Ons het soos altyd ons verblyf verskriklik baie geniet saam met Nardus en sy vriendelik en behulpsame personeel.

Nardus is 'n fantastiese gasheer. Hy meng met al sy gaste en kan oor enige onderwerp lekker gesels. Ons was heel verras met die restaurant se spyskaart. Groot verskeidenheid om van te kies met billike pryse en die disse proe fantasties. Ek het my verstom met die lekker pasteie wat hulle self bak. Die bakster van Camelon gee Nanaga met hul pasteie groot kompetisie. Camelon se restaurant maak ook lekker pizza en Nardus het selfs 'n pizza winkel in die hoofstraat wat die lekkerste pizza maak. Baie dankie Camelon en al die personeel vir die baie lekker kuier.

As always, we really enjoyed our stay with Nardus and his friendly and helpful staff.

Nardus is a fantastic host. He mingles with all his guests and can chat about any topic. We were quite surprised with the restaurant's menu. Great variety to choose from with reasonable prices and the dishes taste fantastic. I was amazed with the delicious pies they bake themselves. The baker from Camelon gives Nanaga great competition with their pies. Camelon's restaurant also makes delicious pizza and Nardus even has a pizza shop on the main street that makes the best pizza. Many thanks Camelon and all the staff for the very nice visit.

Disappointing.

Sorry to give negative criticism, but the photos are very misleading. The pool is green. The mattress on the single bed offers no support and the bedding is old and furry. The fridge was dirty. On arrival we were not expected and our reservation was looking for. Staff very friendly. Breakfast was delicious.

Netjies en skoon.

Chameleon is gunstig geleë, naby die Addo-olifantpark en ander besoekpunte. Nardus het baie moeite gedoen om na ons gerief om te sien en die ontbyt was elke oggend uit die boonste rakke. Baie dankie!

Chameleon is conveniently located near the Addo Elephant Park and other points of interest. Nardus put a lot of effort into taking care of our comfort and the breakfast was from the top shelves every morning. Thank you very much!

A pleasant place to stay for what we needed, which was accommodation close to the Addo Kabouga gate.

Friendly and accommodating staff and owner. Not 4 star, however it was clean and neat, and provided all we needed: microwave, fridge and kettle, and very comfortable beds. The load shedding was a challenge, with the generator being right next to our bed, but it didn't start before 8 am or go beyond 9:30 pm. We will go to Chameleon again.

Ons is hartlik ontvang en die ruim akkommodasie met al die toerusting het ons verblyf heerlik gemaak. Met ons vertrek, is ons meegedeel dat die verblyf restoureer gaan word wat dit nog meer aantreklik sal maak!

Dit was soos paradys vir ons met die vriendelikste ontvangs deur Nardus en sy personeel asook die ander gaste met gerieflike toegeruste skoon kamers.

Dit was soos paradys gewees. Ons was met aankoms deur 'n baie vriendelike Nardus en personeel ontvang. Nardus het ons ingelig oor die nodige en al ons normale kuier vrae beantwoord en ons sy kontak nommer gegee indien ons enige nood ens sou benodig. Die perseel is goed omhein en ons is 'n afstandbeheer gegee vir die hek indien ons wou uitgaan. Daar is veiligheidsligte om perseel se sekuriteit was tops. Dit was vir ons opmerklik die goeie verhouding tussen Nardus en sy personeel asook tussen gaste en Nardus. Ons kan net sê wow. Na ons ons bagasie in ons kamer gelos het, het ons lekker gaan ontspan in die kroeg met ander gaste en Nardus wat met almal saam gesels en geskerts het. Ons het die heerlikste ontbyt geniet voor ons vertrek huistoe en dit was met 'n baie seer hart gewees, want ons het so tuis gevoel. Ons beplan om gou weer te kuier saam met Cameleon.

It was like paradise for us with the kindest welcome by Nardus and his staff as well as the other guests with comfortably equipped clean rooms.

It had been like paradise. We were received on arrival by a very friendly Nardus and staff. Nardus informed us about the necessary and answered all our normal visiting questions and gave us his contact number in case we needed any emergency etc. The site is well fenced and we were given a remote control for the gate if we wanted to go out. There are security lights around the premises for top security. It was noteworthy for us the good relationship between Nardus and his staff as well as between guests and Nardus. We can only say wow. After leaving our luggage in our room, we went to relax in the bar with other guests and Nardus who chatted and joked with everyone. We enjoyed the most delicious breakfast before leaving for home and it was with a very aching heart, because we felt so at home. We plan to visit Cameleon again soon.

Disappointing.

Unlike all other LekkeSlaap accommodation so far, we got the impression that the establishment was not really prepared for our arrival. Efforts were then made to finally give us and our overseas guests a possible choice of rooms, but they were generally not of good quality. The host is very friendly. The breakfast is basic, but tasty. The entrance gate was damaged and we had to close the gate with our remote control more than once in the evening so that unwanted elements could not possibly sneak in.

Na 'n dag se reis was die oornag-fasiliteite 'n heerlike lafenis.

Kamer was skoon en netjies. Dankie tog vir die lugversorger. Swembad was egter nie skoon nie en onbruikbaar wat baie jammer was, want ons het tydens die warmste week in Februarie deur die gebied gereis.

Ons was nie tevrede nie en is vroeër weg as wat ons beplan het.

Ons was nie tevrede met die netheid van die kompleks nie. Die kussings was vuil. Die mure was vuil en ons kon nie swem nie omdat die swembad nie skoongemaak was nie. Die kos was nie eetbaar nie. Die plek sal opgegradeer moet word om 'n 3-ster instansie te wees.
