Happy Jackal is conveniently located 2 km from the South Gate to Addo National Park.

We really liked the size of the rooms and the swimming pool. It was right at the entrance to the national park.

Nukakamma Guest House is located in Colchester, just 4 km from the South Entrance to Addo Elephant Park. It offers free BBQ facilities and a shared lounge area.

Host gave us loads of instructions and even live directions of where to find animals at Addo. She also generously allowed us to make our own breakfast with the items on the fridge to make sure we could arrive early at the park gate. The bed was amazing! We saw cheeky vervet monkeys from the viewing deck :)

Situated within 39 km of Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium and 41 km of Port Elizabeth Golf Club in Colchester, River Rooms - Chilled and Relaxed - Colchester - 5km from Elephant Park features accommodation...

Reception (hand-over of keys) at the local restaurant was unfriendly, impersonal. No greeting or "How was your trip?". Manager sat in his office in front of his PC but did not come out. Very unprofessional and disappointing. On the other hand, the room was modern, clean, comfortable.

Set in Port Elizabeth, Addo Mountain View offers a patio with garden and quiet street views, as well as a year-round outdoor pool, hot tub and open-air bath.

The property is in a secure complex, the room was very clean and comfy, with all the amenities you would need. The jacuzzi and fire was also an added bonus and a great end to a day! The hosts were very helpful, it was a very lovely stay we wished we could have stayed longer!

Situated at the mouth of the Swartkops river and just 200 metres from the beach, Le Blue Guesthouse is ideally located in Bluewater Bay.

Cosy room, carefully decorated and neat. Delicious breakfast and Jean Pierre is just the perfect host. A little gem in a very cute, peaceful and safe neighbourhood. Will definitely come back there for future opportunities.

Featuring pool with a view, garden and views of mountain, Suma's Rest is set in Addo, 48 km from Swartkops River. The property has garden views.

We stayed one night at the guest house at Suma's Rest and it was an ideal location to visit Addo elephant park. The accommodation was very clean and comfortable and had everything we needed, and we felt welcome and well looked after.

    Suzette is a wonderful hostess. We had an excellent breakfast both days, and the facilities were exceptional. It is so close to Addo too. I can highly recommend this guest house.

    The villa is beautiful, with a big pool, spacious rooms, a beautiful terrace overlooking the river and a great location very close to Addo's Elefant park. Wayne is a great host, provided us with lots of information and also prepared a delicious breakfast.

    Great location, great apartment great Host, thanks Wayne! 5 min by car directly to the south entrance of the Addo National Park. Our room was even better as expected. The pictures on booking match perfectly. A pity that we only stayed one night. The breakfast is also delicious.
