Traveller reviews

“Fantastic location and friendly staff, perfect base for Addo”
21 Apr 2025
Great location, so close to Addo park with beautiful views of the Sundays river from our room. The host Suzette was so helpful and friendly and booked all our activities for us. Our guide for our full day game drive, Gabriel, was so lovely, very passionate about all the animals and full of fun facts. The sunset boat cruise was amazing, especially getting the chance to walk on the dunes.

“Very enjoyable.”
07 Apr 2025
We really liked the size of the rooms and the swimming pool. It was right at the entrance to the national park.

“Exceptional👌”
06 Feb 2025
Very friendly staff. Exceptional breakfast. The establishment even surprised us with champagne in our room after they found out it’s our anniversary with no additional charges.

“Incredible stay! Amazing host! 10/10 recommend!!”
08 Jan 2025
The happy jackal is an incredible lodge! Suzette who works there was unbelievably helpful in booking activities for our group of 25. All the activities were amazing! The lodge is so lovely and the food was great! We will definitely come back!
