We book in with timeshare RCI, 2/6 bed for four of us, from 8 June 2009 to 12 June 2009, not sure how timeshare still book in people in at Mabula. We visit Mabula a few times before and find it was the best place to visit, but not any more. We could see the appearance of Mabula is not... more

We just returned from a trip to South Africa, which included Mabula Game Lodge close to Joburg. The place is very popular as it is one of the better and larger private game reserves in the area. We were a family of 2+2 and were accomodated in two twin rooms next to each other. Rooms were comfortable and of a... more

We booked Mabula Game Lodge on the basis of an article in a local newspaper and were a bit apprehensive about how it would turn out. But we had a fabulous time there. The room was clean & comfortable and had a rustic feel. The food was awesome. A mention is must about courteous and very helpful staff. Game drives... more

Stayed here at the recommendation of our clients we were in South Africa to do work for and so glad we did. There's some bad reviews on TripAdvisor about this place, but they've really fixed whatever they were doing wrong. The lodge is wonderful, the rooms clean and well maintained, the restaurant and food and service all fabulous and the... more

Myself and friends stayed at the timeshare units at Mabula Lodge from 16 to 20th Feb 2009. The resort is busy with renovations until May this year and this is very disappointing. Theonly pool open is the main pool and it is right next to the restaurant and unless you like being gawked at by the dinners, it's not pleasant.... more

I am not surprised at some of the reviews listed here. If you come to Mabula expecting world class amenities and treatment, then you would be disappointed. I came to Mabula with no expectations except to relax and to be open minded to my new experience. Visiting from the States, I did not want to place to much on the... more

We stayed at Mabula Lodge on the 21st and 22nd Jan. I am not being judgemental, but reading very bad reviews had made me skeptical about the place. We agreed to go to Mabula, only because it was a private game reserve and had an Indian chef. But, the staff at mabula made it a wonderful experience for us. As... more

We had a great time at Mabula Game Lodge. This was an exchange through RCI for a 2 bedroom lodge. As a third couple was staying with us, we had requested a 3 bedroom. When we checked in late at night, we were thrilled to be given two 2 bedroom lodges next to each other. We enjoyed the game drives... more

We have just returned from a mid week break at Mabula Timeshare booked with RCI. We have stayed there a number of times over the past fifteen years but have not been for the past five as we could not get in! Unfortunately since our last visit the standard has dropped not in one great thing but a lot of... more
