Jeffrey’s Bay hotels

Pros: We had an excellent stay at Stone Olive guesthouse. Janine is the sweetest host and her staff did a great job. Our luxurious room was comfortable, clean and had a nice view. The breakfast is good, especially the pancakes ☺️ We would recommend this place to everyone.

Cons: In other times, without Corona, I would give Janine a big hug for everything she did!

Pros: Room tidy and clean. Staff friendly and informative. Breakfast was as it was on the menu reasonable quality.

Cons: The location could be better however our room had a superb view.

Pros: Amazing breakfast and good location. All very clean! Room design a bit oldfashioned which you see on the pictures already though so exactly as expected and good value for the price!

Pros: Stone Olive is a wonderful guesthouse. Very well maintained, beautiful yard, rooms spacious and clean. Wonderfully decorated. Breakfast very good. Hosts very kind and helpful (helped with luggage, brought us courtesy coffee to the room). Location excellent.

Pros: Lovely location,walking distance to the beach and restaurants. Friendly staff.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Lovely property and very helpful tips for dinner were provided. Had one of our best meals based on it. Staff was kind enough to do our laundry for a small fee, which we appreciated a lot.

Cons: Property location is a bit off in a quiet living area. That we knew before, nevertheless, if you don't want to walk for a bit you need your own car or willing to use cabs.

Pros: Very clean accommodation, lovely breakfast. Tea and coffee offered on arrival which was most welcome after a long drive. Host was very helpful in recommending local restaurants. Overall we enjoyed our one night stay.

Cons: We were not given the room we had booked . We should have had luxury double room DOWNSTAIRS,we were offered an upgrade to a room upstairs which was refused as I specifically wanted a downstairs room so we ended up with a very small room downstairs. Although a change of room was offered for our second night we decided not to stay any longer and took a refund instead

Pros: Warm welcome & comfortable room

Cons: A little far from beach and restaurants

Pros: This is probably the best B & B we have ever used. The building is tastefully decorated, it has marvellous views over Jeffreys Bay, the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. All the property was also spotlessly clean.

Cons: Nothing at all

Pros: A lot of extras. Stylish design. Friendly staff. Good location.

Pros: Cosy, and good value for money. If you want a spot to chill and be close to the water and enjoy beach walks, then this is the spot!

Pros: Located right next to the beach, marshmallows in the fireplace every night, friendly staff, big library and balconies

Cons: Our balcony was accessible directly from the public beach.

Pros: Everything

Cons: There wasn’t anything

Pros: Wonderful seaview!

Pros: Location, ambience, comfort, breakfasts, fire at night...... I could go on

Cons: There are quite a long flight of open steps leading up to the front door of reception. Would be quite difficult for anyone elderly or in any way physically impaired to take cases up. And there were only female staff available so my husband would not accept their help

Pros: Everything, nothing to fault! Breakfast was excellent! All amenities carefully considered! Staff super friendly and helpful! Fireplace at night mesmerising!

Pros: Cynthia the hostess was nice and did a good breakfast

Cons: Didn’t look like the pics. We had awful weather but the balcony was overlooked by other Hotles. No plug points by the bed. In fact very few in the room at all. Didn’t like Jeffreys Bay much. We left a night early despite paying for two

Pros: Really nice chill area, big hostel, lots of people, nice bar and restaurant

Cons: Location is close but not in town and I didnt feel so secure walking around

Pros: Beach front laid back experience. Awesome friendly staff and great money for value.

Pros: Great view and spaces well divided that we don’t feel stuck like other hostels!

Cons: Maybe the fridge can be a little more new.. and less smelly! ( the one downstairs)

Pros: The private rooms (little cottages overlooking the beach) were absolutely lovely! Very quiet and away from the rest of the hostel. There was plenty of room to cook in the shared space and food available to order (although, we didn’t eat here). Very close distance to walk to the centre of town!

Cons: The music in the bar area was very loud and makes it difficult to talk to others

Pros: Clean and almost at the beach

Pros: Friendly staff, Permitted late check in, quiet location, beautiful view

Cons: Nothing

Pros: A lovely hotel with a very nice restaurant. Friendly staff and nice gardens.

Cons: Property was a short drive to any of the bars and restaurants in Jeffrey’s bay

Pros: Perfect check in. Staff is very friendly and helpful. Take a dinner as well, restaurant is great.

Pros: What a stunning place, loved everything about it, will defo be back that’s for sure. Thank you!!!

Pros: The room is spacious

Cons: The lady in the front asked me to pay the bar tab and the account for the stay separately. I did so so I paid the stay with my card and the bar tab of R48 with cash and then she told me will you be very angry with me if I tell you that I don't have R2 change for you? Then I said no it's fine because I didn't want to put up a fight over R2 but I just thought that that was unprofessional.

Pros: Great characterful building, friendly staff, personal service. Lovely room and sea view.

Cons: A slightly wider selection on the dinner menu would have been preferable - small point on the whole.

