I really had a wonderful stay. The staff kept everything wonderfully clean, left all our valuables out and were all there when returning. I would recommend it to anyone that would like a holiday in PE. My respect to the staff and owner.
Enjoyed our stay.

Very Good Stay!
Myles Ritchie, South Africa - Wednesday, 07 October 2015

I stayed in 5, 3rd for 4 days last week. The rooms are simple but comfortable, all equipped with fully stocked kitchenette and good TV. Excellent value for money, spotless (and serviced daily) and very friendly owners. If you want a no nonsense cheap but comfortable stay in PE - highly recommended!

Comfortable Accommodation at affordable prices
Llewellyn - Wednesday, 07 October 2015

Relaxing home away from home
Christiane - Saturday, 03 October 2015
Thanks to the friendly staff I had a wonderful steady and it really felt like home away from home. The peace and quiet we just what I needed and the location is perfect for getting around town. The airports proximity did not bother me at all and is very convenient for non local visitors. I will be staying here again!
Close to the airport
lee gilad, Israel - Monday, 26 January 2015
The best choice close to the airport. They excepted us at 23:00 with warm hospitality!
rodney grove, South Africa - Sunday, 28 December 2014
My wife, daughter and I stayed for 3 nights. The room was clean and very pleasant. 2 minute walk from the airport, but no noise at all, which we were very surprised by. The 5 minute drive to the beach was perfect.

Mr Botha - Friday, 22 August 2014
This is a reasonable priced guest house that I would make use of again and recommend to others.
Steven Sutherland, South Africa - Monday, 04 August 2014
Everything was comfortable. Small details are important and in this day and age of convenience one would expect decent coffee /plunger and fresh milk and not cheap coffee and creamer Some rusks or biscuits would have also added a nice touch. it doesnt cost much, but makes a difference
Redelijke accommodatie (reasonable accommodation)
Mr van den Hombergh - Monday, 09 June 2014
De kamer was redelijk. Je kunt er zelfs een maaltijd klaarmaken. De gastvrouw was niet erg gastvrij en interesseerde zich nauwelijks voor ons. Het ontbijt is niet inbegrepen. Toen we haar vroegen om een ontbijt waarvoor dus extra moet worden betaald, adviseerde ze ons om naar een restaurant aan de kunst te gaan.
Dat was een prima advies!
WIm en Anja vd Hombergh

(Rooms For Africa translated)
Reasonable accommodation
The room was reasonable. You can even prepare a meal. The hostess very welcoming and interested in us. Breakfast is not included. When we asked her for breakfast, they advised us to go to a restaurant on the coast.
That was a great advice!
Thank you
Mrs Groom - Wednesday, 19 March 2014
We had a great stay. This is a guesthouse I will make use of again and let others know about.

Happy stay
Mr Biggs - Sunday, 01 December 2013
I enjoyed my stay. On arrival I was made to feel welcome and was quickly signed in. The room was clean and had everything I needed. I was given the code to login to the wireless network but never succeeded. Some problem which I did not bother to pursue but it would have been nice. I had a lot of studying to do so appreciated the fact that I was left alone to do whatever I needed to do. There were other guests but they did not disturb. I would use the establishment again

I had great stay. The guest house is conviniently located to everything. We had a great time, the service was absolutely amazing and the place is so clean and comfortable. We had our own private space and it felt like home.
Slightly disappointed
monica mwale, South Africa - Monday, 04 February 2013
We were rushed as we vacated the room by 10:05am. It was like we had delayed our departure. The maid was already in the room and taking the linen at 10am!
The best of the best! SNQA - Merissa
Lani Allers, South Africa - Tuesday, 20 November 2012
We would like to thank you for the most peaceful, enjoyable stay anyone could ask for. A perfect balance between a hearty welcome and too much interference. Strict rules ensure harmony among all guests. Clean rooms and equipment. My mom is suffering from aggressive cancer and she was quite comfortable. Thank you once again!
Great value for money

Mrs Smith - Monday, 16 January 2012
Felt very much at home in the clean and spacious room and chilling off in the sparkling pool at the end of a very long day was just great. Thank you for being so accommodating when we needed to store luggage. We will definitely be back again.

