Manor 38 is located in Summerstrand Port Elizabeth. The Manor is beautiful, nicely decorated with spacious bedrooms and bathroom, private television, WiFi, etc. It also has two large sitting rooms, one with a large television and fireplace for all guests to use, plus a gorgeous swimming pool. The daily breakfast is preordered, with selections from fruit plate, cereal, toasts, eggs cooked many different ways, including omelettes. The staff, specially Christopher, deserve recognition for outstanding service. They were helpful with recommendations, tour reservations, and much more. Please note that Port Elizabeth has some issues with alcohol and drug addictions so important to be vigilant. But thumbs up to Manor 38 and a super staff!

A great time in Port Elizabeth

The host was great, the board walk (and the board walk mall) and at a walking distance. The guest house had room for about 6 cars inside the fenced parking lot. Overall we enjoyed it.

Great stay at a great property

The house is very nice and clean. Christopher, the staff in charge, was very helpful during our stay and even offered us a room upgrade! They pay attention to details, gave us some nice chocolate and drinks every night, and even a Christmas cake on Christmas day. Breakfast was fantastic, very well cooked and seasoned. We really enjoyed it. The pool area was also really nice and relaxing.

The property was a short walk to the extensive boardwalk along the beach. The owner was awesome! When he noticed that our card had been charged twice, he ran over from having dinner with his wife to make sure that our card was properly credited. The room was nice and big, which was great so we could get our luggage re-situated before we flew home. The made-to-order breakfast was delicious!!
