Fodor's Expert Review Tsitsikamma Backpackers

54 Formosa St., Storms River, Eastern Cape, 6308, South Africa

This small, tidy hostel is quieter than most, so it's a good place to stay if you're on a budget and the lovely garden has great mountain views where you can even sleep in a safari tent. If you don't feel like making use of the communal kitchens, you can book meals (continental breakfast and dinner only) in advance. You can rent bicycles, shoot pool, and use the barbecue facilities.
