105 guests' feedbackWe had a great stay at River Front Estate. The valley boasts the most beautiful scenery and you can sit and watch the sun set on your porch. Nicely located near the Addo Park. Lisa was very helpful with reservations for excursions.
Had a lovely stay at River Front Estate! Everything you need and so much more. Can definitely recommend this jewel!
Really a lovely place. Would definitely go back. Loved the attention to detail.
A great spot close to Addo and restaurants. The rooms are clean, well-equipped and guarded by the coolest dogs in the world. We booked for a conference at Addo and after seeing the accommodation in Addo, this is far better at a lower price.
Thank you very much for very good service and beautiful units! It was just a pleasure and our first choice will be River Front Estate again when we are in the area again! Definitely value for money and the breathtaking scenery!
Yes, very nice and convenient.
It was absolutely lovely. The nature around you is amazing. Close to restaurant. Delicious cooking.
Beautiful, neat place with very friendly service.
I had a very nice stay. The host was very helpful and looked after us well.
Beautiful clean, spacious, well equipped accommodation. Our hostess was very helpful and had already exposed us via WhatsApp to places to eat and the road conditions. The surroundings and gardens are also very beautiful and maintained. Good accommodation quite close to Addo's gate. Will visit again.
River Front Estate made us feel very welcome. We had a very nice stay. Top guesthouse.
Stunning location and a great host.
Outstanding. Will go again and again.
Very friendly, personal service. Neat, well equipped, quiet dogs and cat make it home.
Good value for money, and helpful owners.
The host was fantastic with suggestions for trips, places to eat, load shedding schedules.
Hospitably and kindly received. The rooms are beautiful, neat and tasteful. Nice view of the river from the porch.
River Front Estate is a beautiful place on the bank of the Sondags River with nice views and friendly service and you don't have to worry about load shedding, there is a generator. The restaurant serves delicious meals.
The people are very pleasant and we had a wonderful stay.
Perfect location for the Addo area, close to everything and very nice view!
Great spot close to Addo NP.
From the moment we arrived we could feel the peace. We were pleasantly welcomed by the owner and her lovely K-9 assistants. Enjoyed every minute of our stay in our neo-rustic unit and would highly recommend the activities on offer in the area.
The accommodation in Addo National Park is twice as expensive as Riverfront Estate, and the standard of accommodation is much poorer. River Front Estate is also within walking distance of a good restaurant.
Appreciate the generator to avoid load shedding! The shower floor is just very smooth. A rubber mat might help.
Picturesque, very quiet and peaceful. Friendly service. Immediately felt welcome.
Child friendly, exactly as advertised. Had a wonderful stay.
Beautiful view and well equipped rooms. Enjoyed sitting and barbecuing in the evenings with that view.
Just keep doing what you're doing.
Would recommend River Front Estate anytime.
Very pleased! Thank you.
Beautiful view of the Sundays River. We had a lovely stopover en route to East London. We took advantage of the proximity to Addo Elephant Park to drive through. Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed due to Covid but we were able to grab takeaway meals from a place close by. Thanks for the recommendation.
It was very neat. Friendly service. Lisa is a great hostess who communicates well. After 2 weeks on the road, we had our laundry done. Peace and quiet in nature with a lovely view and a friendly cat.
The view is beautiful, cottages are lovely and Lisa was a wonderful hostess. Thank you! We will definitely be back.
Very nice place, very friendly welcome, and everything explained about what can be done in the area. Has everything a people needs and more.
Lovely place with a very nice view of the river.
Very comfortable beds, spotlessly clean.
Neat, artistic and unique accommodation. Ideal for after a long day of animal viewing in Addo, a quiet barbecue by the river itself, or a comfortable visit in the family restaurant in the barn.
Loved it, amazing friendly service and great advice, spotless and best food in ages! Will see them again soon!
River Front Estate is located very close to Addo (12 km) from the main entrance and the ideal accommodation option if you are going to visit the park. Lisa is very friendly and helpful, we really enjoyed sleeping over there.
We only had a nights stopover here on our way home but a lovely unit with everything we needed. Absolute must stop for birders, amazing variety!
The cottage was lovely and super clean. Lisa made great recommendations regarding restaurants and wildlife safaris nearby. We had a wonderful time close to nature.
River Front Estate is beautifully situated, next to the river. The service was excellent and the accommodation very neat.

We were warmly welcomed and given suggestions of things to do around the area and the various discounts that were currently available. We were then left in private so we could enjoy our weekend. Our room was cleaned every day when we were not home. It was peaceful and quiet which made for a lovely night's rest with the gentle river - and bird sounds in the background. It was the perfect getaway for me and my husband.
