Beautiful little boutique guest house in a nice location.
Pros:

Beautiful little gem of a place right around the corner from Dorp Street. Great service from the staff at check-in. Good breakfast was included.

Cons:

A little bit cramped around the pool, if there are people at the pool it could be a bit noisy for guests staying there.
