Set in Colchester, 1 km from the south entrance of Addo National Park, ParkView Safari Lodge offers free WiFi, and guests can enjoy a garden, a bar and a shared lounge.

Some of the units feature a satellite TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a private bathroom with a bath and a a hairdryer.

We loved the peaceful nature of the property, with the comforts of modern accommodation. It's located right next to the Addo National Park entrance, which is convenient to access each day but you still have the flexibility to access the shops nearby. The team on-site helped us book a tour last minute which was great. Breakfast is generous and tasted great. No downsides - would easily go back!

    It is very stylish but functional. Lots of thought has gone into the furnishings and room features. The bedroom had a lovely balcony and riverside view. We also loved the local pub, 5 mins down the road that was safe to walk to- Grunters- great value and a very welcoming landlord. And we can highly recommend the river cruise with Beau who did a fantastic dune walk with us.

    Suzette and her staff were nothing but friendly and helpful. The game drive with Gabriel was fun and entertaining and the gate to the Park was literally a minute or 2 away. The big powerful Fan in the room was our best friend. Breakfast was lovely with a fresh loaf of bread everyday. Maybe bovril or something other than 1 type of jam would be great but otherwise no complaints.

    I stayed here with my family (two children aged 3 and five and my wife) for 2 nights and we had everything we need. Wayne is a super nice host who gave us many helpful recommendations and who even prepared us breakfast very early so that we could go for our game drive in Addo National Park. Breakfast is very good, accomodation is also located very good if you want to visit the Addo National Park or go to the Sand Dunes. Room like the whole house is very clean. So really nothing to complain about.
