Very nice
Stephen Dermaux, South Africa

Very well organized backpackers, magnificent view, friendly staff and so on. Clean and spacious rooms and a great place to relax. Really value for money!
Breathtaking!

We had an amazing time. Service was great, people were friendly. I just wasn't happy being a couple and sharing the quarters. Would have preferred my own lodge. Apart from that, the view, the atmosphere, the beach, everything else was great! Thanks guys. Will definitely be back if there are private lodges for couples!
Excellent

Enjoyed every day there. Romy and Barret and Kayden are very nice people. We have already sent new people to them at the end of this month. I would really rate there accommodation.

It was an all new experience because we are used to holiday flats. We enjoyed the interaction between the guests and met interesting people. We surely will do it again.
