Pros:

What a wonderful place with excellent staff that goes the extra mile to let you feel welcome.
After a power failure we received a free upgrade to The Robberg House which was really special.

Thank you we will definitely come back. Special thanks to Cornelius & Zulu and the breakfast team.

Best wishes

Cons:

They did not give us the room we paid for --we paid extra R500 for a balcony-then when we told them proceeded to bother with messages while out for supper --also waking us up for a fruit bowl and wine to say sorry where all I wanted was a refund or a voucher for their mistake
WE were checked in late so only realised when we came back from our hike

Pros:

Great location on the quieter side of town right next to the beach. Beautiful view, especially during breakfast watching the sunrise! The breakfast was delicious and had everything you could think of. Our room was big and clean and had everything we needed. Even a welcome letter with our name on it and explaining all the details which was very sweet. All the staff was so nice and helpful! We would love to stay longer!
