The apartment was very clean and close to the beach.

But there are cheaper hotels within a 1km radius that offer more value for money. However, the cupboards and drawers had handles that were hanging on one screw. The headboard in the bedroom looks like a cat was scratching at it. The beach view is a small corner window in the dining room. Every room has a level change, so you're constantly tripping over the small steps if you're not used to the layout. There is a sharp tile corner sticking out as you step up out of the dining room into the living room, which my wife cut her toe on. There are no carports for guest cars, so cars are parked in the sun all day. The braai area is a small passage between the building and the boundary wall; it does have a small roof for shelter though. But there are no chairs or benches to sit at, so socialising by the fire with friends or family is not possible. So having a braai is mostly a one man show. We have been to a few other hotels within 500m on the same road as this establishment, and all of them have had a better sea view and under-roof parking for less money.

Didn't sleep very well.

The place is outdated and run down, the fridge wasn't even on when we arrived. The curtains are torn in the bedroom. Curtains not even neatly hung in TV room. The shower door is rusted and coming off. People threw donuts with cars in the parking area at 12 o'clock in the night and shouted and drank. Not safe at all and the front door is swollen and can't close properly. The chairs that are there in the dining room/kitchen are broken. We will definitely not go back or recommend. Definitely does not look like the pictures.

Wonderlik. So goed soos op die strand. Toegeboude balkon kyk nie direk op die see uit nie, maar die noordelike uitsig gee die besonderse voordeel vir die noorde-windjie om die eenheid lekker af te koel op 'n warm somersdag-/aand.

Sentraal. Loopafstand vanaf hoofstrand en kort ryafstand na mall.

Wonderful. As good as on the beach. Built-in balcony does not look directly onto the sea, but the northern view gives the special advantage for the north breeze to cool the unit nicely on a hot summer day/evening.

Central. Walking distance from main beach and short drive to mall.
