This was the best hotel in our garden route tour. Every detail has been looked after. The room had an amazing view, a wooden fire hot tub, fireplace, comfy bed, the people were very attentive and the pool and sauna were a very big plus. Highly recommended!

From start to finish a fantastic experience - the camp is focused on conservation and reuniting the animals with their home - which we felt throughout the safaris we did. Our guide, Seve, was so knowledgeable and friendly, making great conversation throughout. The food was fantastic, the staff were all very good and the pool was nice after a morning safari!

We stayed at Eco Camp, this means that you sleep inside a tent, comfortable but suitable to more warm temperature, than it was during our accommodation. It was cold for us but tolerable. The main attraction was daily driving with Qiu (hope that pronunciation is right) with an aim to find "any animal that moves". And we found almost all of them... And we eat three times a day (too much). The food was excellent, thanks to a chef. The atmosphere in the camp was very friendly, The fynbos is marvelous. marvelous. Very nice experience.

Nice clean rooms, beautiful poolarea and a super nice pool bar, very good dinner and breakfast and service was great. The safari was really nice as well as the guide. If you are looking for safari in the Cape Town area this was definitely worth the drive. We went to Aquila Game park the week after and Garden route game lodge was much nicer.

Lovely area.

Lovely area. We visited Santos Beach which is a blue flag beach. Wonderful white sand. Free parking, sun shades and toilets. We ate in the Santos Express Train cafe and were lucky enough to have a tour of the train accommodation. Very nice. We also visited Mossel Zipline, the longest zipline over the ocean, in the world. A must for thrill seekers.

The pictures of our accommodation were misleading , they give you great pics and when you arrive the room is called a garden view room , it has no view and is up two sets of stairs , hot water took ten minutes to warm up and still was Luke warm , I would never recommended they stay to anyone , even the reception guy stated we were misled , I video recorded my conversation with him . The wilderness itself is stunning and worth the visit

Beautiful and tranquil surroundings. Tsitsikamma Lodge in the forest, stunning accommodation. Storms River Village a must to visit, lovely restaurants and starting point for outdoor activities . Enjoyed the Tsitsikamma Canopy Tour, the guides were so friendly, had loads of fun! Marilyn's 60's Diner - lovey restaurant definitely worth a visit. Don't forget to visit the Wolf Dog Sanctuary Would love to have spent more time there to explore the hidden gems.

Albertinia is a small country town without the big fast food take aways . Very rural . You can buy the basics at one of the cafes or Pizza place . There is not much as far as shops go so it is a stopover to break a long journey or a week or two of total peace and quite without too many modern day interruptions. There is a braai area and all you could want to have to have an enjoyable stop and a good night's sleep and no rush to get you out in the morning .. I simply bought rolls and cold meat and yogurt at Piet se kafee as I did not want to cook . Coffee is provided although if to a heavy coffee drinker you may want to buy a bit extra as most guest houses only give you enough for two or three cups of coffee . I had a nice chat with the owner who told me about the abundance of underground water and about the area in general...This is not a property where you can come in and drink and party and be a nuisance to others . . No smoking inside the chalets which is excellent @
