Located on a private concession within the malaria free Addo Elephant National Park, River Bend Lodge offers luxury accommodation, spa facilities and private game drives. Free WiFi is available.

The 5-star, spacious and elegantly decorated suites offer a private patio with views of the surrounding landscapes and animals. All have air conditioning, a ceiling fan, flat-screen TV, coffee machine and a bathroom with separate bath and shower and complimentary toiletries The grounds were really beautiful with cottages surrounding artfully landscaped grounds that were filled with birdsong. The chef was truly excellent and we enjoyed our breakfasts and dinners. Our park ranger, Paul MacKenzie, was outstanding. He knew the wildlife really well and had many tales from his interesting life. Rafa, one of the elephants blessed us with his presence at the gate on the day of our game drive and were fortunate to spend a lot of time with one of the lions. The Park concession was very good because it gave us long views. In contrast, during our solo drive from the bottom of Addo to the top, there was large bush obscuring views. I found the staff at River Bend to be really friendly and enjoyed my many conversations with them, particularly time spent talking to Jenna. I also enjoyed talking to Gladys, who worked in the kitchen. She and I share an interest in sewing with Shweshwe. We highly recommend River Bend. It is truly a 5 star experience.

Offering daily game drives into Addo Elephant National Park, 8 km away, this Colonial-style house has 2 outdoor pools. With free Wi-Fi, its stylish rooms are in thatched cottages in the garden.

Opening onto a private veranda or courtyard, each individually decorated room at Elephant House features a wooden ceiling. All are air conditioned and include a seating area with Persian rug. Beautiful setting. We preferred the rooms in the main building, not the stable cottages. Very quiet and private. You can always find a spot to relax. Very peaceful.

Overlooking a valley, this safari-themed guest house offers 4-star accommodation in the Eastern Cape Province. Relaxation options include a seasonal outdoor pool. Addo Elephant National Park is 63 km away. Higly recommended! We are a family of 4: parents in their fifties and children reaching 30. We spent two nights here and had a great time. It's a family business with an authentic wildlife atmosphere. After arrival in the afternoon the owner took us with 5 other guest for a safari on his own private game reserve. We spotted the giraffes in no time and stood very close. He gave interesting information on wildlife, his land and the giraffes in paticular. Dinner in the lodge, honest and tasteful, one choice. Comfortable, clean and cosy rooms. Real countryside setting. Early breakfast and off to Addo. Should have booked the Addo-safari with the owner Kerneel, but we had a good day by ourselves. Another great dinner and good rest. We left after breakfast with a great experience and will definitely recommend this to friends.