River Front Estate was a big surprise. The decor is beautiful! Lovely shower. You struggle to get out once you're in. Nice view of the river. It is spacious and has everything you need.
This place would have been heavenly if there was air conditioning in the unit, the heat into the night was unbearable. The unit my Mother was in was cooler - the roof structure is different. It is an absolute paradise. The unit was very clean and tidy. The on site restaurant food is absolutely fantastic!
We also decided at short notice to add a few extra days to our holiday. Lisa immediately made arrangements for us to accommodate us. I wholeheartedly recommend River Front Estate to anyone.
The room exceeded our highest expectations. Very comfortable and modernly furnished. The room was very clean and hygienic. We will definitely stay there again.
I was well received and slept in a very nice bed. The restaurant on site is a very good plus and everyone is very friendly.
Very good location to visit Addo Elephant Park. Will stay there again in the future.
We were well welcomed. Very friendly lady.
There is a nice peaceful feeling, especially with the view over the river from the patio. The animals that are so friendly and come visit was also just a pleasure!
See stars.
Our intention was to visit the Addo Elephant Park and River Front Estate provided a convenient, clean and pleasant place to overnight in Addo. Lisa and her staff were efficient and very friendly.
Luckily the neighbor was quiet, otherwise no privacy. Not even a screen between you and neighbor.
No braai wood or salt and pepper provided. No TV or DSTV. This reflects poor hospitality which I found disappointing for the Eastern Cape.
The unit is very clean and tidy. The entire unit was "disinfected". Because we were there earlier than the appointed time, we had to wait a bit because the "virus fogger" was still drying. However, we didn't mind because we were reassured that the unit was "safe". View beautiful and peaceful.
The accommodation exceeded our expectations. Beautiful rooms with a breathtaking view. We will definitely want to stay there again. It is at the Addopark and very easy to also visit the park as a day visitor.
A real gem in Addo. 10 mins away from the National Park. Newly renovated with lovely touches. Setting on the Sundays River was lovely for sundowners and quiet braai. Definitely worth a visit if you looking for somewhere to stay in Addo.
Very convenient near Addo Park.
Host at estate, the employees and restaurant owners were one of the most friendliest and helpful people I have ever met 100%. Suggestion: The Estate is near a beautiful tranquil river hence, it has enormous potential. A walk-way with railings and lights (wandelpad) that leads to the clear side of the river with a picnic/braai spot will definitely attract more people. Owner should get a professional landscaper and let them design the lay-out from the chalets to the river.
The room was impeccably clean and tidy.
The entryway could definitely use a facelift.
Owner, Lisa, gave us a very warm welcome. The cottage was very complete and clean. Stunning view and sunsets from the terrace, only 13 km from Addo Elephant Park's main gate.
I had an amazing weekend at River Front Estate. The views, the staff, the accommodation and the restaurant were all amazing. I would definitely recommend this hidden gem to anyone looking for some quiet time from the city.
Very friendly welcome. Beautiful room and bathroom. Clean and tidy. Cleaned and towels changed every day. Lovely view and not far from Addo National Park. Quiet area and cute restaurant on site.
We were warmly received and shown our room and we immediately felt at home and comfortable. We will use them again if we go in that direction again. Lisa was in contact with us all the time. Thanks to you too for keeping us informed.
We had a wonderful stay at Riverfront Estate. The owners were very friendly and helpful and the accommodation very neat and clean.
Beautiful place with staff that walk the extra mile.
Lisa kindly welcomed us and looked after us during our visit. A definite asset to the Addo environment.
Safe accommodation. Good restaurant. Good communication and pleasant stay.
That part of the Eastern Cape was very beautiful to us with friendly people and good service. If I had to say something negative, it would be about certain stretches of road. Furthermore, a wonderful experience.
We had a wonderful stay. Als is sparkling clean and the view over the river was a treat. The 5 ospreys on day 1 was a bonus. Can recommend the food at the restaurant on site.
Beautifully furnished unit and friendly reception. Everything neat and clean. A quiet and peaceful environment to unwind after a day long journey.
Clean, tidy accommodation. Most beautiful view and peaceful atmosphere.
Thank you very much. It was very neat, great service, peaceful environment. Excellent.
Very close to Addo Elephant Park.
Sorry the restaurant was closed but was referred to Africanos to watch rugby and for supper. My partner enjoyed the room so much she didn’t want to leave.
We slept there for two nights and it was fantastic. Would recommend it to anyone.
We were received very kindly and felt very welcome. The view is beautiful and the accommodation is less than 15 minutes' drive from the elephant park. The kitchen is well equipped and we slept well in a large bed with soft bedding. Will definitely return again in the future.
Hospitable reception. Clean and tidy accommodation. Will stay there again.
