Areena Riverside Resort
Areena Riverside Resort is situated on the banks of the Kwelera tidal river, 23 km east of East London city centre, at the beginning of the Eastern Cape Wild Coast.
Areena is a place to escape the hectic world, relax and rejuvenate. It is a place to reconnect. A place to become grounded. Areena is a wholesome place, a place where family values count. A place where children can wander around in safety. A place that evokes feelings of a time gone by – A time when there were no video games, no cellphones and no high security fences. This is a place where kids and adults can learn to play again, to get outdoors and establish real life friends.

I recently brought my family, who were visiting East London from Durban, to enjoy the giraffe interaction and it was truly unforgettable. Interacting with Abby and hearing her rescue story as a baby made the experience so special, and our guide was both engaging and knowledgeable throughout. The front office team also deserves recognition. Hannah in reservations was incredibly kind and patient, answering all my questions with warmth and professionalism, which set the tone for our visit. This was a wonderful experience that left us with lasting memories, and I would absolutely love to return again. I even shared my excitement on LinkedIn to highlight the incredible work being done here. Thank you for making our visit so memorable, see you soon! ??

I enjoyed the Segway! If children can do it, so can we! We had a friendly and caring guide who showed us how to navigate and took us on a lovely tour through Areena. Highly recommended!
