Slaap was lekker maar die res nie aanbeveelbaar nie.

Die akkommodasie was baie goed en ideaal vir oorslaap. Ek het wel 'n klagte dat hulle nooit ons kamer skoongemaak het nie. Toe ek die volgende oggend een van die skoonmakers gevra het, het sy gesê hulle het nie 'n ekstra sleutel vir ons rondawel nie en ons het nie ons sleutel gaan inlewer sodat hulle hom kon gebruik nie. Intussen was daar 2 oop rondawels waarheen hulle ons kon skuif. Ons het een van die handdoeke buite gehang en nie weer een vir die volgende oggend gekry nie. So, die ervaring was nie baie lekker nie. Die stortkop spuit ook in alle rigtings behalwe onder toe. Die vloere is sopnat.

Sleep was nice but the rest not recommendable.

The accommodation was very good and ideal for an overnight stay. I do have one complaint that they never cleaned our room. When I asked one of the cleaners the next morning, she said they didn't have a spare key for our rondavel and we hadn't turned in our key so they could use it. In the meantime, there were 2 open roundabouts where they could move us. We hung one of the towels outside and didn't get one again the next morning. So, the experience was not very nice. The shower head also sprays in all directions except downwards. The floors are soaking wet.

Dear Eddie,
Thank you for your review and for staying with us at our Green Escape! We are indeed sorry for the service of your room not being done but as you may remember upon arrival, I had mentioned that the key had just broken in the door. We do have a spare to which we had then given to you for your use. Being a Friday afternoon, it was impossible to get a new key for the housekeepers to have. You had left early the next morning and arrived late at night hence we could not get into your room for a service. If you had reported the shower to us, we would have certainly attended to it immediately. Once again, thank you for staying with us.

Best wishes,
Candice

Mors van geld. Nie geskik vir gestremdes nie. Swak geleë op 'n besige roete.

Nieteenstaande 'n boodskap op die julle toep aan die instansie dat my vrou gedeeltelik gestremd is en baie moeilik beweeg, is die boodskap net geïgnoreer. Met ons aankoms by die plek in die donker, moes ons vasstel dat die rondaweltjie 'n hele ent se stap behels op ongelyke oppervlakte. Die rondaweltjie het ook 'n trap wat hoog is gehad wat toegang vir my vrou baie moeilik gemaak het. Die rondaweltjie is vrek klein, seker aanvaarbaar vir die prys. Geen mikrogolfoond of TV nie. Die vloer is slegs geverf met emalje-verf en die bedrakkies/kassies bestaan uit 'n houtstomp met 'n stuk gebuigde blik. Die plek is ook geleë op 'n besig toegangsroete na 'n nabye township met werkers wat van vroegoggend (05:30) met groot luidrugtige busse vervoer word en tot laat saans (22:00). Dit voel of jy binne in 'n snelweg slaap. Daar is swak paaie in die ongewing wat toegang in die donker gevaarlik maak. Spandeer jou R1400 elders. Hierdie is 'n mors van geld.

Waste of money. Not suitable for the disabled. Poorly located on a busy route.

Despite a message you sent to the institution that my wife is partially disabled and has great difficulty moving, the message was simply ignored. Arriving at the place in the dark, we had to determine that the roundabout involved a long walk on uneven ground. The roundabout also had a step that was high which made access very difficult for my wife. The rondaveltjie is damn small, probably acceptable for the price. No microwave or TV. The floor is only painted with enamel paint and the bed racks/cabinets consist of a wooden log with a piece of bent tin. The place is also located on a busy access route to a nearby township with workers being transported by large noisy buses from early morning (05:30) until late at night (22:00). It feels like you are sleeping inside a freeway. There are poor roads in the area which make access in the dark dangerous. Spend your R1400 elsewhere. This is a waste of money.

My kleinseun wou vreeslik graag gaan kamp. Dit die rede vir ons besoek.

Met ons aankoms is ons baie vriendelik ontvang. Ons is na ons kamer vergesel, en vir ons die perseel gaan wys. Ek het aangevra vir braai, braai plus mandjie vol braai-benodighede is tot by ons eenheid gebring. Baie lekker geswem, geslaap en heerlikste ontbyt gehad.

My grandson really wanted to go camping. This is the reason for our visit.

Upon our arrival we were received very kindly. We were escorted to our room, and shown around the premises. I requested for barbecue, barbecue plus basket full of barbecue supplies was brought to our unit. We swam very well, slept and had the most delicious breakfast.

Pragtige rondawel wegbreek.

Ons het 'n heerlike kuier by Addo African Home gehad. Al wat ek sou verbeter is die hang plek vir handdoeke, ons was 'n gesin van vier, maar daar's net hangplek vir 1 handdoek. Die restaurant is redelik hoog geprys vir 'n gesinsete, maar die kos was heerlik.

Beautiful rondavel getaway.

We had a lovely visit at Addo African Home. All I would improve is the hanging space for towels, we were a family of four, but there is only hanging space for 1 towel. The restaurant is priced quite high for a family meal, but the food was delicious.

Baie lekker gebly.

