Chrislin African Lodge

What a wonderful experience at Chrislin African Lodge...from the exceptionally clean and neat rooms, to the friendly service to the chefs in the kitchen...I couldn't have asked for any better! My only disappoin**ent is that I could not stay longer. A home away from home - highly recommended!

It is a beautiful property, near the main roadso easy to find. The staff are all lovely, friendly etc. The main problem was a mix up with my partners breakfast, the order was not correct when he cleary stated what he wanted. Nothing major but annoying and shouldn't happen

Found Chrislin Lodge very comfortable and relaxing. Well organised establishment, safe with friendly staff. Close to Addo Elephant park, only downside was the condition of the access roads, where road works are being conducted.

What can we say except thank you so much 🙏 First of all Linda is an amazing person She welcomed us with a wonderful smile and a warm welcome and immediately gave as the the feeling of a vacation and took care of everything we needed. We got the room immediately when we arrived The staff is always nice and will serve you with pleasure and a big smile The location is a key ! Close to all best attractions that Addo has to offer located minutes from the Addo national park We booked crisscross adventures that was just great and showed as the best palaces and made sure we will have an unforgettable holiday The lodge is big and full of space perfect for private romantic or a family & friends vacation Everything is clean and top level the gardens are amazingly green and beautiful and the pool area is so lovely and inviting so you can hangout and spend the day in the sun The rooms are self build with the finest African style,modern ,big ,comfy , clean and quite ( the bed was amazing ) Jean the chef cooks amazing dishes that we found to be so tasty ( we couldn’t stop eating 😂) and all the vegetables and fruits are so fresh because they are growing it in their farm Honestly we had are doubts coming first time from Israel to south Africa But it was beyond all expectations This place is the best value for money that you can find in Addo and the nicest people that there is no price for Highly recommend Thank you for everything Linda it was a real pleasure!

The lodge is an oasis of peace and quiet. For us, this was the sixth and final stop of our trip. We even booked an extra (third) night here, because we found such peace and quiet in the lodge's huge garden among the citrus groves. With our three children, we stayed in a hut with two adjoining rooms. The word hut is an understatement for the very luxurious feeling of the rooms. This is due to the sober but tasteful decor, the great king size beds and the beautiful bathroom with spacious shower. The huts are cleverly arranged, giving you a great sense of privacy, while both the restaurant (where you can have breakfast and dinner) and the pool and playground (highly appreciated by the kids) are all close by. The lodge has a very family a**osphere because of the friendly presence of owner Linda and her son Chris (who organizes day activities and can take you to unique places that you would never be able to see or do on a regular guided tour - check out his company Criss Cross Adventures). If there is one place in SA where we would come again, it is this one.

After our last visit what was perfect ,3 years back,we found now on a new trip a completely service’s less and aged ,non mentained lodge. Nobody helping with luggage.,in the lodge,lots of animals,beetles and other insects , comming probable from the roof what needs urgently maintenance. The kichen choice of 5 dishes,every day the same,serviced in the restaurant by a so called chef in swimming short and slippers. Choice of 3 wines (due to covid,he had to trow wine away whyle it was to old !!!) Then the payment,no card machine option ..(to expensive due to covid !!) Only positive point was the breakfast.

A very nice place to stay in Addo. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The cabins are very nicely decorated in African style. The breakfast is delicious and the dinner was excellent. The Addo Elephant Park is only twelve kilometers away. We like to come here again.

Great location for Addo park. the set up with the huts as accommodation is like a movie of old africa. We loved it

The venue was really great, staff were outstanding and food was delicious. We enjoyed a relaxing time at Chrislin, also close to the Addo.
