Addo lodge was lovely. Leanne the manager was super friendly and helpful. She booked our safari of Addo with Norman from Sundaze adventures. That was fantastic. Norman was awesome. The spar shop and taste of Africa restaurant was a 2minute walk away. The food was delicious, generous portions and inexpensive. The lodge also had lamod that worked during load shedding. The restaurant was open during load shedding. The bed was comfortable and the shower was hot and powerful

    Super location just five minutes away from Addo Elephant National Park. This made it very easy to be at the park at the opening. Besides its great location, the apartment is very well equipped and nicely maintained. The garden area with mini-pool is nice, as is the access to the private jetty overlooking the river (with nice sunsets and lots of birds). Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would recommend this apartment to anyone looking for a nice place very close to (but outside of) Addo Elephant NP.

    The location and specially the view to the ocean is wonderful. We could keep watching how the waves came against the rocks. The whole area is beautiful and we walked to the Cathedral Rock via the beach. Enrique (restaurant is very close).
