    Beautiful beach potential, caring local community.

    Beautiful beach potential, caring local community. Good roads, LOTS of speed control. Unfortunately the victim of neglectful municipality, safety concerns and limited paying traffic causing a decay of local businesses and infrastructure.

    Richards Bay is a clean beautiful Town.

    Richards Bay is a clean beautiful Town. The cherry on the Cake is the Bay nd Pelican Island beach. The most beautiful clean beach is South Africa. I go there every year just to hve some of the beach nd swim in the bay. The nature reserves are also the best in South Africa, imagine yourself driving besides the zebras....awesomeness

    Great value for money

    Great value for money Swimming pool was amazing & very neat The staff was friendly I would have loved it more if breakfast can be provided Next time I would love to get a room on the side facing the sea, not that side we were facing those old ugly rondavel houses Room was very good with kitchen & bar fridge, the only concern was the fact that water from the shower wasn't hot, please sort that out The accommodation was very safe with locked gate operated by a remote I referred my sister Nomathemba Nene, she booked her stay around December 27 so you guys owe me a referral commission Regards PS Nene 0839811527

    The owner, Cheryl, is such a lovely person, always kept us inform before hand on new developments around the area. The place is a home away from home, the place is neat inside-out, spacious and a lovely garden outside, my little one really enjoyed running around the yard. There was nothing to worry about when it comes to safety for yourself, family, and the car. Wouldn't mind coming back to this place whenever I visit Richards Bay. Thank you so much Cheryl stay blessed and grow bigger in this industry.

    The location was quiet, far more than we had anticipated. It was easy to travel to the house from main centre of Richards Bay. There is a shopping centre close by. My friends forgot to lock the main door and the burglar guard but we only found out in the morning that it wasn't locked, it was very safe. The host met us at the gate with the key and kept checking up on us during the stay which we appreciated. The beds were comfortable.

    If was self catering so no one to blame on that but I did not even make the breakfast the kitchen is not up to the standard of making food you can put in your mouth was filthy dirty when ever someone decided to work under your name you must send healthy workers to keep on checking the properties hygiene time after time I did not expect something like this under booking .com.

    The place is super clean, comfortable and cosy. Near the beach and in a very quiet area which was a bonus. If you want some time away from eveything and everyones its the perfect place to be. The staff was friendly and the check in was super easy no struggles it didn't even take 2 minutes 😅

    The place is sparkling clean, spacious and comfortable. The housekeeping staff were very friendly and welcoming. I will definitely visit them again and again. The place is good value for money. I was running the Richards Bay Hippo Marathon and had good rest after the race.

    Close to the beach, close to the shopping complex and restaurants, all the attention was on us, a result of having just one room. We felt safe in the house and around the neighborhood. The breakfast was lovely and the service excellent

    The cleanliness of the house and the yard, including the pool, the hospitality was out of this world, Noelien which I’m guessing is the owner even took us to the beach upon checkout 😄😄
