The Breakfast was good, service good, staff friendly

The fact that a lot of the time I had no water to shower or flush the toilet for days at a time, I was having to pour water into the toilet tank to flush. This was a civic problem however l feel that there should be a back up plan such as water storage tanks that are kept full at times when water is available. This spoilt holiday as life was very uncomfortable due to the heat and lack of being able to.shower.

Breakfast was divine!!! Our stay was incredible, the owners were lovely and very accommodating and the ladies were all very friendly. Beds were super comfy which is NB as my husband ran comrades so he needed this to be top notch and it was. We will definitely be back next year and next time we will order the ribs for dinner.

Nothing, Liked everything

Quiet neighbourhood. Lots of space to relax. Friendly staff. Storage for your clothes and stuff. Mini fridge for anything you want to keep cool or preserve. Lamps for a romantic night. En-suite bath. Very clean. Delicious breakfast. Included Wi-Fi. Veronique and her staff are not intrusive at all and give you your privacy. The old man (Ronnie I reckon), is a laid back and nice fellow. We cracked a few jokes. Would definitely return here.

Don't get me wrong, the physical state of the property is in great condition, but the missing grid/grate/mixer top on the wash hand basin is a bit concerning. It's small things like that which take away a measly point from an otherwise perfect place.

Hosts were very friendly, both John and Veronique went out of their way to make us feel at home. The omelette that V made on the first morning was superb and really lives up to its high recommendations and the English style the next morninng was also devine. Not forgetting the lovely muffins freshly baked. Having breakfast next to the fishes was calming, all our refreshments were brought to our table without even lifting a finger.. was really impressed with the exceptional service we recieved during breakfast. Room was really spacious with mini bar fridge, kettle, cutlery and tea and coffee with Dstv and a flat screen TV to give you the best entertainment while you are on break. Room had both a fancy Fan and Luxurious aircon to keep you cool during the Hotter days. Pool was kept very clean and tidy during our stay and John takes real pride in his property and entertainment area. PS: Try viewing the pool at night, its amazing Entertainment area had a microwave, braai facilities and utensils not forgetting all the Trophies if you into game and hunting. The cherry on top was being able to chill on the Roof top with some camp master chairs and just enjoy the scenery of the beach and surroundings. Veronique went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable up there. Houskeeping was done daily and room was very clean during our stay.

That our holiday had to end because a weekend wasn't enough. Really wish i can go back to visit.

Having an iron/steamer in the rooms would be great.Although they do iron for guests at a next to nothing fee
