Liesl South Africa

Comfortable beds, fairly well equipped kitchen, spacious living and braai areas. Proximity to the beach. Free wifi was great too. The place was well equipped to cope with load shedding.

Christine South Africa

The area is fantastic. People are interesting. Seafood is delicious.

Hennie South Africa

We had a lovely stay at Lavender cottage. The welcome from Moses was very friendly and helpful. The cottage is really a large two story house with a private patio and braai area. it is very tastefully decorated and had all amenities. just 2 minutes walk from the beach and 10 min walk to the center of town with many restaurant options. everything felt very safe and the town itself felt like being on a Greek island.

Jonathan United Kingdom

Lavender Cottage has a superb location - it’s even got a slight sea view but in any case is less than 100m from the beach. Well presented 2 bedroom house with everything you need for a long weekend or indeed a week!!
