The house was designed to be able to operate as a bed and breakfast with the upstairs section of 150 square metres being utilised as two en-suite bedrooms. Each bedroom has its own private patio leading off the room and overlooking the waterways of the marina. In addition, guests can enjoy the large communal upstairs bar / pool table / TV corner and undercover patio with a barbecue. Downstairs is our living area, together with our two dogs - a Miniature Schnauzer and a Labrador. We are completely separate and our guests enjoy their total privacy unless there is anything at all that is needed and we're then just a knock on the door away.

Detailed Reviews

We spent two nights in this cozy B&B set on the river in Port Owen.
Our room was big, with a wardrobe room and a big bathroom, the view on the river was lovely.
The B&B is located on Admiral Island, a private island, so it’s very safe and it is in a good location to reach the main attractions around. The Charlie’s Brewery is very close and you can walk there for dinner.
Breakfast is lekker and rich and is served on the patio overlooking the river.
Kevin is a very nice host, always available and keen to know about you and the country you are from. It was a pleasure to meet him and to have some chats together

Kevin was a wonderful host and our accommodation was spacious, well appointed and very comfortable. The shared dining / kitchenette area upstairs was more than adequate for our needs.
Thanks Kevin for the great suggestion for a restaurant as it was everything you said it would be.
Le Marina is well positioned on a gated/security controlled island, walking distance to restaurants and to safely stroll the area. The view overlooking the river from the balconies is really nice, quiet and relaxing.
Many thanks Kevin - we will see you again.

Wow home away from home.
Peaceful and calm with beautiful views. If you like walking then you can walk around the Admiral Island and view the various yachts and houses.
Our highlight was a cruise in the Thumper.
Breakfast is amazing and delicious And the hosts Niki and Kevin are such awesome people. I highly recommend this place.

Chose this B&B thanks to trip advisor and I am so glad we did. Kevin and Nikki are superb warm welcoming and such a lovely home. I would highly recommend this to anyone whether it's just for one night or a couple of nights. You won't regret it! Also an opportunity to see the Cape Komorant birds as they flock home in the evening for approximately 2hrs about 200 000 birds such an amazing experience.

Fantastic quiet and peaceful location. Nice size rooms and large en suite bathroom, fantastic breakfast. Niki and Kevin are great host and welcome you into there home. We stayed for 3 nights and each night were welcomed onto their patio for drinks overlooking the waterways around the property. They also had a small boat which they took us out in around the area where we saw some great birds and wildlife. Great area for walking along the beach and nature reserves.

We stayed four nights in that wonderful B&B end of September. Thank you sooo much Kevin&Nikki for your kindness, hospitality, practical advice und lots of good food. Regret that the storm didn`t allow to take the dumper for a sunset cruise - we will save this for the next visit!!! The barbecue was really delicious, we also loved the bird watching and the kayaking, especially the flight of the black cormorans, unbelievable!
Nothing was to much to give some support to us and tipps what to do and where to go. We loved the stay with you and will definitely be back in 2020 with our friends. Lots of hugs, we have been at home, Thomas & Birgit, Erfurt
