A huge thank you to our host who was incredibly accommodating and detailed with information about Marula and all it had to offer.

We spent our 28th anniversary here and it was wonderful. It was relaxing and quiet. The view was beautiful! The only problem was that we were only there for 2 days. We will be going back for a longer stay. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Great way to spend a few days

Absolutely wonderful! The place was amazing beyond expectations. Wild life was everywhere from the abundance of native birds to the African deere things lol. Oh and I absolutely loved the laptop and the dvds what a beautiful touch of realism to the "glamping" aesthetic.

27th anniversary getaway

We enjoyed our stay, everything met our expectations from cleanliness, comfort, nice and quiet. Close proximity to towns for day trips, eating, entertainment. Property has no other houses around or shared property with owner so we truly had privacy we could enjoy the hill top view and quiet time.

Most beautiful little getaway!

This is our second time to stay at Marula, and we're hoping it won't be our last. This is the perfect private getaway for relaxing, slowing down, and enjoying nature. It is fun to lay on the patio or in the pool and watch the animals go by. The host is so easy to communicate with. Would highly recommend for a couple looking for a quiet weekend.

Glamping near its finest!

Private, quiet and intimate with a wonderful view and great access to the surrounding Hills Country, and its sights and communities. Well-appointed kitchen for eating in, and good restaurants within a reasonable drive for dining out, Overall, if you use a little imagination, it almost has the feel of a real African safari. Very cool!

What a peaceful place

If you would like to get away to somewhere quiet where there are no distractions, I highly recommend Marula. The exotic animals are a real treat. Marula is far enough out to be quiet but still close enough to Kerrville and Fredericksbirg to find plenty to do. The accommodations are great and even on a 100 degree day the AC is surprisingly good.

Amazing place

Had a great time, very relaxing, beautiful scenery and decorated perfectly. Was a fun experience in the tent but with all the amenities of home. Also has a well stocked kitchen and was very clean so no need to go out if you plan ahead and cook yourself. Also centrally located to most of the hot hill country spots, Fredericksburg, Kerrville, Boerne, comfort are all just a few short drives away. Lisa was a great host and very responsive, will definitely be back.

We have been to several game parks in Africa and Lori has replicated the experience incredibly well. We love the attention to detail and the privacy. Everything was perfect. We will definitely look for the opportunity to come back.
