The campsite was very basic - camping in someone's garden.
Gecko's Place 's response
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.

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.

Lovely campsite with everything you need.
We had a great camp, the sea and beach are just opposite the campsite. The road there was a surprise. Perhaps a "Geckos Place" sign at the turn off at the bridge will reassure you that you are on the right track.

Disappointing.
Gecko's Place 's response
Good day, Kevin,
I am sorry that you had an unpleasant stay.
I'm a very surprised that you never met the owner, Louie. He said he came over to you and offered you a braai stand but you said you had one.
As for shade, it's a new camping site as you saw. They have planted trees but unfortunately, they take a while to grow. I will make a note on the web page saying shade.
I also know that there is normally an extension to each site if this was ni ot the case I will tell them to check
About the gate, I have asked Louie to purchase enough remotes for each quest.
This will be noted and corrected.
Once again we are sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay.
I'm sure if you do visit again you will find a more favourable stay.

Fantastic location and very peaceful.
Very nice camping pitches. Limited pitches that make it unique and not overcrowded. Louie makes sure that you can't help but have a good time. Short walk to the beach.
