Oh my word.... amazing place. Totally exceeded my expectations. Good location. Just a walk to the beach. Staff exceptionally amazing. The three Ps, Pretty, Portia, Patrick were exceptionally amazing. Room was spacious enough and squeaky clean. Location amazing. Threse's a sea food restaurant just next to the place. A shopping centre is also a walking distance from the hotel. Bed was so comfortable. I stayed for a night and will definitely come back at a point in time.

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.

Beautifully appointed Guest House with outstanding hosts! First impression of the house and garden were disappointing but once inside it was lovely. Needs a coat of paint outside and a garden spruce up!

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.
