Pleasant weekend break in St Francis Bay
Well maintained property in a pleasant environment. Excellent service throughout especially from Front Office Managar Lusanda who is a gem and a true asset to sandals Guest house. Basic but wholesome breakfast offered on the deck overlooking the pool is included in the tariff Recommended..

Not the best
This is a quaint small Hotel in a great destination. The problem is that maintaining things like water heaters is difficult at Worlds End. Our room had a shower that was either scolding hot or very cold no in between! Staff is friendly but chef fried our crêpes style breakfast in a skillet used for bacon. Unfortunately this is supposed to be the best alternative in St Frances Bay.

Sandals is great. Very comfortable, good service and good breakfast. Only downsides were lack of sockets by the bed to charge phones etc. and no backup power during load-shedding. But otherwise, all good

We only stayed one night having just arrived in Port Elizabeth and wish we had booked for longer. Sandals is a delightful guest house and the owners Tess and Ryszard could not have made us more welcome. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable, imaginatively decorated with an artistic flair.
