"Great value for money. Rooms were clean and bed very comfy. Fantastic location and great food !"

"Great value for money! The owners are very nice and friendly. It’s a nice property and very clean and walking distance to the beach. Definitely recommend it! "

"The initial arrival when we parked in the public parking raised some concerns, however the lovely hotel security lady quickly intervened and directed us to the proper hotel parking, from that point it was fantastic! The room was spotless, big and well appointed. But THE VIEWS!… WOW!!! The hotel certainly lives up to the name! The staff were all brilliant from the moment we arrived to the point we had to sadly check out. We will be back again!!"

"A lovely stay as always."

"Lovely quiet location right on the beach. Big clean room n bathroom. Deon and Leanne and team are great host. The best beach Villa experience while touring garden route."

"What a wonderful experience. Accommodation was exceptional. Restaurant was better than some Michelin Starred places we have visited. Food was out of this world. Service from Chantelle ( may be slightly different name, but young lady with red hair) was top class. Even the owner, lent us beach equipment. Rudolf was a brilliant host as was his lovely wife. What a gem of a place. Thanks also to Ben."

"Great stop off point on the Garden route. Hotel had great views across the ocean and nearby town and close enough to amenities to have a social gathering wander across to them. Room immaculate with great facilities. "

"Beautiful views and great potential, but the experience felt rushed and a bit flat. The property sits on expansive land with roaming wildlife, including zebras — a real highlight. There are colour coded hiking routes across the property, which are a nice addition. Staff were friendly, and dinner was delicious — a beautifully cooked beef dish followed by dessert. However, it was a fixed meal with no menu or choice, which didn’t match reviews praising a full restaurant experience. This could be problematic for guests with dietary requirements. Our room was comfortable, especially the bed, but the layout felt odd, with a lot of unused space in the middle. We were also woken early by loud banging from the coffee station above — it really should be moved. We used the spa after hiking, as recommended at check-in, and were told it would be ready by 4pm. But when we arrived, there was no one there to greet us. The sauna was on, but the steam room hadn’t been switched on, and the jacuzzi still wasn’t warm — suggesting it hadn’t been prepped in time. Eventually, a staff member did show up and stayed past closing to accommodate us, which we appreciated. Still, it felt like a miscommunication between staff and showed a lack of attention to detail. If the facilities aren’t always ready, guests should be encouraged to pre-book. The pool robot sat in the water on both days and seemed off. A beautiful setting, but it needs more polish. Glad we stayed, but wouldn’t rush back just yet"
