M. Tuck
Stayed at: Barefoot Addo Elephant Lodge Luxury Villa
Pure bliss
Excellent service from our talented Chef Khanya, who went out of his way to consider everyone's very different dietary requirements, as well as from Georg,e our friendly and attentive butler. The wild animals wander around the villa, and you will most likely open the curtains in your room in the morning to various herds of different buck, bush pigs, etc as well as an elephant or three. Would definitely recommend a stay at this beautifully designed and decorated villa.

Staying at the family villa was the holiday of a lifetime, truly an incredible experience. The butler was attentive, and the chef was brilliant and catered the meals to our dietary requirements and allergies. The perfect mix of luxury and adventure: all different animals came extremely close to the villa, which we could enjoy from the comfortable living space or the swimming pool.
I hope to be able to stay another weekend someday!

A mezzanine lounge area provides an additional space for relaxation, while a sparkling private swimming pool offers the perfect spot to cool off on warm afternoons.
Setting Description
Located within a vast and untamed landscape, the villa is set apart from the main lodge, offering a truly private sanctuary in the heart of the bush. The surrounding wilderness is alive with the sights and sounds of Africa, from birdsong at dawn to the distant roar of lions at night. With a dedicated team, including a personal guide, private chef, and butler/housekeeper, every detail is taken care of, allowing guests to fully unwind and immerse themselves in the experience. The villa’s location within the Greater Addo region provides easy access to spectacular wildlife viewing, with elephants, antelope, and other native species frequently spotted nearby.

PLEASE NOTE THAT WE ARE NOT PART OF THE ADDO ELEPHANT NATIONAL PARK.
This area is situated in the pristine valleys of the Zuurberg Mountains within the Greater Addo Area, is regarded as one of Africa's most biologically diverse, supporting 5 of the 7 biomes, or eco-regions, in Southern Africa.
This valley bushveld region encompasses habitats ranging from semi-arid Karoo areas, across fynbos-covered slopes which merge with impenetrable thickets and montane forests, extending into rolling grasslands stretching all the way to the Sunshine Coast of the Eastern Cape.
Blessed with this natural bio diversity the conservancy is able to sustain a wide range and number of animals. The indigenous and plentiful Spekboom (Pork bush) is well adapted to the pressure of sustaining elephant herds who are renowned for their destructive browsing habits. The Spekboom is highly nutritious, has the ability to store much needed water in its succulent leaves, and recovers from elephant abuse astonishingly quickly.
