    The Host was extremly helpfull and friendly. Due to the delay of the arrival of our car by ship in PE we had to extend our stay several times. She organized a room for us for the date, when Algoa was completely booke during Christmas holidays. Great thanks to our host! Good breakfast with fresh fruit salad. Nice and polite staff. Highly recommanded!

    Edouard is a great host - friendly, easy-going, very accommodating and accessible, and keeps the communication channels open which made the stay so easy and enjoyable. Breakfast was great - a combination of cereals, yoghurts, juices, tea, coffee, and a cooked breakfast. There might have even been fruit, I usually ignore those sorts of things (fruit) :) The weather was a bit miserable so didn't get a chance to get in the pool ... next time!
