Chrislin African Lodge

We had a great stay at Chrislin, a beautiful location surrounded by citrus trees and close to Addo. The accommodation was charming, and the meals were delicious, with both breakfast and dinner exceeding our expectations. The staff were very friendly and helpful, always ready to assist with any questions we had. A special mention goes to André, who not only provided excellent service during meals, but also shared his enthusiasm and knowledge about the area. His tips and stories made us even more excited for our excursions. Chrislin arranged a wonderful excursion to Addo Elephant Park with Criss Cross Adventures. This trip was amazing, and the Criss Cross team was very professional and passionate. Overall, Chrislin is a fantastic place to stay. We highly recommend it for anyone visiting Addo. It was a memorable experience!

We can absolutely recommend Chrislin Lodge. The lodge is surrounded by citrus orchards. You live in a small, very comfortable hut, entirely in African style. The breakfast is appropriate, the dinner is absolutely fantastic. All employees are very friendly. The garden and pool are very inviting. A really great location! Best regards Stephanie and Toby

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 atmosphere 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.

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.