Neatly presented apartment that has a homely feeling.
Nice, clean and quiet
Mrs Ottervanger - Friday, 23 December 2011
5 Third Ave Guest House is one of the cleanest guest houses I have used in a long time. The rooms by the pool are fantastic: the room is spacious and well equipped. The bathroom/shower is a bit small. The host really does a great job ensuring good housekeeping and keeping the guests quiet after 22:00 - Much appreciated and will visit again.
The best in PE
Francois van der Walt, Tanzania - Tuesday, 08 November 2011
I travel a lot and 5 Third Avenue was really one of the best guest houses I stayed in. It has friendly staff, neat clean rooms and great service. Thanks.

5th Third Avenue Guest House
Mary-Anne - Thursday, 10 March 2011
I love staying here when I visit PE on business. It is clean, clean, clean and very comfortable. Roz is very friendly, yet professional. You enjoy privacy and have a small kitchenette which is handy if you prefer sorting out your meals and breakfast yourself. (There is a restaurant next door and others very close by).

Well done!
Port Elizabeth stay
Mr Brown - Wednesday, 03 November 2010
The room was fully equipped, and very clean and for a self-catering establishment. The price is good. I will stay again in future.
No Frills Value for Money
Mr Meaker-Dewing - Sunday, 10 October 2010
The double rooms around the pool are excellent value for money with comfortable beds, a small kitchenette and a tiny bathroom. Small touches like soap in the showers were missing but everything was clean and neat.
The family unit was very cramped with seriously creaky doors, older furnishings and some mould in the shower. As there is no bath it isnt actually suitable for a family with young children.
The Guest House was easy to find, centrally located and it was overall a good stay.
5 Third Avenue
Richard Laing, South Africa - Wednesday, 06 October 2010
Staying at the place was very nice and I will make use of it if I have to go to PE again. The only negative comment is that the bathroom of my room was very small.

Jakkie Schutte, South Africa - Tuesday, 05 October 2010
Thank you, especially, for the transport to the airport, deadly on time.

PE - A pleasure
Mrs Midgley - Monday, 30 August 2010
It was an absolute pleasure staying at the guesthouse. We would definitely come back! A calm peaceful atmosphere and friendly faces to welcome you all, made for a very pleasant stay.
Great little braai area was completely suitable for our group.
Looking for the best place to stay in Port Elizabeth
Ms Hougaard - Thursday, 19 August 2010
My partner and i stayed at 5th Third Avenue Guest house in Port Elizabeth, what a wonderful surprise it was to be met and greeted in such a warm way on arrival, something rarely experienced elsewhere. We were escorted to our room which was a picture of cleanliness, white duvets, towels and a chocolate as well!! Many thanx we will surely stay there again and also recommend to others to do the same.
A pleasant stay
Mr Campos - Friday, 16 July 2010
The place is very clean and safe. Great location for visitors and 5 minutes walk from P.E. airport. The breakfast is deliciousss!! I hope I can go again....Thank you!!!
Convenient and clean
Mr Istel - Monday, 05 July 2010
We stayed a solitary night at 5 Third Avenue Guest House in a simple clean room into which an extra bed had been placed (we were a party of three). The room was clean and comfortable. There was plenty of hot water, and we all slept well. It seems most of the rooms are arranged around the pool and it resembles a small, tidy, attractive motel. The location is not picturesque, however, but its perfect for the business person needing something close to the airport. The airport is literally within walking distance, which I imagined might be a problem, however there was no noise from planes. We didnt try the pool, but it looked relaxing, and the owner, Rochelle, generously accepted a load of dirty laundry we needed clean. Overall, we were happy to have found this guesthouse and were very satisfied. Next time, I might even spring for two rooms.
Great place
Mr Ecclefield - Thursday, 01 July 2010
It is a quiet, fully furnished place, and very close to the airport.
Great
Lyn Hardie, South Africa - Wednesday, 26 May 2010
Everything was great, but it would have been better for us if the fridge had been switched on and cold for our arrival, other than that no complaints at all
A very brief stay
Mr Randall - Thursday, 29 April 2010
I needed a bed for the night close to Port Elizabeth Airport and this location was excellent. There was no problem finding the place and the reception was warm and friendly. The pool and design was interesting though I had no time to indulge!

