Our stay was amazing and the staff was very friendly. If I could ask to change one thing it would be for air conditioning on the hot days, but there were only just a couple of days that were extremely hot.

Unpleasant experience

No celing fan and not even a rotating fan. Just a simple stationary one low down on floor level. Small fridge on floor so you have to get down on knees to retrieve items. No one was there to open for us. We got hold of the gentlemen with the help of their guests...apparently they left to celebrate valentines day. No pool, just a foot bath called pool. 1,5m-2,5m x 2,5m. Cant swim in it! Small tv in room so difficult to see. No welcome info in room with Wi-Fi code, info on restaurants ect.. Impossible to shower without getting whole bathroom wet. You have to climb into bath and use a hand shower that can be attached to wall.. but no shower curtain. 2 connecting doors to rooms next door on either side inside our room with result that we could hear neighbours clearly. For some reason breakfast is only served from 8am. Guest House is far from beach. 2nd worst stay on a 35day road trip of South Africa. They advertise with good reviews, but I just get it.
