Nice and quiet. Just perfect for what we needed. It was a very nice little place. Not very big, but perfect for what we needed.

Lekker en rustig. Net perfek vir wat ons nodig gehad het. Dit was 'n baie oulike plekkie. Nie baie groot nie, maar perfek vir wat ons nodig gehad het.

Very nice stay. Very nice place, exactly what was expected. The owners are very helpful if you ask for anything.

Baie lekker gebly. Baie lekker plekkie, presies wat verwag was. Die eienaars is baie behulpsaam as daar enigiets gevra word.

Very nice place. Very nice stay, swimming pool was the highlight after a hot day. Friendly and very helpful!

Baie lekker plek. Baie lekker gebly, swembad was die top punt na 'n warm dag. Vriendelik en baie behulpsaam!

A worthwhile stay for visiting the KNP. The temperature was unexpectedly hot as we're not used to the area at all. We were pleasantly surprised by some four-legged visitors. We also felt comfortable.

Stop overnight. Was ok. Feels privacy is limited because you are up against 2 other cottages/houses on the same property. You get what you pay for, for sure. Could have at least put hand washing soap in the bathroom. Exterior lights that shine in and you don't have control over turning them off.

Oornag stop. Was ok. Voel privaatheid is beperk omrede jy teen 2 ander cottages/huis is op die selfde perseel. Jy kry vir wat jy betaal, vir seker. Kon ten minste handewas seep in die badkamer gesit het. Buiteligte wat inskyn en nie self beheer oor het om af te sit.

Good overnight stay. We only stayed for one night. Ericka was very helpful and really accommodated us over the long weekend.

Goeie oornag blyplek. Ons het slegs vir een aand oorgebly. Ericka was baie behulpsaam en het ons regtig geakommodeer oor die langnaweek.

Only slept for 1 night. Place needs maintenance.

Net 1 aand oor geslaap. Plek benodig onderhoud.

It's dirty outside and there's a funny smell in the house. Outside upon arrival was dirty and there were no signs of where to go.

Buite is vuil en daar is 'n snaakse reuk in die huis. Buite met aankoms was vuil en daar was geen bordjies van waar om te gaan nie.

Disappointing stay. Koos, the owner, was friendly. The bedding and floor were clean. Unfortunately, we will not book Zazu Cottage again and cannot recommend it. The place has a lot of potential and could be improved a lot with a few small changes. Our booking was for 3 adults. There were no sheets or pillows for the third person, who had to sleep on a sofa. No bedside lamps, so you have to walk in the dark to turn the light on and off. No tables next to the bed to put down a cellphone, for example. The bed is in the corner, so you can only get in from one side. We struggled to get the owner to charge the power for the meter, which was making noise every now and then. The geyser was not turned on. Aircon not working properly. The porch and outside area are very cramped and not like in the photos. Swimming pool was not clean enough to use. No power plug near the mirror to do hair and makeup. One large sofa is in front of the mirror and the other large sofa is in front of the sliding glass door, so it cannot be used. The only rack to hang clothes is above the head of the bed, so inaccessible and unusable. What is sadder is that many other guests have given the same feedback, but it has not been heeded. I can give free advice on the layout of the place and make recommendations if the owners would like to accept my help.

Teleurstellende verblyf. Koos, die eienaar, was vriendelik. Die beddegoed en vloer was skoon. Ongelukkig sal ons nie weer by Zazu Cottage bespreek nie en kan dit ook nie aanbeveel nie. Die plek het baie potensiaal en kan met 'n paar klein veranderinkies baie verbeter word. Ons bespreking was vir 3 volwassenes. Daar was nie lakens of kussings vir die derde persoon, wat op 'n bank moes slaap, nie. Geen bedlampies nie, so jy moet in die donker loop om die lig aan en af te skakel. Geen tafeltjies langs die bed om bv. 'n selfoon neer te sit nie. Die bed staan in die hoek, dus kan jy net van een kant af in klim. Ons het gesukkel om die eienaar te kry om krag te laai vir die meter wat kort-kort geraas het. Die geyser was nie aangeskakel nie. Aircon werk nie behoorlik nie. Stoep en buite area is baie beknop en nie soos op foto's nie. Swembad was nie skoon genoeg om te gebruik nie. Geen kragprop naby die spieël om hare en grimeering te doen nie. Een groot bank staan voor die spieël en die ander groot bank voor die glas skuifdeur, so dit kan nie gebruik word nie. Die enigste rak om klere op te hang is bo die kopkant van die bed, dus ontoeganklik en onbruikbaar. Wat die hartseerste is, is baie ander gaste het dieselfde terugvoer gegee, maar daar is nie ag op geslaan nie. Ek kan gratis raad gee met die uitleg van die plek en aanbevelings maak indien die eienaars my hulp sou wou aanvaar.
