    Fantastic location directly on the beach. You have to drive a little to the nearest restaurant. We received some good recommendations.

    Pity about our Jacuzzi not working, otherwise no comments.

    Nice location, right on the beach. Our room had its own private jacuzzi but unfortunately it did not work as it should. What was nice was the general jacuzzi that gave a view of the ocean. Very nice to have a drink there. Breakfast was more than ok. Friendly staff and gave us the tip to go and eat at Café Gannet in the evening. Definitely DO!!!

    The kitchen works only for the breakfast and you are at least 1.5km from the closest restaurant, what means you will have to drive or call a taxi, since Uber doesn’t run there.

    Great property, right at the beach. The up rooms have a great view and balcony. They are specious, comfortable bed, big bathroom! Great breakfast and as usual, the staff is the best. They also have snacks and drinks available, which is awesome, specially on a beach house.

    Nothing to dislike

    The host, Joy was extremely helpful when we had a problem with our car. We were very stressed and she helped make the necessary phone calls and the staff kept us hydrated and energised with coffee. These small touches made a whole world of difference.

    It was hard to get ice after hours in the evening when we wanted to enjoy a night cap. An ice machine would have been nice but I can see the difficulties with the load sharing happening.

    The breakfast was sufficient and the hit breakfasts were very well prepared. People were very willing to please . We asked for the French press coffee and they brought the carafe to our table of four.

    Beyond the control of African Oceans, construction was ongoing beside their structure and so there was noise during the day and our ocean view was obstructed.

    The staff was very kind and extremely informative. They provided us with great restaurant choices and took care of our transportation.

    Swimming pool was tiny. No bars or restaurants within walking distance. One of their recommendations for eating was a great disappointment’Ocean Basket’

    The breakfast was excellent. Enjoyed having the jacuzzi near our room. So glad we had a first floor room, much more private and the view of the ocean was amazing

    The pool is barely bigger than the jacuzzi. The sea at the accomodation is a bit rougher than further in the city. The breakfast was ok, but nothing special.

    Directly by the sea, nice patio to enjoy the sun.

    Loved it all. No restaurant there but we bought our own food for the evening (shops 4 min drive away). To be honest having dinner on our own on the balcony made a lovely change to weeks of restaurants!

    Fabulous view. We stayed in the Presidential Suite and had our dinner on the balcony overlooking the ocean. The hot tub was perfect for sipping a couple of beers listening to the ocean. Staff friendly and parking behind gates. All felt welcoming and safe.

    The room was good, but basic. So maybe the price was more than it is worth. We came there in the Christmas day (25.12) and this day there was nobody working after 12. We made a self check in, which was fine, but I don't think this place is 5 stars.

    The highlight of this place is the jacuzzi. It was nice to be there watching the view.
