The location is very nice. The beach in front of the place is just amazing. There is surf spot just in front of it. The view from the room looking at the sun rising from the ocean is Waow! The appartment is of a good size whith all what is needed for a stay. The breakfast choices is just great.

Best place to stay when in JB!

Proximity to the ocean / beach. Literally few steps away. Good breakfast and friendly staff on site. Need a car to drive around (local taxis are quick and cheap). Spacious room with a view. Nice bar upstairs. Views are in general beautiful as all you see is the ocean.

We had a wonderful stay at On The Beach and highly recommend it.

The breakfasts were superb. Tsepho was an outstanding host to us and could not have been kinder or more accommodating. He is an asset to On The Beach. Our room was very clean, serviced well each day, the bed was extremely comfortable and the views were spectacular.

A wonderful beach holiday!

Our family of 5 (adult/teen children) absolutely loved our stay at On the Beach. The best thing about it is the location - amazing views of the ocean and quick access to a quiet beach. But we also loved the friendly staff and their quick action when we needed anything, even replacing a lock that was sticking. The breakfasts were delicious and the honesty bar, a win. The self-contained apartment is great for families. We will definitely be back.
