Leuk verblijf naast de southgate van Addo Elephant Park

Leuke locatie op 2min rijden van de southgate van Addo Elephant Park. Erg vriendelijke hostesses. Mooi hoofdgebouw met restaurant (tijdens ons verblijf boden ze elke dag iets anders aan voor diner, dus geen a la carte menu), bar, zwembad en grote tuin met schommel/klimrek voor de kinderen. Wij hebben in de avond heerlijk gegeten en we konden voor de kinderen vaak nog iets anders (bv. tosti of pasta) vragen.

Wij zaten in de selfcatering chalet. Deze is heel ruim maar wel erg verouderd. Als het goed is gaan ze deze mid 2024 renoveren.

Nie mehr ein Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft.

Top Lage in der Nähe zum Ado Elephant Park.

Die Unterkunft ist ungepflegt und heruntergekommen. Es gibt nichts in dem Zelt ohne irgendwelche Schmutzflecken. In der Duschkabine ist Schimmel. Auf Pflege und Reinigung wird offensichtlich von den Betreibern kein Wert gelegt. Ich habe in den letzten 12 Jahren Reisen durch Südafrika noch nie so eine schmuddelige Unterkunft erlebt. Zum Glück war die Aufenthaltsdauer nur eine Nacht. Schade. Die Lage ist Top.

Fantastisc

We enjoyed our stay deeply! We are traveling with two children of 1 and 3 and were a bit hesitant to book because it seemed impractical with small children to sleep in a tent, but it was not at all. The park is beautiful, well maintained and the staff is super friendly. They provided a high chair, two camping beds because our oldest (3) kept falling out of the big beds, and a microwave because the youngest is not eating pizza and fries yet. We were able to go on a safari with our children, which they enjoyed a lot. There is a playground, swimming pool and small animals on premise (and a big kudu!). The beds are the best we have had on our trip with warm blankets.

If anything they can be clearer about the prices of the drinks they served. We paid at the end and were provided a total without specifics. This was fine for us, but maybe not when you're on a budget.

Poor

Spacious chalet. Good location. Close to addo elephant reservation.

The chalet was nothing like depicted in the pictures. It's definitely not worth the rate. The rate was equal to a luxurious stay, but what we got was far far from it. Not recommended at all.

Family Bush Break!

Very close to Addo South gate. Family of 5, and they catered to our needs. Stayed 4 nights in a luxury family tent. Spacious. 2 bedrooms with BIG beds. Great linen and comfortable beds. hairdryer. lots of plugs and adapters. aircon and heaters with extra bedding. bathroom with shower and beautiful bath and toiletries. fridge. microwave. as we have small children, they provided extra crockery. great wifi! what a view on the stoep!! even a braai! daily cleaning service. free roaming animals in the park. kids enjoyed this. jungle gym. swimming pool. Daily breakfast. Best omelet. 👌 Very friendly staff! Thanks Karin!! Bonus was that we saw an elephant from our stoep on two occasions. Leaving super relaxed!

Needs maintenance here and there, but did not take away from this great bush experience and great location!

We were a bit disappointed, for the price we would have expected a bit more.

The Location just in front of Addo Elephant Park Main Gate ist great! The rooms are well equipped with water cattle, Coffee/Tee and a big bed.

We were looking for a lodge with Restaurant, and even though this lodge states in booking.com it has Restaurant, we were sent to a Restaurant 3,8km away. There ist no Restaurant at the property, they only serve breakfast.

Close to Addo Elephant National Park

Nice and comfortable glamping tents very close to the ADDO Elephant National Park. We can recommend staying here for visiting the park. The accommodation also booked a great Game drive tour for us and served good breakfast.

The Tents are huge and very luxurious. They stand far apart from eachother and you can spot a lot of animals right on your terrasse. The beds are comfortable with good quality linen. We had a very good time.

The tent was super comfortable with all the amenities. The location is amazing - super close to the South part of Addo Elephant Park, where if you're lucky you can even see animals in the park from the accommodation premises. It was also nice to have the pool, and you can also book a game reserve tour of Addo through them!

The best place in South Africa

This was definitely the best place I stayed in South Africa. The bed was comfortable, the food was amazing, the stars were incredible and the staff were divine. I arrived with no food and no transport and they bent over backwards to make sure I was thoroughly taken care of the entire time. Highly, highly recommend. Thank you so much!

Nothing.

Great stay and would stay again

Comfortable beds, wifi worked well, wildlife on premises was great, outside patio was really nice, great views from Kudu Chalet, the chalet had everything you needed, easy parking, only 2km from south entrance to Addo Elephant Park, other activities close by, you will need a car to get around, employees are super friendly and helpful, everything was smooth and we had a great stay

Everything was a little bit dated, but it didn't hurt the overall experience and comfortability of the chalet (Kudu), limited restaurants/grocery stores in the area,

we left directly!!!

the location is really good, very close to the park. they could do sth nice, a pity that instead it’s a mess.

we booked the tent bc it looked great on the picture and bc there are a lot of good reviews. Getting there I can‘t explain them anymore. The tent didnt look at all like on the pictures. it was dark and dirty. the employee directly offered us a room in the house. but the house wasnt any better. everything dirty, ants in the bed, spiders around. the pool was so dirty and therefor inusable. the terasse and breakfast area didnt invite you to eat there. when i told the woman that worked there that we wont stay for one of the two booked nights she said „I understand“ and that she is sorry. we didnt see no other guests btw, it felt like a ghost house. such a pity, esp bc the ground and location have so much potential!

Very good

Great rooms, lovely pool, nice breakfast and good location near addo

We didn't have water for two days due to a pipe bursting in the area which affected breakfast options and showers (not the hotels fault but we still felt the inconvenience!). WiFi wasn't very strong in the tent

Great location, great accommodation, great service, great food, and great people!!

The location was perfect as the lodge sits right at the entrance of Addo. The breakfast was excellent - many choices and all scrumptious options. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone. Karin is the absolute best!

There really wasn’t anything we didn’t like. Everything meet and even exceeded expectations. I don’t have any criticisms. The prices are reasonable, especially during high season. Again, nothing to criticise.

Self catering chalet close to Addo South Gate

Proximity to Addo.

Compared to other establishments we visited during our road trip, we received the least communication from Parkview, both leading up to our stay, as well as when visiting for 3 nights.

Passable

Location very good for the Addo National Elephant Park South Gate. Breakfasts whilst there were excellent.

We thought there was a certain lack of friendship during our short stay. Dinner was not available on the Sunday evening. No Maid service provided on the Sunday. For the price paid we had hoped for better.

not very relaxing

We got a room with a view of the parking lot, and right besides reception. you could hear cars pull in and out, could here people in the reception area and even in the dining room. when people went outside to smoke, it was right in front of your window so you could hear them and smell the cigs. we came here for peace and quiet, but we did not get that. this was horrible value for money. the room is fine in itself but way overpriced for the location on the property.

Average.

Excellent location and I assume that’s what you pay for. It’s the location you pay for here, not quality at this price point. Having said that, owners and staff were very friendly. For clarity, we were staying in the lodge and not in a tent. The room was ok, as was the bathroom, although both needed a bit of work, but the accommodation really wasn’t worth £99. Not when compared to the other places we’ve stayed in on this trip and not even compared to the UK. Nothing wrong, just all a bit average for a not so average price. It’s the price we had an issue with, not the accommodation. One small thing - there’s a hairdryer with a European plug - a round one, which doesn’t fit into the power outlet, nor in the African adapter provided. Was a tad annoying.

See above.
