The 'Lookout' has a fantastic view and the fully equipped living room, dining room, kitchen, bedroom and bathroom are spacious and can also be recommended for longer stays.
With a warm welcome, a beautiful unit and incredible views, The Lookout is a must on anyone's travel list.
The place is very beautiful, a schedule of the 'loadshedding' will help the guests to plan better how their day goes.

Everything and more there. Delicious breakfast also enjoyed.
Angela was fantastic and so friendly, she brought a camper cot and feeding chair. In addition she brought a baby bath as well. The venue was exceptionally clean. The views were amazing and the rooms came with a braai facilities. On the second day Angela brought through some toys for the children as well just to keep them entertained while were in the rooms. Overall it was an absolute pleasure to stay at the lookout. We would recommend it to anyone who is looking for accommodation in Port Alfred.
Very pleasant hostess. We had a lovely stay at Ange's place. There are very strict water restrictions but they did their best for us. Very pleasant experience.
An elegant place to stay in, homely with a very friendly host.
Everything we wanted was close by, 20 minutes away was the maximum.
There was a braai place and a microwave oven, more than just an ordinary guest house. The room was very spacious, there was full dstv and wifi. It's close to the town with a beautiful view.
Very tastefully furnished. View as promised and looked like how it was it was in the pictures. Friendly owner
The hospitality I experienced was wonderful. Was so impressed with the service and great food. Would definitely recommend it.
This is a very nice place, I would recommend it to anyone who wants to go and enjoyed themselves with the loved ones.

Lovely surroundings. Would love to recommend it.
Louise was very friendly. Place was very neat and breakfast was delicious.
The welcome and beauty of the place was fantastic. It is a safe place with a breathtaking view of the Port Alfred Marine and the sea in the background. Breakfast and cleanliness are a plus.
Many thanks to Louise who received us generously and greeted us kindly every day. It is a bonus that the hostess stays on the premises. The name creates expectation, and we were not disappointed. Thank you very much for a pleasant, clean and tidy stay.
Stayed one night on the way to Grahamstown. Will definitely stay there again next time.
Secured, spacious, clean and the people are so humble and understand children.
Our hostess was very friendly. She is beautiful! Our place had everything we needed. The filter coffee was a great bonus! Beautiful and clean. Thank you very much.
We stayed in the tranquil, beautiful village. Felt like something from a storybook. The owner, Louise, was very friendly and their road maps in the room helped to explore the area. Will definitely go back again.
I can highly recommend this place to stay. The people are friendly, the service and accommodation are excellent. I would definitely stay there again.
A pleasant experience for a night or two, but limited for longer.
Lovely hostess, lovely views, lovely equipped, lovely neat and clean. What could I complain about?
What an amazing place! We could have tea from proper cups en die breakfast was super. The whole stay there was just awesome.
Home away from home, enjoyed it.
Loved it will go there again.
Thank you so much for accommodating us in your beautiful B&B. The ice cold water in the fridge was so thoughtful as it was so hot when we arrived. The room was cool and neat and so beautiful. Stunning view. Your breakfast was awesome. Thank you so much, we'd love to come back and visit again.
The stay at The Lookout exceeded my expectations, my room was beautiful, spacious and very tidy. The breakfast was delicious and well served. And a big plus: delicious filter coffee in the room! Would definitely stay there again and can highly recommend it. Well located and within walking distance of the beach.
My stay was amazing, friendly, clean and breakfast felt just like home being served in the my room!
Thanks for a great weekend away! Rooms are spacious, neat and tidy.Breakfast was served on time in our room as requested. Kitchen well equipped and more than enough coffee to keep us going!
Friendly reception. Place was clean and neat. We could park by our room. Had a good sleep and was really spoilt with breakfast in the room. Really felt like home.
All the amenities you need with modern finishes best views and wonderful hospitality with the best breakfast served personally at your own porch! We will come again and again and again, very nice beach house atmosphere with excellent facilities with a very hospitable hostess! Best service and lovely swimming pool to cool off while looking at the Kowie River flowing into the sea!
It was excellent! The place was clean, breakfast was top notch and our hostess was fantastic. We really slept well!
Excellent hospitality, atmosphere and stunning views of the Marina.Would definitely return to The Outlook on our next trip to Port Alfred.
Stayed there for a week. Couldn't have been better. Stunning views overlooking the marina. 10 minute walk to town.
Good views from the room and terrace, very friendly owner, and a beautiful breakfast. An excellent accommodation.
JP Nortje has no complaints and will definitely stay at The Lookout again. He was there on business and travels a lot and says it was very "NICE".
This was a perfect venue choice on our last trip to the Eastern Cape - the guest house owner treats her visitors as 'family' and the breakfasts were superb. This venue is certainly good value for money - thank you for a very pleasant experience! PS: Send our regards to Milo.
One of our nicest stays at The Lookout. Louise was very friendly, and the accommodation is of the highest standerd. Will recommend them to everybody, and would like to go back again one day.
We felt most welcome and enjoyed every minute of our stay at the lovely "The Lookout" guesthouse. Breakfasts were outstanding and we appreciated the attention to detail.
The Lookout was superb - from the accomodaation, to the food, to location and customer service.Louise has certaily done herself proud. We will stay there again if we are in the area and have already recommended the place to friends on Facebook and raved about it when meeting them. The Lookout is a little gem.
