What fabulous hosts Sandra and Paul are -so hospitable, fun and accommodating, welcoming you into their home. Marloth Park is a wonderful wild environment with animals roaming all around-giraffe, wildebeest, Kudu, genet cats etc. It is perfect for access to Kruger ( only 20 mins drive away). Ubuntu B & B Is very safe, spotlessly clean, superb accommodation, spacious and very comfortable ( amazing large bed). Sandra is an outstanding chef, we had the most delicious fresh food very lovingly prepared. Paul and Sandra really do want to make their guests stay as memorable as possible. This place is great value for money.

We came here on short notice because we couldn't get a camp ground in Kruger on the long weekend, and it turned into one of our most memorable stays in all of Africa. The room was flawless, the location amazing. But most of all the hosts made it so special. This was the place where it certainly holds true, you arrive as a customer and leave as a friend. We ended up staying longer, then leaving and coming back, and coming back. Thanks Sandra and Paul for the wonderful stay!

My husband and I had an awesome stay at Ubuntu Bed and Breakfast. On arrival we were warmly received and greeted by the hosts, Sandra and Paul. The neat and clean B&B has great facilities with a truly homely vibe. The en-suite bedroom was luxurious, spacious and comfortable, with great attention to detail. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast each morning prepared by Sandra, and so we just had to try out her tasty dinners too!! Sandra and Paul have a vast knowledge of the animals and birds in Marloth Park and the Kruger National Park, and we enjoyed walks along the river in Marloth Park as well as going for game drives in the Kruger Park with them. We loved sitting in the Boma under the stars at night watching the resident Bush Babies. We had a wonderful stay, thank you Sandra and Paul.

My husband and I stayed at Sandra’s and Paul’s place in February and we had an amazing time. Ubuntu Bed and Breakfast is a luxurious, spacious and sparkly clean home with a pool perfect for chilling during the day or relaxing under the stars.

Sandra and Paul are cheerful and helpful hosts and I can promise that you will be amazed by Sandra’s cooking skills. Her dishes are an exquisit combination of home cooking and high-end culinary technics, warm and thrilling at the same time.

Paul and Sandra are truly passionate about the bush and we had a lot of fun exploring the Kruger park under their guidance. Their knowledge of the Kruger’s fauna is remarkable. We had a wonderful holiday and we can only recommend this beautiful place and their hosts.

My sister and I had been planning a trip to Africa for the longest time and this beautiful place was our first stop and truthfully our best! Firstly and most important Sandra and Paul are there to make your stay unforgettable. They are the friendliest people and really want you to be happy and make the most of your visit so never be shy to ask. We flew into the airport and we arranged for a pickup with Paul. He was waiting for us and drove us to the B&B. On the way already we were enchanted with all the animals and scenery. Upon our arrival I was blown away with how beautiful their place was and the location is perfect. They are directly in Marloth Park so you will see all the friendly animals just walking around, zebras, kudu, giraffes etc...They are right there walking around the properties and sometimes just outside your window! We had a very spacious room which was exceptionally clean and perfect for us. We had our own bathroom and the room was a step away from their beautiful pool! We had the most amazing breakfasts which they made for us daily...I just can't say enough how Sandra and Paul think of all the big and smaller details that can complete your trip. As well they are minutes away from Kruger Park, which we visited 2x. We did an afternoon visit and a full day visit. As they are accustomed to this place they know all the stops to take pics and of course see all the animals you could ever hope to see in South Africa, just WOW. And every stay in South Africa needs a visit to Kruger Park; did I mention they are minutes away? We also did other outings and restaurants together, all of which they are very easy to accommodate with you! To end I must state their place is very safe and again they will do their best to make your stay memorable, which ours was! Thank you Sandra and Paul!

I have stayed at Ubuntu for 11 nights, and from my experience I can recommend it 100%.
Ubuntu is the soul and dream of Sandra and Paul, two great people, with a great character and you can tell they care about their customers, Sandra is a great cook, kind, respectful and has spoiled me with her Cookies, Iced Coffee, Muffins ;-) (Sandra I have gained 1kg with your desserts !!) thanks Sandra :-)
Paul is a great bird connoisseur and I have learnt a lot with his knowledge, it has been a great enrichment for me, thank you Paul :-)

I would also like to point out how clean they keep Ubuntu, and how safe it is, Marloth Park is a paradise, you live in nature and surrounded by animals, Kudus, Impalas, Bushbabys, birds, Giraffes, Zebras, wake up in the morning with the singing of the birds.

I would come back to Ubuntu ? of course, I would come back again without thinking about it!

Dear Sandra and Paul, thank you very much for everything, for your hospitality, your kindness and your sympathy.

A big hug from Switzerland
Alicia
