    Really beautiful place on the river so nice at sunrise and sunset. Staff were very friendly and good location to access Addo. Lots of activities offered like canoeing which we didn’t participate in but seemed fun! Was equipped with all we needed....

    Love the location, and the fact that they add small touches to let you feel welcomed. Chocolates on bed, white clean bedding, milk in fridge aswell as juice. My husband loved the fishing, we will return. Beautiful sunsets!

    The boat was clean and neat. They supplied fresh fruit juice and milk as well as chocolate. The view was amazing, especially the sunrise in the morning. I liked the flaps that could be lowered to shield from the wind.
