Everything was above expectations. We were pampered and felt like part of the family. It's a boutique hotel with few rooms and as result the staff gets to know you very well. We enjoyed all the amenities as well as a tour of Addo also organized by the hotel.

Great quiet and comfortable place in Summerstrand close to the beaches and some nice restaurants. Outstandingly friendly and hospitable owner Alida made us feel fully at home and did everything and beyond to give us excellent and detailed information not just for the PE area but also for our next stops on our way to Cape Town. Friendly staff member Alan was not just as welcoming and friendly, but also cooked us a delicious breakfast. This stay was the most personal experience we had during our round trip so far. Hospitality taken to the next level. A clear recommendation for anyone visiting PE.

Barefoot is a reasonable size reserve accessed off a 25km dirt road that can be a little bumpy in places. A 4x4 is recommended particularly if it rains. We opted for a private transfer to and from the airport and Caleb our driver was just a master at navigating the rough roads - well worth the £180 for the transfer (he also took us on a game drive on a neighbouring reserve close to Addo, organised by Barefoot and he was just incredible, so knowledgable and able to track down the elusive rhino - we would seriously recommend). The Barefoot reserve doesn’t have the big 5 and the 3 Barefoot elephants are cared for by dedicated keepers who spend all their days walking with them as they roam around the reserve. At night the elephants are housed in a very large protected paddock to ensure their safety. You will see giraffe, wilderbeast, zebra as a minimum - they come in herds to graze around the villa of an evening which is an incredible sight. The views from the villa are breathtaking as it sits on its own on a hilltop. There’s good WiFi, no TV (which for us was a good thing), beds were so comfy and the staff - Olivia and Soso just made our stay perfect 🥰

Born and bread in Port Elizabeth, the City has a lot of amazing sites to visit. At the heart of the Donkin Reserve stands the striking Stone Pyramid Monument, built by Sir Rufane Donkin, the Acting Governor of the Cape Colony in the 1820s. He erected the pyramid in 1820 as a touching tribute to his beloved wife, Lady Elizabeth Donkin, after whom the city was named (Port Elizabeth) to the 50m high Campanile Memorial with a climb of 204 steps offering a magnificent view of the harbor and surroundings.
