Het dit baie geniet en alles wat jy nodig het, is daar.

Dit is baie netjies en laat mens sommer tuis voel. Sal dit beslis aanbeveel en enige tyd weer daar oornag.

Excellent service - outstanding venue. Will be back.

Stay was excellent, close to the airport and beach was an added bonus. From the welcome greeting to the entire stay was pleasant, enjoyable, private and beautiful. Facilities were outstanding, rooms were clean and very satisfying. Really enjoyed the stay. Even walked up to the shops and it was safe and secure.

Comfortable and enjoyable stay!

My stay at Alcyone was extremely comfortable and easy! They have really thought of everything you might need during your stay and are quick to respond to any needs. The area is quiet and close to the ocean and Boardwalk Mall, which is super convenient! I would happily recommend Alcyone to friends and family, and will definitely stay there again.

Ok, everything is central.

The stay was ok, but except for the smoking in front of the rooms. Blinds must be put in at the shower room window as it is not covered while people shower.

There were Panado tabs and Eno as well as a welcome refreshment and something sweet with coffee. Towels were super clean as well as bedding.

Relaxing and fun at the same time.

We stayed at Alcyone for a week and it has been a wonderful experience throughout the duration. From the booking process to the warm welcome at arrival by the hosts. The only challenge I had was to decide whether to go to the beach daily or not, because it's just a walk away. And it's definitely my home again the next time I visit PE.

Greg received us kindly and made sure we had everything we needed for the 3 days. The rooms were large and comfortable with a fully equipped kitchen. Thanks to Greg and family, we hope to see you again.

Uitstekend!

Die plek was baie netjies met alles wat jy aan kan dink om te gebruik in'n self-sorg eenheid. Die eienaars was ook baie vriendelik en het uit hulle pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel.

Veilig, netjies en skoon selfhelp-verblyf.

Die veilige, netjies en skoon Addo-eenheid is stapafstand van die see. Die kombuis is goed ingerig. Ons het ook heerlik gebraai. Die koue bier en melk in die yskas met ons aankoms laat jou dadelik tuis en spesiaal voel. Tot die badkamer is goed toegerus met alles en nog wat. Selfs Panado-tablette en Eno. Ons was vriendelik ontvang deur Elmarie en Johan. Greg en Rosalie die eienaars gaan uit hul pad om jou te akkomodeer en als gerieflik te maak. Dit was werklik vir ons heerlik en sal graag weer by jul tuisgaan.

The safe, neat and clean Addo unit is walking distance from the sea. The kitchen is well equipped. We also had a great barbecue. The cold beer and milk in the fridge upon our arrival makes you feel at home and special. Even the bathroom is well equipped with everything and anything else. Even Panado tablets and Eno. We were kindly received by Elmarie and Johan. Greg and Rosalie the owners go out of their way to accommodate you and make everything comfortable. It was truly wonderful for us and we would love to stay with you again.

Lekker gekuier in 'n rustige omgewing.

Dit is 'n nuwe gastehuis maar is reeds toegerus met beter en meer geriewe as wat normaalweg in 'n gastehuis in hierdie prysklas gevind word. Daar is 'n koninggrootte-bed in 'n besondere ruim kamer met 'n gerieflike badkamer. Alle kombuistoerusting is daar om self vir jou 'n ete voor te berei. Daar is 'n mirkogolfoond, 'n gewone konveksie-oond, melk en koue water in die yskas en selfs 2 biere! Verder is dar 'n boks tissues, koekies en beskuit - alles om 'n mens te verras. Alles en nog meer wat 'n reisiger verlang. Dit is ook naby genoeg aan die see en uitstekende waarde vir geld! Die eienaars het ons ook kom groet voor ons vertrek het. Julle is sterre!

Have a good time in a peaceful environment.

It is a new guest house but is already equipped with better and more facilities than are normally found in a guest house in this price range. There is a king-size bed in a particularly spacious room with a comfortable bathroom. All kitchen equipment is there to prepare a meal for yourself. There is a micro wave oven, a regular convection oven, milk and cold water in the fridge and even 2 beers! Furthermore, there is a box of tissues, cookies and biscuits - everything to surprise someone. Everything and more that a traveler desires. It's also close enough to the sea and excellent value for money! The owners also came to greet us before we left. You are stars!

Gerieflik en ruim met als wat ons nodig gehad het vir ons selfsorgverblyf.

