My daughter and I stayed for 2 nights. The rooms and beds were very comfortable. The gardens are lovely. And the welcome, service and breakfast faultless. I would definitely recommend it.

We already stayed here some years ago, when the lodge's pre-owner Marion and Phil owned this house, so we were exiceted whether the charme and the standard will be the same. Fortunately nearly anything has changed; Marula Lodge and its host Walter May (an original German guy born in Kiel) is a perfect host and he will take of all your wishes and more. The beautiful decorated 7 rooms around the backyard-pool in the garden really let you relax from all the stress of your trip. This guesthouse is a perfect rest for a couple of days and also central base for your sightseeing-trips beside the busy regions. You can easily join a wine-tasting in nearby Robertson valley, visit Cape Algulhas with the most southern point of Africa and many more.

This lodge has one of the best hosts I have ever met. The day before we arrived, we were given tips for special stops. The facility is very well maintained. These were our last two nights on our tour. Thanks to Walter, we felt as if we had always lived there. We were able to end our vacation with a campfire. He also gave us tips for the trip to the airport. His staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

The Marula Lodge was beautiful with stunning gardens and adorable bunnies. Such a beautiful little spot to just stop and enjoy life for a bit, the marula lodge staff are very friendly and helpful yet scarce enough that they aren't in your way. It is peaceful and tranquil, we had a lovely stay.

Very fatigued driving on way back to CTN, I had to stop over and drove through Swellendam and Marula Lodge caught my eye. I phoned to enquire and the lady stated they do have availability. Stopped and upon entering was greeted with such openness by the Manageress and was assisted immediately and a room arranged for my stay. I'm not impressed easily, however the reception was very good, quick response to my inquiry and the Lodge is so nice and tranqual. I had a very good rest and sleep over at MArula and can recommend this to anyone. I have forwarded the Lodge's information to my colleagues who will definately make use of during their travells. I most definately will be using Amarula Lodge again in future. WNS
