This review is overdue, but life got in the way. I don't even know where to begin here. I almost hesitate to share because I really want to keep this getaway to myself.
My husband and I were able to squeeze in a quick weekend in to celebrate our anniversary before our first grandson is born. I don't know how I was fortunate enough to stumble upon Marula, but I'm so thankful I did. Every single detail is so meticulously thought out and every amenity you could think you need is available. You really could just show up with a few changes of clothes and have everything you need to be comfortable.
The outdoor shower was a beautiful touch and all the artifacts in the home are really, really cool!
The hostess was the kindest, most genuinely warm soul. So much so I felt like we were friends after our first meeting.
The views are so calming, it's so quiet your ears ring and the views at night are breathtaking. You feel like you're away from everything, yet you're close enough to a few small towns that if you choose to, you can spend time exploring some fun sites. We loved the golf cart rides looking at the wildlife and got an up close and personal visit from Mr. Carl himself, right off the back porch.
My only regret is not booking longer. We WILL be back.
