Fue una noche, de viaje a la ruta jardín, el lugar ofrece solo buceo con tiburones y avistaje de ballenas, fuera de eso, pueblo fantasma, no tiene playa. No hay que hacer a las 6 de la tarde. Difícil encontrar comida después de esa hora.

Perfect for Shark Diving
Great place. Clean, friendly and good facilities in the room. Local area has no restaurants or bars so I would recommend a car if you plan to go out, but location is perfect for anyone who has booked shark diving. Just a 5 minute drive to the port. Although no restaurant can be easily overcome with a self prepared meal in the kitchen eaten the balcony enjoying the views over the bay. Great stay. Thanks.

Grosszuegiges Zimmer (Wohnraum und getrennter Schlafraum) mit schoenem Bad. Vollständige Küche mit kalten Getränken im Kühlschrank (unkomplizierte Bezahlung am Abreisetag). Architektonisch ineressantes Haus (rund aussen und innen!)

attenzione alle stanze al primo piano!
Le recensioni su questa struttura erano ottime, ma purtroppo il mio soggiorno ha presentato delle criticità. Innanzitutto ho inviato loro almeno 4 mail per avvisarli di un late check in e non mi hanno mai risposto costringendomi a telefonare direttamente dal Sud Africa, poi fortunatamente alla telefonata ho avuto risposta e non ci sono stati problemi per il late check in. Il problema principale, però, è stata la stretta scala a chiocciola che ho dovuto affrontare per salire in stanza. L'hotel è strutturato con la maggior parte delle stanze a piano terra e credo 2 camere al primo piano, avevo letto che non c'era l'ascensore, ma non mi aspettavo una scala a chiocciola stretta ed angusta. Portare su una valigia di oltre 25 kg non è stato affatto facile! La stanza era gradevole, ma un po' vecchiotta, inoltre il bagno era più grande della stanza da letto stessa, dove mancava un armadio, per fortuna stavamo lì solo 2 giorni. Non la definirei una brutta struttura, ma sinceramente non ci tornerei, per me i contro sono stati superiori ai pro.

Terrible stay
We arrived after a long drive and were informed our reservation was for the next night. I confirmed that our reservation was indeed for Dec. 14.. We were taken to our cottage which was hot, stuffy and absolutely alive with mosquitoes. We couldn't open the windows as there were no screens and had to fumigate the place with bug spray. Didn't sleep at all. There was no air conditioning and the fans just blew the hot air around. To top it off, this is listed as a Bed and a breakfast on hotels.com and their own website and road signs. They didn't serve breakfast! Only had instant coffee in the room, that was it!

The host, Dave, was very helpful and friendly. There were more common facilities than we expected (hot tub, ping pong, pool table, etc) and this was a very nice value.

Relaxation!
Pleasant stay. Friendly and accomodating staff. Phone number listed on hotels.com was incorrect, but I was able to find the correct one. Although there was no answer to confirm late arrival. Fortunately the late arrival worked fine. There was a note on the door with cell numbers and ringing the bell summoned Dave for checkin. Jacuzzi is great. Small pool good for a quick dip. And you can brag about swimming 100 laps in record time without getting tired!

Leider etwas schmuddelig
Wir sind mit großen Erwartungen in dieses Hotel gefahren. Wir hatten auch gehofft in einem runden Zimmer zu schlafen. Bekamen dann aber ein sehr geräumiges extra Häuschen mit 2 Schlafzimmern und großem Wohnzimmer mit Küche. Ideal für eine Familie. Leider regnete es bei unser Ankunft und wir konnten die Aussenmöglichkeiten nicht nutzen. (Grill, Pool ect) Der Chef des Hotels war sehr nett, aber leider war alles sehr schmutzig. Schade, sonst hätten wir besser bewertet. Wenn mehr auf die Sauberkeit geachtet wird, dann ist es sicher sehr viel schöner dort.
