The host were very friendly, breakfast was great and the location is amazing. The guest house is quiet & peaceful, which is great. The first room was quite small & had a bit of a mouldy smell but host moved me to a bigger room when it became available & it was a really nice room. Overall great place to stay.

We were 4 people, each in different rooms (it was a work trip)

The staff was extremely kind and helpful.

All rooms were spacious, comfortable and very clean. There was a kettle, coffee and tea in each room.

Location was great right across the beach and a bit outside of the centre.

All in all a very nice experience. I would highly recommend it.

Dolly and I am not sure about the lady from the front desk's name were both phenomenal. I should hope that succession planning is happening in the event that either of these two ladies leave.
I think that the furniture could be a bit more improved, and bathroom done up a little more, but in saying this it was clean and immaculate.
The staff went out of their way, when I said I did not eat pork, my needs were catered. Enjoyed the breakfast set-up and great hospitality when coming in to eat.
It was pleasant, kind, friendly.

Our visit didn’t start well. We had booked an ocean view room through booking.com, unfortunately that wasn’t relayed to the owner. Within minutes I was speaking with the owner. Within 30 minutes we had a resolution that worked for both of us. Within the hour there was a knock on our door with Megan apologizing profusely and extending her hand with a bottle of wine. …absolutely not necessary. The ladies opened up the kitchen for us as we had an early tee time. The breakfast was wonderful. The breakfast are is very I voting. Due to a cycling event, most of the main roads were closed. Meghan’s significant other came and drove to the course with us following so we wouldn’t be lost. The service we received was top notch! Our room ended up being very good, not what we anticipated, but very good.

I thoroughly enjoyed staying at the Palm Beach Guesthouse. The room was very spacious, with a lovely large bed. The kitchenette was very useful, especially the mini-fridge. The décor was also aesthetically pleasing. The WiFi was stable and the internet connection was quick. The breakfast was very tasty and portions were generous.

The place is wonderful, spectacular and located in a perfect position for beautiful seaview. Evenings are romantically enjoyable from the balcony or safe 5min walk to the beach. The host is wonderful and super friendly, leading well trained staff members. A great place to be

Your service is good and employees are nice and always smiling. Next time I visit PE I would stay again in your Guest house. I will also recommend people to stay at your place when they are visiting Port Elizaberth.

Our welcome we’re what we expected. The room was stuffy with dirty carpets and uneven floor. We could not open the bathroom blinds. When I moved the kettle to boil water, a goggo was coming out. The appliances was no in good condition and it did not really suit the room. Our room was in the noisy side of the bedroom. The accommodation was not the rating worth when we made the reservation. We would not make use of this accommodation again.
