For many travelling through the Eastern Cape, the coastal city of Port Elizabeth, now called Gqeberha, has become an appealing destination. Throughout summer, warm weather welcomes beach days with ease, while winter remains mild enough for outdoor adventures. Tucked away in Parsons Hill, Coral Tree Guest House offers the kind of stay where family fun comes naturally. With its bespoke accommodation, curated experiences, and tailor-made getaways, this guest house delivers a winter weekend designed with children in mind.
A Comfortable Home Away from Home




Gqeberha is known as the Ten-Minute City, allowing travellers to easily move between the city centre, beachfront, and bush outings. Combine this with the rich biodiversity of Addo Elephant Park, less than an hour away, and the destination becomes a firm family favourite. At Coral Tree Guest House, every member of staff works to ensure that young guests, along with their parents, enjoy time together in comfort and adventure, no matter the season.
The Cottage stands as Coral Tree’s bespoke family accommodation. Comfortably housing a family of five within its two bedrooms, every detail of this comfortable and cheerful accommodation has been carefully thought out. Its spacious open-plan entrance areas gently flow from a lounge space to the dining nook and a fully fitted kitchen. Within these spaces, guests can spend quality time together, while the shaded patio outside invites relaxation. Braai facilities mean fun nights by the fire, and children can make the most of their stay with the range of fun activities. A playhouse comes stocked with toys and dolls, and a jungle gym is close by.
Renowned for its sense of homely seclusion, the semi-detached Suite boasts a spacious bedroom and lounge area, kitchenette and wheelchair-friendly bathroom. Fully enclosed and tucked into a quiet corner of the garden, this accommodation is primarily suitable for couples, but a camp cot, highchair, and baby swing are available on request.
Child-Friendly Activities


Coral Tree Guest House offers a tailor-made, curated 2-night winter experience designed especially for families with three under-12 children. With a focus on kids’ fun, every moment has been crafted to keep young guests entertained and engaged.
The swimming pool is easily accessed from the rooms. Book nooks invite bookworms to curl up. Puzzles and games keep minds engaged. For outdoor fun, head to the hopscotch court. Imagination can be sparked too with the Grand Sandcastle Challenge, Fun Kit Bags, while Awards such as the Bookworm Award make young guests feel proud.
