Our host was very helpful with transporting us to and from the airport, and helping with luggage. He also made a dinner booking for us.
The property needs some updating but was very comfortable and clean and in a very good location.

The host deserve a medal, he took my mother to the airport at no charge. He also ensured that they provide her her good service at the airport. We will definitely return to because of their remarkable attitude and the good customer care.

Homebase mit familiärer Atmosphäre zum Wohlfühlen
Als Teilnehmer des IRONMAN Südafrika haben wir eine ruhige, sehr gut ausgestattete und perfekt gelegene Homebase genossen. Gäste aus drei Nationen (D, S, SF), die sich vorher nicht kannten, empfanden die in kürzester Zeit entstandene familiäre Atmosphäre als einzigartig.

Family break
Even from prior to our arrival the staff were very helpful and on arrival were welcoming. Our room was clean, tidy and beautifully decorated. The guest house is perfectly located for exploring PE, close to the beach, harbour etc.

Hôtel bien situé près du bord de mer
Séjour de 3 jours, le propriétaire (William) est très attentionné et plein de bons conseils.
L'hôtel est très sécurisé ... Malheureusement la proximité de l'aéroport est un peu bruyante.

Erg leuke lodge
Goede verzorging door de gastheer William, die het probeert met maatwerk per gast en erg zijn best doet het iedereen naar de zin te maken.
Het bed was prima en de kamer met badkamer en keukentje ruim en goed ingericht.
Ook de tuin en zwembad zijn voor de gasten beschikbaar.
De hondjes van William zijn leuk en gezellig.
De lodge is prima gelegen op loopafstand van het strand en boulevard.
een aanbeveling waard.

Lalapanzi Kapregion/oberhalb von Summerset West
Eine Logde der Spitzenklasse, wunderbarer Ausblick oberhalb von Sommerset West über die False Bay..
Hervorragendes Essen, Wein aus eigener Produktion
Gerne wieder *****
Aber aufpassen beim Buchen: Expedia bucht u.U. bei der gleichnamigen Loder, die sich in Port Elizabeth befindet (kommt wohl öfter vor). Dank des beherzten Einsatzes der Gastgeber konnte das Problemgelöst werden.
