Booked Ocean View for my sister and her partner. They were so impressed with the friendliness they received even before arrival. Even the dogs are super friendly. They felt really at home and cared for. All the facilities were excellent and the closeness to the beach was an added bonus. Ocean View can be highly recommended.

The property features pool and garden views, and is 1.4 km from Manaba Beach. The property offers allergy-free units and is set 8.8 km from Mbumbazi Nature Reserve.

I like the friendliness of the couple that ran the place, Irene and Nico. They lent us their fan and their own electronic massager, and most importantly, lent us their braai stand that was nearer to out room. They introduced us to their kids and introduced our dog to their dogs. Made sure the pool was clean, even of leaves that fell in just before. They respected that it was our honeymoon and gave us privacy when we needed. We had a lovely view of the beach. We had a kettle, bar fridge, tv and microwave in our room. They set up a table for us outside as we did not want out dog to disrupt the other guest while we had breakfast.
