Located in the heart of the Garden Route, The Point Hotel is superbly positioned on the rocks below Mossel Bay?s famous St Blaize Lighthouse. Guests can expect magnificent views and a tranquil atmosphere. Facilities at the 4-star hotel include 52 luxury sea facing, en-suite bedrooms each with their own private balcony. Enjoy spectacular views of the Indian Ocean and unwind with a drink and marvel at the majestic sea life, which includes dolphins, humpback- and southern right whales. Each room is equipped with M-Net and DSTV, international plug points, remote control ceiling fans, panel heaters, direct dial telephones, tea and coffee station, a lock-up safe to ensure a comfortable stay and an internet access point with Wi-Fi hot spots located throughout the hotel. The hotel is fully accessible with hydraulic lifts servicing all floors and wheel-chair friendly rooms and bathrooms. The Lighthouse Restaurant serves sumptuous buffet breakfasts and offers a Provencal-style Mediterranean a la carte menu as well as set menus and buffets for groups. Conference facilities and equipment for up to 80 delegates are available and the function room with spectacular views of the sea is an ideal venue for private dinners and weddings. The recently established Business Centre is located on the ground floor and accommodates 10 delegates around a boardroom table and offers computer, printing and internet facilities. Directly below The Point Hotel is the largest tidal pool on the South African coastline, formed by natural rocks, this area is a popular place even at low tide and offers safe bathing to guests. Next to the hotel you?ll find a fantastic spot to wind down with some surfing. Frequented by local and international surfers, it?s not to be missed. Behind the hotel and perched above the Mossel Bay peninsula is the St Blaize Lighthouse. Erected in 1864, this is definitely a historical site of interest for tourists with awesome views of the majestic Indian Ocean. Directly below the lighthouse is the Khoi-San Cave. Originally inhabited by the indigenous Khoi-San people, this is the site where Bartholomeu Diaz was first witnessed during his discovery voyage of the Southern Cape. Another attraction is the famous St Blaize walking trail, which follows a contour path for 15 kilometres to Dana Bay. As the days winds down and the beautiful African sun falls below the horizon, guests can enjoy a leisurely stroll around the Point area where the public facilities recently underwent an upgrade. This has now made the Point area a safe and attractive environment to enjoy with six different restaurants offering from seafood to Italian to tapas ? there is something to suit everyone?s taste. ?New developments and recent upgrades have restored The Point to its rightful place as a premier waterfront destination,? said Louis Harris, owner of The Point Hotel.
