This was a beautiful retreat for Us with 2kids who loved the ability to walk the river bed collect shells,sticks as well as bird and crab spot. The apartment is beautiful laid out with great attention to detail. Jenny and her team were very accommodating and made us feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. We visit family in East London and this will defo be our usual spot going forward.

JudyRating, 5 stars1 week 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.

LucrichaRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Beautiful home with a stunning ocean view. We loved the private beach and big yard for the kids to play. Mark was very helpful with my questions and their home was prepared for the unexpected loadshedding. The road leading to the home is in a bad state. If you have a lower car like ours it was a bit difficult to drive on.

Absolutely gorgeous beach house, enjoyed the open plan living and the easy flow to the pool area. The rooms were large and comfortable and the bathrooms were spacious and sparklingly clean. Couldn’t have asked for a more perfect holiday home.

We had an amazing time at Kerryn’s home. We felt so safe and couldn’t get over the stunning river view - managed to spot so many bird species from the balcony. The house had everything we needed and the pool was nice and sheltered when the wind picked up. I especially appreciated Kerryn’s excellent communication and willingness to help us move the beds around to suit our sick relative. Thanks so much for a special stay.

JanetRating, 5 stars2 months ago
Lovely , relaxing holiday home ! Easy walk to the beach and the swimming pool was fantastic ! Very clean ! Would recommend ! The only down side was when we arrived it was pointed out that the back door couldn’t be closed or locked ! Although a secure complex, we felt very insecure , especially at night and we also had to take our valuables with us when we left the house for any time ! Should have been fixed before our arrival !

JohnRating, 5 stars3 months ago
Bronwen, we had an amazing stay at your Airbnb place. We would recommend this place to anyone visiting the Eastern Cape, long or short holiday stay, large or small groups. The hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating and helpful with any requests we had. A two minute walk from the beach. We loved sitting on the huge deck with a stunning view of the ocean. Thanks again for a memorable weekend at your beach house. We will be back!
