"We are three sisters from Canada, Uk and Cape Town. We came here to reminisce our childhood days in Struisbaai. What a wonderful home base for us. We came for a night and stayed for two. Your attention to detail and warm welcome made it feel like home from home. Just wonderful. Highly recommend. 10/10 for sure! Thank you!!"

10/10 Excellent
"Clean and comfortable room. Hosts and staff were very attentive and knowledgeable about the area. Breakfast was delicious w a spread of fresh fruit, yogurt & granola and made to order hot breakfast. We felt very pampered during our short stay at the BnB. Only thing to note is that when we selected our room there was a picture on Expedia showing a small balcony with ocean views, however our room was not on the oceanview side of the property, but rather on ground level facing a small garden area. None the less, this was an excellent accommodation that was very reasonably priced for the "slow" season."

"Stayed in a self-equipped cottage and enjoyed the proximity to ostrich, elands, notebooks and zebra. Rented mountain bikes (not a great selection for a small woman but found one) and road to the ocean pools. Tough on the washboard roads! Gorgeous coast. Staff were terrific, had to deal with a baboon break-in (hide ALL food) and eager to please. Didn’t eat in the restaurant but had drinks by the fire there as it was chilly and damp. Friends did the marine guided walk and said it was excellent."
