5 Sterne für ein Hotel, an dem man warmherzig empfangen und einzigartig verwöhnt wird. Alida und Mathias haben ihre Leidenschaft zum Beruf gemacht. Wer familiäre Atmosphäre mag, ist hier goldrichtig. Liebevoll gestaltete, große Zimmer. Top Hygiene, fantastisches englisches Frühstück frisch nach Wunsch zubereitet. Am Pool wurden wir mit einem guten Gläschen Wein verwöhnt. Wer ein Souvenir für die lieben Daheimgebliebenen oder sich selbst sucht, wirft einen Blick auf Mathias selbst entworfene Schmuckkollektion. Außergewöhnlich, zu günstigen Preisen. Wir lieben dieses Guesthouse und freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen.
Lugar bonito, decorado com bom gosto e capricho. Pátio com privacidade. Camas muito confortáveis, quarto amplo, pequena cozinha pratica e funcional. Café da manhã muito gostoso, o suficiente. Atendimento pelos próprios donos, aliás, é uma casa que foi transformada em "pousada". Tudo muito organizado e limpo. Destaque para a simpatia dos donos e atendimento. Adoramos. Pela localização precisa de carro pra se locomover pela cidade.
Schönes, gemütliches Gästehaus mit Pool. Saubere, geräumige Zimmer. Sehr freundliche Gastgeber mit wertvollen Tipps. Ruhige, sichere Lage. Liebevoll zubereitetes Frühstück. Nahe zum Strand und Restaurants.
Vi kom med bil och blev mycket förtjusta i Bayside guest house. En helt fantastisk liten oas, med rena fräscha rum, alla egna ingångar i små egna hus. En fin liten pool, bra parkering, gångavstånd till strandpromenad, god frukost, vänlig personal. Personligt bemötande.
Highly recommended. Would stay again if ever visiting Port Elizabeth. Quiet, clean and relaxing B&B.

Breakfast very poor cheap sliced pan no other bread. Processed cheese wrapped we call them easy singles at home. Fruit an insult tinned peaches and tinned pineapple and portion so small in a glass. Dogs poo outside our bedroom in the morning there are two dogs there one of them jumped into bed beside our son in his room. Body lotion watered down. Our first night in SA and we found it v disappointing
Great place to stay- quiet, not far from the beach. Great hospitality

Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo
La camera era molto pulita, la colazione abbondante, la posizione molto comoda.
Le idee della padrona di casa sulla situazione politica del Sudafrica non ci sono sembrate molto condivisibili...
Bem localizado, bem proximo da orla, quarto super bem cuidado, camas otimas, boa roupa de cama e banho. Cafe da manha muito bom e anfitrião super gentil.
Das Gästehaus liegt in einer gut situierten Wohngegend und ist dennoch erschwinglich.
Die Eigentümerin ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.
Das Frühstück ist sehr lecker und wird nach eigenen Wünschen zubereitet.
Das Zimmer ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und verfügt über einen Kühlschrank, einen Wasserkocher und einen Fernseher. Das Bad ist neu und die Betten sind bequem. Von der Terrasse aus blickt man auf den Pool.
Bis zur Promenade mit Restaurants und Bars sind es nur wenige Minuten zu Fuß oder mit dem Auto.
Die Anlage ist ruhig gelegen in einer Wohngegend im südlichen Summerstrand. Die Lage ist für Autofahrer ideal, nach PE sind es ca. 10 Minuten. Die Gegend ist gepflegt und sicher, der Strand ist in Gehreichweite. Das Auto wird sicher im abgesperrten Innenhof abgestellt. Die Anlage selbst wirkt gemütlich, gepflegt und hat einen familiären Charme. Die Unterkünfte sind im Bungalowstil und komfortabel groß. Die Einrichtung ist ebenfalls gepflegt und sauber. Die Eigentümer sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Als Ausflugsbasis für PE, Addo und die Strandlinie bis St. Francis optimal.
Nice calm area. The room was great with a small terass. Since we were travelling with MC we had to have a safe parking, witch we did.
Breakfast was great.
We just stayed there for a very short time but I would definitely recommend it .
Das Haus hat einen eigenen Zugang zum Strand. Nachts hört man das Meer und es hat eine besondere Atmosphäre. Wir hatten sogar eine eigene Garage für unser Auto.
