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.

The best hospitality ever. Was a home away from home. 5 star accomodation indeed. Bob and Sally were clearly focussed on making our stay nothing but superb.The location was perfect and within walking distance from anything that was imagined. Breakfasts were top notch and the boardwalk was a welcomed daily exercise that one doesnt normally entertain. We will most certainly be back. The best ever!

I really liked how clean and well-maintained everything was — from the rooms to the shared areas. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, perfect for a getaway. The staff were warm and welcoming, and it felt more personal than a hotel. I also appreciated the little touches like fresh towels, fast Wi-Fi, and a cozy breakfast spot. Overall, it was comfortable, quiet, and felt like home.
