Liked: We had a very big room with a balcony and view. It was perfect. The manager was extremely nice and very helpful. Nice and quiet location, close to a huge beautiful beach where you are certain to find your own spot.

Disliked: You need a car to get to the hotel but it is not a long drive to the main city.

Customer review

16 March 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Definitely great value for money, for R400 we got a double room with a sea view and breakfast included. There is an upstairs lounge with a fridge and kettle which is useful. It wasn't very busy when we were there and had a much older crowd than you'd expect at somewhere that is being marketed as a hostel. The only negative is that it's quite far from the town centre (about a 15 min drive) but a great location for the beach.

Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
