The Kraal Addo Country Estate

Relaxing stay.

Our stay at The Kraal was so relaxing. Thank you to all staff for making it so seamless.

Absoluut die moeite werd vir geld waarde

Ai, wens ek kon langer bly. Dis so rustig skoon, netjies en vriendelik. Hulle kos is uit die boeke.

Dit was presies wat ek nodig gehad het en die kos en mense was wonserlik en baie behulpsaam

Ek beveel The Kraal graag aan

Addo Nasionale Park.

Ons heerlik gekuier by The Kraal en is hartlik ontvang deur die personeel. Ons het gesê dat ons wil braai en met ons aankoms was 'n braaier reeds voor ons kamerdeur gesit. Die ontbyt was heerlik en smaaklik. Ek sal beslis weer by The Kraal gaan oorbly.

Creative photographer can make anything look fantastic.

This is very difficult for me as I do not like negative feedback. We booked at Die Keaal as part of our trip back from Natal and would've stayed 2 nights with a visit to Addo in the middle. We booked self-catering. 2 rooms. The pictures on the internet were tempting and the price was where I would have expected R1800 per night for 2 rooms. Great was the disappointment when we arrived, first of all it is near a fairly large informal settlement, which was not necessarily the only problem. The facilities were demolished on the outside, gardens not tidy, only the overall look was such that we did not want to stay. We cancelled our visit to Addo and left for the Cape the next morning. I requested that the 2nd night be refunded to us, but it does not appear as if it's going to happen. Although the room itself was neat and fairly clean, the shower was dirty and not up to my wife's standard. Possibly a personal preference. I just have to highlight that the receptionist (Tendai if I can remember correctly) provided excellent service. She immediately separated one of the rooms' king bed to provide 2 single beds and, upon request, brought us a braai to the room and even helped get the fire going. It was the only highlight of the visit.

Baie naby Addo Olifantpark en bied goeie waarde vir geld.

Net 10 minute van Addo Olifantpark af. Baie lekker kamers met moderne badkamers. Baie vriendelike en hulpvaardige personeel. Ontbyt meer as voldoende en ook heerlike aandete geniet.

Had a very nice stay.

Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Heerlik en rustig!

Die staff is puik en baie behulpsaam. Baie rustige verblyf. Ontbyt was heerlik en smaakvol. Ons is op die hande gedra. Die kamer se gordyne is net baie baie dun!

Baie lekker gebly.

Baie lekker by The Kraal gebly, waarde vir geld, alhoewel indien dit nie 50% korting was nie, sou die normale tarief duur wees vir wat jy kry.

Bedompige reuk in gang en kamers kan verbeter.

Netjiese kamers. Bedompige reuk kan verbeter. Tyd vir kos-voorbereiding kan verbeter. Baie lekker kos.

Great rooms, great hosts, relaxed atmosphere.

A more than pleasant stay. Colin and Tanya and their staff are fantastic people and really made us feel at home. We came as guests and left as friends, extending our stay by 2 nights. Comfortable lounge and bar facilities and a good priced menu. Their room cleaning staff went out of their way to help us with small laundry chores. They will definitely be seeing us again. Thank you, Colin and Tanya.

Lovely old buildings and furniture.

Loved the stay. The room was large, the bed was huge and the bathroom was big. I would stay there again in a heartbeat. It is close to Addo, Nelson Mandela Bay and other sight-seeing spots. It was useful that we were able to have lunch and dinner on occasion, as well as a wonderful daily cooked to order breakfast. The staff and volunteers were knowledgeable and helpful. The antique furniture and ornaments were fascinating.

Advertensie op website en ervaring van verblyf is totaal verskillend.

Kliëntediens uiters teleurstellend. Foto's misleidend op website. Die ervaring vanaf bespreking tot uitbook swak. Inligting oor akkommodasie-tipes baie swak. Moes upgrade na meer aanvaarbare akkommodasie met aankoms. Uiters koud en donker in sitkamer/eetkamer. Geen verhitting beskikbaar. Buitebraaigeriewe in swak toestand. Geen buite-ontspanarea. Vuil en nat banke staan onder rietjiedak vir gaste. Pooltafel staan in vertrek wat lyk soos 'n stal. Aandete-opsies nie aangebied met aankoms. Ontvangs was bedien deur uitruilstudente wat skaars taal kon praat. Dak gelek in eetkamer met emmers wat rondstaan. Ontbyt gebrekkig en swak aangebied. Geen messe en vurke op tafel vir ontbyt en geen skoon koppies beskikbaar. Niemand doen diens tydens ontbyt nie en jy moet in kombuis gaan vra vir diens. Kamers aangenaam en skoon met goeie beddegoed en matrasse. Plek is donker en koud in die gange na akkommodasie. Onpersoonlike gevoel. Benodig goeie bestuur wat na belange van besoekers kan omsien. Onderhoud van perseel is nodig met verf en algemene opgradering. Ons het ook onveilig gevoel want die hek is nie gesluit die aand nie en die ligging van die plek is oorkant 'n informele behuisingsgebied. Die pryse van akkommodasie is nie in lyn met wat aangebied word nie. Ons het net een nag gebly en toe geskuif na ander akkommodasie vir die tweede nag. Daar was oorsese besoekers en ek het my geskaam vir die swak diens en geriewe. Met navraag vir ander akkommodasie in die omtrek het dit aan die lig gekom dat die ander gastehuise gereeld gaste ontvang wat ontevrede was met die diens en akkommodasie by The Kraal Country Estate. Ek voel ingeloop deur die tarief wat ons betaal het vir die nag se akkommodasie en diens. Ek sal nooit dit aanbeveel vir enige ander besoekers nie. Die potensiaal is daar om met klein veranderinge beter diens aan te bied. Daar bestaan egter geen idee van kliëntediens tans nie en is die pryse is buitensporig vir wat jy kry. Ek sal die plek as 'n "backpackers" klassifiseer met die idee jy aanvaar wat jy kry teen lae pryse.