Hierdie mense het uit hul pad gegaan om ons verblyf so lekker en gerieflik as moontlik te maak. Ons wou braai een aand. Hulle het aan ons 'n braaier, rooster en hout verskaf. Selfs vir ons kom dek langs ons rondawel. Vriendelikste personeel. Ons het een aand by hulle restaurant gaan eet. Kos was puik.

Dit was heerlik om twee nagte daar deur te bring.

Die bestuurder/eienaar mnr. Klaassen was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Geen probleme met die verblyf nie, maar die plek was verder van Addo-park as wat ons verwag het en ons sou graag nader aan die rondawel wou parkeer. Maar in sy geheel gesien, was dit lekke slaap.

This review is being shown in its original language.

It was lovely to spend two nights there.

The manager/owner Mr. Klaassen was very friendly and helpful. No problems with the accommodation, but the place was further from Addo park than we expected and we would have liked to park closer to the rondavel. But on the whole, it was a good night's sleep.

Just short of amazing!

Customer service is so rare these days. But then you go and stay at the Addo African Home, Restaurant and Safari and your faith in the service industry is restored. I felt looked after. The confirmation call on my day of arrival to the service I received as we leaving, assisting me bookings to my destination. The dinner at the restaurant was great and on par with the 5 restaurants I had been to in Cape Town and Johannesburg. Again the service was nothing but top class. I will definitely return and highly recommend to any traveling to Addo.

When we arrived shortly before midnight on the 31 December 2020 we were tired and hungry. The midnight snack they prepared for us was the most delicious a new year gift that we will never forget. The room is immaculately clean. The outdoors are an epitome of the true African character. Staff is equally friendly and all of them radiate unquestionable customer care.

Very friendly hosts, beautiful rondawels and gardens with a lovely natural pool. We had a good stay. Pitty it is situated so close to the township, music and noise through the night. Vegetable garden is so pretty laid out but neglected. Some TLC needed in the gardens. Otherwise very upmarket and enjoyable. Lovely restaurant with freshly made well presented food.

Die kos was baie duur in die restaurant, en nie baie opsies om van te kies nie! Groente was onsmaaklik! Net na 6 uur op ’n Sondagoggend sny hulle takke met ’n kettingsaag! En ons het een oggend glad nie water gehad om te stort nie, net na die krag afgegaan het!

A convenient spot from which to visit the Elephant Park.

We weren't quite sure what to expect from Addo African Home (formerly Die Aardvark). We were pleasantly surprised. We had an en suite room in what is called The House.(There are also rondawels and glamping tents.) It was clean and comfortable with good storage space. There is also a comfortable communal lounge and well-equipped kitchen and one has one's own bar fridge - a thoughtful touch. The staff generally were friendly and helpful, especially the breakfast room, security and maintenance staff. Be warned: the restaurant is (in our opinion) over-priced for nouvelle cuisine portions!.

Fabulous to sleep in a well equipped tent with basic modern equipment and comforts!

A good stay and good service and the safari was very well organised to see a lot of game especially the elephants at close range! Game rangers where excellent. The lunch time braai was very tasty, only needed a few snacks while waiting for meat to cook, but most enjoyable food and drinks a plenty on a hot day!

Good value for Monet on Addo's doorstep.

We enjoyed the very spacious tent and private family bathroom. The kitchen facility was spacious with everything we needed. Children enjoyed the natural swimming pool a lot. Pity about the road noise in the early morning, but otherwise great stay.

Wonderlik, baie lekker!

Ons het in 'n tent geslaap, lekker groot en gerieflik. Die kombuis en badkamer is 'n paar tree van die tent, goed toegerus en netjies. Personeel is vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Ons enigste probleem was die geraas van voertuie vroegoggend.

We slept in a tent, it's spacious and convenient. The kitchen and bathroom are a few steps from the tent and they're well and neatly equipped. Staff are friendly and helpful. Our only problem was the traffic noise early in the morning.

Leuke ervaring om in rondavel of tent te slapen, natuurzwembad heerlijk.

Kids vonden dit zwembad het fijnste van onze vakantie, groot, wel kikkervisjes, maar heerlijke temperatuur. Soort smurfendorpje met ronde huisjes, leuke ervaring. Had locatie nog wel iets tropischer verwacht meer in bush ofzo maar dat is niet. Minibar aanwezig. Helaas tot 2 keer toe ochtends geen water om te douchen, douche zag er wel heel leuk uit. Oudejaarsdiner viel tegen maar dat is mss persoonlijk. Lopen aantal studenten rond, willen wel maar. Kunnen/zijn het niet zeg maar. Snappen het nog niet helemaal.

Nice experience to sleep in rondavel or tent, natural pool wonderful.

Kids found this swimming pool to be the best of our holiday, big, yes tadpoles, but lovely temperature. Sort of a smurf town with round houses, nice experience. I expected the location to be something more tropical, more in the bush or something, but that's not the case. Minibar available. Unfortunately, no water for showering until 2 times in the morning, shower did look very nice. New Year's dinner was disappointing, but that's personal. A number of students walk around if they want to. Kunnen/zijn didn't say but. Snappen hasn't quite got it yet.

