Pleasant stay.
The guest house is very comfortable, although they mention that breakfast starts at 7 in the morning, the staff doesn't start working until 7. So the breakfast is really only served from 7h30. Unfortunately, it is too late if you have appointments. The breakfast was indeed tasty. The telephone number given for after-hours work is unfortunately not mentioned and the instructions for handing in keys are not mentioned.

Quick pit stop in Umhlanga.
Upon arrival we were greeted in a friendly and professional manner. Spacious room bathroom and the aircon was luxurious and nice. Swimming pool is clean and tidy as is the rest of the guest house. The breakfast was included and really nice with a menu of a few options from french toast with cheese and bacon to omelettes etc.

Mediocre and disappointing for a 5 star.
Our room was changed on our arrival, so it was a bit unexpected. The blinds in the room did not work properly. There were previous guests' things in the small fridge. One of the breakfast staff members serves the guests while wearing slippers. And didn't even have a uniform on. It should not be like this at all for a 5-star facility. Guesthouse is very nice, but there is no 'attention to detail', which is disappointing for a 5-star. In the breakfast area there is a certificate of their rating and it has 31 Dec. 2020 already expired. So it made one wonder if they were still rated 5 star or not?

Stay was very neat and quickly felt at home. Alfred the host was fantastic and very helpful. Every morning and evening I was greeted and welcomed back. Breakfast was delicious, fresh and rooms were cleaned twice a day. Had more than enough space, neat and modern facilities. Beach is walking distance from the guest house and within 1 km is La Lucia Mall for shopping etc. I will definitely be back.

We usually stay in hotels or shared title units. The stay was pleasant - furniture in our room (honeymoon suite) was tired and should be replaced. The house and facilities are very neat and clean. Very nice breakfast and staff are very friendly - especially Portia, the manager. Sorry the house does not have a sea view.