Clean and neat.

Good value for money, clean and neat.

It's a nice, neat, stylish place with friendly service.

We were very kindly welcomed and accompanied to our room. The room was neat, stylish and comfortable and had everything we needed. The breakfast was very tasty and the staff friendly and helpful. The Pub Lunch we enjoyed was just as tasty and the service was nice and friendly. I would recommend anyone to stay at The Kraal Addo Country Estate.

Bad service, bad self-catering units.

Delayed check in. No kettle.

Rustig. Veilig.

Die personeel het ons vriendelik ontvang en ons voorsien in alles wat ons nodig gehad het om as familie lekker te kuier.

Heerlike, ontspanne atmosfeer.

Pragtige ruim kamer met alles wat nodig is. Pragtige linne en 'n heerlike ontbyt. Baie lekker gebly hier.

Great stay.

Sien sterre.

Nice and clean rooms and bathroom.

The staff were friendly and everything was where it should be. There was no rush with the booking and we could check in immediately without any issues. This place's chef can really cook!

A lifetime experience.

Me and my family enjoyed a wonderful time at affordable cost.

The room was luxurious, spacious and comfortable.

We had a lovely time. Our room was lovely and spacious as well as the bathroom. However, the towel rail broke when we checked in, but it was quickly fixed. The owner was very helpful and put in some effort with special requests. Breakfast was lovely. Dinner and restaurant facilities can improve. I will definitely stay here again.

We enjoyed our stay very much.

The Kraal is close to excellent restaurants and also close to main gate of Addo Elephant Park. Staff were friendly and helpful.

Comfortably close to Addo with beautiful and neat rooms and good meals.

Young people are trained here. Friendly reception, excellent service, beautiful rooms and gorgeous garden. Had a good time in the pub with nice dinners. Very helpful with regards to organising a safari drive through Addo. The railway line closeby kept my friends awake.

Very neat! Just unfortunate that one has to pay extra to have TV!

We enjoyed our stay and the place was neat. We had a negative experience at arrival. There were so many doors, none of which were open, and we had to try each door to look for reception. We were also surprised at a TV that we weren't able to use. R450 a night is a bit steep if you don't even have use of a TV. Would recommend that the guest house considers getting DStv for the rooms to make the price worth it. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.

Lovely accommodation and breakfast.

The gueshouse is beautifully equipped with modern and antique decor. Our unit was neat and clean and the linen was of outstanding quality. The "farm breakfast" was delicious and filling. The Kraal is close to Addo Eliphant Park. We appreciate the receptionist who sorted out a little problem very promptly. Good luck for the road ahead!

Very good service!

Exceptionally pretty and neat guest house. The service is very good and the breakfast was delicious.

Dit was ongelooflik en prentjiemooi.

Dit is 'n pragtige gastehuis met die vriendelikste, gasvrye mense. Hul bied net die beste vir hul gaste. Dit is 'n moet om daar te oornag as jy in die Addo-omgewing is.

Dit was baie aangenaam en dit het gevoel asof ek by familie tuis was.

Die ontvangsdame is 'n juweel en maak die verblyf baie aangenaam met haar professionele en vriendelike houding. Addo is as gevolg van die wildtuin 'n goeie bestemming. Die eenhede is baie skoon en mooi.

Aangenaam verras

Ons was aangenaam verras met die akkommodasie. Lammy het ons hartlik verwelkom en genooi om ietsie uit die restaurant te bestel om te eet en drink. Die leefareas se binneversiering was smaakvol gedoen, en die kamers was goed toegerus met gehalte-linne en beddegoed. Die ontbyt was watertandlekker en ingesluit by die verblyf.

Ongelooflik baie lekker - rustige omgewing.

Colin en Diane is baie gasvry en het ons onmiddellik baie welkom laat voel. Al die personeel is baie vriendelik en soggens tydens ontbyt word daar met gaste gesels - ook deur dag en aande in die kroeg kuier almal heerlik saam. Die kamers is pragtig en baie netjies (dit word elke dag skoongemaak en die skoon handdoeke daagliks is awesome). Die dekor in die hele gastehuis is ongelooflik mooi en baie keurig gekies en stylvol. Ontbyt is 'n absolute treffer! Ek is 'n diabeet en my insulien moet in die yskas gehou word - Diane het nie geskroom om my na die kombuis te neem en my insulien in hul yskas te hou nie, en ek kon dit gaan uithaal soos en wanneer ek dit benodig het. Baie baie dankie. Ons sal The Kraal vir enige iemand aanbeveel en sal enige tyd weer daar tuisgaan.

Colin en span: welgedaan!

Uitstekende plek en vriendelike mense. Ons was so tuis, dit voel soos huis. Goed geleë. Outydse plaas-atmosfeer, netjies en skoon - alhoewel hulle steeds in kinderskoene staan, het ons uitstekende en baie vriendelike diens ervaar. Colin, sy vrou, kinders en Lammie maak dit lekker om daar oor te bly. Kos en blyplek is van goeie waarde. Baie dankie vir die aangename ervaring.
