Olifants Rest Camp mooi en rustig kamp en helemaal top als je op de rivier kijkt.

We hebben het daar altijd naar onze zin maar die plek (lodge ) die jullie v ons geboekt hebben was meer dan top. Dus bij deze geweldig.

Olifants Rest Camp nice and quiet camp and absolutely top if you look at the river.

We have always been there to our heart's content, but the place (lodge) you booked us was more than top notch. So this is great.

Bevredigend.

Was lekker, sal net aandag moet gee aan brandtoerusting, was daar tydens 'n brand. Te min hulpmiddels.

Satisfactory.

Was nice, will just have to pay attention to fire equipment, was there during a fire. Too few tools.

Overall, visit to SANParks Olifants Rest Camp was great, and enjoyed a much needed break.

We were booked in unit 101, but upon arrival, the sewage drain next to the unit was overflowing and we requested another unit, which was provided. The unit is a bit run down and the heat exchangers for the hot water on the outside of the units are noisy, with intermittent rattles when the fans go on at night. We were 20 minutes early for check-in but had to wait until 14h00 to receive the keys although the cleaning lady advised us the room was ready.

Very good with sunset drive that I never saw even one of the big five.

My stay was so good and comfortable. Nice warm water with shower. No tap and outside basin if you want to braai next to the house.

Was lekker, restaurant baie goed.

Interior van rondawel baie afgeleef en oud. Geen ketel of koffiestasie. Maar 'n groot yskas op die stoep wat ek nie weet om wat mee te doen nie.

Broken geyser.

The toilet flushers was broken, and the geyser didn't get hot. Complaint was laid, but wasn't fused until we left.

Beautiful views, amazing location, small chalet but cozy.

The view of the river is breathtaking, some elements of the chalets are a bit outdated, but it is clean and cosy, perfect for a couple. Lovely to have a coffee on the stoop with an amazing view in the morning and the sunsets are amazing.

Enjoyable, the Kruger is always a good trip, no real highlights, the units beds were not the most comfortable,.

The only complaints I have is that the shower was extremely low even for an average height person and the kitchen unit had power problems and would trip when trying to use any electrical appliance, even the hydrofoil.

Dit was rustig, aangenaam met skoon geriewe.

Ons het 'n aangename tyd in Olifantskamp geniet. Die geriewe is oud, maar word skoon en netjies gehou. Die diens was goed en die personeel is baie behulpsaam. Die winkel en restaurant bied waarde vir geld met 'n redelike verskeidenheid.

Pragtige kamp

'n Kamp met 'n vreeslike mooi uitsig. Kombuis gerieflik naby chalet en skoon en netjies. Het heerlik hier oornag en ook die nuwe swembad beproef. Moes net die addisionele kampkostes soos vereis vereffen.

Beautiful camp

A camp with a very beautiful view. Kitchen conveniently close to chalet and clean and tidy. Had a lovely stay here and also tried out the new pool. Just had to settle the additional camp charges as required.

We thought we booked self-catering.

The accommodation did not provide any form of cutlery and crockery forcing us to use the restaurant which we found was expensive and the food below average.

Good Day Ewan,

Thank you for your feedback . You had booked the Bungalow BG2 . This unit has no utensils and guests are requested to bring their own. This is on the description on the website.
