This was like a present to myself. Beautiful surrounding with an amazing sunrise and sunset. Almost did not want to get out of the lodge as it is so relaxing and comforting. The food was amazing too.

Housekeeping arrived very late in the day, but we didn't mind. The ladies were very polite

I loved everything about the place. Friendly and polite staff. Clean, luxurious, tranquil and family-friendly. The tents are gorgeous. Everything felt new. The boys enjoyed the the game room( we did too). Lovely breakfast, but the most delicious dinner. Mike the bartender took really good care of us :)

Would have loved to see some animals roaming around. We took a walk to the campsite and still couldn't spot even an impala.

I loved the attention to detail, the outside yet private shower is a nice touch 👌. Ooow almost forgot the food, Chef Nelly cooks really good food.

That the pool ump of the rock pool wasn’t working and wasn’t repaired,so the stagnant water was dirty and the pool unusable,which was disappointing,as we had 32 degrees for the two days of our stay. At the price the lodge charges,I expect everything in working order at all times.

Everything!

Small thing, we enjoyed our dinner there but it would be nice to know the day before what is on the menu. Now we only knew it was gonna be meat. Our kids are picky eaters and didnt enjoy the pork ribs. If we knew in advance, we would look for a solution. Now we payed for something they didnt eat.

Very friendly staff What an outstanding location and view! Beautiful houses Delicious breakfast Exciting game room Nice pool

Beautifully appointed lodges in a wonderful setting. Food and drink sensibly priced and staff really lovely.

The lodge organized game drives in Addo & Schotia. They charged parents & children (below 10) the same price. We thought that was quite over-priced. We should have probably better organized that on our own. On the other side: Everything worked well, we did not have to care for everything.

You are far away - basically from everything! Well, WiFi is there but who would need that anyway while staying at this wonderful property in the middle of nowhere? The Chariandra game drive was the highlight - we were able to feed giraffes right within the area of the lodge. The pool and facilities are lovely, the bar is full of great beers, wines and other drinks. The lodges have enough space, are very clean and cosy. The food is 'home made' by 'Mama' - you cannot choose, but you don't have to anyway. All in all a wonderful experience. Would have stayed another night if we had the time.

Nothing. We loved it all!

1. Location - The location of the lodge is incredible peaceful, being surrounded by the bush. A couple of herds of giraffes live on the reserve, and it's perfectly safe to walk around the reserve to find them. One of the giraffes visited the lodge one night, whilst we had dinner, to drink from the pool. 2. Staff - The staff at Charihandra - Andre, Aidan, the cooks and servers were so lovely and accommodating. Very responsive when we needed anything, even travel advice once we'd left to go to Port Elizabeth. We're incredibly grateful to all of them. 3. Room - Our room was clean, spacious and had provided everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Super comfortable bed. 4. Food - We had breakfast, lunch and dinner at the lodge. Dinner is a three course set menu. All dishes were simple, but very well prepared, a decent portion and flavours were wonderful. Well worth having and great value too!

The road towards the lodge if you drive a regular passenger vehicle (gravel, deep holes in the road for ~ 4 kms). We would recommend the owners to provide a map of the domain, including the location of water holes, since there are no dangerous animals, we really took long hikes, but we only saw very few animals. We had to navigate on Google Earth to ensure we did not get lost -worth while though!

Very quiet location in the middle of nowhere. The giraffe that comes into the domain like a pet is a real asset for everyone. Relaxed atmosphere, dinners on the patio of the main building, self-serve bar. We did a morning game drive (2 hours) which was very educational, excellent driver/guide. We fed the "pet giraffe".

We had a really nice stay there. The lodge was very nice and spacious, breakfast and dinner was delicious (dietary requirements were always taken into account) and the staff was really welcoming and friendly. You can observe various animals on the property (there are even giraffes). It is also not far from the Addo elephant park.

You have to travel to a really bad road until you get to the lodge- be aware of it. Lodges are huge and perfect, just a bit „old“ furniture.

Service was amazing. Can recommend to book a morning drive to feed the giraffes! The reserve and the lodges are beautiful. Dinner and breakfast was also really good.

Great location with well equipped kitchen. Very relaxed atmosphere and delicious food. The game drive was very interesting and we saw a lot of animals including giraffes. It took us around 30 mins to get to the Addo park.

I can't remember anything i didn't like about the hotel.

It's one of the best hotels I've ever been in my life! Everything was perfect: our guest house was big with a lot of space, clean, comfortable bed, a nice swimming pool, and also big territory. Food exceeded all my expectations, the level was like in good restaurant. I also recommend to take a small 2 hour safari on the territory of the hotel. It was amazing. We fed the giraffe! There is an entertaining room with lots of books and billiards.
