What a super host and the place top class everything on pint we did not want leave. The place as it is on the picture, when goknb to Port Elizabeth go there you will go wrong trus me. I definitely recommend it and will he going there again.

Beachfront apartment PE
Our family traveled down to GQ for the first timeto attend the nation baseball championships, so did not know what to expect. The area is beautiful and there are many great restaurants to visit. The apartment served us perfectly as we were only there in the evenings. The apartment is newly renovated and well set up for a couple to enjoy their stay. The 2nd bedroom is a tight fit but for a family with a small child, this room is perfect. The small attention to details is what lifts this apartment above the rest. The flexible check-in time and the warm welcome recieved on arrival was the start to a great break away.

Secure apartment on the beach!
We had a great time staying at Vanessa's place. The views are beautiful, space is clean and has everything you need. It felt pretty quiet even though it was Easter weekend which was magic. Vanessa was quick to respond and made our stay delifghtful!

Raaswater Surf Villa Apartment 1
Beautiful place with a fantastic location. If you’re a surfer - you can’t find a better location! The direct access to the beach is amazing. Communication with Tanya was great - friendly, accommodating, forthcoming and uncomplicated.

On the Rocks. Amazing Sea Views
Great views and very comfortable accommodation, centrally located to St Francis and Cape St Francis.We had a great stay and would return.

Bayview Seafront Apartment
I haven't lived in Gonubie for over 20 years. Waking up to the sun rising over the Indian Ocean was spectacular, felt like I had never left. This is a great place to stay, was like a home from home.

Salt & Serenity on Sea
One of the best AirBnBs we have ever stayed

Luxurious Ocean-View Apartment

Exquisite home on the canals - canal rd (off grid)
The Villa was large and comfortable. It was perfectly situated on the canal and had lovely spaces both in and outside to relax and play with our kids.

Directly on the Sea- Main house
We always love to book there it’s a great place and beautiful views.

Basic seaside cottage in Sedgefield
Watching the tide come in….watching it go out….so relaxing. Super weekend with baby, kids, grandparents and dog. Playing in the lagoon all day and enjoying the quiet splashes of the fish in the evenings. Thanks again Charles and Ryk

Beautiful, secure riverfront home
Beautiful place on the river. The house has everything you need and the complex has good amenities (tennis, squash, swimming pool).

Large Beach House perfect for family holiday
We absolutely loved our stay at Adele's place! The location is fantastic - our boys loved being able to pop over the road and onto the beach any time. The house is big, comfortable and had everything we needed in it. Check in was very easy and everyone was incredibly kind and helpful. We'd love to come back!

Gantry House
This was an amazing spot. Beautiful setting, close to the action and great restaurants on Thesen Island, but also far enough for a peaceful retreat. My wife and our two young daughters (4 and 6 yr old) loved the comfy and well stocked place. Lots of walks on the Island and plenty to do around the area (animal farms, vineyards, nature walks, etc). We would definitely recommend this spot and we’ll be back to Liddi’s place in the future. Wow!!

Thesen Island water lifestyle
We have spent many holidays on Thesen Islands over the years, renting multiple homes on multiple islands. We have now found the perfect home for us. What you arrive to is so much better than any description or picture and exceeded all of our expectations without exception. It's a stunning North facing location with a wonderful view up the main canal. The home is very well appointed and most notably, for us and for my wife, spotlessley clean. Also very notably we were supplied with the small things that make a big difference and give you a sense of generosity by the hosts; toilet paper, dishwasher tabs, sponges, washing powder, hand soaps etc (you'll be shocked how many home stays don't supply the small things). We are so appreciative to Ilsebe for sharing her lovely home with us. 2026 is already booked. Can't wait! The Farrells

Old belvidere, 4 bedroom house with lagoon view
Morne is a super host. The house is way more beautiful and spacious in real life. It was a really magical getaway for my family. The street lights reflecting on the water of the lake at night was one of the picturesque highlights for me. We would definitely like to stay there again in the very near future. Thank you Morné.

ON THE BEACH! Modern, secure, striking ocean views
Staying at Henda’s place was an absolute pleasure! If it were up to me I’d book Henda’s place every single time I visit Gqeberha, my kids and I loved every minute of it. Henda was also super friendly.

Blue Skies standard apartment
absolutely stunning accommodation with the most amazing view of the ocean .Can't wait to book this accommodation again for my next trip to Port Alfred

Lagoon View Apartment
A huge thank you to Peter and Chery! From the moment I arrived, I felt completely at home. The apartment is beautiful and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The highlight for me was the stunning view from the balcony — both in the morning and at sunset, it was absolutely breathtaking. The place is spotless, fully equipped, and thoughtfully maintained. Nothing was missing in the kitchen or bathroom. I truly enjoyed every moment, and if I come back, I’d love to stay here again without a doubt!

Elpizo Vista Flat
We had a fantastic stay at this accommodation! The stunning sea view was a highlight, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere throughout our visit. The location was perfect—just a short walk to the boardwalk, where we enjoyed beautiful strolls by the ocean. The beach was also easily accessible, making it an ideal spot for a getaway. Our host was incredibly responsive and helpful, ensuring we had everything we needed and truly had our best interests at heart. Their warm hospitality made our stay even more enjoyable. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a scenic and stress-free retreat which is also close enough to the city centre and major sports venues!

Romeo
We Stayed at Andrei’s place, the location and the apartment itself were amazing, perhaps even better than the pictures. The only downside I would say is the bedroom on top of the coffeeshop as it gets quite noisy from 6-7 in the morning. Other than that, definitely recommend it and will visit back again.

Sunrise Beachside Beauty
Always good to stay at Nyree place when ever we visiting PE. We always enjoy it.

Sunrise Penthouse
Beautiful apartment with spectacular views. This place is maintained to a very high standard and has everything you need. Very secure and private, and could not have asked for a more friendly and helpful host.

suite with fantastic ocean and mountain view.
