Lovely overnight on our way to Port Elizabeth. The staff was very communicative and welcomed us heartily. The apartment was clean and spacious, with everything we needed to help ourselves to a meal if we chose to. The local restaurants were walkable and the walking path in front was a great bonus. We had the ocean view which I recommend.

The breakfast was so delicious, and I particularly appreciated the accommodation of our dietary requirements. Loved the fast and efficient service. Location of the place was perfect and easy to find. I was touched by our hosts Tessa and Gail who left their Christmas party early to welcome us.
