We had such a lovely stay at ShipsBell on Saturday night! It was the absolute perfect overnighter. The location is fantastic—there are shops close by, and it is a beautiful, easy walk down to the beach. The accommodation itself was spotlessly...

The location and view were excellent. The apartment was spotlessly clean. There is a safe provided which is great for international travellers to secure their passports, etc. Parking was freely and easily available.

Ships Bell 5B is a lovely, bright and modern holiday apartment, situated along the water's edge of the Port St Francis Harbour. It is the perfect choice for couples looking for a relaxing holiday. The apartment is semi-self catering. The kitchenette is equipped with all the basic appliances to cook delicious meals and a gas braai facility is available on the deck overlooking the port. The apartment offers uncapped WiFi, Premium DSTV, and Netflix. The apartment can accommodate two adults and two children. In addition, guests have access to the communal swimming pool in the complex.
We would like to extend a warm welcome to our guests. Our wish is that your stay with us will be a joyous one filled with fond and lasting memories. Hospitality is one of our values and it will give us great pleasure if you feel at home in our condo. We are both employed in the farming industry. To unwind we love to hike, cycle and visit places of interest.
Popular points of interest within walking distance from the apartment include fine dining restaurants, cafes and shops. Enjoy scenic hiking or cycling trails along the beach to Seal Point Lighthouse.
