Just nice to be in nature.
Addo is always a winner for us. We live in Port Elizabeth, so it's nice and close. Our stay was very nice and we can't complain about anything. The tent etc. is pretty clean. We think it's just time for a bathroom upgrade please. Bathrooms are very old. Can get Noah and his ark there. Saw many beautiful and beautiful animals. Addo we will see again.

Incredible nature.
Ablution was better than Camdeboo, but can still improve. Some of the employees could learn something about customer service, but others were very friendly. We enjoyed the time there and the park is beautiful.

Precious memories built with grandchildren.
We really enjoyed our overnight stay with our two granddaughters. The log cabin was tidy with everything needed. The braai area was nicely sheltered and private.

Find out where the elephants are before you go through the gates.
The stairs were broken, very dangerous. Shower was clogged. Grill could not stay on top, adjustment screw broken. Half of staff super friendly, other half grumpy and aloof.

Nice, but camp lacks attention.
Very nice area and nice camp, everything clean but the camp needs attention, for the amount of people they can renovate facilities.

Beautiful surroundings.
It is a special park and always fun to be there. The environment is beautiful and peaceful, even the animals seem calm. Forest Cabins are clean and met our needs and the staff are very friendly. Photo opportunities galore! We will definitely visit again.

Pleasant time spent at the Park.
Friendly and helpful staff. However, we carried linen and duvets for two single beds with us during our entire holiday, as it was indicated that we should bring our own linen, which was unnecessary at the time.

Game park is nice, accommodation is bad. Bathroom full of flies.
The accommodation, Forest Cabin 6, was full of flies. So bad that we couldn't even drink coffee there. By the time you take out the 1st fly there are 2 new ones in your coffee. We think it's sewer flies, caused by poor maintenance of the bathroom/shower. We complained about it to the customer service of the park. The wildlife park, Addo Elephant Park, was wonderful. Saw lots of elephants, and zebras, buffaloes, warthogs and rhinos.

Beautiful surroundings and the elephants did not disappoint.
The visit in Addo did not disappoint. The field is currently incredibly beautiful green with unexpected flower splendor in certain parts. However, the maintenance leaves much to be desired. The porch light of the Houthut (HF4) didn't work and so we couldn't have a barbecue the first night, because it was pitch dark at the barbecue drum under the porch. The wooden steps were also pitch dark and therefore unsafe in the evening. We tried all the numbers that appeared in the cabin but got no answer. An SMS message to the manager also did not go through. The next day we reported it to reception early in the morning and followed up 3 times the same day without any response except to be assured by reception that they had passed it on to the right person. That night we did have a barbecue, but had to use 2 headlamps. The day after we reported it to reception again and followed up 2 times without any response. When we left at 6 o'clock the next morning, we had to unpack the fridge on the porch in the dark and also walk down 4 very worn wooden steps in the dark with all our luggage. The general maintenance in the cabin is also not up to standard and it's really a shame that visitors are exposed to such poor service.

Great time, clean and nice to stay in Addo
Nice game runs especially to the south at Hapoor and Ngulube. Try entering the South gate instead - you need a 2 hour leisurely drive to the main camp, but much better than the outside road to the main gate. Cottages are neat and very comfortable - fully furnished.

Great facilities, neat and clean accommodation!
Advance communication and follow-up through the website to confirm the arrangements is appreciated. Facilities at Addo chalets are really clean and tidy. Would highly recommend. Although well intentioned, the room freshener spray affected me badly (allergic to perfume). But, my mistake, didn't report it beforehand. Just a pity the only restaurant at Addo is not recommendable, give them 3/10.

We are very professionally received. Staff are very friendly and helpful. We saw all the animals in about 2 hours. There is so much you can view. The forest cabin was clean. Maybe they could just give a little more attention to the bathroom. We felt safe at all times.

Accommodation is very expensive, little value for money.
Poor customer service: Struggled to get booking on system, no after hours help available, given wrong key for cottage, and had to struggle after hours to find real house. Park facilities have deteriorated, rooms not equipped as desired for the price paid for accommodation. Parkways need a scratch!
