Charming country escape
Being out in the South African countryside was never going to be a 5 star experience but Addo African Home had its charms. Great people with excellent service, beautiful grounds. The rooms were decent but could have been cleaner and more updated. They provide water and tea daily for free. The restaurant is really good with fresh and super affordable options. The organic pool is basically a pond. We had a nice stay here.

This place is amazing. The staff are very welcoming and helpful. The restaurant has great food. We had a wonderful full day tour of Addo with Alan. He went out of his way to show us animals and was very knowledgeable. We stayed in the lodge and I had a very nice room and use of kitchen. I would definitely recommend this place and would love to come back someday.

Unser absoluter Liebling als Unterkunft
Traumhafte, weitläufige, artenreiche Anlage, schick und orginell eingerichtet mit einem entspannten, fairen Ambiente und das Essen im Molololo war extremst lecker (Französischer Koch betreibt dort eine Kochschule). Von den sechs Unterkünften, die wir in SA hatten und trotz durchweg guter Erfahrungen und somit toller Konkurrenz, zweifelsohne die Nummer eins auf unser Hitliste! Jederzeit wieder mit unseren Kids! Toller Ausgangspunkt für den Addo NP (gleich um die Ecke) und den angebotenen Picknick-Korb zum Mitnehmen dorthin, können wir auch empfehlen.
