Relaxed luxury

Very welcoming hostess and helpful services. As we needed to check out early we were served a breakfast basket to take with us, very nice gesture. The house is recently built and everything is in very good condition, modern and stylish. The area too feels safe and relaxed.

Transit in Port Elizabeth

We stayed at Ocean Bay on 2 occasions during our South Africa tour. The location was very convenient for Port Elizabeth airport and town centre restaurants & amenities. On the first visit we had the suite with private pool, bbq, lounge and dining area, ideal for people traveling in a group. All rooms were newly furbished and the whole building was very smartly appointed. Donna made us very welcome and helped us with restaurant and taxi bookings.

Beautiful Guesthouse

Myself and fiancé always struggle to find accommodation in Port Elizabeth and we were presently surprised to find Oceanbay Guesthouse. The rooms are spacious and clean with modern amenities and a nice terrace. The fireplace in the main living area is also a nice feature. Breakfast is freshly cooked each morning. The staff are also very nice and are happy to help with all your needs. I will most definitely be staying there again. Great property.

Ótima estadia

Fomos recebidos pela dona do hotel, e muito bem atendidos o tempo inteiro. O quarto é ótimo, o café da manhã foi o melhor que já tivemos em um hotel, todos eram muito simpáticos. A localização do hotel era boa, e em poucos minutos era possível chegar em vários pontos de Port Elizabeth.
