    Good

    The room was not the room that was indicated on the booking. Very small with bad ventilation. Access to patio a safety hazard due to step. Small door and not sliding.

    I booked this as a short break for my parents on a wedding anniversary. The staff I liaised with online were clear in th

    10AltaPosted on: 2-19-2024

    The clean and neat environment. The friendly staff. Big trees for shades for the cars. The clean swimming pool. The view was absolutely beautiful.

    The restaurant closes at 16:00.

    My Kids stayed for one night as my son was cycling in a Road Race in Veldrif. The kids especially mentioned the friendly receptionist. 10/10 for her kindness and service. My son who is very fussy said he would definitely be back to stay.

    10DawnPosted on: 1-11-2024

    I liked the comfort, spacious rooms. The walks, swimming pool, and terrace were absolutely amazing .

    7JennaPosted on: 1-9-2024

    The location was absolutely fantastic. Right on the water in the marina. The restaurant was unfortunately closed during our stay over new years but the pool area was fantastic.

    8ClairePosted on: 1-9-2024

    Love, love the location and the staff. The room was amazing but the bed was very hard. Also it was suprising that the restaurant was not open for dinner and that pool bar was closed, considering we were there in peak season. The food at the restaurant could also be better.

    Love the balcony, views, the friendly staff

    7DenisePosted on: 12-29-2023

    The view

    1)Didn't get the room that I booked 2) Closed to early 3) The price could have included breakfast

    5TylerPosted on: 12-29-2023

    It was the worst experience. The gave us three years expired tabasco sauce. Waited a hour for food to arrive. Was served cold raw breakfast sausage. Stale toast, list goes on.

    The fact that we were asked to make another full payment as they have not received our payment on their side, when I made full payment three weeks prior and sent through POP. On the second day of our stay we were told about this. After refusing to pay the receptionist made some calls and will sort out their admin issue.

    10AnnePosted on: 12-28-2023

    The hotel is a small ‘boutique style’ overlooking the marina.The view from the upstairs room was perfect for colourful sunrise and especially sunsets.The staff are so friendly and informative.Breakfast is not included but the restaurant has a lovely outside terrace. Food is excellent.We had Xmas Day lunch. Very nice. And plenty of it.The youngsters who work in the restaurant are very pleasant and work hard!

    Nothing really to dislike.

    7AnthonyPosted on: 12-28-2023

    We enjoyed the fact that the room overlooked the lagoon. It was peaceful.

    We could hear the voices of those staying in the neighboring rooms. It felt like we had no privacy.
