Great location, comfortable rooms and friendly staff
Pros:

Room was lovely with a great view of the sea and comfy chairs on balcony. The fresh fruit at breakfast was great. Aphiwe did a wonderful massage.

Cons:

Hot Breakfast was good but no flexibility (I asked if possible to have pancakes and told no) and we found the breakfast area a bit soulless.

Location, hospitality, relaxing
Pros:

Location, cleanliness, breakfast were all great. The staff friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Only 16 rooms gave it a relaxed and homey feel. Recommend it highly for an enjoyable stay in a beautiful seaside town. Sandeesa was an absolute pleasure and looked after anything we needed.

Great friendly hotel in good location
Pros:

Lovely warm welcome and managed to book in earlier than expected. Thank you.
We had room 4, which was spacious and comfortable, but was at the rear of the hotel, so we missed out on the views.
Breakfast was good and relaxed, but you need to leave plenty of time to enjoy the hot food options.
Good location with easy access to the coastal path, which was fabulous.
The staff were very helpful, ensuring you had a great stay
