Wonderful
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travelers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
This was a gem, large well appointed rooms set in lovely gardens and close to the Addo Game Reserve, the breakfast area outside was lovely, for dinner ate in a separate restaurant onsite, also in a lovely setting and the food was good though the wine choice: 1 white, 1 red and 1 rose was a little limited but we would come back.
We felt the on site restaurant could have offered more selection especially on starters one of which stayed the same for 3 nights and the other was a soup which did change but it wasn't exactly exciting. There are not many other restaurant choices in the area.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The accommodation itself is good, the large garden is well maintained, the dinner and breakfast were good, the staff was friendly. Unfortunately, our room smelled very musty, brown water initially ran out of the tap, which didn't make a good impression.
We stayed at Gerald's Gift mainly to visit the Addo Elphant Park thought there were other activities near by if you wanted them.
However. Gerald's Gift itself was a little bit of Heaven. A beautiful house set in fabulous gardens way off the road behind automatic gates in developing fruit orchards. The rooms were beautiful each like little cottages in the garden.
Our hosts Sue and Roger we most friendly and helpful and the breakfast was excellent.
We ate 2 night running at Africanus, an hotel just a little way down the road.
We loved Gerald's Gift and would thoroughly recommend it if you are visiting the area
Begrüssung war ok, aber nicht mehr. Keine Tips oder wie die Fahrt war. Bei Verabschiedung das selbe, nicht gefragt, ob alles ok war oder so.
Im Restaurant, war das Essen gut, aber der Service total überfordert. Frühstück war nicht bereit, obwohl es ab 7.30 Frühstück geben sollte.
Garten war sehr schön.
Nächstes Mal würden wir wo anders schlafen.
Warm welcome by the owner and all details of room and facilities given. Very neat, well furnished room with beautiful ensuite. Private and secure. Really enjoyed our overnight stay and will definitely go back.
The guest house was fantastic, perfect for the Addo elephant park, great house with two lovely dogs for extra company!
The small eatery at the bottom of the garden was a real plus. Perfect place
We enjoyed a wonderful stay at Gerald's and really liked the surrounding gardens and its tranquility.
Lovely and clean room and hard to imagine it once had a different purpose (the cottage front door is revealing), quite, personal parking space and just 10 minutes to Addo Elephant park.
Great breakfast too and a citrus plantation to get lost in. You will definitely see all the game through very clean windows
but you we suggest you experience it yourself. Recommended for sure.
Amazing place to stay when visiting Addo Elephant Park. Very near to main gate. The hosts were very friendly and helpful and the accommodation was very comfortable. Breakfast was very good and lots
of it. We very much enjoyed our stay and waking up to a clean car having spent travelling around Addos dirt tracks was a welcomed surprise. We also loved the two friendly dogs Joshua and Benson. We very much recommend a stay at this truly delightful guest house
Perfect location if you want the visit Addo National Park. Difficult to fault anything very restful, and the lady in charge was very helpful. Gardens of the property beautiful.
Leuk hotel te midden van een grote citrusplantage. Zeer mooe tuin! Lekker restaurant 2 km verderop, aanrader voor sushi-liefhebbers. Elephantpark ligt op 10 km, voor de rest is hier weinig te doen.
