Lots of elephants, kudu, zebra, and a mating pair of lions made for outstanding sightings. ##### John ### 10/10 Excellent #### Yicheng Dec 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Truly, a five star experience that went above and beyond expectations because of Ranger John! He is an expert level two ranger; has deep knowledge of the nature and history of the land is completely unparalleled! There are many times where he was able to see animals that no one else could see because of his 40 years of experience in the bush. On one of the game drives, he smelled a carcass, and we went to explore the carcass and subsequently which led us to who hidden lions that were finished feasting on the carcass! If John had not been in tune with the sights, sounds, smells of the animals in the land, we would not have been able to see these lions!! In addition, John had shared his excellent knowledge history of politics within the region, which was extremely eye-opening! He is a renaissance man. Truly, I wish I could take John with me as a guide all throughout Africa. The food was 7/10, service in the restaurant was 8/10, the rooms itself were 8/10, but ranger John was 100/10 and truly made this an unforgettable experience. ##### Yicheng Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Lars May 20, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Wundervolle Lodge im Addo Nationalpark.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Darlington was our Ranger for the Game Drives, who is very experienced, knowledgeable and very pleasant. During our stay we were lucky to see four of the "Big Five" and enjoyed each Game Drive. The furnishings at the River Bend are in need of some TLC; furniture is worn, the bathroom towels old and areas such as the the library need a good dusting- we found "coffee-table" style books coated in thick dust. It is has a "faded glory" colonial style, which needs updating to make it luxurious. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Nov 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rory Nov 27, 2018 A very tranquil and relaxing stay, with fantastic food, and very informative game drives. ##### Rory Stayed 1 night in Nov 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Tracy Oct 9, 2018 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Lovely family friendly lodge We stayed at River Bend Lodge with another family. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The game drives were amazing and we were lucky to have some good sightings . Our game ranger was extremely knowledgeable and full of fun facts which kept the children entertained. Our room was a little tired and the water pressure wasn't great would be our only complaints .

Excelente quarto com cama super king. Com um jardim muito agradável entre os chalets. Restaurante de excelente qualidade. Funcionários extremamente cordiais. O game drive pela reserva é muito recomendável. Talvez uma única melhoria poderia ser no café da manhã que é um pouco limitado nas opções do buffet, ##### PATRICIA Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Brigitta, Dusseldorf Mar 22, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 5 \* Lodge am Rande des Addo Elephant Parks Sehr gute 5 \* Lodge am Rande des Addo Elephant Parks. Super Chalets, großer Pool, outdoor Abendessen, Sehr gute Menüs, freundliches Personal. 2-Std. Game Drives in den Bergen um die Lodge: nur wenige Tiere, aber überwältigende Landschaft. Besser: Permit durch die Lodge für den Addo Elephant Park, 3-4 Stunden im eigenen Auto durch den Park mit Sicht auf viele Elephanten, Zebras, Kudus. Löwen, Leoparden, Hippos im Regelfall nicht zu sehen, keine Giraffen im Park. Expedia sollte den Hinweis auf die Pflicht-Zusatzkosten vor Ort korrigieren (s.u.) ##### Brigitta ### 10/10 Excellent #### kiritkumar Mar 20, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to enjoy game drives Very friendly staff ##### kiritkumar ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alun Mar 12, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent three days of game watching in comfort Excellent stay in very comfortable lodge with super service, very informed guide, who managed to show us elephants, rhinos, lions, zebras , buffalo, warthogs, various boks and birds and thoroughly recommended. ##### Alun ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 10, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Eine Farm in Afrika Wunderschöne Lodge mit Hauselefanten.Schön eingebettet in die Landschaft Südafrikas.Stimmungsvolles Ambiente zum Essen (sehr gut) auf der Veranda.
