South African National Parks (SANParks) has announced that the planned upgrades at Nyathi Rest Camp in Addo Elephant National Park have not yet been carried out. As a result, Park Management has confirmed that the camp will partially reopen for bookings from 01 September 2025. Guests who previously held reservations - whether they were reimbursed or opted to keep their credit on hold - will be notified and given the opportunity to rebook their stay.
Tucked away at the base of the Zuurberg Mountains and overlooking a scenic floodplain, Nyathi Rest Camp (meaning “buffalo” in isiXhosa) offers an exclusive wilderness experience inside one of South Africa’s most iconic conservation areas. The camp features secluded, self-catering units with distinctive thatched domes raised on stilts, designed with open-glass fronts that allow uninterrupted views of the surrounding bush - right from the comfort of your bed or even the bathroom. Each unit comes with a private splash pool, wooden deck, and braai area, creating the perfect balance of modern comfort and authentic safari atmosphere. Located just 12 km from Addo Elephant National Park's Main Rest Camp, Nyathi Rest Camp provides excellent wildlife viewing opportunities, with elephants, buffalo, kudu, and warthogs frequently visiting the nearby waterhole.
