"Paradise is an understatement. Les and Rowene are consummate hosts in this Eastern Cape piece of heaven. The units are incredibly well designed and the view of the Bushman's River is beyond description, even while lying in bed.

And speaking of beds, I'm not sure if it's the mattress, the pillows, the altitude or the total lack of stress, but I haven't had sleep like this for ages!

A stone's throw from Kenton on Sea and close to great swimming beaches and lagoons, the location cannot be faulted. The area is filled with interesting activities, lots of historical sites and your hosts know all of the best eating places.

It's a bargain at twice the price! We'll definitely be back if they'll have us. " Google Review

"Wow. Amazing. Breathtaking and beautiful. Will always hold a special place in my heart. The owners left no stone unturned and made us feel welcome from Day 1. The view is amazing and so much local knowledge is shared where to go and what to do . Unit is comfortable, well thought of, includes everything (even a colander😘) little touches like fresh milk, water, soap and quite a few more makes it feel like a second home. Thank you so much Les and Rowene! I highly recommend Grey Herons Rest and would gladly give you 5000 stars if I could ! We coming back for the honeymoon " Google review
