Aquamarine Guest House

It could be the best in the area for the price. But for me, I wish I had stayed in another area. Car parking is difficult. We received a cool welcome, no help with luggage, little information other than if we wanted the shuttle to local restaurants it needed to be booked early. We were not show around the hotel. I felt this place was very much a basic Bed & Breakfast. The room was simple and lacking in welcome. There is no air con ( not that it was needed as it was s cold) there is a ceiling fan. The doors to balcony don’t fully meet, but are secure - daylight can be seen through them and howling wind canes in. The curtains don’t meet or overlap and the doors face the sunrise. It is very light in the morning. Our bed had a dirty / stained duvet cover placed dirty side down on the bed.saying that, the bed had great sheets and blankets. The mattress on the bed was adequate - you do feel every time your partner moves. Pillows to tall for me. The safe won’t fit much more than a wallet. The bathroom is nice - bath, shower and dual sinks. Finding our way to breakfast was a challenge with many locked entrances. After other guest house stays in South Africa we felt that the food at breakfast was poor quality. Overall very disappointing and I won’t return

This is a very modern and well equipped guest house with great views over the coast. Breakfast was very good and it was served in the lounge or in the garden. The main problem was the rooms were in different buildings, at different levels, separated by locked sliding doors, each needing opening to go to the breakfast room. Also, the parking areas required very difficult manoevering to enter and leave. I would not like to try to enter with a large vehicle. Finally there was no manager present and the staff were not able to deal with general issues..

Amazingly surprised by the size and facilities of the rooms. Clean and comfortable with a balcony view on the bay. Large common living room. Parking challenging though for a new driver.
