David, South Africa

Greeted by Melissa, she looked after us after such a long drive. She made us feel very welcome. Joy and Louis helped make us feel a part of the family, with all the hints and travel and whale/bird watching tips, their hospitality was wonderful. Breakfast was delicious every day.

Julian, United Kingdom

Very comfortable accommodation and great attention was paid to details.

Maureen, South Africa

Joy and Louis were great hosts. Whale phone is a fabulous place to stay.

Deborah, United Kingdom

Breakfast was great, the views are lovey and they had a cute dog called Zara, there's lots of nice birds in the garden. Rooms are simple but clean.

Michaela, United Kingdom

The view, value for money and very friendly staff.

Alwaba, South Africa

Joy & Louis are fantastic hosts. They prepared an excellent breakfast and entertain the discussions. They make sure you feel home. The view from the property is outstanding and we were lucky to see whales.

Thierry, Switzerland

Louis und Joy sind absolut liebenswerte Gastgeber und helfen besonders mit wertvollen Tips/Kartenmaterial. Auch beim Frühstück waren sie beide besonders bemüht einem alles Recht zu machen. Auch die Lage mit Blick über die Bucht ist bei der wohl eher B&B Unterkunft (5 Zimmer) sehr schön. Als Tip:wir würden nächstes mal wohl eher ein DZ nehmen,da auch das Balkon hatte und im oberen Bereich liegt

You are sharing the balcony with other people, so if you're laying in bed in the morning, there are some people in front of your sliding door. I didn't mind that, but maybe if you're a couple, this can be disturbing.
The view is awesome. The landlords are really kind. The breakfast was really good. It was really clean!

“We were shocked to see how low the level of the s/c room was. The only ocean view is outside”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Apartment with Ocean View
- • Stayed 5 nights
- • Submitted via mobile
The steep driveway to a landing with 8 open wooden stairs and more paving going down to the s/c room. I phoned Louis and Joy to inform them that this information was not on booking.com and the way up and down would hurt my replaced knee. Louis promised that Joy would arrange alternative accommodation in another guesthouse. They did not contact us again and did not keep their promise. We stayed the full 5 days and I was struggling with my walking stick up and down to our room.There is no flat screen TV and cable channels as advertised. Only SABC 4 channels and a 5th channel. This old model TV is high on the closet. There are only 3 upright uncomfortable dining room chairs to sit and watch TV or perched on the bed. The picture of the beach on booking.com is misleading. The beach is much further than it appears in the ad. There is no mention of the railroad which one has to cross to get to the beach. There are lots of black mould on the grouting of the tiles in the shower. The broom and mop are kept openly next to the toilet. Booking.com should update their website about this guesthouse. I will not recommended it ever. It was an unpleasant, uncomfortable and painful experience
Fresh towels regularly. Friendly room staff
