Online Reviews Summary

Fort D'Acre Reserve (ZA-0303) in Port Alfred is consistently praised by recent travelers, though it's important to clarify that ZA-0303 refers to a private game reserve and luxury lodge, not a public commercial airport with typical traveler facilities.

Overall traveler sentiment is overwhelmingly positive, with guests frequently describing their stays as perfect and unforgettable.

What Travelers Love
  • Exceptional Hospitality and Service: Guests consistently commend the friendly, warm, and professional staff and owners, noting that the service is "on point" and makes visitors feel at home.
  • Luxurious and Immaculate Accommodation: The lodge and rooms are described as being of an excellent standard, immaculately clean, comfortable, and elegantly furnished with attention to detail. Many rooms offer sweeping bush and ocean views.
  • Stunning Location and Wildlife: Travelers adore the unique setting at the mouth of the Great Fish River, offering spectacular sea and bushveld views, private beach access, and opportunities for game drives to view diverse wildlife, including buffalo and giraffe.
  • Convenient Airport Transfers: The lodge provides airport transfer services, which are appreciated by guests needing transportation to and from larger regional airports like Port Elizabeth or East London.
  • Excellent Facilities and Amenities: The lodge offers a range of well-regarded facilities including a swimming pool, braai (BBQ) areas, a restaurant, and free Wi-Fi. Free parking is also available for guests.
Common Complaints
  • Scarcity of Recent Complaints: Recent reviews are overwhelmingly positive, with very few, if any, common complaints specifically related to the lodge experience. No recent complaints were found regarding any "airport" facilities or services, as it operates as a private reserve with transfer services rather than a public airport. An older review (2012) mentioned some children being "freaked out by the number of animal heads on display", but this is an isolated and dated comment not reflecting general recent sentiment or airport operations.

Fort D'Acre Reserve offers an exceptional, highly-rated luxury lodge and safari experience, praised for its beautiful setting, top-notch hospitality, and comfortable amenities, making it a highly recommended destination for those seeking a tranquil and immersive bush-and-beach getaway.