Pros: The place was absolutely stunning! The views of the beach, the lake and the river! They made the weekend so special for my husbands birthday, I can’t even put into words how amazing the staff were. The breakfast was excellent.

Cons: You can’t see it, never heard of it before! I wish we had seen it, because the place is a hidden gem!

Pros: The decor was splendid

Pros: Location is amazing right on the edge of the beach!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location is fantastic right on the beach woke up every morning to the sound of the ocean

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location was excellent. Right on the beach. Close to shops. Fire pit and braai area on the beach. Unit kept clean. UNit well equipped. Honesty bar and communal lounge with excellent views. Great staff, friendly and helpful. Staff going the extra mile!

Cons: Parking at the back of the building a bit difficult with bakkie, not enough space if some of the parking bays are occupied.

Pros: Pictures don’t do this place justice. We stayed In the honeymoon suite for Christmas while visiting friends. I wasn’t expecting to love it as much as I did. The room was fab overlooking the beach. Was lovely seating area to sit and look out at the sea and another little seating area on the balcony. I absolutely loved the honesty bar, it made me want to have a drink just for the novelty of going and getting it myself. Was far enough away from main strip to have more peace and quite but it was a short walk into that atmosphere. When going back to Jeffrey’s we will definitely book here again and book the same room also

Pros: The breakfast with the Eggs Florentine were amazing! Even superb when suddenly 50 dolphins swam by...

Pros: The rooms are really beautiful and complete with everything you need, and the location is perfect walking distance to restaurants and stores. The staff are also amazing and incredibly kind and attentive!

Pros: We had a great stay!

Pros: Place is very beautiful and peaceful also love the fact that it's close to the beach.

Cons: The were no towels in the room, no toilet paper, the stove was not working, no TV in the room also.

Pros: It’s a beautiful house over the beach. The house of your dreams. Cute dogs.

Cons: The check in was late, they told us to go for 1 hour while they prepare our room (just a small room no bathroom) and when we came back it took them another hour to finish it. It is not specified that private rooms have shared bathroom. The house is really noisy at night, you can feel every single step just as it was inside your room. The administration is also bad, really bad.

Pros: Beautiful location, comfortable and great value for money.

Cons: Difficult to identify staff from guests? No coffee or beverage station in the morning?

Pros: I upgraded to a room because the views in them were so amazing! I watched the dolphins in the morning for sunrise, the manager brought me a cup of delicious filter coffee and He was an amazing host! My holiday could not get any better than this right?

Cons: too short

Pros: Nice room white a view on the beach. It was perfect!

Pros: As we arrived, the manager was there to make sure we felt at home. He offered me coffee, and then explained how Surf Lessons work and where to eat and what else to do. All of which added to a great experience in the short time i was here. It so beautiful there that you forget where you are! Thank you Surf Lodge Team for making sure I had a great time!

Pros: Amazing location ! it is a wonderful house with incredible l view right above the ocean. the rooms are very clean and tastefully decorated. There are many spaces to chill and relax around the pool. 1 night was definitely too short . when you arrive, you never want to leave. the best accommodation in Jeffreys bay. the staff is so cool and friendly and have such sweet dogs. It is a home away from home. Thanks a lot for this great stay

Pros: Nice chilled backpackers

Pros: The place it’s garden, kitchen various common areas and terrasses is great to chill out !!!

Cons: I was said it was a great place to stay at with cool vibes!! I guess it’s just depending on people working there ... the volunteers at this time are maybe not that great :((

Pros: Thanks for accommodating a late checkout on our last day in South Africa! We had a very relaxing and pleasant stay.

Pros: The atmosphere of the place is very chill, peak surfer vibes ;) We were a couple and a friend so we had a larger private suite, which was amazing value for money, having a private bathroom and kitchinette. The common areas are nice too, with a bar, pool table, games etc.. too . Staff is nice and helpful. There are grocery and liquor stores in walking distance and a few restaurants too, although it is a couple km from the main downtown or 'surfing village'. The main beach near the surfing village is really great. The breakfast included is pretty limited but it is a self-caterying style place and the common kitchen is quite large.

Pros: This is definitely a place where you could get stuck! The atmosphere is really friendly and it has a chill vibe. Staff is super friendly and helped me with everything. I love the setup of the house, inside & outside, it makes you feel at home right away. Can't forget about the kitchen, it was rhe best and biggest one I've had in hostels so far. The location is really nice, it's not directly in the surf village, but you also don't necessarily need a car to get there as you could just walk along the beach. It's a 20-30min walk but really nice. Near the hostel are also good coffee shops and restaurants (Nina's is really good). Definitely need to come back!

Cons: Wifi was not always the best but if you don't need it it's fine.

Pros: Nice hostel to chill and surf. Very helpful and kind staff!

Pros: Very friendly staff, good facilities, cozy vibe!

Cons: Location a bit far from the surf village, but good surf beaches nearby as Well as a supermarket, laundry, etc.

