Top Kariega Hotel Reviews

Garden Court Kings Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable and clean. Handy to have the restaurant attached to the hotel."

Radisson Blu Hotel, Port Elizabeth

8/10 Good

"Good breakfast, close proximity to a shopping centre (within walking distance), great view of the beach. The blackout curtains however don't close all the way, and shower door doesn't close all the way so there's water everywhere after you shower. But overall clean and friendly staff."

Camp Figtree

10/10 Excellent

"Camp Figtree was absolutely wonderful - stunning location, wonderful lodgings, fabulous food, and the loveliest people...It's a very special place and we felt a real pang when it was time to leave. Everything was managed smoothly throughout with fab communication from Karin who arranged transfers and safari days for us (and was very patient with assorted queries!) before we even arrived. All the team we met were fantastically welcoming...to name a few, Wicky (excellent driving and conversation), Carla, Noma, Simba...and Troy who ensured we had a brilliant day on safari in Addo Elephant Park. The restaurant staff and chef were fab (I'm running out of adjectives!), and the housekeeping team were friendly and uber-efficient. Lots of thoughtful touches throughout - hot waterbottles in bed, biscuits and fudge in the room, thermos flasks outside our door for early morning tea, a goody bag of fresh fruit and homemade crisps for the journey when we left. In short, we absolutely loved it and wish we could live there!"

The Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"This hotel is broadly very good. I was staying in one of its better rooms and everything in the room was pretty good. The staff were excellent, the breakfast is good and the Ginger Restaurant was a real treat. My only criticisms are 1) that there seems to be an issue with their hot water which means it is tinted yellow and sometimes produces sediment. This is only an issue really if you want to take a bath, but given PE and South Africa do have major water supply issues, this isn't the end of the world as the shower was good. Otherwise, the WiFi wasn't strong enough to connect to my rooms smart TV, meaning I couldn't watch Netflix etc without using my phones hotspot. Again, fairly minor. I would happily stay again."

Hitgeheim Country Lodge & Eco Reserve

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful stay at Hitgeheim Country Lodge. The road in is a little rough, but as it is an eco reserve, that is to be expected and part of the experience. The reward is the wildlife along the way, and we were lucky enough to encounter some zebras. We chose a room with a private pool, which was absolutely beautiful and made our stay feel extra special. We loved the port provided and enjoyed a delicious Taste of South Africa dinner in the restaurant. A lovely final touch was having our car washed on departure."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Kariega?

The best area to stay in Kariega is within the private game reserves themselves, specifically the areas surrounding the lodges within Kariega Game Reserve.

Staying within the reserve offers an unparalleled wildlife experience, as you're directly immersed in the natural environment. Lodges are strategically located to provide excellent views of the bushveld and often overlook waterholes or river systems, attracting animals close by. This setup ensures convenience, as all game drives, meals, and activities are coordinated from your accommodation.

For couples seeking a romantic and secluded getaway, the more intimate lodges within Kariega Game Reserve are an excellent choice. These lodges often feature private decks, outdoor showers, and personalized service, allowing for a tranquil experience amidst nature. The focus here is on relaxation and shared wildlife encounters without the need to travel far.

Families will find that many lodges in Kariega are well-suited to their needs, offering facilities and activities designed for all ages. These lodges often have larger suites or interconnected rooms, swimming pools, and dedicated children's programs, ensuring both adventure and comfort for younger guests.

When is the best time to go to Kariega?

The best time to go to Kariega is during the dry season, which runs from May to September, or during the shoulder seasons of April and October.

During the dry season, the vegetation is sparser, making it easier to spot wildlife, and animals tend to congregate around water sources. The weather is generally mild and sunny, with cooler evenings, which is comfortable for safari activities. This period is especially good for couples seeking an optimal wildlife viewing experience without the intense heat or rain.

The shoulder seasons of April and October offer a good balance. You'll find pleasant weather, fewer crowds than the peak dry season, and still excellent opportunities for wildlife encounters. April brings lush landscapes after the summer rains, and October sees the landscape beginning to dry out, both offering unique photographic opportunities.
