MyPond Hotel is an exciting, newly built hotel on the banks of the Kowie River, in Port Alfred. The car park is dominated by a 10m high Queen Palm and the entrance by a welcoming waterfall feature. You can already feel this is somewhere a little special. The climate is temperate, and during the 2nd World War the Royal Air Force built 5 pilot training schools in the area as they felt that it had the best weather in the Empire suited to training. AccommodationThe emphasis of the accommodation is on comfortable and affordable luxury, with stunning, very roomy (approx 50 m²) river-view Suites and practical (approx 25 m²) Classic Rooms. There are many touches that will simply make you say “wow”, from the electronic Do Not Disturb signs to the LED lit light switches, to help you find them in the dark. The rooms are all en-suite, air-conditioned, with LCD televisions (10 satellite channels), telephones, universal plug points, safe, fridge and tea / coffee facilities. The Suites are equipped with an i-Pod docking station, radios, heated towel rails and sleeper couches. There is disabled access to all our rooms (via lift) and a full disabled toilet in our lobby. All hot water (the swimming pool and air-conditioning) is heated / cooled using innovative and very environ-friendly geothermal (heat from the earth) technology - a first for South Africa. Also a vast majority of lighting is low wattage energy saving globes. DiningThe vibrant Ētarē restaurant and stunning 60 seater Conference Centre; both opening out onto the banks of the river, add to the hotel’s ‘get-away-from-it-all’ feel. All three meals are served on an á la carte basis, and there is a fully stocked bar. Conferences and WeddingsConferences and Weddings are professionally arranged to accommodate both small parties and those up to a maximum of 120 persons. The entire hotel can also be available to being booked out for longer periods by either Conference or Wedding Parties at reduced rates. Our pricing is aimed at tempting you to spend that little more - to get a lot more in value. FacilitiesGuests also have access to a swimming pool, WiFi Internet and a spa.

Port AlfredPort Alfred is a quaint town, with many hidden gems, quiet English pubs, Sports Bars, a TAB, beach bars for the teenagers, two shopping malls, and a host of delightful gift and antique shops. We have two designer golf courses nearby, a very active air training school and miles of unspoilt beaches, where even in the busy times, you may not see another soul! We would be delighted to organise days out (boating, game-viewing, golf, birding, hiking and horse riding). With sufficient notice we are able to organise airport transfers. There is a host of activities from kite-surfing to scuba-diving, fishing, world class surfing, golf, bowls, croquet, historical trails, museums, indoor pool, malls, self drive game viewing … or you can just relax!
