Vintage revamped Glamping seaside stay(10)

DevinRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We loved our stay in unit 10. The accommodation was perfect, great sized beds, open kitchen with all that we needed. Lovely shower and bath with water that was always hot. A 3 min walk to the beach - that felt private and safe. Jannie was a fantastic host, caring, and super responsive to us- made the stay even more enjoyable. Great activities and play areas for kids as well. Never a dull moment. Will be back very soon. One of the best places we have stayed at.

Agapantha Room on the Mcantsi River

JudyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Linda welcomed us in the dark with a delicious homemade lasagne and Greek salad prepared for our dinner. We enjoyed an early morning walk along a grassy river path to the beach. Linda's place had everything we needed after a long drive. Tidy, comfortable, quiet, tea & coffee with rusks, bottled water ... even a washing machine! Thanks Linda and Rhett, we'd love to come and visit longer next time.

Buccaneers Beach Lodge - Budget Sea view En-suite

BelindaRating, 5 stars66 months ago
Amazing view from the room across the lagoon. Large clean and comfy room easy access to kitchen if needed for your morning tea. Great food and good value. If you have time do the soup kitchen hike, helping prepare the food for the young children and playing games with them while thefood cooked it was very humbling. Highly recommended

Arbor Ease-5 Bedroom Family Home & Spacious Garden

HildeRating, 5 stars40 months ago
We had a wonderful stay in the house, in spite of bad weather and closed beaches. Suburban area quiet with very little traffic.The garden was even bigger than we thought, as was theTV -screen and swimming pool. Lovely kitchen with lots of quality pots and pans. Two upstairs bedrooms extremely hot, aircons provided as a necessity. The house is close to the most delicious Spargs I have ever encountered. The curry place around the corner is also commendable. Bonza Bay beach close to the house is beautiful, but quite neglected and according to some (local)warnings, not so safe either. Nahoon beach on other side of river about a 15 min drive away. Warrick is an excellent host with great communication. One small thing - for a three week stay one would expect clean bedding every week- as it was we had to pay the (lovely)cleaning lady and she even started preparing the house for their return while we were hiring her. But this is a minor- thanks for sharing your beautiful home with us.

9 Coogee Bay

AllisonRating, 5 stars1 week ago
We spent a lovely long weekend at Karen's listing. The location is unbeatable, with the sound of the surf a constant backdrop. We enjoyed our morning coffee on the balcony followed by walks on the beach. The apartment is comfortable, and we found it very clean. The building is quiet and neighbors friendly. While we didn't get to meet Karen in person, all of her communication with us was timely and helpful. We highly recommend this location to couples or small families looking for a place on the coast.
A view from a window captures the vibrant blue ocean waves, crashing against the shore. A nearby building and a green roofed structure are visible, along with a wooden fence separating the area from the beach. Palm fronds are partially included in the frame.
