lodge on the beach
we just stayed at the "lodge on the beach" for one week, 2 adults and 2 kids (4 and 6, they slept on 2 extra mattresses in the room).
it's been a wonderful week, with all of us loving the relaxed atmosphere in the lodge and the proximity to the beach (step out of your room and walk down 1 minute). very convenient are the two basic but lovely restaurants close by.
michael and cat and are wonderful hosts and manage the place with love and great enthusiasm.
leave your door open all night long and listen to the waves rolling in, guaranteed to keep you sleeping deeply!
we'll definitely be back soon, got infected by pondo-fever!

I would just like to thank you Cat & Mike for the wonderful stay at the Lodge. Cat and Neo - you were such a delight.
your breakfasts and excellent dinners have truely spoilt us both.
I was so looking forward to returning to the Port St. Johns of my childhood which of course is greatly changed, but thanks to your hospitality our stay was exactly what we wanted. No matter what happens around one, the memories stay intact and it was such a joy spending time with you.
I hope that your business really flourishes and that you continue living life with dear, sweet Neo.
We will surely be making a plan to return to you
For anyone wanting to experience the 'wild coast' at it's very best Lodge on the Beach is the best place to do it.
lots of love
Philip and Kay
