    Friendly staff, very welcoming. Freshly baked bread every morning and oh the omelet was fully loaded and very tasty. It felt so good, eating breakfast whilst having a glance at the Beach view. I really enjoyed my stay, I could do it again and again.

    Nothing to complain about. It is superb.

    We liked everything and a nice bonus was no load shedding as they have solar. The host is fantastically helpful and super nice. He made us a super yum breakfast too.

    Nothing, it was great

    Stewart the host was really great, offered lots of advice , and the breakfast was really good! Reef view b&b is in a great location and we would not hesitate toto stay again when in EL. Secure & safe parking as well and due to solar and batteries, the accommodation is not affected by load shedding which is a great piece of mind.

    There is nothing not to like about this place.

    From the moment you arrive till when you leave you feel absolutely welcome here. The property is on solar so the is no loadshedding issues. The rooms are spacious and have everything one needs. The beds are out of this world on the comfort scale. Stuart makes a mean omelette for breakfeast. Definitely the best omelette I have had.

    The location is great, I enjoy the sea views in the mornings and sundown👌 The owner always convers with his guests, even when he's tired, you can see his hiding under that exhausted smile. This was my second stay at the the Reef View, and I enjoyed my stay. Glorious breakfast is something to look forward to, especially, the omellette, you can see it's made with love. Thank you Sir🙏

    Pool could be a little cleaner, although it was perfectly clean for swimming but I know keeping pools spotless especially if it rains is very challenging. Enjoyed my swims non the less.

    Beautiful location near the beach. Easy to walk to the beach. Good views. Clean rooms with air conditioning. Sheets and towels changed daily. Nice cooked breakfast.

    Stewart is a lovely host. We were traveling with our 2 boys (aged 3 and 4). Stewart was not only friendly but he also recommended places to go to in East London, which we tried out and were very happy. Breakfast was always great and a neat area to eat in. We were also fortunate that there was another family there with kids and everyone got along. Thank you for being a great host Stewart.

    Leaving :-). Bedroom could do with bigger drinking glasses as there is a bar fridge to keep beverages cold.

    Modern, safe, comfortable, well maintained and clean. Has solar and inverter to keep power during load shedding. Remember to take a costume as there is an awesome pool.

    Nothing honestly

    I totally loved my stay there, although very short over 1night. Good communication to help me find the place. Stewart was very helpful with my luggage and was patient with me as I checked in later than usual. He made the best egg benedict for breakfast 😋😋😋. Helped with leaving my things in his office as I headed for work 1st to fetch them right after
