    Nothing to add to the above - everything was good and we loved our stay there.

    • King Room with Garden View
    • Stayed 4 nights

    The hot tub was not working as there was a problem with the motor - no hair dryer or iron in the room as mentioned on the booking form, but on saying this, the host (and David) made sure they were in our room when we returned that evening.

    The location was good, we had a bathroom on suite, really nice, fully catered for with shower gel, towels etc. Take your own swimming towels as there are none - swimming pool stunning and spotlessly clean. David, the assistant to the owners was hands on, he saw that we had everything we needed and any questions asked, he answered with a smile. It was also very quiet which helped us relax.

    Have a hairdrier and a plug in the bathroom or mirror in the room....drinking glasses for whisky.

    We liked the cleanliness, friendly staff, tv programmes, ensuite, and the central location between the coast line. Wifi was excellent and easy to use. The host accommodated us with a single bed for one night for a guest, which was an add on.

    The noise of other guests at night and the banging of the doors as was scary. Being refused to do laundry while it was stipulated that there was a washing machine in the package I chose, it was unfair.

    The cleanliness of the facility and the distance to activities

    The ad on booking.com needs to be reviewed as the rooms didn't have facilities as mentioned. The jaccuzi was not operational A few suggestions: a bar fridge in the room would have been nice. Since there isn't an en suite bathroom, a mirror in the room would help when dressing No cooking facility... please provide an air fryer at least. A sink to place used dishes or a tray. Placing dirty dishes with food on it on the counter can cause cockroach infestation A bread board or like to be provided to help if making sandwiches. There's no dining table provided. I noticed guests taking their food into their bedroom for consumption. That's not good at all. No complaints, just suggesting to make the stay outstanding 👌

    The place is beautiful and well maintained. Beautiful gardens. The pool was clean although couldn't swim due to the cold. Very peaceful and well situated, close to many shops and places of interest Great value for money.

    If you want breakfast you have to order a night before. You have to pay extra in order to use the braai area and as well as the hot tub (If you want to use the hot tub you have to give 4 hour notice)

    The accommodation was nice and it was as seen on pictures

    It's not an easily accessible property.

    It was very quiet if you want to have rest. Also having a nice view facing the see. It's a secured place if you coming from another province.
