Most beautiful stay!

This place was EVERYTHING!!! would stay here again in a heartbeat amazing staff amazing amenities beautiful view!!! Clear skies, this was my favorite part about South Africa. As far as the road we took a super small car up with no issues would’ve opted for something with bigger tires though. STAY HERE!!!

A perfect stay

Such a beautiful lodge! We stayed in the luxury tent - which was perfect. The staff were all so helpful and friendly which makes the experience even better. Highly recommend. A real treat.

Surprise Jewel on the Mountain

We had the most marvelous stay at the Fig Tree. It far surpassed our expectations as it was not adequately described or explained in information available on the web. Staff was outstanding and a delight to be around; always gracious and helpful. We hope to return to the Fig Tree if ever back in South Africa. A must stay when visiting Addo National Park.

Worth it!

What a treat! The drive to the camp was a little frighting with rolling hills on either side of the road, but once we reached the lodge, it was totally worth it! They have truly captured the beauty of the Eastern Cape with views to die for! Whether you are sipping a cocktail at the pool or escaping to read in a comfortable lounge area on the side of the mountain en route to your room, you are guaranteed to have a wonderful rest. The Tented camps are worth paying for especially with the bath overlooking the mountains. The food was top class and the service levels were outstanding, nothing was an issue for the tea!

Great choice

I was sceptical but from start to finish it was great. The friendliness of management and staff commendable. If I have the opportunity I will return. My only suggestion is to include dinner in the rate even if the rate is pushed up a bit. You don't have any alternatives for dinner so I find it a bit weird to have a "forced" extra charge. Dinner was great though. Thanks

Not sure about this one

I really wanted to like Camp Figtree because when I called to tell them that I won't be able to make the game drive which I have scheduled in the afternoon, they immediately knew who I was and I didn't even need to make an introduction! However, I can't say we had the best experience, and it was perhaps circumstantial because we arrived late at night and it took us a long time to drive through. The drive was very unpleasant because the entrance is small, dark (with no lights) and very rough. Our white car was completely trashed every time we drive through. We even saw wild Kudu's and monkeys through their narrow drive - and when you're a foreigner driving at night and see wild animals, its not exactly the "safari" experience you're looking for. Even after we arrive it was pitch dark (it gets dark after 6pm) in which I'd suggest the Camp (and I know they want to save electricity) but to welcome their guests with some light in the parking lot and the reception so we are not completely walking in the dark. We stayed at the tents - the rooms were quite nice but that night we were faced with a massive storm and it was so rainy and windy we couldn't sleep in fear of our tent crashing down on us. I know that won't happen - but I know other guests requested to be moved into the room the next day. Not sure if I'd go back again to be honest but I do like the food and the restaurant staff was great.

Lodge in the hills near Addo

If you're prepared to drive up a winding unmade road then this place is for you. Stunning views, total tranquility, excellent service, food and wine. The owners have created an Edwardian Hill Lodge with immense character down to the finest detail. You feel like you're back in the early part of the 20th Century. The staff are very warm and helpful. It's a half hour drive from the entrance to Addo but this wasn't a problem as we had hired a 4 x 4. Not an absolute requirement but advisable. A perfect place to get away from it all and have amazing wildlife close by.

Tolle Unterkunft in Mitten der Natur. Ein tolles Restaurant mit wirklich sehr gutem Essen und Personal. Die Zimmer (Zelte) sind sehr süß und bieten alles was man braucht. Man muss aber beachten, dass es kein Hotelzimmer ist, sondern ein Zelt. Es war ein schönes Abenteuer und wir konnten viel Energie tanken. Die geführten Safaris zum Addo Elephant Park waren ebenfalls schön, die Reisedauer beträgt ca. 30 Minuten. Wir empfehlen ein großes Auto für die Anfahrt mit Allradantrieb, da die Strecke sehr uneben und nicht asphaltiert ist.

2 tolle Nächte über Weihnachten (24-26.12.24)

Wir hatten 2 wunderbare Nächte im Camp Figtree über Weihnachten. Das gesamte Personal war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Das Zelt eine tolle Glamping Erfahrung. Der Blick aus dem Bett und der Dusche auf die Zuurberge war einmalig. Das Bett war ein Traum. Das Essen war ebenfalls durchgehend gut, egal ob Dinner oder Frühstück. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt und die Terrasse mit dem Pool empfehlenswert. Die Tagessafari in den Addo war gut organisiert und das Mittagessen (Braai) war ebenfalls sehr gut. Sollten wir nochmal in den Addo fahren wollen, wäre das Camp unsere erste Wahl, wir würden wieder kommen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.
