Not only did we see dolphins in the water at this superb spot, we also saw and enjoyed the company of Elaine, a brilliant and most hospitable host who offered us a huge glass of wine on arrival. Our room was very spacious, comfortable and clean, with a large balcony area overlooking the water. We would thoroughly recommend a stay... More

I chose this guest house to stay in the night before my wedding. It was so peaceful and beautiful and was exactly what was needed after a stressful week of wedding finalizations. Elaine was an amazing host. Before myself and my wedding party arrived, Elaine contacted me and offerred to pick up some groceries from the store for us -... More

The best feature of this guesthouse is definitely its location - with the ocean view rooms you can literally watch the dolphins out of your window! But even without dolphins it's truly the view one can dream of waking up with. Elaine was very nice not just to describe the surroundings and the best places to go to, but also... More

After reading all the reviews of this guesthouse on Trip Advisor I could not wait to stay at Dolphins View Guesthouse. I booked our accommodation in mid November 2012 for February 2013 as it seemed to be the top choice of establishment in the area. Four days before our arrival, I confirmed with the Guesthouse our 2 night stay and... More

What a slice of heaven! I did not want to leave! This has to be the ultimate ocean view! Elaine was an absolute treasure and bent over backwards to please. The Suite was perfect for us with everything you could want. We love self catering so we made every minute count. Our balcony and seating was perfect with many relaxing... More

Very nice and welcoming room, with kitchenette. Beautiful view of the beach at less then 50 meters. The host turned out to be a charming lady of scottisch descendance. We had asked for supper and were not disappointed. It was plenty and excellent. Spiced by some terrific tales from the landlady, and the Glenlivet after supper. Highly recommendable. Paul &... More

I have just returned to Scotland following a fabulous week staying at Dolphins View Guest House. My room (apartment 1) was spotless, spacious and beautifully decorated with the added personal touch of a teddy bear on my bed. The room, complete with it's own large balcony, bathroom, kitchen and living area, had a stunning view of the Indian ocean and,... More

The guesthouse is placed in a wondeful village outside of Port Elisabeth - quiet and direct at the oceanside. A sand beach 25km long is close to the b+b. The name is well done - we have seen more than 50 dolphins from our room! The rooms are very clean and Elaine gives you from the very first minute the... More
