WHY STAY AT CAPE ST FRANCIS RESORT?
Apart from the exquisite beach and a wide choice of sporting facilities there is more than just the sand, sea, sun and sport and Cape St Francis Resort is the perfect base from which to explore the entire St Francis region. Surrounded by nature reserves where wonderful examples of different species of fynbos grow in their natural environment within the seven biomes that exist in the 132 hectares of nature areas. Cape St Francis is a hiker’s wonderland with excellent hiking paths that meander through the nature reserves, at times emerging along the rugged coastline.
Seal Point and the historic Cape St Francis Lighthouse, the tallest masonry constructed lighthouse in South Africa.
And after a full day of activities enjoying and exploring all the St Francis region has to offer, a sundowner cruise on the canals of St Francis Bay offers the perfect end to a day at the Cape St Francis Resort.
Point of interest: Biome - a large naturally occurring community of flora and fauna occupying a major habitat, e.g. forest or tundra.
The greater St Francis area boasts seven biomes – Forest, Thicket, Fynbos, Grass, Savannah, Nama Karoo and Succulent Karoo and falls within what is known as The Cape Floral Kingdom that stretches roughly between Cape Town and Port Elizabeth, one of only six is Floral Kingdoms in the world.
Cape St. Francis, in general, is heaven on earth and if ever live by the coast this would be it! We simply loved it!!! It is a 3 min walk from the house to the beautiful beach and a 5 min drive to the lighthouse. Great for a walk by the coast and just relax!!!

Our port elizabeth guest house
We are situated in Newington Street, Richmond Hill on a quiet tree-lined lane, filled with historic and gracefully restored buildings. The peace of the picturesque neighbourhood belies its location in central Port Elizabeth where the heartbeat of the city pulses nearby and the main N2 highway that charters motorists in and out the Bay is but a few streets down.
The saying goes that in Port Elizabeth nothing is more than 15 minutes away and with Richmond Hill this most definitely rings true.
