        Staff was very welcoming and friendly. Everything was very clean and we got more than what we expected. It was lovely to sit on the terrace and watch the boats go by. Very tranquil setting. The views from the rooms over the river was also great. We enjoyed our stay and the restuarant food was very good too. I would recommend it.

        Gem of a place that we happened upon as we had to stay over in Port Alfred. Loved the couches and benches outside the hotel next to the river, could sit there all day. Staff very helpful and clean facilities. Will definitely recommend the hotel to all and sundry. Could up parking security as had to park outside in the parking lot with no security.

        We have nothing negative to say about My Pond. Everything is excellent and the staff are very friendly and go out of their way to meet your needs. Here Kristin Walker need to get a special accolade, absolutely helpfull and went as far as to run up the road to get us some cotton and thread. Food is great and prices are OK. They will definitely see us again
