The place was absolutely stunning with an amazing staff. They were here attentive and the location next to Addo elephant park (5min drive not even) makes it a nice place to stay. Highly recommend !

Breathtaking, well-kept property with superb views from the Chalet. We had dinner and breakfast on the property which were also great. Even though we only spent one night there, we got a close sighting of the giraffes 🦒. We only wish we booked an extra night or two as one night is definitely not enough to fully enjoy all that this fantastic place has to offer. The staff were all lovey, friendly and really helpful. We would definitely go back!!

The property is beautiful. The staff was the best that we've ever experienced - the most personalised service that we've received at a hotel / resort. We had booked an experience with their private game reserve drive. Singazi, the chef, went out of his way to arrange Halal meat for us for the delicious "bush dinner" at the end of the Drive. We got to see Giraffes, Lions, Springbucks, Wildebeests, etc. Breakfast was amazing too, with Singazi as the chef! Other staff members including Shireen, Brighton and Luke were very helpful. We checked-in very late at 8.30pm, and Shireen made the checking-in process super smooth and even arranged snacks/dinner for us within minutes of our arrival. The room was fantastic, very modern, and far better than what you would expect in a place like this surrounded by nature. Beds were comfy.

This was definitely the best place I stayed in South Africa. The bed was comfortable, the food was amazing, the stars were incredible and the staff were divine. I arrived with no food and no transport and they bent over backwards to make sure I was thoroughly taken care of the entire time. Highly, highly recommend. Thank you so much!

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! :-)
