The Dungbeetle River Lodge was mentioned on many blogs and forums that recommended accommodation for visiting Addo Elephant Park and we quickly understood why: an exceptional place where we would have liked to spend more time. A magnificent view and location along the river (incredible view at breakfast), rooms decorated with great taste, a welcoming and available owner. The plus: the possibility of going on excursions for the activities they offer, in particular game reserves in Addo. We did the tour with Christo, great day and experience.

Superb location close to the Addo elephant park and local shops, beautiful grounds and rooms. Springbok walking past your door all day. The staff are so helpful and knowledgeable and great with the kids. The private game reserve tour with dinner was fantastic. Our guide Richard was super knowledgable, and helpful and went out of his way to make sure we had a great day especially our kids. We had such a wonderful stay.

Such a beautiful idyll - perfectly located for a day at the national park and with a lovely restaurant onsite. The personnel were super welcoming and the room was immaculately clean. I really loved the coffee machine in the lounge to grab a nice coffee to enjoy on the little patio. Pool was a lovely relaxing place to while away some hours. The whole plot was incredibly calm and serene - would highly recommend. PS - note that the ratings outside of WiFi are all 10/10! We had no issues with WiFi while we were there, but equally would not expect perfect WiFi in a rurally located spread out property - seems unfair it brings down the overall ratings!

The property is amazing, really spacious, cleaned everyday to a high standard. It has an amazing outdoor area with a Braai which we enjoyed using. It’s a great base location to visit Addo Elephant park which is an hour away. The lodge is secluded and you feel totally immersed in the beautiful surroundings, we walked in the mornings, saw lots of animals especially at night on the way back to the lodge. Safari’s are also available but we did these in Amakhala so just relaxed in the afternoons. There are a few nice restaurants in the local town if you want to eat out, if not the local spar is good. Thanks so much to Sonya and Frik for making us feel so welcome.

All lodges in Colchester

Looking for a lodge?

Ideal for nature-lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and self-catered. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than holiday homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.

Had an amazing stay at Parkview Safari Lodge. Located close to the southern entrance to Addo the lodge was very peaceful and luxurious, simply superb. Staff were friendly and helpful and would certainly recommend this lodge for anyone looking to stay whilst visiting Addo Elephant Park.

It was a great adventure sleeping in one of the tents right next to Addo Park fence. The staff is super friendly and helpful. We stayed 2 nights during our Safari trip to Addo. The lodge is right next to the Parks south gate.

We loved it all: the safari lodge style, the self-service bar, the room with the waterfall-like outdoor shower (view protected), the very good breakfast, the super tasty dinner - and the sympatic hosts! :-)
