We enjoyed our stay at the resort. It’s the second time we stayed at the resort. The units are beautifully clean and the staff are very friendly.

– Liz Williams

 No restaurant onsite, fully self-catering units, well-maintained and serviced daily. Lovely pool area and mini golf course.

– Chris Nixon

Very nice and comfortable, staff friendly security at gate and on premises, cosy rooms and feels like home, will definitely come back for a vacation.

– Coenie van Wyk

Lovely place for a weekend getaway in the South Coast. Not directly on the beach and no view of the beach, but the beach itself is a short 10-minute walk across the road. We did stay there in August so it was a little chilly and the unit itself was quite cold, very little sunshine, but blankets were provided. Overall, a good place, nice mini golf course for fun, and friendly service.

– Suntosh Pillay

It’s a beautiful clean and very central to all shopping complex making it the perfect place to be at. Very friendly and helpful staff. Will definitely be coming back.

– Nridgit Subramoney

If we could score 100/10, we would. You need to visit this resort to experience the vibe yourself. Ayanda our housekeeper was excellent. Activities for kids were great. The gardens are well-maintained and the lemons on the trees were delicious. The manager was top class and assisted us with all our extra needs. These people understand hospitality.