Accomodation was clean and comfortable.
Affordable, relaxing, clean guest house
Mr Smith - Monday, 15 March 2010
The rooms are spacious and very clean. A pleasure to stay after a long day.
Excellent 2 Night Stay.
Mr Stokes - Monday, 08 March 2010
Very good value for money! Easy to find after a long flight, clean and tidy with lovely pool & braai area. Would definitely use again.
Enjoyable
Rabin Maharajh, South Africa - Tuesday, 02 March 2010
Very good accommodation / facilities
Location was great - close to airport
Reut Ksantini, Israel - Saturday, 23 January 2010
We arrived at the 5 Third Avenue Guest House late in the evening (~21:30) after a flight from Johannesburg and left early in the morning (~8:00). The guest house location was great for us since it was close to airport (5 min) and we still didn't hear any airplanes noise. The room was clean and tidy with bathroom inside. The owners were really nice and even drove us to the airport by their car in the morning without extra payment.
When you want a stress-free holiday
Moeketsi Jonas, South Africa - Monday, 11 January 2010
As we were from Joburg we found the place to be quiet, exactly what we were looking for, to cool down and take it easy in the "windy city". We really had a fab time, absolutely fabulous... Hope to go back there again i the near future....

Quick visit to Port Elizabeth
Mrs Hanekom - Monday, 23 November 2009
Positives: the room is comfortable room and clean. The hosts and staff are very friendly. They serve excellent breakfast. It was a pleasant stay.
Pleasant stop over - convenient for airport
Mr Roberts - Friday, 06 November 2009
We stayed one night at the end of a 19 day trip to South Africa from the UK. Rozelle, the owner, was very helpful in emailing detailed directions and a map so we had no trouble finding the accommodation. The room was clean, comfortable and well-equipped - and practically walking distance from PE airport. The price was very reasonable for the quality of the accommodation. The Zebra restaurant, just next door, is also very pleasant and equally good value. Recommended.
Home away from Home
Ms Downward - Monday, 26 October 2009
I recently had the privilege of staying at 5 Third Ave Guest House and was really blown away by Rozelle and her friendly efficient staff. The room was spotless, bedding & towels clean & soft, there was tea & coffee for our use. Rozelle was welcoming and clearly nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast in the morning was eaten at the poolside and was extremely delicious, home-cooked food. All in all it was a memorable & enjoyable experience. I will most certainly visit again when I am in PE.
Nice room and good location
Kim Manrai - Friday, 25 September 2009
The room was very clean and nice, and the restaurant next door (Zebra) was wonderful. The guest house was very easy to find and had great access back onto the main roads. Would certainly stay again.

Our stay at Third Avenue Guest House was so pleasant and fulfilling. I would definitely book in again if I need to visit Port Elizabeth again.
Our stay was really lovely.

It is the second time we have visited and the rooms are comfortable and impeccably clean and well maintained. We will certainly stay there again in the future.
Hi-Five for 5 Third Avenue!
Mrs Geeringh - Wednesday, 12 August 2009
My husband and I visited our grandparents in Walmer recently and stayed over at 5 Third Avenue ... what a pleasant stay! Our establishment for the weekend was very neat and clean and we could smell the fresh fragrance of the clean white linen and towels. Our room was cleaned daily and our towels were replaced with clean ones each day. The Kitchenette is very well equipped and everything is in good working condition. The Guest House is situated in a safe and quiet environment and my husband, who travels frequently to the Eastern Cape for business, would make this his permanent stay-over in future. 5 Third Avenues tariffs are also very reasonable. Thank you Rozelle and team for your hospitality and making our stay a memorable one!
No nonsense and very comfortable.
Ms Kemp - Saturday, 09 May 2009
I selected this establishment from the internet because its prices were competitive and it was near to the old part of PE. The place surpassed my expectations in its pleasant style inside the room which was tastefully decorated and not ostentatious. Outside too it was pleasant with a feel of South Africa about it. The plumbing was a bit strange, with the shower spluttering alarmingly. The cleaning was excellent and discreetly done and the management were friendly, low-key but available. At night it was wonderfully quiet despite being close to main roads. Thank you. I will recommend the place.
Cozy and Sublime

