About Ferry Point Cottages

Ferry Point Resort has the BEST LOCATION in Port st Johns. It is one of the longest family owned/managed establishments on the Wild Coast and we really enjoy meeting new people. We overlook the mighty Umzimvubu River Mouth and Long Beach and offer rustic but very clean and spacious Self-Catering Chalets. We provide night guards for our guests’ peace of mind. Ferry Point Resort offers guests Chalets that can accommodate between three and eight guests. WE ARE GREEN! Our main energy source is Solar power with gas appliances. That is, two plate gas stoves, gas fridge/freezers and whistle stove top kettle. No microwaves are provided to suit our low energy usage.The units offer comfortable double or single beds and private bathrooms. We provide white linen as bedding but guests need to bring their own towels. The kitchens are equipped with all the necessary cutlery, crockery, cooking utensils. Each unit also has a private braai area and own parking. There are no TVs. There is daily housekeeping. Locals frequently come to your Chalet selling crayfish, muscles, oysters and fish. Each Chalet offers stunning views of the river, sea, lighthouse, mountains and the night lights of the town across the river. Daily housekeeping is provided.The motorized ferry boat whips you across the river into town in minutes so you do not have to drive to peruse shops and restaurants, at a very cheap fee. There is much to do especially if you are an outdoorsy person....hiking, fishing (which is good throughout the year), mountain biking, sightseeing, mudcaves, waterfalls, whale and dolphin watching, bird watching (over 250 bird species), collecting driftwood and eating out. Long beach, on our doorstep literally, is very safe for walking, fishing or collecting driftwood.We look forward to making you a part of our family!

Beach: Long Beach and the river mouth are excellent for fishing, strolling and inviting for one who loves unspoiled peacefulness.

Family friendly: They can enjoy hiking, guided tours and fishing off the river bank, surf or rocks. We are also situated perfectly for mountain bike riding.

Romantic: Ferry Point is a perfect honeymoon spot. It offers magnificent views of the mouth, lighthouse and mountains.

Sandy is a very sweet, friendly host but the cottages were really not what I expected. They need a lot of work and are really shabby

This is a lovely place to spend a few quiet days. The cottages are rustic and have fine views over the river and sea. Very nice and friendly hosts who are willing to help in any way. Also enjoyed a few beers at the lively bar.

A little run down and a wicked dirt road, BUT a wonderful view of the sea and listening to the waves was worth it.

I cannot remember the last time I relaxed this much! Ferry Point Cottages is not just a holiday destination, it's a place that becomes part of you and you become part of the family. Never before have I had such amazing hosts. We spent 6 days in this special place, but we have made friends for life! We will be going back there for our honeymoon in July! Can't wait! The accommodation is as down to earth and real as the owners and staff members. For a memorable experience in a rustic setting that blends in with nature, this is the place to be! Just be prepared to be sad when you have to leave!
