Lanterfanter in Boknes

JohnRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Best location in Boknes which in itself is a fantastic Eastern Cape seaside gem. The house was comfortable and clean with everything we needed. It is an old house with rustic decor which makes the setting overlooking the lagoon more authentic. Everything we needed was in the house. Welcoming chocolates on the beds. Clear instruction on how to find and get in. Good security with response from security company within minutes of accidentally setting off the easily programable alarm system for nighttime peace of mind. Good quality wifi and full DSTV package. Excellent value. Certainly hope to stay here again in the future.

Rugged coastal cliffs frame a serene beach scene, with gentle waves lapping at the shore. Smooth, sandy areas lead to rocky outcrops, revealing the texture of the land. The sky is a vibrant blue, scattered with wispy clouds that contrast with the warm tones of the sand.

Little piece of paradise

LizelleRating, 5 stars1 month ago

This stay exceeded our expectations! The home is even more beautiful than the photos—especially the newly renovated kitchen, which is fully equipped and stunning. It had everything we needed, including a dishwasher and washing machine. There are 3 bedrooms; just note you walk through the 2nd to get to the connected 3rd bedroom, and they share a bathroom. It wasn’t an issue for us, but worth mentioning. The undercover patio/braai area was perfect for relaxing, even in bad weather. The well-behaved dogs were a lovely bonus—one liked hanging out with us on the patio, adding a homely touch. The town is peaceful, the beaches are fantastic. We loved the 14km Cannon Trail hike (7km back along the beach). The Diaz Cross hike was another highlight—bring proper shoes. Don’t miss the Quin Sculpture Garden in Alexandria and ask them about a lovely forest trail back to Cannon Rocks from there, worth the drive. Roes serves great food. Highly recommended—we’d absolutely stay again!

A patio area is observed, featuring white outdoor furniture with blue striped cushions. A glass table sits in the center, surrounded by a grassy garden with lush greenery. Behind the patio, trees and a wooden fence add to the serene setting.