Comfortable Laxarious Guest Houst House
Ms Smile - Wednesday, 15 October 2008
5 Third Avenue Guest House is situated in a Tranquil area and is accessible to the shopping malls and other attractions.

It makes a difference with a warm Atmosphere. The excellent service makes you feel that you are very important to them, the needs are met.

The luxurious decorations that make you stress free and think about the beauty of life. The Magnificent Sparkling Swimming Pool that refreshes you just by looking and its beautiful ways.

There is nothing to criticize, even if you are a difficult customer.

Goosie - Thursday, 27 March 2008
The room was thoughtfully furnished and is truly a perfect self catering arrangement! Its calm and breezy (only when I drove past the airport did I realize that it was so close - there was no noise at all). The 5 minute drive to the airport and 10 minute drive to the boardwalk/beach makes this an ideal place. All amenities (shopping, gas, service station, and restaurant) are close by. Ill definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting PE.
Close to airport
Mr Resch - Tuesday, 11 March 2008
Very close to airport (5 mins), though not too loud. Nice rooms, nice pool, friendly host Rozelle. Would stay there again, thanks.

Mr Richardson - Tuesday, 12 February 2008
Arrived from PE with a friendly greeting and quick and efficient check in. Expectations were met and the Zebra Restaurant next door provided the food and beer that was required. With there only being a one minute drive to the airport, the location was ideal (and no - there are know problems with any residual noise from flights). I would recommend.
5th 3rd Avenue Guest House Review
Ms Marsh - Monday, 28 January 2008
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Guest House. I found Rozelle very friendly, accommodating and available (even on the sunday when I lost my key!). It was perfectly suited to my needs. The swimming pool was great as the weather was so hot during my stay! The guest house was well located with quick and easy access to the airport, beachfront and other areas of Walmer.
Really Convenient
Mr Pather - Monday, 14 January 2008
A really convenient and neat guesthouse. With most of the amenities close, it makes this guesthouse a real pleasure to re-visit again. The directions provided were really easy to locate the guest house.

Would certainly recommend this establishment to all my colleagues and persons looking for accomodation in Port Elizabeth.

Well done to the management and especially Rozelle for her kind assistance.

We had a very peaceful stay. Ruzaan is very friendly. Our room were very clean and had every thing we needed. A little clock radio would have been a bonus!
Lovely place at very reasonable price
Ms Pasquini - Tuesday, 11 December 2007
The guesthouse was comfortable and well-furnished with very good self-catering facilities. The rooms were cleaned daily to a very high standard, and the pool and braai area were above average. The location is really excellent as well, being very close to the airport (although the planes caused no disturbance) and a quick trip into Walmer, the beachfront and town, as well as the N2. Only disappointment was not being able to connect to the free Wi-Fi, although it is possible that this may have been due to our laptop.
Location, location!
Mrs Van Heerden - Monday, 10 December 2007
The location of the guest house is very central and the owner very nice and helpful. It was unfortunate that we had noisy early morning guests for neighbours but would certainly stay there again.
Pleasant Stay

Third Ave Feedback
Mrs Midgley - Monday, 29 October 2007
Accommodation was satisfactory. Whilst it was not top quality, it was more than suitable for our needs. The value for money was excellent, as it was an inexpensive part of the whole weekend. Rooms were clean and beds were very comfortable!! Location was great and the little restaurant/ pub attached was good quality and value for money. A bath in the room would have been welcome.
Our stay was most enjoyable.

