    We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful guest house! From the moment we arrived, the staff's warm smiles and welcoming nature made us feel right at home. The staff also ironed our clothes. Rene as the host, was incredibly helpful and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure our needs were met. The view from our room was absolutely breathtaking. It was the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. And let's not forget the breakfast, it was absolutely delicious! The fruit from the salad was fresh and the main breakfast was to die for!! Overall, I'd highly recommend this guest house to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with exceptional hospitality.

    Currently, and I'm sure it's for a very short time, they are undergoing some renovations around the property. Even though they are doing that, the place is neat. It doesn't feel like a construction site. And they're taking the guests' needs into account. I tip my hat to them for that.

    The staff and the owner are exceptionally friendly and accommodating. The room was very well-appointed and comfortable, with all the amenities you could ever want. It felt like I was staying at my own house.

    Shower was a little low on pressure

    Staff was helpful and friendly. Was a more a feeling of staying with friends as apposed to a guest house. Breakfast on the terrace was lovely with the "wild life" and sea views.

    There was no aspect of my stay that i did not enjoy or didn't like, the attention to detail was one of the best i have ever experienced at a Bed and Breakfast, all effort is made to provide individual attention and comfort, also special effort was made to meet dietary requirements and my breakfast was first class.

    I was travelling for business and my schedule was accommodated with a delicious early breakfast, the friendly host was personally involved in ensuring that all aspects of my accommodation surpassed my expectations. I will certainly rebook at Seaview Manor Exquisite Bed & Breakfast.

    Rene and her team went above and beyond to ensure I had everything I needed during my stay. I was warmly greeted on arrival, and Ningi kindly took my luggage to the room and made sure I was comfortably settled in. Rene even upgraded me to an upper-level suite with just a few steps, as I have some difficulty walking, this was such thoughtful hospitality! The check-in process was effortless thanks to their online registration system, which meant no delays when I arrived. The room was immaculate, with plenty of fresh towels, and the personalised embroidered linen was truly exceptional, I’ve never seen anything like it in another guesthouse. What a treat! As promised, the views were simply breathtaking. Breakfast was another highlight, you complete an online menu the night before, and when I arrived at the dining table, the staff had everything perfectly prepared. The omelette I ordered was delicious. Well done to Rene and her wonderful team for all the extra touches and thoughtful details that made my stay so enjoyable. I’ll definitely be back on my next visit to La Lucia.
