We loved this place! We spend hours sitting in the garden, drinking a glass of wine while enjoying the breaching whales in the ocean. You can see the ocean from the bed as well. Felt very safe at this place. We loved to stay at this place during our honeymoon.

Everything! JP gave a warm welcome on arrival and gave is more than enough info on arrival. Rooms were clean and beautiful. Location is great for scenic views and walking distance from beach (non swimming) and lagoon. Breakfast was great and they even sorted a packed one for us as we had to leave early on last day.

I loved the proximity of the location to everything. It was a walk away from the beachfront. My hosts were also so helpful with anything I needed. It was also very clean and cozy. The perfect home away from home.

We had a really comfortable stay. The whole coast was experiencing a cold snap, but the apartment was really well insulated, and we were warm and cosy. It's right by the beach, close to shops and restaurants. I'd definitely recommend the apartment.

Excellent location and very tasteful Interior design. When arriving though, one night think that this is not the place. There is barbed wire and the villa doesn't look like much from the outside. Don't be fooled though. The assistant lighthouse manager welcomes you and is very helpful and kind. You can also visit the lighthouse somewhere between 5 am and 5 pm. The facilities and the kitchen are excellent. You also get an indoor braai (fireplace for cooking). The views from the villa are stunning. And you have the beach almost to yourselves. We saw whales blowing and breaching and took many beautiful pictures of the place at sunset and sunrise. We got an excellent deal and enjoyed our stay very much. One night may be too short...
