We had a few rustic cabins, these were excellent and had everything we needed.
Breakfast was an addition but well worth it.
Enjoyed our stay.

My family and I stayed at Dung Beetle Guest Farm at the start of our holiday from the UK. The location close to Port Elizabeth and Addo Game Reserve was really handy. The farm itself is set in beautiful gardens/countryside and provides a really unique experience a million miles away from everyday life! The team were very friendly and always willing to help including a surprise cleaning of our car on the morning of leaving. Would definitely stay again!

Views and safety great, cleanliness rather disappointing.

Great location close to the Addo Park, nice and well-appointed chalet, excellent service, but unfortunately the ceiling void of our room was infested with bats that prevented us from getting sleep for the two nights that we were there. We raised it with the staff who confirmed that it was a known issue, which raises serious questions.

Nous avons beaucoup apprécié le cadre de l'hébergement, les dîners et les activités proposées.
Tout le personnel était au petits soins.
Nous avons en revanche un peu regretté le côté rustique de l'hébergement Dung Beetle (peu lumineux, pas de vue). Nous aurions dû privilégier la location d'un chalet.
Nous recommandons cet établissement pour un séjour réussi au parc Addo.

As fotos não condizem com a realidade, fazem local parecer muito melhor do que ele é. O ar condicionado não consegue deixar a temperatura agradável, o quarto parece um forno, para piorar chegamos cansados da viagem e tínhamos que sair rápido para um Safari e não tinha água em nosso quarto. Não conseguimos tomar banho e nem lavar o rosto. Nosso quarto fica em uma longa caminhada por uma trilha, e isso não é informado na hora da reserva. A proposta do hotel é legal, sendo algo rústico, porém a manutenção está muito precária. As piscinas são sujas, ninguém entra na água. Falta reparo e pintura por tudo. Infelizmente nos decepcionamos muito.

Wer Ursprünglichkeit mag, ist hier gut aufgehoben. War eine interessante Erfahrung. Allerdings sollte die Beschreibung, wo genau sich Toilette und Dusche befinden, detaillierter sein.

Toller Service und Frühstück.
Unterkunft war eine Höhle ohne WLAN und keine Tür zum Badezimmer. Sonst war alles Top.

Wir haben den Aufenthalt nach einer Nacht in der Bush Cabin abgebrochen, da wir in der Nacht massenhaft Mücken im Zimmer hatten, die uns eine schlaflose Nacht beschert haben. Das Strohdach über dem Außen-WC war viel zu niedrig. Für Streichholz (es war 1 Stück in der Schachtel) und Anzünder wurde Geld verlangt.

Une cabane confortable avec cuisine douche et wc à l'extérieur
Un peu éloignée du parking avec un cheminement chaotique surtout avec des bagages
La piscine est très petite avec une eau douteuse
Le bbc du soir était un régal
On a apprécié notre sejour comme seul au monde face à la nature
