The property had a spectacular view of the ocean however, it is in serious need of updating. The breakfast was wonderful. The showers and bathroom were not up to par and actually a fall risk.

Lovely location on the beach. Large well furnished room. Excellent host. General maintenance ongoing while we were there as some minor maintenance needed, but still happy to recommend this lovely place.

The property is ON the beach. The beach is beautiful to look at but dangerous to swim. Currents are dangerous. Not a place to swim. The Lodge itself is in bad need of repairs. As we call in America, I is a TEAR DOWN. Lovely vegetation are totally unkept, not maintained, not even cleaned.

Not what was expected
We were disappointed with the condition of the guest house. It is a bit run down and the bathroom was not what was advertised on the website. It is old and rusted and very small. The view and access to the beach was awesome and there are no complaints

Beach cottage casual but with elegant touches
An amazing venue - right on the beach. The decor is beach cottage casual and lots of little touches are found in the decor and amenities - your patio has a lounge chair with comfie cushions, there are beach towels as well as bath towels, air con and heating, electric blankets for the chilly winter nights to make the bed even more cosy, lovely linens, toiletries in the bathroom include items like bath salts and cotton pads, etc. The rooms are all different but all face the beach. There is a mini bar with wine, beer, snacks, drinks and water - all very reasonably priced. The rooms we stayed in had full kitchens, tables for eating at and games to play - all the thoughtful touches to welcome guests. In the morning, the breakfast is amazing with a large assortment of options, all served beautifully. Our car was even washed before we left. The host was helpful and a font of information for the area. Being able to walk along the beach to an amazing restaurant was lovely too. And not a touch of pink anywhere so don't let the name put you off. Highly recommended.

Wonderful setting, look out for the dolphins.
Lovely place, great views of beach and sea, lovely to get a background hum of the waves. Breakfast covered all bases and the breakfast room also make the most of the great views, with pods of dolphin going by every morning. Very good WiFi, full DSTV channels.

Rustic property in a great location
Overall this is a comfortable property situated right on the beach, but needs some investment !.

We booked the luxury room which was outdated and definitely needs a revamp (especially the bathroom). The pictures show a completely different bathroom.

AS You gave me no information I cannot answer your low rating of us, I find it extremely unfair to give us such a bad rating, without either discussing it with me. or giving reasons why you score us so poorley. And being Anonymous I cannot trace your stay at all