Mr Moore - Saturday, 29 September 2007
We ran away from the fast pace of Johannesburg looking for peace and quietness along the sea. What we experienced at 5 Third Avenue Guest House was ultimate peace in a busy city like Port Elizabeth.

The host, Rozelle was helpful and non-intrusive. The place itself had all that we needed to set up a home away from home without breaking the piggy bank. The cost to us was far below what we had budgeted for our one week stay.

When I first saw the prices I thought the guest house was way sub-standard. But all our expectations were over-turned. Great place to take it easy in a friendly city! Wished we could have stayed longer.
Short but pleasant
ROSELYN GROENEWALD, South Africa - Wednesday, 26 September 2007
Our stay was short but pleasant. Just wish that we could spend at least another day or two.
My Stay
Ms Abrahams - Tuesday, 11 September 2007
The stay was most enjoyable. The host is very kind and helpful. I was very disappointed that the pool was in no condition to swim in seeing that it was one of the deciding factors. Overall I had a nice stay.
Value for money
Mrs Gothard - Sunday, 09 September 2007
I found my stay at this establishment really pleasant. The room was clean and comfortable. What I also valued was that there was a comfortable smoking area outside. The convenience of and adjacent restaurant makes for a convenient, care-free stay.

I would really recommend this to anyone with high standards but a limited budget.
friendly and comfortable
Mrs Powell - Tuesday, 04 September 2007
We were a little skeptical, as this lodge was very reasonable, but were pleasantly surprised, as it was comfortable, clean and the owners were friendly. They also allowed us to check out later, which was much appreciated.
Good stay
Mrs Stouman - Monday, 09 July 2007
Accommodation was excellent. The beds were very comfortable. The shower and toilet area a bit small but very neat. I really liked the idea of new clean towels every morning.

Will definately stay there again.
Accommodation
Janse van Vuuren Jaco, South Africa - Thursday, 05 July 2007
We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend and use this guesthouse again.
Home of warmth
Ms Smile - Friday, 29 June 2007
It was very nice to be in your B&B. We came on a cold day but when we got there, we received warmth without entering your rooms during the time of receiving the keys.

We enjoyed warmth because we have been cold, we appreciated light because we have been in darkness. By the same token, we experienced joy because we have known Third Avenue Guest House. People in charge of Third Avenue House are so patient. I do not know why are you still 4 star, instead of 5 star. Your B&B will be my home.
Great Accommodation
Val Wright, South Africa - Sunday, 24 June 2007
Our stay at the Guesthouse was warm and comfortable. Friendly accommodating people who went out of their way to make us comfortable and happy. Thank you. I have already recommended your guesthouse to friends who will be visiting PE next week.
Brilliant!
Ms Venter - Monday, 04 June 2007
My boyfriend and I were going through a rough patch and I just decided on the last minute to escape and save my relationship. I packed everything and him into the car and we got to 5th Third Avenue guesthouse. We were welcomed with smiles.
Needles to say our stay at 5th Third Avenue Guest House has saved my relationship as we just got to know each other all over again.Thank you and there will definitely be more visits!
5 Third Avenue Review
Mary-anne Solomons - Monday, 04 June 2007
Good place to stay and good value for money. Clean and tidy and all one needs for self catering are available. It is also close to restaurants and so makes a good stay for business visits to Port Elizabeth. Suggest that a hairdryer be made available in the room.
A wet week but warm hospitality
Ms Olivier - Tuesday, 29 May 2007
Our Group of 18 were very pleased with our choice and the hospitality shown by Edmar and Rozella was outstanding. I would rate this establishment with 4 *if they provided a full breakfast on a regular basis, to be available on their tariffs, but regardless of this we were shown 5* treatment with the terrible cold and wet weather down in P.E. the past week.

The place is private, central and on the airports doorstep. There is a great - Zebra Bistro next door that has fabulous food at a very reasonable price.

