Comfortable accommodation and attentive host. We were a family of 5 adults. The cabin is spacious and well equipped. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our hosts took time to give us a tour of the area and shared intersting facts. It's a perfect destination if you enjoy beach walks, hiking, fishing and offroading.

Paradise. Absolutely wonderful, everyone was so friendly and a short walk across the street to the most amazing beach. The gardens are beautiful and so lush. We had a few issues getting there because of traffic and the rain, but the host was so understanding and accommodating. Thank you!

The campsite was very basic - camping in someone's garden. The toilet and shower were clean, but precarious plumbing and electrics. Sadly the beach, although across the road was filthy, but not the fault of the owner, Louie, who was friendly and helpful. I would not recommend a trip to Port St Johns.

I am very sorry to hear you did not enjoy Port St. John's. Unfortunately, there was a massive storm shortly before your visit, hence the debris on the beach. Beach clean-ups are done regularly, but sometimes nature has its own way and it also shows us how much plastic, etc is floating in the ocean.

Relaxing atmosphere. Value for Money. Ghekos Place is situated on the Wild Coast near Port St Johns. The cabin had all the necessary items needed for a stay, however, be prepared or its a long drive (~20 minutes plus) to the nearest shop, but guess that's the uniqueness of the place. You can sit back and unwind after a day's work or if on holiday even better all day. The beach is a short walk away. I hope to be back again.

Beautiful setting by the sea. Nice campsite with friendly staff. However, ablution needs attention.

Mooi omgewing by see. Mooi kampplek met vriendelike personeel. Ablusie kort egter aandag.

Beautiful location, friendly people, a stone's throw from the beach. Only for experienced and hardy campers!

Pragtige ligging, vriendelike mense, 'n klipgooi van die strand af. Net vir ervare en geharde kampeerders!

Unforgettable adventure. Geckos Place has crept deep into our hearts. We were a family of 14 people who camped for 2 weeks. We take many beautiful memories together. The sound of the sea in our ears was fantastic. The beach is literally across the road. There was always hot water in the showers, but the whole group felt the bathrooms needed an urgent upgrade. The toilets often did not work. Joseph did come to solve the problem every time. The showers and toilets were not always clean and the roof leaks when it rains leaving no space for towels and clothes. Joseph was a stalwart in more ways than one, always ready to help. The campsite is fenced. We never felt unsafe. Patches, Uncle Louis' dog, spoiled us with regular camp visits. She is a beautiful animal and easily creeps into your heart. The local people of Port St. Johns is friendly, helpful and good-natured. There are so many beautiful things to see. Geckos Place has great potential. Uncle Louis, we had a great stay, just think it might be time for a bathroom upgrade.

Onvergeetlike avontuur. Geckos Place het diep in ons harte gekruip. Ons was ‘n familie van 14 mense wat vir 2 weke gekamp het. Ons vat baie mooi herinneringe saam. Die see se gedruis in ons ore was fantasties. Die strand is letterlik oorkant die pad. Daar was altyd warm water in die storte, maar die hele groep voel die badkamers het dringende opgradering nodig. Die toilette het dikwels nie gewerk nie. Joseph het wel elke keer die probleem kom oplos. Die storte en toilette was nie altyd skoon nie en die dak lek as dit reën wat maak dat daar geen spasie is vir handdoeke en klere nie. Joseph was ‘n staatmaker in meer as een opsig, altyd gereed om te help. Die kampplek is omhein. Ons het nooit onveilig gevoel nie. Patches, oom Louis se hond, het ons bederf met gereelde kampbesoeke. Sy is ‘n pragtige dier en kruip maklik in jou hart in. Die plaaslike mense van Port St. Johns is vriendelik, behulpsaam en goedgesind. Daar is soveel mooi goed om te sien. Geckos Place het groot potensiaal. Oom Louis, ons het baie lekker gebly, dink net dis dalk tyd vir ‘n badkamer upgrade.
