Easy, comfortable accommodation.

We had a quick stopover at 3040 on Freshwater. Our stay was very comfortable and everything we needed was in the unit. The location is great; we had easy access to local restaurants.

Ek beveel 3040 on Freshwater ten sterkste aan vir verblyf in Port Alfred.

Die gasvrou het ons hartlik verwelkom en selfs gehelp om ons (baie) bagasie na ons kamer te dra. Sy het selfs die volgende dag gekom verneem of alles in orde is en of ons enige hulp benodig. Die woonstel was skoon en netjies en baie gerieflik.

I highly recommend 3040 on Freshwater for accommodation in Port Alfred.

The hostess welcomed us warmly and even helped to carry our (lots of) luggage to our room. She even came the next day to find out if everything was okay and if we needed any help. The apartment was clean and tidy and very comfortable.

Pragtige eenheid en tuin. Sal weer wil gaan.

Ek het in die Gecko-kamer gebly, en behalwe vir die pragtige dekor is die eenheid baie netjies en prakties met alles en nog meer wat mens kan benodig. Die tuin is pragtig en skep 'n rustige, verwelkomende atmosfeer. Die gasvrou is baie behulpsaam, vriendelik en laat mens sommer tuis voel. Veilige parkeerplek. Hou in gedagte daar is 'n paar trappe om te klim na die kamer, maar dit is die moeite werd.

Beautiful unit and garden. Will want to go again.

I stayed in the Gecko room, and apart from the beautiful decor, the unit is very neat and practical with everything and more that one could need. The garden is beautiful and creates a peaceful, welcoming atmosphere. The hostess is very helpful, friendly and makes you feel right at home. Secure parking. Keep in mind there are some stairs to climb to the room, but it's worth it.

Lekker en rustig!

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Die gasvrou was uitstekend. Sy het baie moeite met ons gedoen (paaseier soektoeg vir ons 4-jarige in die tuin + 'n karretjie en grafie vir die strand vir ons seuntjie geleen). Die plek was netjies en skoon. Die kombuis het al die nodige benodigdhede. Dit is 'n knap plekkie.

Nice and quiet!

We had a very nice stay. The hostess was excellent. She made a lot of effort with us (Easter egg hunt for our 4-year-old in the garden + lent a buggy and graph for the beach for our boy). The place was neat and clean. The kitchen has all the necessary supplies. It's a nice little place.

Our host, Sunami, ensured we had a truly memorable 2-week stay at 3040 on Freshwater, and enjoyed discovering all the many assets of Port Alfred, from the beaches to the great restaurants, as well as the spectacular nearby rivers.

Our accommodation was very comfortable and in keeping with the true beach holiday expectations. The only recommendation would be to provide loungers for the apartment we were staying in to facilitate late afternoon post-beach reading in the afternoon sunshine! And to make the most of the privacy of the well-cared-for garden! This is not a criticism at all, just a suggestion!

Dit was 'n fantastiese kuier. Die huis waarin ons gebly het, was baie mooi.

Ons het meer gekry as waarvoor ons betaal het. Met aankoms was ons akkommodasie opgegradeer. Die akkommodasie is baie mooi en het alles wat 'n mens in 'n huis nodig het. Die area waarin akkommodasie geleë is, is baie rustig. Sanumi is 'n uitstekende gasvrou en baie gaaf.

Heerlike blyplek. Eenvoudig, maar voldoende.

Die kothuis was heeltemaal voldoende met alles wat mens nodig gehad het. Ons is deur die gasvrou op eg vriendelike basis verwelkom. Beurtkrag het dinge moeilik gemaak, maar dit was Eskom. Vir ouer mense soos ons sal ek nie die plek aanbeveel nie omdat daar geweldig baie trappe is om te klim, maar ek moet byvoeg dat die gasvrou helpers aangebied het om ons goed bo te kry.

Die rustigste naweek ooit!

Die idee was time-out en dit was presies wat ek gekry het! Die ligging is fantasties, dis heerlik stil met net die see wat jy hoor. Baie goed toegerus met alles wat mens nodig het. Beddegoed, handdoeke, kussings - alles wat perfek. Eenhede is ook baie privaat. Sal beslis aanbeveel en sal weer teruggaan. Die trappies/bult tot by die eenheid is lekker styf, maar mens word ingelig vooraf so dis geen verassing nie. Vat maar net 'n ietsie vir muskiete saam.

The stairs/hill to the unit is nice, but you are informed beforehand so it's not a surprise. Just take a little something for mosquitoes.

A paradise.

Wonderfully friendly hostess. Will definitely recommend it to people over 60, if alternative arrangements are made to assist with baggage. Very steep up hill to the accommodation.

Accommodation was spectacular and comfortable! Home away from home. Sanumi was an excellent host. We will definitely be back!

Accommodation was lovely, and Sanumi made sure we had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay. The Guesthouse is located close to all amenities as well as the beach. It felt like home away from home.

The place is very nice and fresh, very nice scenery.

The place was fully booked but there was no noise, the old stuff really looked nice though, the gas part for the geyser. Water was lukewarm. The owner and the manager very friendly and tend to all our needs.

Sanumi, jy is 'n uitstekend gasvrou. Dankie vir die skoon verblyf. Julle tuin is onbeskryflik netjies en mooi! Ons was jammer om weg te gaan. Het elke dag daar geniet en kan jou gasteverblyf aanbeveel.

Net wat ons nodig gehad het, net te kort.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Ons is baie vriendelik verwelkom deur die gasvrou en is selfs gratis opgegradeer na 'n groter eenheid wat baie lekker was, veral met 'n tweejarige. Ons het in Rusty Hook gebly, die eenheid was baie mooi, skoon en netjies en het alles wat mens benodig. Die strand is lekker naby so mens kan sommer loop as jy wil. Ons het besluit om die laaste aand hul tuisgemaakte pizzas uit te probeer en sal dit sterk aanbeveel, dis vreeslik lekker!

Just what we needed, just too short.

We had a very nice stay. We were welcomed very kindly by the hostess and were even upgraded for free to a larger unit which was very nice, especially with a two year old. We stayed in Rusty Hook, the unit was very nice, clean and tidy and had everything you need. The beach is nice and close so you can just walk if you want. We decided to try out their homemade pizzas on the last night and would highly recommend it, it's delicious!

Large group

House is conveniently close to the beach, approximately 2.3 km from the swimming beach.

House very neat and clean. Kitchen equipped with all essentials. Missing a decent barbecue, but that's understandable since it's a wooden house. Parking a bit of a challenge if group has more than two vehicles.

Delighfully quiet and comfortable.

Lovely cottage, hidden away from the bustle yet only a two minute walk to a beautiful beach. The cottage had a private splash pool surrounded by lush green foliage and mature trees. The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed. Definitely going back again!

We loved our stay at this quirky, authentic place!

We stayed at Gecko Cove and really enjoyed this place. It is authentic, rather quirky and close to the beach. Moreover, if you decide to accept the option for a dinner, you can be sure you get a fantastic dinner. The table was even laid for us, so we could dig in straight after our walk on the beach. Walking distance to the beach - what else do you want?
