Looking for tranquillity, exclusivity, and security….? Look no further, you have just found the right place. We offer a relaxing home-stay experience in a delightful and peaceful environment, where guests share common areas with the owners. The guests also have the privacy of a comfortable guest suite with two bedrooms and two bathrooms on the first floor. Unsurpassed views over the canals can be enjoyed from the spacious balcony off the two bedrooms, the perfect setting for morning coffee and sundowners.
The guest suite consists of the following:
The first bedroom has a king size bed, TV with all DSTV channels, ceiling fan, bar fridge, microwave and a hairdryer. The en-suite bathroom is fitted with a toilet, a basin and a spacious shower. There are coffee and tea making facilities that serve both bedrooms.
The second – smaller - bedroom has two single beds, a ceiling fan and a hairdryer. The private bathroom across the passage has a toilet, a basin and a shower above the bath.
The suite is ideal for a couple, or maximum four people, or a family with maximum 2 children over 12. It is especially in demand because of its suitability of two persons travelling together, who prefer to have separate bedrooms and/or bathrooms.
Marina Magic does not offer any meals, but complimentary rusks and biscuits are available in the guest suite with coffee and tea making facilities. There are a number of quaint coffee shops and cozy restaurants nearby which serve hearty breakfasts, delicious lunches and excellent dinners at reasonable prices. A 20-minutes' walk will get you to the centre of toen.
The Marina complex offers the use of a swimming pool and tennis court at no charge. For a small fee, guests can make use of a squash court and a large heated indoor pool that are situated just outside the complex. A twenty minutes' walk will get you to the Eastern Beach where you can stroll for hours along beautiful, unspoiled beaches, or alternatively, catch a tan whilst watching the surfers catching a wave… A short drive will take you to some other stunning beaches in Port Alfred and more beaches are to be found along the Sunshine Coast.
Port Alfred and surroundings offer various attractions and recreational activities including river cruising, canoeing, surfing, fishing, horse riding and golf. Visiting the neighbouring towns is also a delightful experience, one of which is the historical village of Bathurst with the famous Pig & Whistle pub, the oldest licensed pub in South Africa. The Great Fish Point Lighthouse may also be worth a visit.
A drive of an hour and a half will take you to the famous ADDO Elephant Park, which hosts the BIG FIVE. There are also various smaller game reserves in the area.
Situated between Port Elizabeth and East London, Port Alfred is easy accessible and is about an hour and a half's drive from either airport.
If you enjoy the tranquillity of the water side, then Marina Magic may be the perfect place for you to relax and reconnect.
