    There's no washing machine.

    We recently stayed at Karibu during the December holidays for a week. We loved the modern style apartment. The apartment was very neat and clean. We felt very welcome and stayed comfortable during our time there. The rates of staying there is well worth spending! We felt safe and relaxed during our stay. It's a bonus to have the sea just down the road, close enough to walk.

    The fact that we had to leave

    We stayed at the Karibu Self-Catering Accommodation and loved every minute. We just loved staying here. It is home away from home. We had to most outstanding stay. The location is perfect. The views were awesome and the accommodation just beautiful. A beautiful little house, so very comfy, spotlessly clean and welcoming.

    I loved everything from check in to check out so much that my partner and I decided to extend our 3 day stay to a extra day. The room was personalized by their lovely staff Beauty for as they knew it was a couple coming which stole my heart as I walked in. Danie , Roeline and Franz were just amazing host. I would recommend this place 😊 . Place is also central malls , restataunts it's a real gem. And load shedding had no effect on our stay 💃
