    Nothing, no issues

    Candice and Donsie went out off their way to accommodate us. Whalesong is definitely highly recommended. Cindi the chef spoiled us every morning with an extraordinary breakfast and Mkhozi cleaned the rooms every morning friendly and speedily. Whalesong deserves 5 stars.

    Nothing, except perhaps a stronger water pressure for the shower.

    Excellent very comprehensive buffet breakfast, even the homemade banana bread was the best we had ever tasted! The hosts were exceptionally helpful and arranged the excursions for us and suggested our programme for our four day stay, according to our interests. We had use of the pretty little garden and swimming pool and a secure, gated large private car park. Such easy access to wildlife, that even roamed the streets of the town, especially morning and evening, lovely beaches, a dune forest with beautiful rare birds and a number of very good restaurants serving delicious seafood platters in the town.

    Nothing was bad really.

    Colleen was a wonderful host who was kind enough to inform us of all the wonderful things to do in the area and when the best times to do them were. She also lent us some towels and binoculars for the beach and for game viewing. Really some of the best hospitality I have ever had.

    Excellent location of guest house, we were warmly greeted as we entered the premises by the owner of the guest house. We were given the various activities on offer at St Lucia, so much to see and do. The bird life and environment is amazing. We thoughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend this place as a stress free family retreat to anyone, very quite and peaceful. Breakfast was amazing and very tasty. This is one of the best bnb's that i personally have stayed in by far.

    I didn't like that we had to leave.

    An amazing host with passion for what she does. Big spacious room with excellent quality bedding. Colleen has extensive knowledge of the area and suggested all points of interest. The breakfasts were divine. Our halal needs were more than catered for. The freshly baked bread and the shared recipe will forever be remembered.
