    Totally a beautiful gem. 5/5 Stars for THE VIEW. I spent the most incredible week at this stunning house! The views of the ocean were breathtaking, the decor was coastal perfection, and the hosts were super friendly and helpful. Literally has the perfect scenery to braai and swim. It was peaceful. It was the ultimate relaxing getaway! Can't wait to come back and do it all again! Perfect for the beach lovers, relaxation seekers, and anyone looking for a coastal escape!

    Nothing really.

    Everything!🌸 -It was clean. -Hosts were great and welcoming. -We had enough privacy and it was just peaceful. -The views from the room and patio. -The drive down the beautiful Royal Alfred Marina. -Rosehill Mall up the road and a PnPay even closer. -The area is prime and safe. -The natural light from the bathroom. -Place looks exactly like the pics.

    We enjoyed a very comfortable stay at The View. It's a lovely and well cared-for apartment, and the hosts are fantastic. We stayed two nights and spent most of our time working – the wifi connection was good. There's secure parking too, which we also appreciated. Would definitely stay again!

    The accommodation was a self catering and it was perfect for our trip. The place is stunning with amazing view on the sea. It's safe and secure with car parking and alarm system. I recommend this place to anyone who would like to visit Port Alfred just for relaxation and some good times. It's also close to the malls and freshshop garage on R72. They serve some nice take aways.

    I do not know what to say, the host's hospitality was out of this world. We are living in a country with loadshedding, but the host kept us informed on when there will loadshedding. It was my husband's birthday, my my did we not get there, and they had prepared a surprise for us. I am still emotional just thinking about how beautiful our weekend was. It lived up to the name The View.
