On Saturday night there was quite a bit of noise coming from a nearby village (party)

Helping the community and working together with volunteers to create a better tomorrow. Cosy outdoor lounge, very green garden and surroundings.

I would expect a place like this to be totally off grid or least be prepared enough for the current black outs the country is experiencing. A load shedding schedule should be relayed to stay over guests. A proper camp orientation would be nice, esp around the kitchen. A fan in the tent, esp during summer months would be such a winner.

The location is great, the staff are all amazing, Wellington is a good host, with great on knowledge of the general area.

shower was old

We stayed in the little tent and it was perfect. The tent stands on a wooden floor (I stayed in other tents like this before where there was no platform under and this was quite uncomfortable because of weather, insects and dirt). Also the tent is under a extra roof. We had no problems with insects. Inside its furnished nicely. You have everything you need and it’s clean. The whole camp is built of recycled materials and a lot of love. Really liked the area. I also loved the dogs and donkeys in the camp.

It was noisy (maybe neighborhood)unti very late at night.

It is very close to a Kruger national park. There is a kitchen and breakfast(egg, yorgurt, bread, cereal) was included.

The neighbours of my tent was very noisy at 4h30 am And I found the tente a bit expensive for what it is

we were well received, the place is very nice and very pretty, everything is recycled, it is well placed and very quiet, I ask them where there was a car wash and they told me that I could clean it here and so that's what I did thanks for thanks I recommend!!! 👌👌👌✅️✅️✅️

- Shannon, their worker (she said, that she works for them). :-/ She was flirting with me first 2 nights and said, how she visits me later alone - yes, it was pleasant. But later she said, that it was just joking. I hate lies and it is NOT nice, how Shannon behaved to me like a guest. - sometimes was staff of this place really loud, also after 23:00....

The staff made us feel at home instantly. From the get go we lived among eachother as if we've done it for years. Shik Shack Backpackers is like a huge mansion, but with everything outside in nature. Such a cool experience.

It is simple but very nice. It is also good to know that this is a project helping a lot of kids around the property. We are contributing to their community just for staying here. For us, it had the perfect location because it's very near to orpen gate. And everything was very clean. The staff was really helpful and nice. Thank you for everything!

I didn't like that the kitchen has not tiled or cemented.

At first I was not impressed at all but when I am used to it I found it handy is a nice place to be.

Nothing expect the cold water which I understand was something they were not aware of

I loved everything about this accommodations, The staff gave us such princess treatment they even went an extra mile with helping me with a ring that was stuck on my finger . They made our evening extra special together with the other visitors that we found at the accommodation

In the kitchen there were full of insects which flied everywhere. In a moment we had our hair full of them. The dog are a little agressif but it is Okey. We were a little afraid but nothing happened.

The staff is friendly and always with a smile. A real ecovillage.

Other towns are so far apart.

Close to Kruger National Park.

The tents heated up quite a bit during the day and only really cooled off late at night, getting hot again by morning. The fan was nice to cool off, but the heat made it difficult to fall and stay asleep. The wifi is only in the lounge and bar area, so it doesn't reach any of the sleeping areas.

The location cannot be beat right next to Kruger Park. The free breakfast includes toast and spreads, yogurt, various grains and cereals, milk, juice, coffee, and tea - there was plenty to eat and it was very delicious. The kitchen was decently well equipped, and the lounge area was nice to hang out in. The tents were toasty, but bearable during the late night hours with the fan going. We were only supposed to stay one night but enjoyed our time there so much that we stayed two, and they were very accommodating to allow us to stay in our tent even though someone else had booked it the second night. We were even lucky enough to be there when they were putting on a traditional dance, which was a really fun and entertaining experience!! All in all a great place to stay, and the pool is fun to lounge by and cool off in too!

Very delicious and cheap Dinner. The self-service breakfast is very nice for an early start to Kruger. :)

The fact that you have to be in a certain area to be connected to the WI-FI.

The location is good and everyone has sense of humor from the staff to the guests. She tried all in her power to organize a transport for me, it was my first time in the province and I felt welcomed.

Stayed in August 2022

Not much really :)

We stayed for two nights and we were so pleased by the comfort of the tent! We like the place's philosophy as well being eco friendly and doing so much for the bigger picture! We will definitely be back! Thanks again for everything.

There wasn't much to complain about apart from the one day we didn't have electricity for a few hours and it was not load shedding. Either then that our Stay there was very lovely.

We enjoyed the food and our tent was very clean and comfortable. The bathrooms were always clean. Thank you for the lovely experience.
