Addo

Good to reach and easy to find on Google Maps. Very warm welcome and helpful information about a very tasty dinner (Kronenhoff). Beautiful setting and very tasty furnishings (except dining room... it kind of doesn't fit the picture). Very tasty breakfast! Quiet location in the middle of nature. Free parking on the hotel grounds. Good Wi-Fi.

Happiness grip

Some nice touches! Coffee with the host who was very helpful with area knowledge and suggestions was also great! 

No glass in the room, only a plastic tooth mug. No milk for the tea and coffee and no one around to ask and no, I'm not asking the host for milk at 6AM when they are obviously still asleep.

Nowhere to hang the towel after use and the toilet roll stands on the floor - no holder...  Really folks, you are 4 star and catering for more upmarket - make the finishing touches!!

The airconditioning just makes a noise - does not chill the room at all - some air blowing but that's it. Same in my travelling companions' room - air con a noise maker and little else.

The pool and garden are beautiful but when a pool is not crystal clear it is the sign of unhealthy or badly managed water...  I've had pools for 35 years and it is not difficult to keep it crystal clear and inviting...  There were also some sort of organism swimming around when we arrived - looked like very small tadpoles...

All round - nice touches but lots of things to do and work needed to make it great! Broken lampshades do not look nice and one of the first things I noticed............

I asked the staff to NOT go into my room to service it as I was leaving some of my camera equipment there, computer and such - they still went in to put milk sachets there - too late and why did you go in after I expressly said not to????

Some nice touches, but...

I stayed five nights in this charming lodge. The room was fantastic, recently refurbished with an outdoor shower and an amazingly comfortable bed. 
Surrounded by the aroma of orange tree blossom and silence I could really relax here. Did day trip to Addo elephant park and Scotia game reserve, great experience, this safari park is totally different to Kruger, but also very interesting.
Got lucky for my visit to the Daniels Cheetah Farm, when the cheetahs were in the mood to be cuddled. Totally awesome experience to be able to see these predators up very close, behaving and purring like a house cat.
Highlight of my stay was the visit to Addo Elephant Back Safari. I was convinced beforehand that I just wanted to interact with the elephants. After talking to the owner and hearing how in fact the elephants were in charge and would only be ridden if they felt like it that day, I took this opportunity and rode an 4m high elephant. Being this close and certainly afterwards when you got the photo opportunities and stood next to this gentle giant, feeding him, realising that you are just a fly next to him, was for me the experience of a lifetime and is a memory I will hold dear for the rest of my life.

Experience of a life time

We stayed at the Lemon3Lodge for two days during the Christmas period. The rooms have been renovated and look amazing. The host is also more then willing to help you with suggestions what to do around the area. Because everything was closed the host also made us a very nice 3 course menu for Christmas. Highly recommend this place.

Very nice stay

Nice place. We stayed for one night, had dinner with the owner Diederik (thanx for the Bobotie). Coincidentally he lived in the same town as we do in the Netherlands. The room was stylishly furnished, the pool fine and the atmosphere relaxed.

Stylish place!!!

It's a small, nice, family-run lodge. The rooms are very spacious with separate shower and toilet, a small terrace with lemon trees. At the pool you can refresh and relax. The dinner is prepared by the chef himself and shared by the guests. Absolutely delicious and entertaining. At each walk a quiz tells the story of when and how the recipe was created. Not only informative, but also utterly delicious. Here you can endure it well and relax.

Small but fine

We spent three wonderful nights, a beautiful new room, an ideal location, close to Addo National Park, the owner is great, incredibly kind, and he advised us to go on a super safari with the best rangers in the park.

It's a great stay.

We got there at 42 degrees and were looking forward to the pool. Unfortunately, we landed in a construction site. It was very noisy there and in front of our room, 10 to 15 people were working with shakerboard, bulldozer, concrete mixing machine... full program. The employee said it was a bit noisy. She wanted to sell us handy trips so that we wouldn't have to spend time there. After consulting with our travel agency, we looked for another accommodation on the site. We couldn't check out because strange signs were all gone at once. We put the keys on the table. Information is definitely not recommended at the time. There was no suggestion of building work anywhere!

Not recommended

We stayed two nights in this lovely lodge. Diederick is an excellent host. He helped us with tips. We visited the cheetah breeding project and have done a sea- and landsafari with Scotia. Also an excellent breakfast. 


Great stay

The guesthouse is located about 40 minutes from the main gate of the Addos and is located in the small town of Kirkwood. The premises and the rooms are very nicely furnished and clean. The owner Diederiek, a Dutchman who also speaks German, is very helpful and has taken the time to explain everything important to us. A small disadvantage: the rooms are quite bright and behind rooms 1 and 2 there is a water treatment or something similar, so every few minutes a pump is here, unfortunately, too. So if you should be noisy, the other rooms are recommended if you choose. Since Kirkwood is very, very small, there is unfortunately not much to choose from here. But this was also a big problem for sure.
