    Location was beautiful and peaceful. Amazing mountain view and close to hiking trails and the beach. Hosts were very kind and helpful. Despite an issue in the area, the host went out of their way to assist us. Looking forward to return in the future.

    The accommodation met all our expectation and included a generator so that we weren't affected by load shedding. It was also in a very busy area but incredibly quiet & peaceful with a lovely side sea view.

    The location is amazing. You can walk to the beach within a few minutes and it is a fairly quiet, peaceful area where our kids could ride their bikes.

    Lovely guest house. Close enough to the city to explore. The view from the sea facing rooms is superb. The beach is in close proximity. The staff were really friendly. Peaceful and quiet area. They have backup power should typical South African issues arise. Would stay here again.

    This is a lovely place to stay. A fairly small hotel so quiet and peaceful. We had a sea view room and the view was stunning. Even the whales came to say hello. The room was great, the staff extremely helpful and friendly, the breakfast very good. If you are there over lunch time, the Ficks restaurant across the road has superb light meals.k
