We loved the personal touch that went through every detail of this place. A big room, lovely garden, breakfast was really delicious, staff and owner adorable and it was all accompanied by the sound of the waves from the Indian Ocean. We could not ask for more.

I was with my friend, and we were celebraing her birthday. First of all the location is perfect for any kind of celebration as its on the beach ⛱️. The service is out of this world. The staff made it a point that my friend had the best birthday, and went all out to send complimentary bubbly and birthday card to our room. They made it very special....The food is excellent 👌. They have complimentary shuttle to drive safely within 5 km of the hotel, anytime of the day...5' star shuttle for that matter...Oyster Box is indeed the pinnacle of luxury holidaying, I would recommend it to anyone who wants luxury living. I will definitely be back.

We were lucky enough to get a room with a balcony just next to the hotel dining room and it was superb! The room was clean and comfortable. Their dining room is on 3rd floor overlooking the beach! The hotel sits right in front of the beach and you have less than 5 minutes walk to famous restaurants like Spur, Wimpy, McDonald's, Steers, Debonairs Pizza, Ocean Basket, to name a few, which are also on the beachfront.

My room was amazing. It was facing the ocean/beach. The breeze was entering my room every morning during the my time there. I enjoyed my time drinking coffee and watching the surfers in the morning. The breakfast was really pleasant. Breakfast was eggs, omlets and fruit along with other options. The location was on the beach and close to all the action. The bar was cool and active with a DJ on the weekends for happy hour.
