    We loved the living area and kitchen and the fact that some lights stayed on during loadshedding. We enjoyed using the weber braai. The house is in a quiet and peaceful area and close enough to walk to the beach. Karlie was amazing and promptly sorted out any enquiry.

    Ron and team were excellent, attentive and caring. Real luxurious stay yet very comfortable and homely. Breakfast was 5-star levels, dinner equally delicious. You should try their wine. They helped us with transport when we were stranded. Wishing them many years more of luxury hosting

    The accommodation had all the amenities available such as the swimming pools, play area for the kids, gym, tennis courts and braai facilities. I liked the door safe facility, really great idea. The place was peaceful and quiet mostly, residents were friendly and the gardens are well kept. Really awesome hiking trails in the area and close to shopping malls. Great booking facility and great services from the host, Este.
