Liked that is was neat and the mattress comfortable. Liked that there was Netflix too
That you can see somebody on the toilet! They should put in a sliding door. There are space to do so. We understand why she could come to the door when we left., could maybe arrange though upfront with us where to leave the key. They will not have much cupboard space for people staying a few days... It needs a bigger or rather extra bin. and saw no bin.outside. Otherwise very nice place! (No name of B&B on the outside of the premises which was strange)

Beautifully appointed self-contained and spacious suite overlooking a lovely garden and pool. Very comfortable and well equipped with king size bed, Smart TV, aircon and overhead fans, a fridge and a microwave, a lounge area for relaxation, a large walk in wardrobe and a spacious modern wetroom with shower and bath. Ideally situated with easy off road parking in a quite area close to the centre of Richards Bay. (Perfect as I had to spend a couple of days in the suite preparing for surgery in the local hospital only six minutes away). The owner Adele made me very welcome and couldn’t have been more helpful. Highly recommended property and I will definitely stay here again.
I only have good things to say about my stay here

The place is in a safe neighbourhood, very quiet as well. The rooms are well decorated, absolutely stunning and extremely clean.
They have dogs & whenever we opened the gate the dogs would run out, I like dogs so I assumed the responsibility of ensuring they get in safe or that someone comes and gets them. I didn't like having that responsibility while on vacation.

Spacious long suite although slightly crowded with furniture and ornaments. Very large screen TV with Dstv, Netflix and Amazon Prime. Comfortable bed as well as large comfy couch and a powerful air conditioner. Fresh milk provided in fridge. Pool available which was good for cooling off. Wireless worked well. Very close to centre of Richards Bay but still felt suburban. Friendly reception and helpful with early check in.
Dog noise which was fortunately resolved. Cutlery and crockery wasn't replaced after using. A little too cluttered for my taste but some people may like the cottage type feel.

Did not book the breakfast. The location was excellent.
Garden landscaping picturesque. The rooms are very spacious, tastefully designed with cozy beds that are very comfortable. The furnishings are classy and elegantly unique. The host was generous and exceptionally hospitable.

I like everything about the property. Host was friendly and accommodating. We used the executive suite and pictures don’t really give account of how spacious the room is. The place was clean, spacious and had everything you could need for a stay. It’s not fully self-catering but does have a few plates, cutlery and a microwave; would recommend it to anyone.

Most amazing bed I have ever slept in. Very spacious. Top quality finishes. Extremely accommodating hostess. Such a nice central location.
The only aspect was that we understood the unit to have a full kitchenette which it did not, but the hostess was gracious enough to let us use her private kitchen. She went out of her way to accommodate and assist us.

The room was very neat and facilities exceeded expectations. Internet was really fast and I could work comfortably. Parking was relatively secure and within the grounds.
Sounds from the adjoining room could be heard and made it a little difficult to sleep if you have very vocal neighbours.

Rooibos Retreat is everything advertised on Booking.Com and more. Friendly staff, beautiful guesthouse. Clean linen, good quality beds and furniture. Will definitely revisit.
I don't have any complaints or suggestions, the guesthouse was everything and more than expected.
