Beautiful viewsFriendly service
NeilSouth AfricaGreat place to stay if you enjoy a tranquil setting right on the beach.
Jez, the host was very friendly and helpful. Great location and direct access to the beach was a bonus.
The bath is very slippery when taking a shower. Would suggest supplying a rubber mat. The stove top is very rusty.
JohnSouth AfricaThe location is superb, virtually on the beach. The accommodation was well equipped and the hosts Lloyd and Jez are the perfect hosts
FarnaazSouth AfricaThe place was exceptionally clean, included little details like peaceful sleep, adaptors, complimentary refreshments and coffee. Loved the peaceful atmosphere. We felt very safe during our stay. Secure parking available.

On the beach. Great view in tranquil garden. Jess was so friendly and made us feel at home. We had everything we needed Braai and bathtub a bonus. Spoils for snacking came in so handy. Thank you!
