Addo Bed & Breakfast

Plussat: Camp figtree was one of the most magical places I have ever stayed at. Lizzy picked us up at the airport and was so amazing and helpful throughout our stay. All staff were friendly and eager to assist. Our game drive was excellent! I can’t wait to come back!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Wonderfull place! Great staff, clean, a real retreat!

Plussat: I would give this lodge 5 stars ⭐️ it was brilliant and incredible from the word go. We originally booked one night but because it was so fantastic we booked a 2nd evening. Friendly welcome at reception, magnificent accommodation and facilities, spectacular breakfast, lunch and supper. We were so needing a break away from everything and it was beyond our expectations. A huge thank you to each staff member. Thank you thank you! We will most certainly be back for more.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing that we didn’t like.

Plussat: Professional staff,amazing location, in house dinner great value and delicious and varied choices,informative safari drive to Addo Park. Could rave about this place for ever.

Plussat: We loved the location and staff with an excellent game drive

Miinukset: We thought the food a little heavy for our taste. However the service was excellent. We We’re a little disappointed with our cabin as the shower was a bit dodgy. The swimming pool filter not working and a view of the bins from the loungers

Plussat: On top of the World

Plussat: From start to finish it was an amazing experience staying in the Outpost room. The food was delicious and we ate all 3 courses accompanied by fantastic Stellenbosch wine. Staff were also incredibly friendly

Plussat: Very scenic. Lovely views. Beautiful landscape. Cottage was very comfortable for 4 people.

Miinukset: Supper was very good and tasty but very pricy.

Plussat: Very nice poolarea and proper rooms and a friendly atmosphere. A gluten allergic problem was managed, and a very good breakfast. BB placed 30 km from maingate to Addo Elephant Park.

Plussat: The guest house is nicely located in the middle of nowhere, a 20-30 minutes drive from the Addo. The staff was very friendly. The cottage was huge, nice and cozy, and with pleasant views on the valley. The kids enjoyed the company of all the curious dogs and especially of the 5 puppies.

Miinukset: We were there possibly during the hottest days of the year and we suffered a bit of having the air conditioning only in the bedroom. An air con in the living room/kitchen/main area would be better since it would affect also those sleeping on the upper floor. We wanted to visit their farm/private reserve but it seems possible only with their vehicle and at certain times, which unfortunately did not fit us. Maybe a bit more flexibility would be nicely appreciate by the customers. We were invited to the special dinner running for Valentine’s day and we booked it but we found the food was nothing special. But it was of a reasonable price in any case (and since i am Italian, my standards may be higher than those of others :).

Plussat: Very beautiful area Main room was great Good game viewing in the park

Miinukset: No cooling in upstairs room 30 mins drive from Addo Park No good grocery stores in the area

Plussat: A very cosy family run hotel in a gorgeous setting. Our villa was very big and comfortable, the hotel garden was lovely and the dinner offered by hotel was very nice with fantastic views over a valley with a buffalo herd. The owners and staff were very friendly and helpful. Our kids loved the puppies next to the play ground.

Plussat: We liked everything! The location and especially the friendly staff!

Plussat: The big bed

Miinukset: They don't know the first thing about hospitality. The receptionist tells you strictly the necessary as if she recites a phonebook. The room isn't what you would call hygienic. The breakfast room is infected with bugs that crawl on the ceiling over your table.the breakfast us heavy and big but not good. The sheets were dirty. When we came back at 10 pm from the safari , the gate didn't open. There had been already difficulties with the gate ( we heard afterwards) and it just didn't open. We pushed the bell button to see if someone could open, finally the receptionist got on the phone and when I explained to her what was happening she just hung up. We then opened the motor of the gate and put it on manual. Luckily we have the same system at home so we knew how to solve it. The next day I talked to her about it and instead of an apology she was cross with me that I had woken her up. On top of this they counted R 200 per person more than the actual cost of the safari but again when mentioning this, I got " that's not true, you lie' eyes and excuses upon excuses but never an apology or a commercial gesture. No, honestly, better to pay a few R 100 more and be treated like a guest then to go to this penitentiary facility!
