    One of the outlets in the front bedroom didn’t work, but the host provided an extension cord so I could get access to power in that room. I chose not to use the clothes washer due to a mildew smell. This is normal for front load washers, but I would recommend seeing about getting the washer drum cleaned if possible. The bed was a bit firm for my taste. Would suggest a memory foam mattress topper if possible.

    The location was exceptional. Loved the views of the ocean and the sunrises. Property felt safe and secure. I liked being on the upper floor above the garage. The host was responsive and accommodating with any needs. The place was comfortably furnished and had everything I needed for my stay. I enjoyed a nice soaking bath in the bathtub, and the water pressure in the shower was excellent! The braii on the balcony was a fun new experience for this American! I’m very grateful for an overall pleasant experience at Sombedu Guest Suite!

    Everything was excellent.

    The property was well-maintained with extraordinary views. Our hosts went above and beyond to provide us with exceptional service, including bringing us a lighter when we had forgotten ours, so we were able to start our braai.

    😊🥰 It was clean, has everything you need - Braai stand, dishes, pots and appliances.With plugs and adapters to charge - you don't have to carry it. Its in a very quiet street...With a nice view of the beach....You'll hear the birds chirping in the morning - So peaceful. I would've been nice if they also had a swimming pool, but either way - it was awesome.

    Stayed here with my family for a few days and we felt really welcome. The host was very accommodating and helpful, even suggesting options for places we could find food due to our late night check-in. The unit was well equipped with what we needed and felt like a home away from home.
