The breakfast was really good and even included fresh bread.
The room was very quite and clean.
There is an Eco side to it as sink water is used to water the grass.
Excellent location.

We stayed at Dungbeetle River Lodge for 2 nights while visiting Addo. We arrived in the late afternoon and then took a full day game drive from the lodge. It was a bit much for us and would do a morning game drive next time. The experience was awesome, it was just too long for our pensioner bodies! Staying 2 nights was perfect because the evening gave us a nice recovery period before we hit the road for our return to Cape Town. Dungbeetle River Lodge was a perfect location from which to travel into Addo. It's literally 3 minutes from the south gate of the park.

Not a quaint little tourist town, and somewhat disappointed with our stay (for choice of shops, restaurants and ease of access to the river, lack of info for St Croix marine reserve).
The Sand dunes are spectacular, but also not easy to access as on private property. The day visit permit is affordable (via Pearson resort) yet this information is not easily available to visitors.
Close proximity to Addo South Gate which is great.
Some marketing PR would go a long way!

It is a dusty , dirty place a favorite stop-over for long distance lorry drivers
and all that they bring with them. The only :restaurants" which are really only fast food eatery's and not very good a that. the only thing Colchester has got going for it is that is very convenient for the Addo Elephant park,
other than that it is not worth a visit.

As a teenager I basically grew up in Colchester, not the asea as such, but we did a lot of camping over the years with friends and family. The views are just spectacular and if you love fishing it gets even better as it is a fisherman`s paradise.

The proximity to Addo National Park, River Cruises on the Sundays River was excellent. The Taste of Africa Restaurant was a delight with friendly staff and delicious cuisine. Shopping facilities were pleasant.

Its a great place to get away from our busy everyday life.
Its a great place to get away from our busy everyday life. Colchester is the perfect place to just unwind and in its beauty. We didnt do much sightseeing, but most definitely will next we go there again.
The house is in a very secure and quiet area. You feel really safe. We stayed at the 3 bedroom apartment. It was very clean and spacious. The apartment looks much better than in the pictures. The kitchen is very comfortable and has all appliances.
We were able to watch movies on Netflix.
The staff and owner were very kind and helpful (they even did our laundry although it is not supposed to be included).
The house is located 5 minutes drive from the Addo south gate. Best location!!
We highly recommend this house. Thank you for hosting us!
We loved everything about this hotel. The location was ideal, the staff extremely welcoming and the facilities exceeded our expectations. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and comfortable and we especially loved the outside rock shower. We took advantage of the dinner option on both nights and the food was home cooked, plentiful and absolutely delicious. We could not fault anything and would highly recommend this hotel. Thank you Wesley and all your team for giving us such a wonderful and memorable experience.
The property is beautifully outfitted and a fantastic location to Addo Elephant Park. Suzette was very kind and helpful and has created a fantastic retreat on the property. It is very safe with gates, screens and locks. The air conditioning was a nice bonus, although the house didn't seem to get overly warm throughout the day. The swimming pool was lovely and the gardens gave plenty to look at. We had a less mobile person in our group and she was able to easily get around the property and house.
We stayed at the Addo Riverside Villa, Colchester, and never regretted having done so. Wayne, the owner/manager was oozing knowledge about the vicinity. The advice he gave made us feel like we knew the place. The ambience of the Addo Riverside Villa, Colchester, was astounding - built on the bank of the Sundays River with boats galore. The other attraction that will make us go back is the walking trail along the river bank. Wayne`s sense of humour leaves you pondering.
Remarkable value for money. The apartment was large and very well equipped for a self catering stay. Just a very short walk to the Sundays river where there are lovely views of the river and super bird watching (also from the old road bridge nearby). The community of houses here are directly opposite the South gate entrance to Addo Elephant park, and it is an easy drive down to the Sundays river mouth at the sea. The dune field here is truly breathtaking.
My wife and I have stayed in Colchester a few times and Settle Inn certainly rates as one of the best we have visited. We love the proximity to Addo as that was the reason we visited. The safety and quiet are also two outstanding features. The apartment itself is outstanding and there was not a thing we were unhappy with.
Thank you very much

Is was great we felt home right away. The hotel manager was the most nice and hospital person with wonderful recommendations and tips. She took great care of us.
Breakfast was great, location is very convenient towards addo elephant park (South Gate) with shop, restaurant at walking distance. Beds were very good, WiFi was good. I would definitely come back.
Definitely the best place to stay when you want to visit Addo Elephant Park! Our house Wayne was simply amazing, he took a lot of time giving us tips for the park. Beautifully decorated room with lots of amenities. Make sure to arrive early to enjoy the wonderful sunset over the river!
The whole house in itself was very welcoming, the lounge was relaxing, the kitchen was well fitted out with everything we needed, bathrooms and bedrooms were spotless and the extra amenities were just what we needed for everyone to enjoy their stay 👍
Specious room, welcome drink, great terrace with the view over the river, very nice host who helped us with tips and took us to safari drive!! The house looks very nice with all the decorations, small tree house, a pond with koi fish…
The house was spacious, very nice for a big group.
Clean pool, great entertainment, safe for kiddos and a beautiful view.
The staff were great, I was assisted by a gentlemen by the name of Sibo and he provided great service.
Wayne, the house host is an amazing person. His service is above anyones expectations.
Willing to help, give information, etc
The place has an excellent location and is big and comfy
From check in to check out the experience at Addo Adventure House was greatttt.
It was clean, comfortable and facility was well equipped.
I would most definitely book again in future.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on the house boat. A real novelty. Would highly recommend going on the boat trip to go sand boarding on the sand dunes lower down the river.
Byron and his Staff are super friendly,professional and helpful. Our stay was relaxing and peaceful. Breakfast was awesome This will be our "go to" spot in Colchester :-)
The location of the house is great, very close to Addo elephant park and the Sundays river. The kitchen was well equipped and the view to the river really nice
