Prachtig
Pros:

Prachtige lodge op een mooie locatie. Goed restaurant voor avondeten en aardig personeel. Wij hadden een upgrade naar de 'boomhutten'. Die waren echt prachtig en comfortabel.

Prachtig verblijf in het hart van eSwatini
Pros:

De Mantenga Lodge ligt centraal in eSwatini, dicht bij steden, bezienswaardigheden en safariparken. Het personeel is erg vriendelijk, de tuinman stond na aankomst onze auto te wassen! Verder een goed restaurant, niet duur en winkels en terras in de buurt. De kamer was mooi, wat kleine badkamer maar verder prima.

Perfecto para un relajo máximo
Pros:

La ubicación era perfecta!! Entrar a este lugar, fue sentir una paz increíble…tiene una terraza maravillosa! El staff muy acogedor y las instalaciones muy cómodas (excepto por la puerta del baño que no entrega privacidad). El desayuno muy rico en un ambiente muy acogedor.

Cons:

He visto mucho este sistema de baño en Sudáfrica y ahora en Eswatini, donde las puertas del baño no son herméticas, ni siquiera cierran bien, y eso es incomodo en cualquier circunstancia, con amigos, parejas, familia.

Pros:

A lovely place to stay in Eswatini. The chalets are simple yet tastefully decorated and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The surrounding nature is beautiful, with stunning views. The swimming pool is perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, always happy to assist and provide useful recommendations. Breakfast was served buffet-style and offered a good selection, while dinner was excellent. Nearby, you can visit Mantenga Village, where you can learn about traditional village life and enjoy performances featuring local music and dance. A truly charming place that we thoroughly enjoyed.
