Accommodation Services in George

No two rooms are the same and all have sun decks or verandas, kitchenettes or full access to kitchens, lounges, stocked bar fridges, tea, coffee, heaters and fans. Land's End is the closest accommodation to the sea in Africa, set in the charming and quaint seaside hamlet of Victoria Bay, literally on the beach front. The meeting was called to hear a report on the capabilities of Gunter Bay, as it was then known. Captain Allen reported that it was possible to land goods at all times. In due course Gunter Bay was renamed Victoria Bay in honour of the reigning sovereign. When he died in 1927 he left Victoria Bay to his eight children. Reginald, Lionel, Alexander and Edwin were the sons and Constance, Effi, Marjory and Joan made up the daughters. Effi and Marjory inherited the Gable House near the jetty. The period around 2000 Today the bay is made up of families who have been fortunate enough to have bought their own properties and then there are those that have inherited their properties. All properties are very tightly held and seldom come onto the market. There are a few guest houses that are frequented mostly by overseas tourists and throughout the year there are 13 permanent residents. The Bay is served by a comfortable restaurant, two camp sites, lovely beach and lawn area. The swimming is outstanding and the local surfers here have one of the most consistent surf breaks anywhere along the South African coastline. Fishing in the bay is good to excellent over some months of the year. Spear fishing is not encouraged and plans are afoot to create a marine sanctuary.
