Guest Reviews
- Howard (10/5): - Everything about the establishment was satisfactory. The facilities, the staff and the food was excellent. They should look into having ironing facilities in the rooms.
- Finlay (8/5): -
- Ntombekaya (10/5): - Friendly, and very caring staff.
We got lost and the manager stayed with us on the phone until we reached the destination. Everything met my expectations.
- Susanne (10/5): Sensationell - Die Lemon 3 Lodge hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Die Anlage liegt etwas ausserhalb, inmitten eines gepflegten Gartens und die Zimmer sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Die Gastgeber waren super freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir erhielten Tipps für Restaurants und Tanja hat uns eine sensationelle Safari im Schotia Private Reserve zusammengestellt. Nochmals vielen Dank! -
- Anneke Anthony (9/5): -
- Jessica (3/5): Not sure bout this one - The pool was ok- but was slightly green and a bit murkey The place was okay, and from the outside things seemed fine. When arriving in the room, there wasnt really anything to welcome us in or explain- no information about local stuff, and the TV remote didnt work. On arrival the owner offered us some beers- initially we thought as a welcome drink, then proceeded to say they would be R25 a can...
Be aware this place is in the middle of NOWHERE!! We stayed here to experience Addo- but is still 40min drive on poor roads to the main gate.
We were then asked if we would like breakfast- which we agreed to (At this point we were not informed that we would be charged extra for it as there was no mention of it)- they did ask about dietary requirements which I thought was good, and I was told they would organise it for us. What we did think was strange is that we werent asked what we wanted, and upon recieving breakfast- we were quite surprised at the poor quality of the ingredients offered- but this was okay (considering we thought it was included) - I being veggie was brought out a small portion of mushrooms, 3 slices of raw tomato and a couple of tiny bits of bread, while my brother recieved a full english style breakfast. It is important to note that all of these ingredients were clearly the cheapest quality and the juice- I doubt it contained any real fruit, which was HUGELY dissapointing considering that we were in the middle of a citrus valley. The next day we were yet again offered breakfast, and yet again- there was no mention of any extra charges. Upon trying to check out of the place, we were slapped with an almost R600 bill for these breakfasts (which we didnt pay)-We were then told "they had told us" it was R130 a breakfast - which is outrageous- nevermind the lack of quality and difference in the breakfasts we recieved.
- Jeanet (9/5): - Super vriendelijke gastvrouw, keurig groene grasmat, leuk zwembad, bloeiende bloemen. Prima ontbijtje Dat er op zondagavond geen restaurantje open is in Kirkwood, maar de take away pizza was heel goed.
- Jenna Amber (8/5): We have a very pleasant stay - The pool and air conditioner is a very big bonus in the summer time!
- André (9/5): Goede plek voor vakantie. - De manager en haar team was bijzonder aardig, vriendelijk en behulpzaam Veel geluid van andere gasten ivm party bij zwembad.
- pierre (4/5): Bien mais peut mieux faire - L’hôtel est situé à l’extérieur de la ville. Facile d’accès.
Toutes les chambres (neuves) donnent sur la piscine et le jardin (très bien entretenus)
Les chambres sont grandes. Odeur de cigarette dans toute la chambre et sur la literie.
Les serviettes de bain et de piscine sont à la demande.
- Florin (10/5): - Locatie fabuloasa Nimic
- Olivier (9/5): - Très bon hébergement avec une très bonne literie dans un cadre très soigné et avec une hôte très sympathique.
- Sudashin (10/5): Great short get away - One of the nicest places we've stayed at ..my family and I loved it
The rooms were super clean ..newly renovated..with aircon,wifi,bar fridge ,microwave .huge shower..with an outdoor shower.
Dstv and comfortable beds and clean bedding.
Will definitely return when im back in the province.its about 45mins to Addo Elephant park ..but we didn't mind the drive it was scenic, peaceful, and beautiful
Special mention to our gracious and friendly host Charmaine..she went out of her way to make our stay so pleasurable...she even upgraded us to the "honeymoon" suite 😁
The pictures you see is exactly what you get.
If you ever in the Addo or Kirkwood area ..give this place a try 👌🏽👍🏽 Nothing to complain about
- AliWil (8/5): -
- Adam (10/5): - Beautiful communal space. Charmaine was an amazing host!
