Had a wonderful stay at the Sanctuary while doing an art workshop. Felt like home from home. Comfortable accommodation, friendly reception and interaction with staff and amazing breakfast every morning. Slept well in a spacious room which had a small bar fridge and coffee/tea station. Ideally situated to be able to walk to lovely places to eat out at in the evening. Will definitely be back to visit this lovely town and stay here again. Thank you Andre and the ladies for looking after me!

I had a wonderful stay at The Sanctuary in Prince Albert. Andre was an incredibly responsive and helpful host, making sure everything ran smoothly. The guesthouse is perfectly located on the main road yet remains peaceful and quiet. The pool and outside area was a highlight for me, with a shaded spot at the pool steps where I could sit and read my book in the water (great for the 35 degree+ days ☀️!). The room was clean, cosy, and comfortable, and the breakfast spread was simple yet delicious.

What a beautiful house: high ceilings, broekie-lace verandah, large bedrooms, extra-large bathrooms, great aircon and fans (very welcome in the heat), fabulous pool. Centrally located on the main street, within easy walking distance of all the shops and restaurants. The breakfasts were fantastic and our host was genial and staff were friendly and efficient. We loved our 3 days in this pretty town and couldn't have chosen a better location or a more comfortable and luxurious place to stay.

Room number 6 (upstairs, with a king bed), was spacious - a lovely space to relax. But I did find the bed very hard - I prefer a softer bed.

Our bedroom and bathroom were both lovely. Incredibly spacious, light and comfortable and a lot of thought and attention to detail was evident. The bathroom had a shaver/electric toothbrush socket and in the bedroom for example there was a dressing table with a mirror and hairdryer where you could actually plug it in and see what you were doing, much appreciated and quite rare! Breakfast was generous and delicious and the pool and sitting area outside was very pretty and welcome as we had hot weather whilst we were there. Very good tips and advice from the host about places to visit and where to eat etc. I highly recommend The Sanctuary. Thank you Andre.

The only negative really was the front bedrooms (we were in one) had a bit of traffic noise from the main road early in the morning, so if this would bother you I recommend asking for a room set back from the street.

Perfect location,breakfast was amazing,the attention to detail,linen napkins, beautifully set table and perfect coffee.The staff are friendly and Andre makes one feel very much at home,very helpful with regard to,where too eat and what to go visit.Will certainly be back,for a swim in the sparkling pool.Lovely little fire in morning while enjoying one's breakfast, and not to forget the Nespresso machine,in my room for early rises or late night owls.

Nothing.There was absolutely nothing negative to say about host or establishment.

The Sanctuary lives up to its name. After a bad experience at another guesthouse, we were welcomed by Andre with open arms. Andre was very kind and did everything possible to ensure we enjoyed our stay in Prince Albert. The full English breakfast was extraordinary & the best we have had during our trip in South Africa. Apart from the English breakfast they also provided us yoghurt & fruits, some homemade granola and homegrown mangos which were very tasteful! If you would like to make a stop in Prince Albert, don't hesitate to book your stay at the Sanctuary!

We had a small concern with the room that was immediately attended to, really appreciate that. The house and decor is gorgeous and a fantastic host. The pool was a lifesaver in mid summer. The breakfast was great with home made granola which they really should sell!). Overall a lovely stay and would recommend.

Being a guest house, with other people oom home you are aware of other people’s coming and going etc.

Andre and Lisa are super hosts and really welcomed us into their house. They have totally renovated The Sanctuary in the past couple of years - the result is uplifting. Rooms are large with excellent beds and bathrooms, air conditioning, fridges. There are a plethora of dining options in pretty Prince Albert, we spent the evening walking up the high street, popping into art galleries, having a glass of wine in the Cookery School before dinner. Great sleep followed by a gourmet breakfast incorporating local (actually home grown papaya juice - seasonal I guess), yoghurt, home made muesli, muffins, fruit, and a full fried breakfast with local produce. Oh and they have a large pool and car parking. A highly recommended place in which to stay. Thanks again.

I would strongly recommend the Sanctuary to anybody looking to stay in Prince Albert. It is perfectly located within walking distance of many restaurants, stores, museum, church and even the dairy. The rooms are comfortable with lovely wooden floors and upstairs balcony is a lovely spot to watch the sun go down over the mountains with a drink in hand. Breakfast is a treat. the fresh fruit and the freshly squeezed orange juice are exceptional. The staff are friendly and willing to help and Andre is a fabulous host. I hope to make it back with my family in the future.

André' our host was extremely kind, friendly and attentive. He treated us like royalty. Rooms were immaculate. Clean and comfortable bedding. Beautiful home, stunning garden and pool. Delicious breakfast, outstanding. Topnotch! Loved our stay. Feeling so blessed to have had the privilege of experiencing the best accommodation in Prins Albert Rd. Beautiful experience and we shall return. Thank you André.
