Place is lovely, very safe to take short walk to beautiful beach, & if it's shopping malls & restaurants you fancy, there's a giant one nearby. First time I haven't seen/felt uber security issue in South Africa. Property owners Lynn & Fred are fun, delightful, generous & helpful.

Splendid
Such an absolutely fantastic stay. The hosts went all out to make our comfortable. The breakfast was amazing. As we had to check out early, they provided us with food for the road. I will definitely recommend this place and if I ever find myself in the area again, will use their services.

Super gæstfrie værter. Man føler sig meget velkommen. Lækker og hyggelig morgenmad, igen med værterne meget nærværende. Placeringen er rigtig god, tæt på supermarkedet, stranden og Lufthavnen. Vi overnattede her 1 mat og det var perfekt til vores behov.