- Sibusiso (10/5): It was delightful - It is isolated and very quiet. Very well maintained. Nothing really
- Paul (8/5): Awesome. Very nice. Great rooms. Huge and comfortable. -
- Stian (10/5): - It feels like home away from home
- Trudie (10/5): Loved my stay thanks - Location is perfect, nice and quiet. Hosts friendly and professional, will certainly recommend to other travelellers NONE
- Jason (9/5): - The rooms were clean, large and modern. Staff were helpful and friendly with the bonus of a braai night, on one of the nights I was there. Lovely pool, and safe secure area which was electronically gated. Great breakfast. Nothing much I didn't like.

- Daniel (8/5): Mooie schone fijne plek vlakbij Addo om te verblijven. - Kamer was mooi schoon, heel fijn en behulpzaam personeel (konden zelf vragen om een wasje, wat helemaal gestreken en heerlijk ruikend werd teruggeven tegen een kleine vergoeding). Het zwembad was ook heel welkom in de hete zomerdagen. Fijne accommodatie dichtbij Addo. Ontbijt optioneel, Charmaine maakt heerlijke gevulde omeletten.
Heerlijk en gezellig ontbijt/lunch/diner plekje Nadorah vlakbij.
- Bester (9/5): Brilliant - Nice place to stay
- Andreas (9/5): - Wir waren Anfang November 2025 für eine Nacht im Lemon 3 Lodge, das zentral zum Stadtzentrum und ca. 40 Min. vom Addo Main Entrance entfernt liegt.
Der Empfang war sehr herzlich. Wir hatten ein sehr großes, sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Zimmer mit Bad und Klimaanlage. Der große Pool hat zum Baden eingeladen.
Empfehlenswert ist auch das Frühstück, das gegen einen kleinen Aufpreis frisch von Charmaine zubereitet wurde.
Insgesamtcsehr zu empfehlen! Einen kleinen Wermutstropfen gab es: das Wasser in der Dusche lief nur mäßig und wurde kaum warm (vgl. frühere Rezension).
- Meindert (10/5): -
- susan (9/5): -
- Robert (8/5): -
- Lindsay (10/5): -
- Trevor (10/5): enjoyable time and filled our expectations as Kirkwood may not be a main tourist location - Very helpful staff -- very good breakfast
Good location just outside Kirkwood -- easy to find and a few minutes drive into the town of Kirkwood
- Tersia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Graham (10/5): Shantall was a great hoast and really enjoyed her hospitality and hard a nice breakfast - Rooms were great clean and spacious will definitely stay again when in the area Nothing
- Anselm (10/5): Exceptional -
- Thomas (10/5): Great place to stay. Comfortable, clean and peaceful - Rooms very comfortable. Quiet and secluded. Really great host.
- Harry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Chiara (4/5): Disappointing - The water didn’t drain out of the shower.
- Izabela (10/5): Amazing! - The host was very helpful and kind to us! The place is like in the photos, the room has plenty space and very comfortable. The breakfast is delicious!
- Lucie (10/5): Exceptional - Me and my family stayed for 5 nights. The accommodation was excellent, the staff was like a family to us. They made us the best egg omelettes for breakfast every day. Oh it was really a wonderful experience. The pool was crystal clear and the air-con was a life saviour.
- Francesca (10/5): Highly recommended - Charmaine welcomed and supported us in our every need. The facility was beautiful, especially the huge, beautiful and comfortable room and bathroom.
- Marise (5/5): Passable - The room was quite spacious and the swimming pool was a winner. The picture needs to be updated, the place doesn't look the same at all.
Especially the outdoor side, it definitely needs some attention and some shade.
- Pierre (5/5): Not for solo travellers.. - It had decent beds and a shower.
Probably more for groups or families No toiletries, no mirror, no coffee, no breakfast included (no self catering either), noisy with others around as everything is around the pool, aircon old and no longer makes “cold”, no shaded parking or trees so all out in the open. I only stayed one of my two booked nights. Under new management but so is the rooms (under renovation). Other options in the area are much more value for money… expensive for what you get. Will not return
- Jivika (10/5): Exceptional -
- Charlene (6/5): Kirkwood gem - Charmaine is a wonderfully helpful host! The place is new and beautifully styled.
- Zoleka (10/5): Perfect hideaway place - Secured , comfortable and nice facilities Neat and secure
- Abigail (9/5): Superb -
