""BEST GUESTHOUSE STAY EVER!""

10.0

The location in Umhlanga is absolutely perfect, walking distance to all the restaurants and pubs. From the start, everything was handled very personally and professionally. Nosipho's (the chef) omelette is the best I have ever eaten, superb array of options for breakfast. The accommodation, the room was very well appointed, attention to detail is superb. "BEST GUESTHOUSE STAY EVER!"

Gunstige ligging tov restaurants met een hele lieve dame die ons ontving

Jammer dat we de eigenaren niet ontmoet hebben en er niemand in de bar was. Dat zag er op de foto’s gezellig uit, maar was het bij ons niet
