну ночь в апреле. Уолтер - хозяин лаунджа был очень гостеприимным, посоветовал нам интересны места в округе. В номерах и на территории было очень чисто и уютно. Рядом с лаунджем есть парковка, также заказывали завтрак, стоимость 150 рандов, завтрак был также очень вкусным и сытным :) Очень рекомендую данное место.

This guesthouse was an exceptional experience and I felt so well looked after by both Walter and Natasha. I had the most divine breakfast after a good night's sleep. Its centrally located in Swellendam and easy to get anywhere in thd town on foot. Thank you Walter, its a gem, like an oasis

Walter is an excellent host - very welcoming and gave great recommendations on where to eat and other places to visit. My only small neg is the room diffuser was very overpowering and I had to remove it from the room.

We stayed for one night at Marula Lodge whilst touring the Garden Route in March 26. I wish we had stayed longer. The guest house was spotlessly clean in lovely surroundings. Walter, our host was friendly and very helpful with advice on local attractions and restaurants. The area seemed safe to walk around both day and night. We opted to have breakfast at the lodge which was very good value. We would definitely stay again.

The owner was an exceptional host, informing us of places to eat in town ( excellent choice 😉), places to see when we left and the best way to travel. We visited everywhere you suggested and thank you immensely for your advice.

We stayed for two nights at Marula Lodge. Our experience was very good. Nice rooms and a central location. Walter was giving us some great tips and information. We had the absolute best meat on our two week vacation in South Africa at the restaurant De Vagebond in Swellendam. We also went for a hike in the Marloth nature reserve
