|Arrived in the dark and was difficult to find.

Niven was the perfect host and breakfast was one of the best we have had especially the home baked muffins

On arrival you might think you took a wrong turn but wait until you relaxed and experienced the beautiful beach and it's people

The owner so friendly and his dog so adorable although I'm afraid of dogs, the breakfast prepared by the own was so nice, the beach was marvelous, place is very safe with lovely people

A small oasis in a great landscape. Fantastic host. A very special place.

Not really anything of great importance - the squeaky ventilator when rotating at a higher speed

We liked the garden, the nicely set-up-room with a well equipped kitchenette, a vey complete breakfast, the very friendly owner and the location. A nice restaurant with a nice view towards the river walking distance away.

We couldn't find the place because there aren't any signs up. You need to put up a big sign with the name of the place and an arrow pointing in the right direction. The roads are in a terrible state in the entire area. Small cars are a big no-no!

This is a hidden gem. Set in beautiful gardens, the room is exactly as the pictures show. Clean, neat, and cozy. The breakfast was excellent, absolutely delicious. Niven was a great host, very helpful and knowledgeable about the area.

We got lost there is no signage on the main road

Very quiet place when you want to rest

Loved the property. The area would be a gem if developed a bit further. Sanral and dept of transport need to deliver on their promises to repair the roads leading to Coffee bay. This community has waited long enough.

Very friendly and comfortable. Location is a bit difficult. Make sure to fully stock for a self catering experience. Breakfast was great, so dont miss out on that. Good restaurants, especially Jac’s. For snacks and bits and pieces rather bring with.

Everything was top notch

Very very sweet place. A lovely garden garden that makes you feel in a little bubble out of time , very nice bedrooms with lots of space and a small kitchen to be independent, spotless clean. In itself , the property deserve a 10 out of 10. But what makes it extra special is the very kind owner , Niven, going the extra mile for you, cooking delicious breakfast, giving you tips and always making you feel welcome. It is a very special place , and honestly for the price you have a 3 star service. Really the best quality ratio I had so far in a month and a half in South Africa , don’t hesitate to go there. The road leading to Coffee bay was repaired so you can definitely access with all kind of cars and so did I either my little Toyota Aygo . Thanks again

There was nothing

Everything was great. A very pleasant quite relaxing establishment with an extremely friendly dog and a few ducks to add to the rural atmosphere. The host was excellent and the breakfasts were out of this world. Will definitely stay here next time that we are in Coffee Bay. Niven was also very helpful with restaurant suggestions.

Getting there - but that is outside the control of the property to be honest. Its an all round issue at Coffee Bay

The breakfast was soooooo good. The host was amazing and super ftiendly. The beds were comfortable. They provided drinking water also. The coffee sachets were great since there are no coffee options around.

The host Niven was very kind and considerate. From the heads up on his direction on a road that is not simple. He welcomes us well and was very helpful about all our questions. And the lovely breakfast was the chery on top. The place was also very clean.
