Beach House - Low Tide

ThandoRating, 5 stars1 month ago
I had a wonderful stay at this place! It was peaceful, quiet, and just a short walk from the beach, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The home had everything I needed and truly felt like a home away from home. If you're looking for a calm escape in East London, this is definitely a spot I’d recommend. Looking forward to coming back!

Vintage revamped Glamping seaside stay(10)

DevinRating, 5 stars4 months ago
We loved our stay in unit 10. The accommodation was perfect, great sized beds, open kitchen with all that we needed. Lovely shower and bath with water that was always hot. A 3 min walk to the beach - that felt private and safe. Jannie was a fantastic host, caring, and super responsive to us- made the stay even more enjoyable. Great activities and play areas for kids as well. Never a dull moment. Will be back very soon. One of the best places we have stayed at.

Agapantha Room on the Mcantsi River

JudyRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Linda welcomed us in the dark with a delicious homemade lasagne and Greek salad prepared for our dinner. We enjoyed an early morning walk along a grassy river path to the beach. Linda's place had everything we needed after a long drive. Tidy, comfortable, quiet, tea & coffee with rusks, bottled water ... even a washing machine! Thanks Linda and Rhett, we'd love to come and visit longer next time.

Arbor Ease-5 Bedroom Family Home & Spacious Garden

HildeRating, 5 stars41 months ago
We had a wonderful stay in the house, in spite of bad weather and closed beaches. Suburban area quiet with very little traffic.The garden was even bigger than we thought, as was theTV -screen and swimming pool. Lovely kitchen with lots of quality pots and pans. Two upstairs bedrooms extremely hot, aircons provided as a necessity. The house is close to the most delicious Spargs I have ever encountered. The curry place around the corner is also commendable. Bonza Bay beach close to the house is beautiful, but quite neglected and according to some (local)warnings, not so safe either. Nahoon beach on other side of river about a 15 min drive away. Warrick is an excellent host with great communication. One small thing - for a three week stay one would expect clean bedding every week- as it was we had to pay the (lovely)cleaning lady and she even started preparing the house for their return while we were hiring her. But this is a minor- thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.

The place was amazing, spectacular views and the room was spacious, charming, and well-equipped. It was very relaxing and nice that we decided to extend our stay, luckily the room was still available. The beach is a short walk away. Fezie, the housekeeper is also very accommodating and responsive. Sally is also very flexibe with the check-in and check-out. We felt right at home. Highly recommended, hoping to come back again soon.

Beach Break B&B 'Starboard'

SvenjaRating, 5 stars6 months ago
I was lucky enough to stay at this incredible BnB for over seven months, and it truly felt like home. The host Liam was exceptional—always welcoming, attentive, ensuring everything was just right and his willingness to always assist with adventure ideas or even take you himself. The space was cozy and thoughtfully designed, with all the amenities you could need for a long stay. One of the highlights was the phenomenal view, which I never got tired of, and the beach was just the perfect walking distance away—close enough to enjoy daily but far enough for a peaceful retreat. The combination of a stunning location, comfortable living, and the hosts’ charisma made my stay unforgettable. I highly recommend this BnB to anyone, whether for a short visit or an extended stay. It’s a rare gem, and I’ll always cherish my time here!

The Beach Shack / On Gonubie Main Beach!

JacoRating, 5 stars5 months ago
We really enjoyed the stay, the house was great and we were right on the beach. The only down side was that other holidy makeres whould come to the public parking area at night and play their loud music. Although the sexurity guards mostly helped to quiet them down, it was still a gegative point. Apart from the above our stay was nice. Mason and Yolande were great hosts, so friendly and acessible, always ready to help and walk the extra mile. We even joined then and their church on Christmas day and it was a great service. Thanks for a great holiday