Addo African Home, Restaurant and Safari 's response

Liewe Charles,

Dankie vir die resensie. Ons is bly om te hoor dat u die verblyf geniet het, ons kon sien dat u kinders die swembad terdeë geniet het. Omdat dit 'n natuurlike swembad is, sal daar natuurlik klein paddatjies wees omdat hulle deel uitmaak van die natuur, maar ons verwyder hulle sodra ons hulle sien.

Ons restaurant is ook 'n kookskool, so ons het studente van Kaapstad wat opleiding ontvang van ons Franse Sjef. Partykeer lyk dit as of hulle op en af loop maar hulle moet ook observeer. Ek is jammer as u nie heeltemal verstaan het nie, volgende keer as u kom besoek sal ek met graagte aan u alles omtrent Addo African Home en die restaurant verduidelik sodat u dit kan geniet wat ons hier aanbied.

Ons hoop om u weer in die toekoms te kan akkommoddeer.

Vriendelike groete,
Addo African Home Span

Het ons stoutste verwagtinge oortref.

Positiewe ervaring: Die persoonlike aandag van die dame wat die bestuur doen by Addo African Home (as ek reg onthou is sy al 10 tot 15 jaar daar) was topklas. Sy het gereël vir 'n braai buite die rondawel waar ons gebly het met 'n tafel en twee stoele (ons het eers voor 9 Saterdag aan daar aangekom na die rugby in PE). Die ontbyt die volgende oggend was baie smaaklik en baie goed voorgesit. Negatiewe ervaring: Stortwater wat ruik na rioolwater. Het in die begin gesukkel om met iemand by die Addo African Home (AAH) te gesels om spesifieke reëlings te tref. Die kontaknommer vir AAH is vir mense wat in Kaapstad sit en nog nooit by AAH was nie en dit maak dit moeilik om reëlings te tref met die personeel by AAH met jou spesifieke persoonlike vereistes.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Exceeded our wildest expectations.

Positive experience: The personal attention of the lady who does the management at Addo African Home (if I remember correctly she has been there for 10 to 15 years) was top class. She arranged for a braai outside the rondavel where we stayed with a table and two chairs (we only got there before 9 on Saturday after the rugby in PE). The breakfast the next morning was very tasty and very well presented. Negative experience: Shower water that smells like sewage. Had trouble in the beginning talking to someone at the Addo African Home (AAH) to make specific arrangements. The contact number for AAH is for people who live in Cape Town and have never been to AAH and this makes it difficult to make arrangements with the staff at AAH with your specific personal requirements.

Geweldig.

Wij hebben in een rondavel geslapen en dat was een leuke ervaring. Alles was keurig schoon en aanwezig, zelfs voor beide een badjas met slippers. Heerlijk ontbijt op het terras buiten. Het ligt op nog geen 10 minuten rijden van het Addo Elephant National Park.

Veilige en vriendelike omgewing by mense wat omgee.

Ons gesin het in tente geslaap, heerlike ondervinding en skoon en netjies, ten spyte van koue weer, was ontvangs warm en so ook slaapondervinding. Naby aan Addo Olifant Park. Mense is bewus van doendinge in omgewing en ons het gehou van privaat yskas en wasgeriewe ten spyte van "commune" kombuis.

Safe and friendly environment with people who care.

Our family slept in tents, lovely experience and clean and tidy, despite cold weather, welcome was warm and so was sleeping experience. Close to Addo Elephant Park. People are aware of things to do in the area and we liked having a private fridge and washing facilities despite having a "commune" kitchen.

Gemengde gevoelens.

As jy hou van 'n koshuis opset met klein kamers en 'n gesamentlike kombuis, sitkamer en eetkamer, met gaste wat tot laat in die aande kuier en lawaai en die ander wat weer vanaf 5 uur in die oggende begin kosmaak en gesels, dan is die plek vir jou! Dis egter nie vir my nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Mixed feelings.

If you like a hostel setup with small rooms and a shared kitchen, living room and dining room, with guests who hang out and make noise until late at night and the others who start cooking and talking again from 5 o'clock in the morning, then the place for you! It's not for me though.

Te naby aan die erge geraas van die nabygeleë woonbuurt.

Netjiese chalet en ontbyt baie smaaklik. Te naby aan die rumoerige woonbuurt en onveilig. Motors jaag teen hoë spoed verby na woonbuurt.

Beste Koos,

Dankie vir u resensie, dit was aangenaam om u by Addo African Home te verwelkom.

Ons is regtig jammer oor die pad en die geraas maar ongelukkig is dit iets wat ons nie kan verander nie en dit is nie te alle tye so raserig nie. Die veiligheid van ons gaste is een van ons hoofprioriteite. Daarom het ons elke dag sekuriteitswagte op die perseel asook 'n heining om die perseel.

Voel asseblief vry om ons te laat weet of daar iets is wat ons beter kan doen met betrekking tot veiligheid.

Vriendelike groete,
Addo African Home Personeel
