Detailed Reviews
The host and staff quickly showed me and my two children to an impeccably clean, cozy and comfortable room in this Colchester property located a few kilometres from Addo Elephant Park South Gate. Behind the guesthouse, the view from the breakfast dining room is a long lawn hosting a family of mongoose, a variety of birds, lined by lush vegetation and framed by the estuary. Overall a very pleasant two nights spent.

Our charming and humorous host made our stay unbelievable beautiful. Only a 5 min. drive to Addo park with a great view on the River and the dunes together with a comfy place makes it a perfect location to discover the national park and the surrounding area. Not to forget the fantastic breakfast. Thank you very much for a wonderful stay. I hope we can come back someday.

We stayed at the Sundune guest house inorder to visit Addo Elephant park, which is only 1 or 2 km away. The guesthouse is located on the banks of the Sundays River therefore giving great views. We booked the Executive/Penthouse suite, which is huge and has it's own wonderful private terrace overlooking the river to drink sundowners on. Breakfast is very good too. The manager Lianne was outstanding and could not have been more helpful with her customer service & advice etc. We booked a couple of tours(safari & river cruise) through the guesthouse prior to arrival(this is important to ensure availability), which were outstanding The other major advantage of booking a safari through the guesthouse is the ability to be able to do an Addo safari in an open sided vehicle due to it being part of the same company, otherwise if you book with other safari companies they have to use closed in minibuses etc. There is also a petrol station, restaurant & Spar shop selling food, beer & wine etc a short 5 minute walk away. The ability to be able to use a swimming pool in a neighbouring guesthouse was also an added bonus. We would have no hesitation staying at the guesthouse again.

What a peaceful and welcoming stay. LeeAnn was absolutely generous and accommodating. We arrived late with no accommodation and with a call from Norman, she jumped to our rescue and made us feel at home.
We were lucky enough to share a bedroom unit with a full bathroom, off the main bedroom with a king sized bed (very comfortable) and a 3/4 bed in the intro bedroom. Everything clean and fresh. The TV , aircon and WIFI all had perfect clear instructions, if we needed to use them. And they had rechargeable lights and lamps to cater for loadshedding.
LeeAnn organised us around loadshedding and pointed out sites, the beautiful river bordering the accommodation. She is really protective over her guests and ensured we were well rested and sent off with a lovely warm brekkie. Merry Christmas Leeann and team

Great reception by the owner, who served a nice breakfast in the morning. The property is close to Addo, very convenient. At walking distance from the property also a restaurant where you can have a very good diner (ask the owner).

This guest house was very organized. Byron was a fabulous host and was a true professional. The rooms were well equipped with good quality linen, super comfortable beds, top quality fluffy towels. The breakfast was delicious, beautifully presented and the service was wonderful. Well done Sundune, you are doing all the right things to make visitors feel welcome.

Good location if you want to visit the dunes and the river mouth as well as Addo Elephant Park. We had the whole house to ourselves and the welcome from our host was very special with balloos and bubbles, since it was my birthday tour. Thanks again!!! The rooms are cozy with comfortable beds. The breakfast was "lekker" and we also got breakfast packages for the visit to Addo Elephant Park as well as for our early departure. A restaurant as well as a supermarket is just in walking distance.

The location of this very nice accommodation is ideal for trips to the Addo, Schotia and the large dunes by the river. Ilse is a wonderful hostess, super friendly and helpful, as is the entire staff. Breakfast was excellent. We really enjoyed the stay.

Fantastic rooms and hosts Leanne and Byron were extremely helpful, they made sure we were really comfortable. Lodge itself feels like home from home and beautifully decorated. Being only 4kms to south entrance of Addo Elephant park was a bonus.
