The room overlooking the sea was just breathtaking. The room is huge, clean and well organised. The bathroom is the star of the whole room, i honestly feel like the pictures on the site doesnt capture how beautiful it is. Ed our host was friendly and lovely.

The host Ed is an absolute charm. He made sure that we are well aware of facilities and made us feel safe and welcomed. I would definitely recommend this house for a family vacation.

Great view, spacious room, huge bathroom, backup power. Really nice place!

House not exactly in as good condition as on pictures, but still very nice. I didn’t care for the hosts political opinions / world view. I didn’t ask to hear them.

Everything about the place is exceptional, the fact that they are not affected by loadshedding is a bonus since they have backup power. Ed is a great host and the stuff is friendly. It was our second time staying there and definitely recommend it.

All good

This place has amazing views and it's very spacious. I enjoyed the pool and the bed was also very comfortable.

The dusty road leading up to the house and the furniture is a bit outdated.

Beautiful and comfortable accomodation. Wonderful outlook over the beach. Friendly and attentive host.

Nothing to complain really - probably a little bit more pool cleaning could be done.