Hoogs aanbeveel en veilig. Naby die strand, maar vir ons was dit te ver om te stap. Ek is seker in hoogseisoen sal dit gepas wees. Baie restaurante en winkels in die omgewing. Motor staan op 'n erf omhein met mure en 'n elektriese hek - veilig. Die eienaar was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en het ons op hoogte gehou met die loadshedding. Sal beslis weer daar bly as ons PE toe gaan.

Comfortable and spacious with everything we needed for our self-catering stay.

Highly recommended and safe. Close to the beach, but for us it was too far to walk. I'm sure in high season it will be appropriate. Many restaurants and shops in the area. Car stands on a plot fenced with walls and an electric gate - safe. The owner was very friendly and helpful and kept us informed about the loadshedding. Will definitely stay there again if we go to PE.

Waarde vir geld, alles wat jy benodig teen 'n bekostigbare prys.

Alle geriewe wat jy kan benodig. Babette was baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig selfs as eiendomsagent met ons ylingse soeke na verblyf vir ons studentkinders. Nader blyplek aan Nelson Mandela Universiteit kan jy seker nie kry nie. Baie goed geleë vir ouers en studente wat van elders kom registreer ens. Alcyone se verblyfeenhede kan aanmekaar skakel vir groter groepe maar is steeds individueel volledig selfversorgend.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Value for money, everything you need at an affordable price.

All amenities you could need. Babette was very friendly and helpful even as a real estate agent with our urgent search for accommodation for our student children. You probably can't find accommodation closer to Nelson Mandela University. Very well located for parents and students coming from elsewhere to register etc. Alcyone's accommodation units can be linked together for larger groups but are still individually fully self-sufficient.

Goeie waarde vir geld. Vriendelike gasvrou.

Drie volwassenes en 2 kinders gemaklik gepas in 2 aansluitende kamers, met aparte yskaste en volledig toegeruste kombuis. Ek wou nie 'n fortuin betaal nie, maar nie enige van die essensiële prysgee om 'n gehalte-vakansie met familie te hê nie, en Alcyone was perfek vir ons in daardie opsig en naby genoeg aan die see ook. Ek is baie tevrede. Het die vakansie baie geniet. Barbette was ook warm, behulpsaam en vriendelik altyd.

Good value for money. Friendly hostess.

Three adults and 2 children fit comfortably in 2 connecting rooms, with separate fridges and fully equipped kitchen. I didn't want to pay a fortune but didn't want to give up any of the essentials to have a quality holiday with family, and Alcyone was perfect for us in that respect and close enough to the sea too. I am very satisfied. Enjoyed the holiday very much. Barbette was also always warm, helpful and friendly.

Meer as wat ons verwag het en 'n heerlike tyd gehad.

Alcyone is baie goed geleë. Naby alles, winkels, brandstof, strand, die hele strandfront tot by Sea View is 'n paar meter weg. Bekostigbaar, skoon en veilig. Sommer bitter lekker gebly. Dankie Babette.

Thank you, Babette for your hospitality during our stay at Alcyone. The fact that you came out to meet and welcome us when we arrived and then the added touch of receiving a Christmas gift was really appreciated. The room was comfortable and was equipped with all that we needed for our stay. The location is good, close to the beach and grocery stores.

Alcyone is die beste waarde vir geld. Die kamers is baie gerieflik ingerig. Babette was so vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die ligging is wonderlik - naby die universiteit se Noordkampus, die strand en winkelsentrums.

Pragtig, skoon en gerieflik.

Ons is baie hartlik verwelkom en vergesel na 'n baie ruim, netjiese en skoon gesinskamer. Goed toegeruste kombuis voorsien in alle behoeftes. Veiligheid is goed. Ons het drie baie gemaklike dae daar spandeer. Daar is selfs hout in die braai vir ons voorsien. Voorwaar 'n plekkie wat ons weer sal bespreek. Baie dankie, Babette!

Sal aanbeveel aan ons vriende wat beplan om PE te besoek en dit is nie te ver van Boardwalk kompleks nie, so heel gerieflik om by Alcyone te bly as jy vir 'n wegbreek in die omgewing wil wees. Tot ons weer kom kuier. Toodles.

A good place for a long term stay.

We stayed at Alcyone for 33 days. We hadn't heard about the guesthouse before and ordered it on line. We were made very welcome by the hosts, and they looked after us the whole time. We liked the backyard very much - it was separated from the hosts' private garden, so we felt it was private too. We had a rental car and we had our own parking space at Alcyone. The guesthouse is just 15 minutes' walk from the Nelson Mandela Metropolitan University. The street has lots of traffic during daytime, but we didn't see it as a problem. We recommend Alcyone.
