We liked the bed, it was large. The room was spacious and the bathroom as well. Also the breakfast is really good.

Happy Jackal is very conveniently located 2 minutes from Addo Elephant Park. We were very nicely welcomed and had a wonderful room. They arranged a very pleasant promenade on a boat on the river including a walk on the dunes with a beautiful sunset and a hearty picinic, as well as a great safari in Addo with a nice and knowledgable ranger - besides the elephants … etc, we managed to witness a couple of lions hunting. We really very much enjoyed our stay.

We had an absolutely incredible stay at Happy Jackal! Suzette was an exceptional host—warm, welcoming, and full of great tips that really enhanced our visit. She was also wonderfully flexible, which made everything even more enjoyable. Our house was perfectly equipped, spotlessly clean, and very cozy. The cleaning team did an outstanding job, and everything we needed—like fresh towels—was thoughtfully provided. The location is the cherry on top: Addo South Gate is just a four-minute drive away! We’re already looking forward to our next visit. :)

Happy Jackal was very convenient for visiting Addo Elephant Park. The location was very quiet and was near the river. The pool looked beautiful although we didn't actually use it. But we did use the barbecue facilities which were very good. The room was comfortable and breakfast was available to booked if needed.
