I will be back!
We had stayed in the Storm River houses and had a wonderful experience. Especially my kinds enjoy the dassies and beautiful surround.
We were disappointed that we could not visit the bridge because of mud slides, so we have to come back and revisit the area.
The wood buildings had a mildew smell when we opened the door. I think you must look at ventilation for the houses.
Thank you very much for the hospitality and I will definitely recommend your venue.

Amazing place
This is an amazing place that is well worth the visit. Even though it rained for most of our stay we still enjoyed it and will be back. There was some confusion with our booking but it was sorted out quickly and effeciently with no fuss. We're a family of four and booked a chalet with one bedroom and a sleeper coach in living area. When we arrived we were given a chalet with a bedroom with 2 single beds and a single bed in the living area. Fortunately there were empty chalets in the park and they easily moved us into a bigger chalet.

Storms River Mouth.
Our stay and accomodation were great.
Good location and value for money.
On-line booking was easy but could have been more specific as to options/sites available per price category.
Will book on-line in the future.
Thank you keep it up.

REST AT THE REST CAMP
We stayed 2 nights in the family cottage as a couple in the double room and 2 friend in the twin room. Basic but comfortable accommodation. Used the heater to warm it up as it was winter. It rained heavily one night and rain did seep in through the logs and around door but it didnt worry us

Amazing Storms River Rest Camp
It was our first visit to Storms River after seeing it in the Getaway Magazine in 2010. We were not disappointed! The facilities are First-Class and our campsite was a good size. I was very impressed that Laundry facilities/ communal fridge/freezers were provided and the staff were all friendly and helpful. The kids have lots of space to run around and are quite safe. The weather was not the best and we ended leaving earlier than planned but we will definitely be back.

What an amazing place to stay at!
We were lucky enough to have the only forrest hut with the sea view and we had a wonderful time staying in it. Although we didn't have time to fully explore the area I would thoroughly recommend everyone to visit.

Wonderful stay!
Tsitsikamma is a beuatiful park with great views and the waves are amazing! It was hard to make a good choice for the kind of cottage on the internet though (don´t think they are described on your website well enough) and although we had a great time, we could have had a smaller cottage with a better view if we would have known. It was also a surprise that we had to pay another amount of money for sleeping overnight in a National park. We really thought we had paid everything in advance and I do think that this should have been mentioned during the reservation! The park is great though and we had a fantastic time!

Tsitsikamma
Tsitsikamma is en bly 'n natuurwonder wat deur ons Hemelse Vader aan ons gegee is en is bewaring van die natuur seker die belangrikste aspek. Ons ondervinding is dat die natuur werklik bewaar word en komplimenteer die kampbestuur daarvoor. Die ontvangs en huisvesting is aanvaarbaar, daar is egter tekens van onvoldoende onderhoud en behoort dit aandag te geniet. Dit bly een van ons gunsteling vakansie bestemmings.

the accommodation and resort are generally well kept and in a super position with stunning views. the only thing to comment on was that we had a TV stand in our room with no TV on and cables lying around - that did not look great - i think i much rather not have a TV at all...

Interesting nature, modest accomodation
The house allocated was damp and smelly and after som lenghty telephone call the manager personally helped with another house. Still damp but less smelly. The furnishing needs some attention, run down and the bathroom was poor.

Fantastic views, large and well equipped, but the smell...
The chalet is comfortable, clean, well equipped and with terrific view over the ocean, but...
- we weren't told if breakfast was included or not (I though not, but my guide book said it was)
- the wood was treated with some paint with a terrific smell, keeping the chalet windows wide open for hours wasn't useful
- the shower is very old and doesn't invite you to wash yourself!!

Breather at Storms River Mouth
We had a breathtakingly refreshing few days in the Storms River mouth restcamp. Value for money in terms of the self-catering apartment, which offered a view overlooking the Indian ocean. Due to the architecture of the building we felt as though our balcony was almost hovering about the waves and rocks. Numerous walks are dotted around the place, everything kept clean and reasonably safe, friendly staff. We can't wait to return......definitely a little paradise!!!!!
We encountered bushbuck and a bushpig as well as dassies, whales and dolphins.

Nothing can spoil Stormsrivermouth for a local! However more attention can be given to cleanliness of the cutlery/crockery. The braai is cleaned regularly but not the ash that is blown onto the stoep railing and chairs.
The friendliness of the staff made up for it though. Thanks for a great weekend to the staff of Storms River Mouth camp.

Had a wonderful stay apart from the baboons ramsakking our chalet on the first day of arrival!! Storms River Mouth is truly a beautiful part of South Africa, such beauty!!
Just a suggestion that they should warn one verbally at Reception regarding the baboons as we had quite an experience.
Overall - outstanding, will definitely visit there again.

Storms River Mouth
We absolutely loved this place. The boardwalk was really good. The scenery stunning and the weather was great. We loved the refurbishmets - so tastefully done. It's clean and neat and the staff were very pleasant. The only negative is the wretched baboons making a nuisance of themselves and creating havoc. Not all the rubbish is picked up after they have scavenged through the place - I would have thought there would be baboon proof bins like the ones we saw along the coast.

Enjoyable Holiday
We thoroughly enjoyed the stay at Storms River. We stayed at the Dolphin side of the camp. The ablutions, although kept clean is in need of some maintenance. The sites are exquisite with breathtaking views over the sea and of course with sunset. I encountered a problem with my dome tent's poles which broke and after approaching the Technical Department they fixed it for me withing minutes. This is going the extra mile for the customer. It is also evident that all staff we encountered daily were friendly and tried their best to make our stay as nice as possible. Congratulations to the Park's Management and staff.

Over view of experience
1. Opon arrival at gate,
The entry staff were curtious and professional and very helpfull.
2.The Cottage was clean and tidy and everything was in place-no shortages.
3.The cleaning staff were punctual,friendly and completly trustworthy.
4.The only thing lacking was that they did not do dishes.People were not told this upfront.Either make it inclusive or tell people that it is not.
5.The shop is a tourist trap,a better balance could be considered.
6.The Restaurant neeeds upgrading.People who eat in Restaurants can pay.People who cannot pay,don't go.Needs re-looking at.
7.The boat tour up the River is very good,with the guide well trained and generally knowlegable.
8.Unfortunatly,the park has been designed backwards.Ie,the Chalets (which bring in the bulk of the income)are positioned behind the camping sites,so they (Who pay the most)look on to the campers,whereas the Campers have the uninterrupted sea views.
Generally a lovely experience,the nice thing is that it is affordable to the average South African.

We were on a two week holiday in SA with others who chose not to stay at Storms River Camp - as such, we were dropped off by car and had a three day stay on foot.
Whilst the area was great with some fantastic walking ( the purpose of the trip) we found the Restaurant to be terrible, and the food available from the shop was also below acceptable levels - as such we will never return
