Perfect Location, relaxing and rejuvenating - this place meets a travellers needs without doubt.
Pros:

We received a warm, friendly welcome and were shown personally to the room with a thorough explanation. The room was fantastic with a relaxing ambience and excellent aircon which was a relief. Everything functioned very well, communication channels were clear and efficient and we had everything we needed. There are convenient places nearby to eat breakfast and being right on the promenade there are many dinner and drink options. The recommendations we received were great. We highly recommend and would stay again for sure.

Topverblijf en persoonlijke benadering
Pros:

We hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad in de Gingerbread Suite! Fantastisch uitzicht, fantastisch (kingsize) bed, heerlijk balkon, goed uitgeruste keuken, veel ruimte. Geweldige locatie langs de Belmont Walkway. Airconditioning en 2 plafondventilators zorgden voor verkoeling, maar ook zonder dat was het een goed geventileerde ruimte. Mooie tuin erom heen ook, met fruit dat je mag plukken. Eigenaar Hayssam deed er alles aan om ons verblijf aangenaam te maken, en de persoonlijke gesprekken zowel als de
persoonlijke en flexibele benadering waren top!
Echte aanrader!

Cons:

Geen tegenvallers. Het viel tegen dat we weg moesten...

Look no further, if you want Location, Comfort and the Comfiest Bed!
Pros:

Unbeatable in Bequia. View that keeps you glued on the balcony, and unforgettable rooms.

Cons:

A little dated kitchen, but nothing not a showstopper.

A comfortable self-catering suite in the heart of Port Elizabeth

The Gingerbread Suites are ideally located on the Port Elizabeth waterfront in Bequia. Our room was perfect with a comfortable bed, two day beds, a small well equiped kitchen and a good shower room. There is a balcony for enjoying a drink or meal. The air conditioning was good and the WIFI/internet adequate.

Cons:

All good.
