Very good experience staying in the safari tents. However, the food available for breakfast was not the best. I would suggest they offer freshly brewed coffee instead of packets. The continental breakfast could do with more variety.

No water and staff staying in our room

Our room had a staff member living in it. We were then 'upgraded' to another room that was dirty with no water for our whole stay. Tried finding staff but no one was around agter 5pm. We eventually found a security gaurd who told us the whole resort had no water and this was normal.

Listing and website did not provide information about the dilapidated conditions that the fire left behind. Breakfast was supposed to be included but they were unable to provide it due to the restaurant being burnt down. The pool was also inaccessible for the same reasons. There was also no electricity during the majority of the trip. There was a generator providing electricity for the chalets but not the tent camp. Staff were very friendly and the beds were nice. Staff kept ablutions well cleaned.

Sad...

Hi, Sadly Manyane has not been maintained well since the fire in the main building, it does not offer a free breakfast, only toasted sandwiches which you pay for and the tents around the doors have been cut open so it did not feel safe to leave ones belongings in the tents. The abloution block is dirty and only a few taps and showers worked. The staff are trying really hard but in general, management of Golden Leopard Resort should fix what was once the best resort in the Pilanesberg. It was a sad and frustrating stay there.

There was no mention that the place is burned down with limited facilities available. The telephone number listed on google maps is not working. The central reservation number listed on your web site is not working. Emain enquiry is not answered. Please get your act together. The staff at the resor changed us to another resort, which was ok. But also needs a bit of love, care and tenderness to make it comfortable again.

A relaxing and en enjoyable 3 nights. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Food was very good, but the choice was limited. Especially if you choose the half board option, you have to take the set menu, which has limited options. However, it was very tasty and well prepared. The main issue was the access to the internet. It was very intermittent and was rarely available around the chalets. Indeed it was also very slow, or not even working around the main block as well. I had some work which I couldn't finish due to this problem. This unfortunately will likely ensure I wouldn't return in future, this issue really needs to be addressed. All the staff: at the restaurant, chalet cleaners, security and front desk were very welcoming and helpful.

Nothing was mentioned that a year ago 47 chalets burned down due to a bushfire. A week before arrival the reception area, kitchen and dinning room burned down. Breakfast was include in the price, must be taken in another camp at proximité 30 minutes driving. The swimming pool was green Our reservation for two was with kitchenette etc included, the our rental we received was a very small room with no kitchen sink, nothing. Air conditioning was leaking … but was fixed After 30 minutes discussion we received two decent chalets with everything included. Our two chalets were great at that time. In the past Manyane was a great place to stay, this time it was a ghost town with only four chalets occupied. The next morning our neighbours moved out . We were alone in the camp except some campers. This time our stay was not great no fun at all. Staff in Manyane was very helpful and friendly to assist us.

Excellent stay, excellent service.

On arrival we were told that we were booked in unit 2A. When we came back from our drive in the park I asked and was given the key to 2A. Then, when we told them at the reception that there was no grit in the shower and the heater did not work, we were told that we actually are in unit 1. I think his name is Victor, helped us to move ourb elongings into unit 1. He was so helpful and friendly. Hold onto him. Unit 1 was excellent. At 6pm two tired ladies went for dinner. Service was excellent and the food was tasteful and of good quality. Just a pity, the stock of venison steak had not been restocked as it was Monday. My friend from the UK would have enjoyed a kudu steak. Otherwise. We have no complaints. Breakfast and check out was good and friendly. (We ate much to much.) All in all: I had good service once again and I shall be back.

Das Restaurant und fast die ganzen Chalet wurden vor einem Jahr vernichtet. Grossbrand und das wurde ins nicht mitgeteilt. Es ist zur Zeit alles behelfsmässig offen. Das Personal bemüht sich sehr. Vom Management hat man nicht gesehen. Das Essen wurde in einem (Präsidentenchalet) serviert. Alles in kleinem Umfang. Zum Dinner konnte man ins Nachbarresort fahren(ein Weg 17 km) und auch dort hatte es viele Speisen die auf der Karte waren nicht. Es wurde uns auch nichts zurück erstattet. Da wir schon zum dritten mal im Resort waren sind wir sehr enttäuscht. Ich würde es zur Zeit keinem empfehlen. Auf der Homepage sieht alles wie immer aus. Da steht nichts von Grossbrand.

Attention le Manyane Resort n’est plus fonctionnel. Après l’incendie de mars il n’a toujours pas été réhabilité. Nous sommes arrivés dans un No Mans Land, nous étions les seuls touristes face à des chalets désaffectés (et squatés pour certains?). Malgré la gentillesse des quelques employés sur place, l’endroit est inquiétant. Nous avons demandé à être transféré à Bagktala où nous avons passé un excellent séjour.
