Situated at the base of the wild Tsitsikamma Mountains, The Fernery overlooks an impressive 30-metre waterfall in the Sanddrift River gorge. The deck area boasts a cocktail bar and free WiFi is available throughout.

The spacious rooms and suites are individually decorated and filled with light. Some rooms have fireplaces and offer scenic views. The elegant bathrooms have floor heating and heated towel rails. From the moment you enter the property, you know you're in for a special treat! Upon entering reception, we were warmly greeted and efficiently checked in. After that, we had a personal tour around the property and then were shown our wonderful chalet. The deck is large and has a fabulous view of the canyon forest. The bed is comfortable. The bathing area is AMAZING. The restaurant staff is excellent, friendly, and knowledgeable about the menu and the area. The food is great! We already have it in mind for our next visit to the Storms River area!

Located 200 metres from Owl House Museum, Furrows Lodge offers an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace and free WiFi.

All units come with a patio with garden views, a kitchenette with a fridge and a microwave, and a private bathroom with shower. A toaster and kettle are also provided. We stayed at the Die Waenhuis cottage in the middle of the village. Inside is original, artistic and extremely well appointed. Lovely, lush veranda and garden. We could use the splash pool at the Furrows. Althea and Aubrie were great hosts. We will definitely come again.

Offering mountain views, Harmony Luxury Tents & Safari in Addo offers accommodation, a garden, a terrace and a bar. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium is 45 km from Harmony Luxury Tents & Safari, while Port Elizabeth Golf Club is 48 km away. Chief Dawid Stuurman International Airport is 55 km from the property, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. One of the Highlights of our Trip. The two hosts made us feel like old family members from far away from the first moment on. The tents are wonderful and sitting on the terrace watching the wild giraffes and other wildlife was hands down under the top 5 travel experiences we experienced in our lifes. I highly recommend going there also with children and to show them the wildlife of SA with a huge variety of animals. The Braai in the evening is another highlight featuring the best products like organic butter or meat. Do yourself a favor and don’t rush it. We stayed for 4 nights and could easily have stayed longer as you really experience the pleasure of a spot where time stands still. Thank you for having us. We will for sure come back ❤️

Situated in the Amakhala Game Reserve, Leeuwenbosch Shearers Lodge offers country-style accommodation and boasts an outdoor pool and terrace. Free WiFi is offered and free private parking is available on site.

Guests are able to arrange a late morning Day Safari directly with the property at an additional charge. Leeuwenbosch Shearers Lodge features extensive gardens with a chapel. The whole team were amazing and it felt like one big family- nothing was too much!! The rangers were very knowledgeable, and communicated expertly with one another to ensure you had the best chance of sightings. The reserve has grown significantly since my last visit 14years ago and remains as beautiful as I remembered. The rooms were super comfy, with huge beds and modernised bathrooms. The pool area was lovely, overlooking the reserve with frequent wildlife visitors, making for a great refreshing dip between game drives. The food was delicious! We couldn’t fault it and can’t wait to come back.

Located in Addo, Charihandra Game Lodge features free WiFi throughout, air conditioning and private parking is available on-site. Guests can enjoy swimming at the outdoor pool.

Port Elizabeth is 35 km from Charihandra Game Lodge, whereas Addo is 19.4 km away. Chrihandra has suffered damage from the strong winds and relocated me to a partner property. They were extremely attentive and covered my expenses in the other place which was equally good and equipped! I look forward to stay at Charihandra in the future!
