Lovely stay by

Lovely stay, accommodation very comfortable and warm welcoming hosts.


Lovely tranquil place by

I really enjoyed my stay at The Nightjar. The hosts are very welcoming and, once settled in, unobtrusive. The flat is well appointed- ideal for a couple. The bathroom was an unexpected surprise! The Sundays River is a tranquil place during the week were you you feel all the daily stress leave your body. Definitely recommended!


Breakfast on the terrace overlooking the Sundays River by

Lovely decor and bright rooms with modern facilities and lovely bathroom. So close to Southern Gate of the Addo and overlooking the wild and beautiful sand dunes. Owner really kind and welcoming. Patio area with braai was great. Thank you for an unforgettable stay!


Good location on the river bank by

Spacious accommodation, but the 2nd bedroom is in fact part of the living room and kitchen, so not private. The apartment is also on the same property as the owner's house, so not completely private.

Establishment Response:

I have only recently opened up my private area, being the walk through for the guests to utalise the Stoop section, where they can enjoy a panaramic view of the Sundays River. Which was never used by guests before, as they have/ had their own entrance to the river.

This is perhaps where the not so private comment comes from, as it is a walk through from the guests living area, straight through my private area, onto the stoop. As before this section is/was always cordoned off with a set of stack doors and blinds, which then allows the guests complete privacy.

What I always suggest to the guests is that they may chose, if they want complete privacy, then I close the stack doors with blinds, so giving them their private entrance to the river. In other words it is their choice, or they may walk straight through my section onto the stoop. The door is always unlocked for them to come in if they want to. I do always ask if guests want the blinds drawn to be private or not. Riana i did give you the choice. There is a table and 4 chairs on the stoop where guests can enjoy their meals/drinks.

The kitchenette is attached to the 2nd bedroom, which then leads out 2 sets of glass doors, into the living area, which is totally seperate from the kitchenette and 2nd bedroom. It is not attached to the 2nd bedroom. This living area consists of an undercover jetmaster bri, with an undercover spacious furnished living area, which also includes a diningroom table with 4 chairs.

I do apologise if you felt there was no privacy.
