Great views of the bay from our spacious one bedroom suite. Restaurant was very good also with sea views. Pool is a bit small with limited towels and loungers.

Beautiful resort, very clean, is looking a little tired, needs minor cosmetic paint maintenance.
Otherwise the views, great housekeeping, great food and drinks downstairs make it phenomenal place.

The villa unit was very comfortable and had lovely sea views from the main room and balcony. The housekeeping was good, just need more attention to detail when replenishing tea sachets for the next morning. Reception was initially not overly welcoming, but thereafter a gent named Nkosi was excellent in helping us.

Our stay was wonderful.
As a single mom, I felt security visibility would have been comforting. Maybe consider having securities at night during peak periods.

Best guesthouse we stayed at during our trip to South Africa! Stunning property right on the beach, you can spot dolphin from your balcony early morning.. priceless! Deon & Leane have a true sense of hospitality and we only wish we could have stayed longer. Thank you for making our b'day celebrations so special and memorable!

Spacious room with breathtaking Ocean view. Very comfortable bed with great size.
Water pressure is constantly changing and too low for a good shower.
Staff seems to be allowed to use the Gym as well and doesn't do so properly.

Watching dolphins
We booked this last minute as we had to cancel our other accommodation. The rooms are beautiful with balconies looking out over the beautiful sea. We had booked a superior suite but were upgraded to a larger one. We were able to lie in bed and watch the dolphins swim through the bay. The staff were extremely helpful and the on site restaurant offered fabulous food and views. You can also self cater here. Dispute there being many sized rooms, suites,cottages etc it never felt crazy busy and at times there was only us by the pool.