A Big thank you to 5 on 3rd Ave for all the care and looking after.
Most Enloyed!
Pieter Bredenkamp, South Africa - Monday, 21 May 2007
It was relaxing, and most affordable.
Service rating on guest house

Pleasant Stay
Mrs Swart - Tuesday, 15 May 2007
We had a very pleasant stay and felt welcomed. All the staff were very friendly and can recommend this establishment for everyone needed to stay in Port Elizabeth and wants to be close to everything.
Stay at 5 3rd avenue guesthouse
K - Monday, 23 April 2007
The guesthouse if exceptionally clean & well-maintained. Staff are friendly too. It is a good stop for an overnight stay since it is very convenient (300 m from the airport). Unfortunately this does also mean you hear the sound of the aeroplanes which may affect light sleepers. But the rooms are set around a sparkling pool, which is very restful. It is self-catering only (the kitchenettes are equipped) so make sure you bring your own supplies for breakfast.
Stay at 5 Third venue
Angela Rissik, South Africa - Monday, 16 April 2007
I had a very pleasant stay and wish to thank the owners for being so hospitable and allowing me to use their phone lines in the office and pub to do some office work. I now have a 3G card you will be pleased to know! Thanks again Angela Rissik
Prompt reply
Mrs Sander - Monday, 16 April 2007
We were only passing through, but were impressed with the prompt reply and efficient service.
The closest Guest House to PE Airport
Susan Stoltz, South Africa - Thursday, 12 April 2007
This is the ideal place to stay when having to be close to the PE Airport. Edmar and his staff are friendly and very accommodating regarding departure times. The information booklet in our unit regarding shops and things to do in the area was of a great help. Thanks to Edmar and staff!
Wow PE....
Mrs Bezuidenhout - Thursday, 12 April 2007
Upon arriving in PE I was a little sceptical about this venue. Arrived in the rain. Drove up the driveway and was welcomed by a note. Opened gate and drove up... and surprise you walk into the photograph on the web....stunning.

The rooms are warm and welcoming. The owner and staff are friendly and assist with whatever is required if not right away, as soon as was humanly possible.

The pool is clean and just the right thing on a hot afternoon.... ask the kids they enjoyed it. The braai area is extremely clean. Games room looks great. Didn’t get the chance to use it... but looks great.

My stay was really pleasant considering I have two young children who are considerably loud and busy...

I would recommend this venue to anyone looking for a great holiday experience.
Absolute value for money
Mr Weyers - Wednesday, 11 April 2007
Close to all major attractions Port Elizabeth can provide and easy access to air and road terminals or arteries. Absolute value for money self-catering room with the next-door Zebra restaurant to provide anything from breakfast, lunch or dinner at bargain prices.

A visit to this establishment is more than just an overnight sleeping place-it is a friendly home-from-home friendship experience!

Mrs van Aswegen - Thursday, 05 April 2007
Absolutely wonderful, peaceful and tranquil yet with wonderful hosts who were always willing to assist and were comfortably friendly right form the booking till the end of our stay. Spotlessly clean, comfortable and very convenient positioning. Thank you so much for your efficiency.
Five star accomodation
Mrs Botha - Monday, 02 April 2007
We want to take this opportunity and thank you for a wonderful stay that we had down at your place from the 29 March 2007 - 01 April 2007. The establishment is in immaculate condition, with everything a person would need to have a pleasant stay. The rooms are very spacious and beautifully decorated. The play room with pool table came in very handy for the children. The Guest House itself is situated near the airport, and especially in our case near the UPE. It is also situated in a beautiful and quite suburb. The friendliness that we received is more than what words can describe, and what makes this Guest house so special is the fact that the restaurant is just right next door to it. This is really great. Thank you once again. We would also make use of this opportunity to promote and tell people about your venue.
Our stay
Margie Cunnama, South Africa - Thursday, 22 March 2007
Comfortable, pleasant and convenient location
My stay at 5 Third Avenue Guest House
Ms Yiallitsis - Sunday, 18 March 2007
In a nutshell, my stay was very pleasant at an affordable price.

The staff was friendly and helpful when we needed them; however our privacy was respected, which was appreciated. The rooms and guest house grounds were clean and neat. Extra mural activities (e.g. swimming pool, pool table, braai areas, swing ball) were present at the guest house, and a detailed book of attractions in the area was available, indicating restaurants, menus and entertainment.

