We've proudly represented Crawford's Beach Lodge since 2003. Here is a nostalgic look at their entry from our 2017 Printed Guide Book.
GUEST HOUSE - CHINTSA EAST
"High lush dunes, sweeping beaches and the scenic beauty of the Wild Coast in a unique setting on the warm Indian Ocean, only 40km from East London – this is the idyllic location of Crawford's Beach Lodge. Sun- drenched days are spent swimming in the turquoise sea, or walking barefoot along miles of unspoilt golden beaches. Guests are welcomed with genuine hospitality in an intimate, tranquil setting. Each comfortable cottage or bedroom has an individual balcony from which to greet the day or to watch whales or dolphins in the bay. All that fresh air will give you a good appetite! Enjoy the generous leisurely breakfasts overlooking the ocean, with carvery dinners taking in the evening hue. 4-Star Guest House. Wi-Fi | Children welcome | Honeymoons."
