Location, hosts, staff, comfort and breakfast are all worth 10 stars - I have lost count on the number of times we have stayed at The Lookout over the last 5 years - it never disappoints.

Everything was fantastic.

I really loved this place. It was actually nicer than the pictures as the living space was quite big and comfortable. They have a rainwater system that provides drinking water and the pancake breakfast was fantastic. It is very quite and peaceful, so at night it is relaxing to just gaze over the small town below.

Nothing, loved everything

This guesthouse is perfect for a romantic getaway, a selfcare getaway or even a family getaway and I would highly recommend a stay for any which one! My partner and I booked this as a stay over on our Garden Route Trip from Durban to Cape Town and after a disastrous night in Port St Johns the night before, we hit the jackpot with The Lookout Guesthouse in Port Alfred. A lot of work has been done on the property to include water with a filtration system so there is drinking water on the property as well as a water reserve so even if there is water issues in the area, the property is not affected. There is a communal fire pit to cook food and a weber (outside) as well as the kitchenette, so you have the option of braaiing outside or cooking inside. The Lookout is incredibly beautiful and has every amenity at your fingertips, it truly exceeded my expectations. We included the option of Breakfast in our booking and I'm glad we did. Breakfast was a two part meal with yoghurt, fruit and muesli followed by a hot breakfast of our choice. There were so many little things that Angela has provided that sets this guesthouse out from among the rest, including a full booklet of restaurants, their menu's, recommended taxi services, live music, monthly and yearly itinerary and all events in the area as well as all tourist services/sights and the history of Port Alfred. A more personal touch was added with some info of her precious pups that stay on the property. As a person who travels extensively, I cannot express how wonderful this was to have and I wish more places did the same. If only we lived closer I would definitely stay at least 5 days. Port Alfred may not be the belle of the ball in the Garden Route, but The Lookout Guest House definitely is.

Great location and view. Clean and neat with everything you need for self catering. Good value for money and friendly host!

There were some doves in the roof or between roofs. I think they have a nest there. They were very noisy and woke us up early hours of the morning. Because we were only staying over 1 night as we were travelling from CT to DBN, we were really tired and needed the sleep. Unfortunately we just got a few hours sleep because of it. Maybe the owner could consider moving their nest

I loved everything about the property. The views are exceptional, the room was huge and very comfortable. We had everything we needed.

Angela is such a lovely host, mam Ange was also very nice!! The place is absolutely stunning, beautiful views clean and excellent facilities (the units have everything that one needs in a self catering accommodation). Would have loved to stay here for our entire vacation in Port Alfred, but the other dates were fully booked.
