Happy Jackal

Great place. From check-in to checkout our experience was first class. Breakfast was cooked to order and was delicious. The property is very quiet and comes with a private dock on the river. We definitely recommend staying here.

My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights on our honeymoon and we had the most wonderful time! Suzette is such a lovely host and made us feel so special and welcome the entire time we were there. We were served the most wonderful breakfast in a lovely breakfast room overlooking a river which runs through the property. Our breakfast included homemade bread and jams which were to die for. The room was spacious, clean and African themed which really makes you feel like you are in the thick of Africa! Not only that, the guest house is situated less than 2 minutes from the Addo Elephant Park gate so it was the perfect place to stay for us wanting to do a self game drive. We saw a wild giraffe and deer as soon as we left the guest house and turned the corner! Thank you so much to Suzette for hosting us, providing us with so much information on the surrounding area and for just being so accommodating and wonderful. We truly had the most amazing honeymoon experience and we will 100% be back again!

Lovely stay Great management couldn’t be more helpful. The staff are outstanding and very helpful, provide great recommendations. Lovely stay in a beautiful place, watching the birds at the bottom of the garden in the morning was so mindful and relaxing. Added bonus was they do laundry for you and return it immaculate. Great stay felt very safe, breakfast was good too

We were 8 people, 4 couples from Atlantic Canada. We stayed for 2 nights. They were very focused on giving excellent customer service. They really wanted us to have a great visit. 3 couples stayed in a cottage, and the other stayed in a king plus twin guest room. The kitchens in both units were well-equipped. We all enjoyed the full breakfast, with fruit and fruit jams from their garden, fresh baked bread, and eggs cooked as requested. Service was friendly and professional. Manager Suzette and husband Tim were exceptional. Suzette drove to pick up medication for one of our team. She loaned me a conversion plug. A sweet personality - she loves people. Tim dazzled us with a full day tour in Addo Elephant National Park, driving us through vast sections of the park. We were delighted with his commentary, excellent driving, and delightfully charming personality. We had many memorable moments. But we will always remember the 12-member elephant family with 3 babies who walked around our vehicle as dusk approached. It was a humbling and emotional interaction. The light lunch, unrushed pace, and overall experience was world-class. This is a place I would return to anytime.

Amazing establishment. Just been sold and they are busy with renovations, without bothering anyone. We will most definitely go back, as we are also excited with them for the changes. Lovely Manageress, Ranger and staff. Breakfast was absolutely delicious with home baked bread daily. The whole ambience from when you meet management right to when you leave, is just something else! Magnificent! Looking forward to our next stay.

Super nice! The rooms were very clean. Everything was more than fine! Breakfast was the best we had! The owners are super friendly and kind! Definitely recommend this stay! The woman's kindness gave me goosebumps!
