Hotel is basically a large house on a large housing estate. Its out of the town and away from the main beaches and any shops. There are no facilities to walk to near the hotel which surrounded by a very high wall electric fence and guard. Photos a little misleading The bedroom was small and like staying in some ones...

This B&B is located in Bluewater in Port Elizabeth, not idealistically close to the main city hub if your in town for business as odd hours. The residence is self, is very nice, safe and secure and quite attractive. The rooms, unfortunately are very small, and the be placement of basic services in the room are not well co-ordinated with... More

The b&b has no direct access to the sea at all: you have to walk for not less than 1 km to reach it. No air-conditioning as well. The room are close to the living room and starting from 6 30 am you hear a lot of noise of staff working around. The photos advertised on their web-site are misleading.... More

We stayed in the lodge for one night to break up a longish drive but we enjoyed our short stay. The place is kept very clean and the breakfast was very good as well and the place has very nice lounge/dining areas with great views. Our room overlooked the hotel car park but they have other rooms with sea views... More

My colleagues and I stayed for 10 days. What a great place to stay when working in and around Port Elizabeth. Its location made it very easy to get around. We were very comfortable and the staff were very helpful and friendly. The free Wi-Fi made it easy to work from anywhere in the Lodge. I can really recommend this... More

Great view of sea. Sea appears as if there is hundreds of Dolphins are dancing. We stayed there with family with our teenager children, However, the view is great from 2nd level rooms and not ground floor rooms. Rooms are relatively small but very clean and good, new like. Everything is running perfect - no complain and the owner is... More

Although we enjoyed our stay in a nice room and had great breakfast, I experienced a billing problem which the hotel refused to resolve. E-mailed them several times and received a reply stating they would review. I sent several follow-up e-mails, but received no reply. Too bad. More

The Marris family are very gracious hosts and the staff at the friendliest I've ever met. Home cooked breakfast to order when you wake up. Karen, the mom, has a ton of great recommendations for local activities. I highly recommend the Dolphin Dance Lodge and will be returning myself! More