Pros: In a great position. Walk to the beach and most major shops within 2mins! Staff are great and they have a fire every night for a braii. Free pool is a great way to meet new people and the 'honesty' bar is well used and controlled.

Cons: Nothing, both entrances are perfect and it's easy to find

Pros: Amazing location and lovely apartment.

Pros: The view was stunning

Cons: There was no soap in the bathroom.

Cons: It was very annoying to have people singing loud during the night whilst i wanted to sleep,they sang until 5 past 12 early morning of the Sunday 8/3/2020. I understand the infrastructure you have allows other tenants to go thru the dinning/sitting room of where we were&it kind of disturbing especially when you were not told about it(ppl going 2 the beach) Otherwise the stay was Superb.

Pros: Location

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Location is excellent: direct access to the beach and with a nice garden to relax and to listen to the sea. Cute decorated common areas (outside and inside the hotel) with nice views to the beach. Relaxed atmosphere.

Cons: Our room wasnt clean. The floor was dirty and the kitchen items didnt feel clean. The two small beds were very small and not comfortable. There was dog poop in the garden for two days and they didnt proactively clean it (they did when we asked for). There was no soap in the badroom / shower (when we asked for it, they said they just dont provide it).

Pros: My room was really comfortable with a private exit which meant I could come and go as I pleased. I loved the little terrace and spent a few happy hours sitting out there looking at the sea.

Cons: The hostess wasn’t particularly welcoming on my arrival, this was slightly unexpected and not appreciated after I had just come off a really long trip. I actually considered checking out. To be fair to her I must add that she warmed up and was nicer the next day.

Pros: Amazing breakfast! Rooms are very clean. The owners are really helpful and nice. We loved to chat with them.

Cons: Mildew in the bathroom.

Pros: best place/best value in our 2 week driving tour of s. Africa. Spacious beautiful room, easy to put your stuff everywhere, excellent bed, huge bathroom w/nice shower. Mini kitchen down the hall w/microwave, fridge (so you can have dinner on the deck instead of going out). Lucked out with a corner room with wraparound balcony w/peekaboo sea view, steps away from magnificent beach. Fantastic breakfast with good coffee (vital!). Only booked 2 nights but in hindsight, would have booked a week or 2, or more! Had to check out at 5 am to drive to port elizabeth airport and they were kind enough to leave us delicious breakfasts to go, fruit, juice, toasted egg sandwiches, all packaged up, with the cappuccino machine turned on and paper cups at the ready so we could hit the road with sustenance and caffeine (and not hangry). So appreciated that! Also, perfect location, with all amenities nearby.

Cons: There’s nothing to not like.

Pros: We had the wedding suite - absolutely fabulous! The whole house seems to be a fairy tale, the room is huge and has two balconies, one with direct view to the sea. You can walk up and down the beach for kilometers and kilometers with very few to none people. Breakfast is super delicious - so far the best we got the last two weeks during our travels. The owner gives a warm welcome and has good tips for food or any other activity. Definitely worth to come back.

Pros: Great hospitality, great hosts, amazing setting and location, wonderful breakfast.

Pros: Yes the staff was super friendly and helpful and kind, yes the breakfast was super great and the place was spotlessly clean and I can not describe the ocean view in words..... but there is something beyond those criteria about Valparaiso guesthouse. What makes it especial is the whole experience. Bernalele, the owner, is an artist and Valparaiso is an installation art. From the moment you turn into the red dusty road she takes you into a Latin American magic realism novel plot. Every room has a story, and every detail is well taught and presented. Everything is connected to eachother as if even the location, the view of the ocean and the beach are also part of the installation art you are experiencing. Even the way Bernalene personally presents and serves the breakfast everyday. I strongly recommend this place not only as a very good place to stay, but also as a unique experience which doesn't seem to happen every day.

Cons: !!!

Pros: The beautiful unique house and decor, designed and built with love by Bernalene, the owner who helped us with places to see and eat, and by the time we left, felt like a friend.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The sea view on a morning from our patio was wonderful. The architecture and decoration of the house was lovely. We were made welcome, and the breakfast was nice and varied.

Pros: The host was delightful and very friendly adding the little touches that make such accommodation homely.The property is unique in every way with design and character.Breakfast was nice and plentiful with home made breads,the property is right on the beachfront with nearby access for lovely beach walks

Cons: No air conditioning but plenty windows and doors to open in these hot nights

Pros: Breakfast was fantastic. Staff pleasant.

Cons: struggled to use Wi fi so used my own

Pros: Tasty breakfast

Cons: No backup power system, which means no water during load shedding

Pros: Breakfast was delicious. The menu was slightly limiting. But overall delicious and fulfilling

Cons: Rooms for families are a bit small.

Pros: Beautiful and was pleasantly surprised with the big rooms. You can smell the ocean and hear the waves. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the beach. Comfy bed and awesome service. Really enjoyed our stay.

Pros: The breakfast was good but there is room for broadening the menu.

Cons: Nothing.
