Each caravan stand has a standard 3-pin power plug point available for guests to connect their caravans or camping equipment. If you are staying on the back stands, we recommend bringing an extension lead long enough to comfortably reach your caravan setup area.
Each caravan stand is approximately 7m x 7m, giving you enough space for a caravan, an awning setup, seating area, and your braai space. Layout may vary slightly by stand, but the sizing is consistent across the sites.
The shade net pole height is approximately 3 metres, providing comfortable overhead clearance for standard caravan setups. The shade net density is 90%, which offers excellent shade and helps reduce heat during warmer days.
Yes, braai facilities are provided at the stands and all braais include a braai grid.
Stands 1–10: have built-in brick braais
Stands 11–18: have ploughshare (ploegskaar) braais
Each option is suitable for a proper South African braai and is maintained for guest use.
The ablution facilities are divided into Ladies and Gents sections:
Ladies:
1 bath
2 showers
3 toilets
Gents:
1 bath
2 showers
2 toilets
The ablution facilities are serviced regularly to keep them clean and comfortable for guests.
Yes, washing-up facilities are available on-site. There are:
2 dishwashing sinks (for washing dishes)
2 laundry troughs (for washing clothes or general washing tasks)
This makes it easy for caravan guests to manage day-to-day cleaning during their stay.
Lighting differs depending on your stand number:
Stands 1–10: have electric lights
Stands 11–18: have solar lights
This helps ensure the stands remain practical and safe at night, even in areas where solar lighting is used.
River views are available from stands 1–9. These stands are positioned closer to the river and are ideal for guests who want the most scenic setting and that relaxed riverfront feel.
Yes, the resort is known as a very safe destination. Marloth Park is a popular holiday area, and guests generally experience a relaxed and secure environment during their stay.
The swimming pool is approximately 200 metres from the caravan stands. It is an easy walk and convenient for families who want quick access to the pool area.
No, wishy-washy facilities are not available on the resort.
Guests often see free-roaming wildlife in and around the resort area. Common sightings include:
Warthogs
Impala
Bushbuck
And sometimes kudu
Wildlife sightings vary daily, but it’s one of the special parts of staying in Marloth Park.
Occasionally, water and electricity issues can occur. These are usually temporary and related to the area’s supply. We recommend bringing basics like a torch/lantern and being prepared for rare interruptions, especially during busy periods.
For the back stands, we recommend bringing an extension lead of approximately 15 metres to ensure you can comfortably reach the power point depending on where your caravan is positioned on the stand.
For guests towing caravans, the best route is via the second Marloth Park turn-off onto Tenbosch Road. This route is a tar road all the way to the resort, making it the most convenient option for towing.
Yes, staff assistance is available.
Setup and pack-down assistance: R100 per staff member (for setting up and taking down)
Dishwashing assistance: available by choice, depending on what you need
If you’d like assistance, it’s best to arrange it in advance or ask on arrival so availability can be confirmed.
