Outstanding - this is the only word that fully described this property. Stunning location, super friendly, helpful people and spotlessly clean. We have visited during autumn/early winter and the weather was not ideal. I can just imagine how incredible it must be in summer

Amazing, Family-friendly stay!

Reviewed By X2204RVemmaj

My family and I stayed at The Lookout over the December period. We had an amazing time! The rooms really feel like a home-away-from-home, with their warm and inviting decor and little extra touches. The food was amazing, and the little ones were endlessly entertained at the pool, while the adults enjoyed a drink at the little braai and bar on site. A truly amazing visit - Angie, you are a wonderful host and we cannot thank you enough! Will definitely be coming back :)

UNSATISFACTORY

Reviewed By mdreye123018

Could not get to the property for the first night's accommodation due to circumstances out of our control and requested a cancellation, 30 minutes after the booking was made and paid but was refused. Rooms smelled and was not clean and dilapidated. Shower was dirty. Communal lounge area was just outside our room and the other guests were noisy and was listening to music.

New Year weekend brake to Port Alfred.

Reviewed By Donald_Keth

We decided to do a last minute trip to Port Alfred to spend the Weekend celebrating with family who were also renting accommodation in PA. We were very fortunate to find (the very last available!!) accommodation at Villa Vista Guest House. My first thought was that this may be dodgy, this being the only B&B still available! Jurie Wessels, the owner, was most helpful and so polite and friendly, immediately allaying any fears of this being "sub-standard". Well what a surprise on arriving at Villa Vista. There was Jurie waiting for us and ushering us into the lovely grounds of his impressive establishment. The room was really well appointed and comfortable. Everything in good working order with the usual tea and coffee supplies, but more than that, a lovely plate of Christmas mince pies and cookies. Lovely touch Jurie!! The breakfasts were really great. Fresh table with cereals, three yogurts, fruit, cheese and cold meat. Notably every morning they were freshly placed, not "left overs from yesterday". Jurie always on hand to satisfy whatever our wish was for the hot side of things. Eggs however we wanted them with the a variety of delicious side accompaniments. Coffee brilliant!! We will definitely return should our paths take us that way again. Thank you Jurie and your very friendly staff for a great stay at Villa Vista.

Great experience

Reviewed By 256elizeb

We had no booking, just showed up at their doorstep and we were handled like we were family. The room we had was spacious, neat and had an awesome view of the sea. The breakfast we were served was delicious and more than enough to cater for any taste. I would go back there any time I can and recommend this guest house to any person. They helped us to get around, as we didn't know the area at all. Great experience, would do it all over again. Thank you so much all staff of Carnoustie Guest House, we appreciate you!

Very Good 1-night stop-over

Reviewed By westonc

My wife and I and our two daughters spent 1-night as a stop-over at Villa de Mer Guesthouse. We booked a deluxe king room and a luxury twin room which were clean, spacious and comfortable. The rooms have nice modern en-suite bathrooms with showers, and the refrigerator and coffee making facilities in the rooms were very convenient. The property is in a pleasant quiet area, close to a lovely beach, and we had a locked parking garage. Magda the manageress was very friendly and helpful, including recommending Guido’s for dinner, which is a short walk away on the banks of the Kowie river, which was an excellent choice. The breakfast was tasty with a sufficient selection to choose from. Overall, we had a very good stop-over at Villa de Mer.

SUCH A GREAT STAY

Reviewed By StephenXXXXX

Stayed for one night, wished it was longer. Isabeau the most genial of Hosts, helped with great information. Our room was perfect and found everything we needed to make it a most enjoyable stay. The bed was so comfortable and we both had a great sleep. Unfortunately we could not stay for breakfast but seeing what was on offer am sure it is a great meal at The Beach House. If visiting Port Alfred then you have to stay here.
