Crawford's Beach Lodge is a highly recommended Cintsa hotel providing accommodation in 28 guest rooms for anyone visiting the Wild Coast region.

About Crawford's Beach Lodge

Crawford's Beach Lodge, set along the magical Wild Coast, offers rustic luxury accommodation for guests who are looking for privacy, peace and tranquillity.

Crawford's is nestled in the middle of the beautiful Chintsa Bay on the Wild Coast, surrounded by rolling hills, lush tropical beach forests and overlooks the warm Indian Ocean. The location is malaria free. We are approximately 42km from East London, far enough from the maddening crowd, but close enough for emergencies.

Accommodation

Crawford's Beach Lodge offers luxury suites which consist of double and twin bedrooms all en-suite and each with its own private balcony, overlooking the sea. The suites are fully equipped with bar fridge, DStv, coffee and tea making facilities, with air conditioning or fans and fully equipped kitchenettes.

There is also a self catering cottage on the property sleeping eight guests in four bedrooms. There are three bathrooms, a kitchen and a lounge area. There are gorgeous views and you are just a short walk from the beach.

Bar and Restaurant

Get acquainted with your fellow guests by interacting in our lounge, having a drink in the bar or merely floating around the lawn under the tropical Khamanga palms. The Crawford's pride themselves with the cuisine they have on offer; delicious and nutritious homemade meals. All meals are served in the main dining room overlooking the sea and are set on a buffet basis, offering fine dining with a wide variety.

Conference Facilities

The perfect spot to have your conferences. We have three conference facilities, fully carpeted and air conditioned with breakaway rooms. A short distance from East London (ą 42km's) and the airport.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Outstanding service, combined with fresh delicious meals overlooking panaromic ocean views in a complete relaxed ambient setting. A wonderful experience of walking on uninhabited beach in awe of wonderful sealife flourishing on the shore line. Will definitely be back .
