Offering an outdoor pool surrounded by a landscaped garden, African Ambience Guest House is located in St Lucia which is part of the iSimangaliso Wetland Park. Free WiFi is available and the beach is within 2 km.

The building, property, appointments, art are each and all lovely. The hosts answered all my questions and made arrangements for me to see the hippos. Breakfast- really good buffet choices and hot foods if you want. Above and beyond- hosts did a night drive with me to try to find hippos (no luck) and I was made a nice simple sandwich whenI arrived (I'd been in a car for 6 hours and needed to leave for my hippo boat). Really- so glad I stayed here.

Elné was an amazing host. She gave great advice about what to do in the area. She even went out of her way (twice!) to offer us a packed breakfast. The guest house itself was spotless and very comfortable. Most of the rooms face the pool, which is great for cooling off on a hot afternoon. Thank you!

    Andre is a great host, very friendly and welcoming. We had a lovely stay, comfortable and quiet, great value for money, and we even saw some hippos right on the street in front of his house at night. Fantastic experience. We will be back for sure!

    Bonita is a great host. The guesthouse is beautiful and well located. We will absolutely come back. Breakfast was amazing too. Tell Bonita what you want, and she will arrange everything. The hippo boats are within walking distance. For the other tours they will pick you up right at their door.

    Amanda is a great host,she was available whenever we needed her. The house is fully equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We were not affected by Load Shedding or power failure as the house is almost totally of the grid! Great location close to everything. I would definitely recommend checking in at Sea's the day!

    We spent 4 nights at the lodge and we really enjoyed it despite rainy weather. Andre is a friendly and reliable host with lots of local stories and happy to share his experiences. The chalet is cosy and comfortable with everything you need for self catering. If you look for a quiet place for resting in a beautiful garden and you love birds : this is the place. Great location at walking distance of restaurants and shops and from the forest walk at the edge of town. Unbeatable value for money !

    Everything. Marlize was a wonderful host who really helped us organize everything we needed for our stay including helping us book some activities. The guest house is stunning, very clean and quiet but is still very close to everything that we needed. We will definitely be back next time we are in St Lucia.

    Great location on the outer quiet part of town. Excellent host who helps in every way he can, gives advices and helps book tours (though you might want to book ahead for some as they can fill up). Very good breakfast, even to go when going out early. Rooms are decent size. Lovely garden.

    I was here for 11 nights and it was really a very nice stay. Amore is a great host and I felt right at home. The room is really big, very nice and was very clean. The bed was super comfortable and breakfast was also wonderful. The location was also great. Very quiet and in 8 minutes you could walk to the main street. I can definitely recommend it to others. Thank you very much for the great stay.

    Good location, nice and quiet. The property is a real window into the past....very much part of a bygone age, with memories of childhood family holidays in a simpler time. I found it to be delightful and, apart from the bedroom with double bed, very spacious. Imelda was a charming host, extremely helpful without being intrusive. I would most definitely return if I still lived in South Africa....but then again, who knows?

    I have never experienced such a lovingly furnished guest house. Attention was paid to every detail. The host couple is incredibly nice and takes care of all the little things. I am blown away and totally recommend this guesthouse.