I would definitely stay at the Guest House again when in Port Elizabeth.
Location
Tony Martin, South Africa - Saturday, 17 March 2007
Location very convenient and had an enjoyable stay.
Nite Stay Over
Mr McNicol - Monday, 12 March 2007
The accommodation was suitable for our requirements. Sufficient for a one night stay over. Shower/toilet a bit small but fine. Arrived after seven in the evening and enjoyed the entertainment area where we had a fire going and swam.
A Home away from Home
Mr Peters - Sunday, 11 February 2007
Having the opportunity of traveling the country doing various projects, I was happy to return to Port Elizabeth and stay at 5 Third Avenue Guesthouse. The owners go out of their way to satisfy the customer at all expenses. I will definitely return to the hospitable guesthouse as I know that it’s a home - away from home.
HOME SWEET HOME
Mrs Govender - Friday, 09 February 2007
Home Sweet Home because we were so relaxed. The welcome was exellent we felt very free & not restricted in any way. I can have a five roomed guest house or just a room , what counts for me is the first impression which is the lasting impression.

The unit itself was clean & fresh everything was up to standard. The rooms are idealy situated around the entertainment area. The actual place of situation is very tranquil,peaceful though close to all amenities. This is very convenient for shopping , eating out or just relaxing on the beach.

I will definetly recommend my family & friends. Trust you keep up the excellent manner towards your guests.

Regards


Mrs Govender
Excellent short stay accomodation
Mr Ebrahim - Tuesday, 16 January 2007
A very pleasant stay in a basic but comfortable establishment. My family of 5 booked 2 rooms which was well worth the price for our short stay in Port Elizabeth.

The personal service by the owner was also appreciated.
FANTASTIC
paul singh, South Africa - Monday, 15 January 2007
Very warm Home away from home.
A comfortable stay
Mrs Saayman - Tuesday, 09 January 2007
The self catering accommodation at 5th 3rd Avenue, Walmer is really comfortable and clean. The floral smelling linen is lovely.
The beds are great and although the bathroom is a bit small, we were quite satisfied that we were getting value for money.
Our only objection was that it was very noisy, particularly with the rooms leading onto the pool. There were constantly kids playing in the pool or running around, which was not favourable on our relaxing weekend away. If you dont intend staying home during the day, this should not be an issue for you.
Exceptional service!
Mr du Plessis - Monday, 02 October 2006
Exceptional location, facilities and service!

We were made to feel at home at all times and the hosts willingness to assist our every need is much appreciated!
Home from Home
Mrs Lawrence - Friday, 15 September 2006
What a wonderful find! Jolena and her family were fabulous hosts. They made us feel so welcome; nothing was a problem. We felt we were house guests rather than paying guests.

They accommodated our two dogs and us in a superb unit away from other guests but close to all amenities.
The attention to detail and the luxury finishes in our room ensured we had a relaxed and comfortable 3 days in Bloemfontein.

We look forward to visiting them again on our next visit.
Excellent
Mr Moahloli - Wednesday, 13 September 2006
Very friendly people, warm and kind!!!!!!!!!! Thank you very much for the pleasant accommodation.
Honest, homely accomodation
Mrs Sedgwick - Wednesday, 13 September 2006
If its honest, homely, affordable, self-catering accommodation you are looking for, this is it. The rooms, while not luxurious, are clean and comfortable with a shower-on-suite. There is a swimming pool and braai/barbecue facilities for visitors. Its child friendly and close to ever thing one would want to see or do in Port Elizabeth. The owners were friendly and helpful. I would definitely stay there again and I would recommend it to anyone who is on a budget.
Excellent
Premi Moodley, South Africa - Monday, 10 July 2006

Anonymous - Tuesday, 02 May 2006
Our recent stay at the Guest House was one of the best experiences we have ever had while on judo tour. The owner was very keen and helpful and all our needs were catered for. I wish to thank you for including such wonderful places on your site, and looking forward to using your site again in the near future!
