Elephant House - Addo

Spacious family cottage with a lovely outdoor area.

Staying at Elephant House was a good experience. The lush gardens provided a serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. I loved our large, spacious room with a comfy bed and a lovely terrace. The three pools offered great options for unwinding, although I noticed that one of them appeared a bit murky. Breakfast was delicious, especially the freshly made ciabatta with mushrooms and cheese. It stood out. The breakfast service could use a little speed improvement as it was a bit slow on a couple of occasions. I felt well taken care of by the staff, but my bathroom could have seen better cleanliness with toiletries not being topped up. Those minor issues, I genuinely enjoyed my time and appreciated the charming ambiance.

Its INCREDIBLE, remote location was a plus.

Fashionable and airy rooms with very comfortable lounge area's in beautiful setting, television, for example, genuinely helpful staff...

beautiful gardens, large verandahs, spacious family cottage

The bathroom could use better attention to cleanliness, especially with toiletries not being topped up!!! It would also be beneficial to maintain the pools better, as one appeared somewhat cloudy. More attention to shower safety features would be appreciated!!!

The location turned out to be particularly good and incredible, short walk to the park and the river safari, the garden and the property across the road at Stable Cottages and the large garden area opposite the main building areas. It also was to centre of Addi village.

The staff were attentive. Breakfast was a highlight, with fresh fruits and homemade bread that were divine. The serene grounds and availability of three pools enhanced the relaxation experience beautifully.

No complaints at all.

The large bathroom was great, but who thought it was ok to have no door at all? And breakfast service could woudl ve been faster, but alas it was more of a leisurely affair. I expected a complimentary drink or something, but no, not even a wink from the staff, I just couldn't believe it.

The room was spacious, and I adored the two lovely pools. Plus, a grocery store was just a five-minute drive away-perfect for my snack cravings!

The gravel road nearby threatened noisy trucks, but surprisingly, it didn't ruin my zen moments, just a reminder that Mother Nature has a quirky sense of humor. I also wish they had dinner options. I can only eat so many snacks!

No recreational options available, but really good breakfasts and spacious rooms make it worthwhile.

really good breakfasts, spacious rooms, limited activities

Super spacious family cottage with a lovely outdoor area and a chill swimming pool vibe.

The pool area was relaxing, with plenty of space to unwind. Try to make time for the clever game drive experience they offer.

The stay was super relaxing, especially with the lovely outdoor swimming pool and a serene garden area to unwind in. Just a heads up, the breakfast service could be a tad quicker, but it didn't ruin the great vibe overall. Definitely try the game drive, it's a must for some fun memories! 🐘

Can just recommend for spending night

Charming garden, spacious cottage, with large verandahs that overlook lush greenery, perfect for relaxation with our family's thoroughly equipped kitchenette.

No faults whatsoever

The beautiful grounds and multiple pools were a real highlight. It was so nice to have different areas to relax and unwind. the staff were also excellent, providing great service and checking in regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. the fact that there were different spaces and lounge areas to choose from was a bonus.

The shower in our room could be improved. the water pressure was sometimes weak and the temperature was often too hot, which made it difficult to enjoy a comfortable shower.
