Jungle Monkey Backpackers

So disappointed right now we at your place and we are told it's fully booked after we have booked and your receptionist called to confirm if we are coming and we say yes but when we arrived we are told it's fully booked now we are stuck in PSJ, your service is so disappointing worse we are not from here.....sorted after a stressful hasle

Place needs some work and a good clean up . Also very noisy until late at night

If you're looking for a good backpackers then look elsewhere. Jungle Monkey has become the local drinking hole and can't be called a backpackers any longer. Do not stay here, the dorms and kitchens are run down and borderline a health hazard. I must say the private room area on the other side of the property is much better than the dorm/bar area. I can't really blame them though, the whole of Port st Johns has become run down and all the tourist attractions no longer exist. Give this whole area a miss

Loved the vibe and the food, especially the pizza, it was so good. The room we stayed in for the night had too many creepy-crawlies for my liking but if that's your type of thing then you'll definitely enjoy the stay.

Their food has always been the best. I didn’t book their rooms. I would highly recommend their food.

Spectacular place to visit with friends and family. The place has therapeutic scenery from the balcony and serene music. You can pass time while waiting to be served by playing pool or taking pictures around and of the place It would be helpful if the staff would be more informative instead of giving basic answers and not pick on customers based on how often they visit the place if they need to be served. Be mindful of the children playing in the pool incase you do not want to catch any splashes

Place is beautiful and cozy but the service is a bit shaky. I ordered many times and realized that they won't inform you about a missing ingredient they will rather substitute that item with something else even if you allergic to it

Great place to stay. Friday eve was very noisy till 1pm but then what can one expect during Christmas holiday season. Rooms at the back of the complex much quieter. Love the variety of rooms on offers. Privet rooms + dorms. Price very reasonable. Owner Pappa G and staff all very accommodating. Recommended.
