First of all: A great host. Second: A great chef. Third: A great advisor. Obviously, that’s all one guy, Tinnie. We really enjoyed staying at the 57. Location was perfect for getting to the Addo Elephant park in the morning. Room was comfy and well equipped including some sweet frosted muffins. Breakfast was great, but be warned. Tinnie’s rule: Nobody leaves before everything is finished. (Some irony might be included) We also got some great safety advice for travelling to and from the park.

The room was great. Comfortable matress, and the quietest ceiling fan in the world. Breakfast was delicious. Fruit and jams from the garden, and local eggs, plus fresh baked bread. Suzette and Tim were caring and professional. They wantrd the first Canadians to stay there to enjoy ourselves. We did. Canucks, book a visit soon. Tim drove us in his game viewer around Addo. We saw beautiful sites and many animals in their natural setting around the huge park. Our 2-day stay was unforgettable. Very close to a well-stocked SPAR, gas station and popular Taste of Africa restaurant. 5 minute drive away.

Everything! Perfectly located for easy access to Addo Elephant Park. Our room had a spectacular view over the Sunday river - and provided exceptional sunset views. The room was spotlessly clean and provided all the necessary facilities for our stay. Very large - and varied - breakfasts were served. The very friendly owner was most helpful with every aspect of our stay.

    My stay at Adventure Apartment, Colchester was truly wonderful. The space was exceptionally clean, beautifully decorated, and offered a peaceful atmosphere that made it easy to relax and unwind. Every detail from the serene surroundings to the warm and welcoming ambiance, was thoughtfully arranged. It’s the perfect place for anyone looking for comfort, tranquility, and a touch of elegance. I would definitely recommend it and look forward to visiting again

    We stayed at Dungbeetle River Lodge for 2 nights while visiting Addo. We arrived in the late afternoon and then took a full day game drive from the lodge. It was a bit much for us and would do a morning game drive next time. The experience was awesome, it was just too long for our pensioner bodies! Staying 2 nights was perfect because the evening gave us a nice recovery period before we hit the road for our return to Cape Town. Dungbeetle River Lodge was a perfect location from which to travel into Addo. It's literally 3 minutes from the south gate of the park.

    Not a quaint little tourist town, and somewhat disappointed with our stay (for choice of shops, restaurants and ease of access to the river, lack of info for St Croix marine reserve). The Sand dunes are spectacular, but also not easy to access as on private property. The day visit permit is affordable (via Pearson resort) yet this information is not easily available to visitors. Close proximity to Addo South Gate which is great. Some marketing PR would go a long way!

    It is a dusty , dirty place a favorite stop-over for long distance lorry drivers and all that they bring with them. The only :restaurants" which are really only fast food eatery's and not very good a that. the only thing Colchester has got going for it is that is very convenient for the Addo Elephant park, other than that it is not worth a visit.

    As a teenager I basically grew up in Colchester, not the asea as such, but we did a lot of camping over the years with friends and family. The views are just spectacular and if you love fishing it gets even better as it is a fisherman`s paradise.
