Kirsten is a great host and has a lovely very personal guest house. The view from the room is extraordinary. The garden is also very beautiful with a very nice pool. We really enjoyed our stay and would have loved to stayed longer.

We had such a great time at The Ocean Bay Luxury Guesthouse. The breakfast was delicious, the pool and the view on the sea were amazing, and the host (Kirsten) provided us with very useful recommendations for restaurants and activities in or near Jeffrey's Bay. Moreover, Kirsten and her staff were really friendly and welcoming. Definitley the best place we stayed on our South Africa trip. Thank you, Kirsten and team!
