Excellent one-night stay

This was an excellent stay. The hotel contacted us in advance to offer early access to the room and to confirm our arrival time. The hotel manager, Wonderful, was a welcoming and helpful host. The room was super clean, spacious and very comfortable with a wonderful sea view. The hotel is within walking distance of a good restaurant and grocery and wine stores are near by. Could not have asked for more.

Boende med fantastisk utsikt

Jättefint boende med fantastisk utsikt, ägarinnan, kvinnan och killen som jobbade där var alla trevliga och hjälpsamma med tips m.m Låg en bit utanför byn men vi använde uber taxi som var billigt och bekvämt. Höga backar upp till boendet, vi fick ibland pausa men det var det absolut värt.

Tarumhafte Aussicht

Fußbodentiefe Fenster. Phantastischer Blick über die Bucht. Freundliches Personal. Absolut empfehlenswert. Wir haben 40 - 60 Minuten mit dem PKW bis zur Waterfont benötigt. Für alle Reisenden die nicht in der Stadt wohnen möchten, stellt dieses guesthouse eine gute Alternative dar.

Maison moderne et confortable, mais sans âme

Une maison moderne, face a la mer, un style dépouillé et un très bon lit. Mais c'est une maison sans âme et trop loin de Cape Town pour en faire une base pour découvrir la région. La voiture est nécessaire pour aller ou que ce soit et le choix de restaurants dans les environs est limité. Nous n'y avons passe qu'une nuit, sans regret.
