You won’t find the B&B on the strip, or with big illuminated signs. And it’s all the better for it.
From the moment the gate slides closed and you slip into the shaded tranquility of this quiet unassuming b&b it’s peace and shade ease your troubles.
You are greeted by Jackie the dog and the owner who guides you through the property and points out things of interest.
The room is splendid, large and airy with an equally huge bathroom that has both bath and shower.
Outside the pool provides option to cool off and the path leads through the trees to the huge beach and the sea.
Later you will be lulled to sleep by the waves breaking on the shore.
In the morning there is an amazing breakfast with plenty of choice and lovely food.
Overall, fabulous place to spend time and unwind.

Amazing stay in very tranquil and peaceful Paradise Beach. What an amazing place to sit back and just enjoy your family time. The ambience and the surroundings just blows your mind.
If you looking to just get away and just spend quality time with your loved ones then this is the place to be.

The magical allure of this beach that I visit frequently, is that it does not aim at the ice cream set, nor the jetset. It is all about nature and its inaccesibility to the lazy, instamatic satisfaction hordes.
A very good reason to go, as you will not find these obnoxious crowds here. If you do not love nature or the serene quiet, please stay away. Do not spoil the enchantment of this untouched place. Do not lament the lack of development. The planet is full of ugly developments that aim at awful cookie cutter formulas inviting destructive tourists. So-called development is an irreversible Cul De Sac. Natures takes millions of years. Man ruins this in months.
A very special place for evolved, introspective adults, who need to reconnect with their souls without screaming children, backfiring Harley Davidsons or ghetto blasters.
Thankfully the roads here are shocking, which ensure that the enigma of a magnificent beach stretching 15 kilometres and hundreds of metres in width remains intact. Take note, zero infrastructure, so please stay away, unless you are spiritually trying to connect with yourself.
Early morning, you may well be rewarded with dolphins playing in the waves.
You may even be lucky enough, not to encounter any other humans!

I was lured to Jeffrey's bay on the promise of totally amazing shelling. I may have arrived at the wrong time of the year, the wrong time of the day or just been plain unlucky, but I didn't find "amazing" shells. Don't get me wrong, I did find a good selection of cone shells,limpets, large periwinkles and some local Bullias and Tritons plus about a million mussel shells. The shelling at Paradise beach was better than at Dolphin beach, but it was also much quieter and the waves were spectacular. We could only imagine what it is like during the surfing season. All in all, it was a lovely way to spend a couple of hours on a windy February afternoon.

I'm biased because I own property in Paradise and lived there for 20 years. Its has one of the best beaches in the world, but it is never crowded. I have played with dolphins in the breakers and seen buck on the beach. Its one of the most crime-free sea-side resorts in Africa.
BUT don't visit until after September 2013 because major work is being done on the access road across the Aston Bay lagoon and at the moment you may find you have to go by the dirt road which can be very treaturous after rain.

This is the beach if you're not a surfer and want pristine nature, a wide golden beach with almost no one on it!

Paradise Beach is an idyllic place. Kms of long, unspoiled beach, - just nature pure.
Its a quite beautiful place, no shops, no restaurants, no coffee shops, nobody selling you anything; just you and the beach - and the surf - and nobody else, - apart from the occasional fisherman or jogger. It's a place to sit and swim, take in the view and be at peace with yourself.
Its never too hot, there's always a breeze, but there is also the sun and you'll definately need a strong suncream and a hat unless you take some shade with you.
You can walk for miles, look for shells, swim and paddle in the rockpools at low tide. Be careful at high tide, there is often a strong surf and there are undercurrents, so be cautious.
Its a great place for a braii or a picnic, but please take your rubbish with you to keep it the Paradise that it is.

Went in December 2021. The beaches were closed due to the local restrictions. However, the beach is away from the cente of Jefferys Bay. Persons with fishing licences were allowed on the beach.
We took advantage of this and went for long walks on the beach which has soft sand and great waves.

A magnificent beach strip with beautiful rug-like white sand, tranquil waves and amazing collection of shells and stones to take home as a souvenir. Its real beauty however lies in how undiscovered it is! It was almost private!
Access to the beach is not easy as its only accessible from both ends, but it was certainly worth it! Do make it a point to walk like halfway before you set you picnic to ensure best sand quality and cleanest water.
Even seaweed there is of a beautiful purple color!
I took a walk to the other (slightly more popular) side...just fabulous!

My husband and I visited Paridise beach during our two week garden route holliday. We stayed at Moya Manzi beach House. Although the weather was bad. We were still able to enjoy an unforgettable sunrise one morning.
