    The breakfast was nice I just wish they had a small menu of what they are offering for English breakfast so that a person can select what they would like to have. Otherwise we had a lovely stay and our hosts were very welcoming and friendly.

    So clean and very pretty with lots of benches to stop and contemplate - the boardwalk and promenade was so nice. Very quiet and one of the best kept resorts in SA I think. Not much to do but relax and swim, but in easy reach of East London and suburbs and Chintsa etc.

    Our stay at Purple Haze was fanstastic!

    Our stay at Purple Haze was fanstastic! Louf and Thembi were warm and welcoming. Purple Haze is so peaceful and a perfect escape from our busy lives. The rooms are clean, comfortable and fully equiped. We were surrounded by breathtaking views of the beach and the Cintsa landscape. We would definitely visit again. A perfect mother and daughter vacation stay. Thank you Louf and Thembi ( MamZangwa).

    I have worked here as a SAPS Officer, Station Commanders we would visit different areas from time to time so I know the area but was in hospital on this trip. I ordered in for my family and they enjoyed the different meals delivered by Uber Eats. I asked my hubby to go out with our little one to Hemingway's for retail therapy and entertainment just so she has beautiful memories as bonus

    The place is beautiful, modern, clean, with great sea-views, however I would not recommend it because the hosts are very strict and they also live on the property top floor. They don't even allow day visitors, my sister and her 2 kids came to visit and this was a big issue for the hosts even though they were not even going to sleep over. The hosts even confronted my sister for being on the property which I felt was very inappropriate, it was enough that they talk to me only about this and not make my visitor feel unwelcome. The Wi-Fi connectivity is very poor, even phone calls don't come through even during times when there is no load shedding. I had to go uphill to make calls or receive messages, I could not hold my virtual meetings, had to go out daily to nearby restaurants for better reception.

    Its people, the overall view and location of the city. facelifting could help revitalise it to its full potential. the upgrading of the beach front has improved its look and feel but more development is required around the beach especially in Quigney to lighten up the beachfront.

    Bad weather otherwise good. Versailles, if signposted not visible from street. Chinese place dreadful for takeaways. Pancake parlour not good either Should have eaten at bed and breakfast but pricey. Otherwise ate with relatives. I'd avoid the above and eat a breakfast at the b'n'b.

    The city and surrounding areas are clean and everything is close. Just a few minutes drive from the airport. The city its self seems a little run down but still clean and feels safe. The people are very friendly and the seafood is delicious.
