Perfect location. Beautiful view. Clean and spacious room. Safe parking.
South AfricaI'd loved the bathroom and the view.. waking up to the sound of the sea was amazing that was the highlight of my stay.
South Africaeverything was perfect, the wifi was strong, the breakfast was well presented. The covid 19 compliance was well observed across the hotel. Overall the hotel score a 10 for me.
South AfricaOn checking out the white lady with tatoos i did not get her name... was very rude. I was not pleased with her attitude and the way she treated us on our departure was terrible. She has no professional ethics wat so ever.
South AfricaBreakfast was great! Relaxing!!!! The sound of the Ocean was soothing. I wouldn't mind going again just to hear myself think
South AfricaFriendly staff and the linen was and the room was clean.
South AfricaLiked it alot, but hoping for a better and free inside parking next stay🤞
