overview

Combining elements of contemporary chic with classic comforts, The Windermere is a secluded and private boutique hotel set in the historic city of Port Elizabeth on South Africa’s south-east coast. Gateway to the Eastern Cape and its malaria-free Big 5 game reserves, Port Elizabeth is also a convenient place to start or end a Garden Route holiday.

The hotel also enjoys one of Port Elizabeth's most enviable locations: it's a short walk to the Blue Flag Kings Beach, McArthur's Pools, fine restaurants and the Boardwalk Casino. An easy transfer to the excellent Addo Elephant National Park, located less than an hour's drive away, can also be arranged.

Traveller Reviews

  • The Windermere hotel was very good. It is a nice hotel and comfortable. The staff were helpful.

    Dave Thomas, April 2009

  • Ideal for an overnight stop over, very convenient and easy to find from the airport. Definitely better option that staying overnight in a Joburg airport hotel.

    Amy Robinson, November 2008

  • We were only there for one night so didn't really get to know anyone but they were all helpful. The site is excellent for access to the better part of town and the beach.
