The location and everything about Gonana was fantastic and will be back, but there was no hot water on Saturday night or Sunday morning.
I sent a message to the number on Saturday night and haven't heard anything from management until now :-(.

Awesome stay with sea view.
Expected Gonana Guesthouse to be fantastic, but it was much more. We were a group of 10. The reception from Thandi was very professional with humanity. She immediately sorted us into rooms and informed us where our breakfast was going to be helpful. The rooms are wow. The upper part with sitting area and large table with sea view is awesome. I recommend Gonana Guesthouse to anyone looking for only the best accommodation in Paternoster.

Very nice stay with, and our dog was welcome everywhere.
Only criticism is they should get better bath towels, give them a 1 out of 5 for that, then because our room was in the courtyard the blinds are not sufficient, you can see through, even more so in the evening when there is a light is on and you are in the shower. Unfortunately there is no alternative for lighting during load shedding other than solar panels on their roof.

Dear Kobus,
Thank you for taking the time to write this great review. It makes us really happy to hear that you were satisfied with your stay. As we support local, handmade crafts, our towels are hand-weaved from Barrydale Hand Weavers. These are in all our bathrooms at the guesthouse. If brought to the attention of the staff, they could assist in offering one of the bath towels that we make use of at the pool. We have noted your feedback regarding the blinds in the room and will look into it. There has been a technical problem with our solar system, which is now fixed. We are definitely not affected during load-shedding, so we welcome you back for another stay. Try out one of our rooms inside the main house for a different experience.
Looking forward to welcoming you back again very soon.
Best Regards from the Gonana Family.

Very nice, but not for families with small children. Not old people friendly either. Very difficult to climb stairs.
Unfortunately, Gonana is not child-friendly. Pool does not have a gate or net and the stairs to the living area are very narrow and high. There are also no arrangements to hold on to climb the stairs. Other than that, Thandi is fantastically friendly.
