Dave, South Africa

10 star accommodation. Loved the extra long bed. Our own sitting room and well equipped kitchen. Private patio with an amazing view. (Suite 1) Best breakfast ever. Every item on the menu is delicious. Andre and Mathilda went above and beyond to see to our comfort. Winter bedding when we were cold, fans when we were hot. Helpful suggestion of where to eat and what to explore. Friendly staff. Wonderful location. Parking. And we saw the dolphins every day!

“ONE OF THE ACCOMMODATION GEMS AT THE WILDERNESS.”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Suite with Sea View
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉I didn't like the fact that we had to guess the name of Andre' the owner, as he never introduced himself to us at all on arrival. He did show us all the facilities as he showed us to our room, which was good. His wife did introduce herself to us at breakfast on the second day, however, when i had paid the balance owing for our accommodation, we were not asked if we enjoyed our stay.
눇The comfort as per the website was exactly as we expected it on arrival. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, and the view spectacular. The breakfast was adequate although i feel there could be some improvement. The eating area was very nice and the service was good.
