Beautiful place with good facilities. Camped wonderfully for one night on the way to Addo. On the drive in we saw beautiful giraffes. Very friendly service and beautiful place. Definitely recommend it.

Pragtige plek met goeie geriewe. Heerlik gekamp vir een nag oppad Addo toe. Met die inry het ons pragtige kameelperde gesien. Baie vriendelike diens en pragtige plek. Beveel dit beslis aan.

Perfect escape in proximity to PE. Hubby and I booked a night away for New Year's Eve, just to have a time-out from kids and visitors. We arrived, had a swift check-in and went straight to our Honeymoon suite. We were happy to find a fridge now in the room (it wasn't listed on their website) as we had some ice to keep in the little freezer to enjoy a few glasses of whisky on the stoep. Thanks to the welcoming bottle of bubbly and treats! The restaurant closed at 14h00, but we were advised of this before arrival, so we brought our own snacks along. They also allowed us to check in an hour early so we could order takeaways if we wanted to from the restaurant on site. The room was spotless and had everything we needed. The view out of the huge sliding door and windows is beautiful and just draws you out into the surrounding bush and grass. We could see some ostriches and small buck grazing below. It rained through the night and we were wonderfully cozy on our king-size bed, being lazy and watching series on the free WiFi. I would only recommend that they have firelighters and matches alongside the fireplace should somebody wish to use it when it is colder. The next morning we had our included breakfast at the restaurant (R100 allowance per person) - we couldn't even finish it as it was very filling! We then took a drive through the fynbos valley to the viewpoint at the end - beautiful and plenty of bokkies around! All in all, a wonderful stay!

Comfortable, fun, beautiful views. Our stay was wonderful. The only issue we were not super satisfied with was that the accommodation was not cleaned very well. We ended up cleaning up a bit before settling, which was disappointing as we arrived when the cleaning staff were just leaving. We were not given any complimentary goodies which are displayed in the photos, and our towels were not folded nicely, just hung on the hooks. Not a major issue, but worth mentioning.

Not a good stay. Pabala Private Nature Reserve is a beautiful place with amazing views. First off, the place was not perfectly clean. We had to wash any kitchen items we used, especially cutlery, even items taken out of the cupboards. Secondly, we had problems using water as they only use Jojo tanks and their pump was faulty. Taking a shower was frustrating. My husband was shown by their staff how to manually switch the pump on when it switched off, which happened every 2 minutes. There was also a pipe leaking under the kitchen sink. They did offer us free breakfast and a small game drive to compensate for our bad experience.

Natural beauty at its best. A little gem just outside Port Elizabeth, great for a quick getaway. The suites are clean and comfy. The fireplace works amazingly. There are stacks of game to see right from your door. The camp area also looks great for bigger groups. The meals at the restaurant were very very good.

Well appointed with very spacious rooms. Immediately felt very at home. Nicolene really spoiled us with the most delicious breakfast every morning. It was a real getaway with a great rest. Each room had its own bathroom, actually a bath hall. Would definitely recommend the place.

Goed ingerig met baie ruim kamers. Het dadelik baie tuis gevoel. Nicolene het ons behoorlik bederf met die lekkerste ontbyt elke oggend. Dit was 'n regte wegbreek met 'n heerlike rus. Elke kamer het sy eie badkamer, eintlik badsaal gehad. Sal beslis die plek aanbeveel.

Loved every minute of it. Definitely want to go back and stay for longer. We also met amazing people during our stay and the restaurant at the top is absolutely awesome, with nice food. The Pabala staff and owner are very friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed our stay there.
