    The room was well-equipped with central heating, a work desk, and coffee and tea making equipment.

    Nicely appointed and stunningly beautiful place with great views of garden. Competent staff and altogether a luxury experience. Quiet location right by the establishment, South Africa and basic stores, and excellent service. Also, close to the beach in a nice quiet neighborhood. Great way to end our trip.

    Nicely appointed venue with a brand-new and nicely styled room and a garden view. Friendly service and very helpful staff. Nice pool and parking on-site. Unbeatable location in a nice, quiet neighborhood with basic stores nearby. In-house restaurant on the premises, making the experience perfectly pleasant.

    The staff were super friendly and gave us great tips on where to eat in Port Elizabeth. The rooms were modern and comfy, and the bathrooms were luxurious. We even got upgraded to a room with a private pool and lounge area, which was the best! The breakfast was delicious and the pool terrace was a great place to hang out. We had so much fun exploring Humewood Golf Course and hitting balls into the beautiful green fields. And the Newton Park Swimming Pool was perfect for cooling off and having a splash. Highly recommend this place for a fun-filled vacation with friends!

    If I had to ask for one more thing, it would be for some cool nightlife options near the guesthouse. Being a group of young party-goers, we would have loved to have more options to dance and have a great time after a day of exploring.
