Guest Reviews

• Martha (10/5): - Perfect place for our budget. We were in the lowest price range of this accommodation and definitely we highly recommend the resort for any budget,look other cabins there are different choices,we choose the cheapest one and still were happy. Restaurant and bar had tasty meals too. Safe, clean and super friendly staff has everything that you need. Thanks to everyone that made our stay so easy.

• Shayne (8/5): -
• Yolande (10/5): Will definitely come again - Breakfast was delicious Properly marked parking.
• Mandy (8/5): All we needed and it was Great - The Pillows, Too Hard or too Flat none just right
• Krystal (6/5): - I loved the location & safety of being in the resort. The room was very small & the extra bed advertised shouldnt be advertised as an extra bed/room, it is inhabitable without a window up there & the stairs are very dangerous for anyone climbing up there, especially young kids or elderly people. For the price, I definitely expected way better.
• Michael (8/5): - Wie beschrieben etwas hellhörig, aber ansonsten eine perfekte Unterkunft.
• Allan_Watt (8/5): Value for money in a great location - Comfortable with everything you need in a secure environment. Pleasantly surprised and good value for money. TV picture quality was poor.
• Oliver (10/5): -
• Jocelyne (8/5): -
• Bekker (5/5): -
• Marna (8/5): Ideal for a quick stayover - Everything was as advertised All was good
• Frederick (5/5): -
• Matthias (6/5): - Gute Infrastruktur durch Lage in einer Ferienanlage. Die Beschreibung und Bjlder entsprachen nur teilweise der Unterkunft. Einen Hinweis zur Lage in einem Ferienpark gab es in der Beschreibung nicht. Die Unterkunft war sehr einfach.
• Frank (8/5): -
• Hart (9/5): Very happy - Really friendly service and the accommodation was more than enough for 1 night's stay.
• Hayley (9/5): Superb - Rooms have been updated beautifully since last stay. We checked in late and left early, so just needed a bed and didn't get to enjoy all the facilities Whilst we got hot water in the shower in the evening, it didn't get warm in the morning.
• Michael (5/5): Passable -
• Fani (3/5): Poor - I did not like the fact that there was no TV and it was quite small and the bed was super uncomfortable.
• Kate (8/5): Very good -
• Lindsey (9/5): Perfect place for a one night sleepover -
• Vikki (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mariette (8/5): Very good -
• Pippa (7/5): Good -
• Gerhard (8/5): Very good - Warm reception! The location is amazing!
• Dyasi (10/5): Great hospitality and facilities - Access to private beach Nothing. All was good.
• Xander (10/5): Exceptional - The reception staff was not helpfull at all On checking out on the Friday morning the lady was very helpful
• Margot (8/5): Awesome, just take ear plugs and bug spray for mozzies - It was neat and offered everything we needed for the stay. The walls are so thin and we only were able to fall asleep when the people next door turned there TV off at 1am.
• Madeleine (9/5): Superb - We stayed in a small cottage - well appointed with easy access to the beach.
• Taljaard (8/5): Clean, neat and value for money accommodation -
• Robyn (6/5): Pleasant -
• Chris (7/5): Good -
• Nicole (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kim (7/5): Perfect budget Accomodation - Great location There was a terrible noise during the night - not sure what it was but I couldn’t sleep. It stopped in the morning. Only 1 of the 2 nights.
• Kirsten (10/5): Exceptional - Such a lovely vibe. Clean, comfortable and well-equipped. The location is amazing. Loved the restaurant with the pool right there for the kids to swim in.
• Alexandra (7/5): Nice Resort with great Amenities and awesome Location! - the kids enjoyed the upstairs loft where they slept. Spacious Bathroom and large walk-in shower. The kitchen has everything you need. the Decor was bright and fresh - adding to the sea resort vibe. Enjoyed the convenience of walking to the restaurant for dinner and walking to the beach from our property. Kids felt super safe walking around by themselves. the property has got no privacy. The window from your kitchen & bathroom open out onto the road where guests enter the resort. Guests and Staff constantly walk past your unit to get to the restaurant/ reception. Window in bedroom and lounge face other cottages at the back - so we had to draw the curtains close most the time to avoid our neighbours from staring in. The Communal Braai Lapa is right at the entrance of this unit - where your seating space is on the porch. If you book all the cottages with friends and braai together - then great 👍🏻 But otherwise you have to listen to guests braaing, chatting & playing music right outside your door. Both family units are attached - not soundproof, we could hear the family chatting in their unit next to us. Unfortunately our TV didn’t work properly- the picture was snowy… Wi-Fi kept buffing and dropping us. There were many guests that weekend - so I think too many of us tried to connect..
• Lee (9/5): Superb -
• Peter (6/5): - Ok - but needs a facelift!
• Clarissa (6/5): Hot place - Hard place to find. No signs on the street. We were lucky we found it. We got in the reception by the wrong door and an old lady screamed at us. The place is pretty hot. No fan or AC. But we were travelling on a budget. Worth the price we paid.
• thomas (8/5): Cape st francis resort - Boendet är trångt och lite slitet,men rent.Fantastskt trevlig personal på resturangen och receptionen.Området är fint med superhärliga stränder.
