With mild winter temperatures and much less rainfall than its tourism counterpart under that famous mountain, Nelson Mandela Bay has much to offer as a winter break destination.
Even if you don’t fancy a dash into the moderate Indian Ocean, which averages 19°C in August at its coldest, the City’s access to the beachfront lifestyle means you can soak up stunning sea views while enjoying a brisk stroll of several kilometres along the promenade.
Sun International’s Boardwalk Casino and Entertainment World is the City’s best address, overlooking Hobie Beach, which holds Blue Flag status.
The only licensed casino in Port Elizabeth, The Boardwalk offers a range of slot machine and tables games in separate smoking and non-smoking areas of the casino and Salon Prive. Slots games start from as little as two cents, or players can test their skills at games such as American Roulette, Blackjack Switch, Blackjack, Poker, Baccarat and AmaDice.
Luxury accommodation at the Boardwalk Hotel
Accommodation at the luxurious four-star Boardwalk Hotel boasts 140 rooms and suites with sweeping views of the beaches and Indian Ocean beyond. The hotel offers personalised service, plush accommodation, dining, room service, three swimming pools, world-class health spa facilities, and well-appointed business facilities.
If you are looking for a holiday destination or just a place where you can sit back and relax in the lap of luxury, then look no further than the Boardwalk Hotel.
