Our best accommodation in South Africa. The view in the common room, on the terrace (we even saw dolphins) and in the room (Elephant room) is incredible and stunning. The heads view point is very close. The service was outstanding. Deborah, Crystal and the whole team were so friendly, made great trip suggestions and even made the reservation for us. We will definitely recommend the guest house.

First of all, the cleanliness of the property was impeccable. As someone who is very particular about cleanliness, I was impressed by the attention to detail and how well-maintained the property was. The linens were fresh, the bathroom was spotless, and the entire apartment was tidy and organized. As someone who traveled with my 5-year-old son, I appreciated the thoughtful touches that were put in place to make our stay more comfortable. But what really set this accommodation apart was the hospitality of the hosts. They were extremely friendly, welcoming, and communicative throughout our stay. They were always available to answer any questions we had and made sure that we had everything we needed to feel at home. Overall, I had a fantastic experience and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, child-friendly, and hospitable place to stay.