Beautiful, clean unit with a lovely view from your deck. The unit is equipped with everything you could possibly need. They have thought of everything and an added bonus is an on-site dining area, a stone's throw from the units. Quiet and peaceful!
Fantastic, accommodation really neat and clean and would recommend to all those looking for good clean and good pricing. The staff were really pleasant and helpful. Perhaps the only negative is that no washing up facilities for those who wish to self cater. However the staff were happy to do the washing of dishes the next day.
Only thing missing is a TV in the unit.
The accommodation is managed well, the service is friendly and we recommend it.
Would recommend the place anytime for families with children under 10. Cottage a bit too small for family with teenage children. It was very neat and clean. The absence of braai facilities at the cottages with such a beautiful view of the river was disappointing.
First part of the road not ideal for low sedan cars. Beautiful setting in the mountains and good value for money.
Enjoyed a very nice weekend, the unit is very neat and clean. Three things that did bother me, which I think can be fixed with relatively little effort and expense. Air conditioner will make a very big difference, winter and summer, The kitchen is quite equipped, the two plate stove had to be plugged in with difficulty, for older people it will definitely be a problem. I would have preferred braai facilities but did borrow a weber from owner which made it absolutely worth it. There is a restaurant on the property. The immediate surroundings right in front of the unit riverside could use attention, there was work on nature, but on the surface it didn't look good to us, flowers e.g. was pruned and thrown away right there among other things, maybe I'm complaining about nonsense. What impressed us is the complete information library indicating everything to do in the immediate area. Overall, we really enjoyed it and there's not much to really complain about. The silence of the night and surroundings is what every city dweller definitely needs, and that only an hour from PE.
Neat and clean. At least expected a breakfast for R850 per night.
Neat, well equipped accommodation with fantastic view over the river. Relaxing and quiet with very friendly personal attention.
We were received very kindly. We were also fully informed about what is available in the area in terms of restaurant, visit to the Addo National Park, roads to use etc. I would definitely recommend River Front to any person who prefers a quiet, tidy and peaceful environment and place to stay.
Very satisfied with our choice. The unit is cleaned and bedding changed daily. They even provided a dray face cloth each day. Our friends wanted to know if this place has 5 star grading, to which I said no, but their service is definitely better than 5 star.
Accommodation is neat and clean. Wonderful view of the river. We had a very nice stay. Thank you Lisa.
Very nice accommodation close to the Addo park. The view is breathtakingly beautiful, rooms are nicely furnished and the free fast wifi internet is a bonus.
Was received very friendly and professionally. Had a great stay. Three things though, although they didn't bother us much: There is no TV. For the price you pay, especially when you compare it to other similar places, there should be a TV with DStv reception. As self-catering accommodation there should also be a sink in the kitchenette. Now you have to wash your few dishes in the bathroom sink. The bathroom shower door must have a waterproofing strip underneath. When you take a shower now, there is water spilled on the bathroom floor which then needs to be dried up.
Friendly and hospitable reception and service. Comfortable and clean accommodation. Will stay there again.
Beautiful view over the Sondag River where you can sit and enjoy a sundowner. The room was very clean with all of the facilities to make the accommodation pleasant and the reception was very friendly.
All was 5 star, but we missed a TV in our room.
Received very neat and very friendly customer service.
River Front Estate could consider installing basic DStv and SABC channels. Not all guests want to go sit at a restaurant and bar to watch TV. Regarding the rooms, consider getting a table for the unit where you can at least sit and eat or drink coffee.
The owners deserve praise for the restoration they completed in such a short while.
Thank you very much Lisa, for the lovely overnight stay. Neat and clean with everything you need in it. Wish we could stay longer. Will be returning.
We had such a pleasant stay at Riverfront Estate. Lisa was so welcoming. She went out of her way to make it as comfortable as possible for us. The rooms are clean and everything one could need is there. It was so nice to have a bath. There are great braai facilities and we could enjoy watching the sun set from the bird hide. I was especially impressed with River Lodge. Enough information on the environment was included in a folder. I would definitely recommend this place to friends when they're in the neighbourhood! Thank you, Lisa!
Our room was lovely, but we don't recommend it for self-catering. The kitchenette is just too small. We unfortunately also had no view, so request a view when you're doing your booking — the rooms provide a view over the river and they all have verandas. The location is ideal, just a few minutes drive to Addo National Park and close to the café. Unfortunately it is not suited for people with small children, they constantly need to be watched and the rooms are just to small to keep them entertained. The service was wonderful, our room was cleaned daily and the linen was replaced every second day. The owners are friendly, very helpful and is clearly working hard to upgrade River Front Estate. If you need a convenient stop over place, River Front Estate is ideal.
