Description

Mountain View Inn is centrally located in Port St. Johns and is situated in close proximity of the majestic Mount Thesiger and the mighty Umzimvubu River. We pride ourselves on offering a friendly hospitality service and affordable, clean accommodation options.

The accommodation offers 5 open-plan rooms, namely Intombi and Aloe which can accommodate 2 guests in each, Nguni and Pondo which can accommodate 4 guests in each and Protea which can accommodate 5 guests.

Intombi is seperate from the other 4 rooms and comprises a double bed, an en-suite bathroom with a shower and a kitchenette with a small stove/oven, fridge, pots, crockery and cutlery.

The Aloe room has a double bed while Nguni and Pondo have a double bed and a bunk bed in each.

The Nguni, Pondo and Aloe rooms each have their own fridge/freezer and tea- and coffee- making facilities, and have access to a communal kitchen area which is well equipped with a variety of pots, pans, crockery, cutlery, cooking utensils, gas stoves and microwave for cooking purposes.

Protea has a double bed, a bunk bed and a single bed, as well as an en-suite bathroom with a shower and a kitchenette with a small stove/oven, fridge and microwave.

You can see everything from Fish Eagles to Sunbirds on our property. If you want something more adventurous you may consider going up to the airstrip to take in the gorgeous scenery of the Indian Ocean flowing into the Umzimvubu River, or spend the day at Mpande, Umgazana, First, Second or Third beaches fishing, walking, swimming and hiking.

Silaka Nature Reserve is also worth a visit and your entry point to Third beach, a lovely long open sandy beach which is more private and quieter to visit than the other beaches, especially during peak holiday periods.

Bulolo and Magwa Waterfalls are also a sight to behold, as is the Magwa plantation, a local proudly South African tea leaf grower/manufacturer. For something else interesting to do head down to Isinuka Mud Caves and Sulphur Pools. For the daredevils, give The Gap & Blowhole a visit. Water is forced into a narrow gully which ends in a natural chimney-like hole from which the water, at the incoming tide, shoots into the air for about 20 meters. A warning to the venturesome: Do not try to look into the Blow Hole. Please be careful though, the blow hole is at its best when seas are rough.

Other adventure options include kayaking the river, horse riding trails, enjoying the amazing butterflies and walking the mountains, beaches and cliffs, a cruise on the Bobalong barge along the Umzimvubu River etc.
