Property Description

Ahh!. Time to relax! The warmth of the suns rays on a browning skin, the soft whispering of the wind in the trees or the crackle of fire in the hearth as the rain falls gently.

Surrounded by the fantastic mountains and forested gorges of the Tsitsikamma, this gem of an establishment is situated in the quaint Storms River Village. The first of its kind, the cozy little Tube 'n Axe Backpackers Lodge boasts a range of comfortable and affordable accommodation with inviting double rooms, an elevated bush camp, large dorm beds and plenty of secluded camp sites.

The Lodge offers a full al le Carte menu.

A vibey African bush style entertainment and bar area equipped with big screen satellite TV, pool table, table soccer and bungee chords for those about to jump, will ensure that nights and sports afternoons are action-packed!

Star Gazers can nestle up in a quiet garden hammock while the gumboots kick up the African dust around the bonfire pit.

Friendly staff will point you in the right direction as you prepare to take on the Storms River Adventure Tubing, World's Highest Bungee, Waterfall Zip Slides, Canopy Tours, Snorkeling, Mountain Biking and a host of other fantastic adventures that the Tsitsikamma has to offer.

Pros: - Good atmosphere with live music. - Great facilities to hang out (pool, big areas, bar, restaurant, etc) - Help arranging transport to tsitsikamma. Cons: - Only one toilet and two showers for 14 people in the dorm. - No outlets to charge the phone (or others) next to the bed in the dorm. - In fact, there were barely some outlets in the dorm for 14 people. - Not the best food at the restaurant (it is still ok). - Equipment needed it is not included when they mention the tubing price (which is mandatory to have)...this feels a bit of a scam.

not a social place, I would definitely not recommend this hostel for solo travelers. The kitchen is far away and poorly equipped (~120m) and the food was not good, rather go out for dinner.
