Great place for family and friends

Perfect space for our family of 4 plus a friend each for the teenagers - downstairs has a separate TV room with 2 bedrooms, bathroom and separate toilet. Upstairs has a guest toilet and a full ensuite (with walk-in shower, lovely). A short walk through the dunes to the beach. Kitchen has everything you can ever need (including a butler's pantry!). We enjoyed our stay even though we didn't get to see much sun - the house is easy to live in.

Family gathering

A great place to stay for a family gathering/reunion. We found it very clean and comfortable, and the property manager was excellent and very responsive to the minor issues we had. The cooking arrangements were challenging, but a combination of a demonstration and detailed instructions got us there. It proved very easy to extend our stay at the last minute too. Mid-winter meant we were not able to take full advantage of all the activities provided for but in better weather that would have been different. The views from the lounge were lovely and we saw some spectacular sunset skies.

Beach Get Away

Loved the sea views from the living area. Quick and easy access to view the sun sets in the afternoons or a walk down for a surf. The table tennis kept the kids occupied, which was a great feature. All round a lovely property, would definitely recommend. Thanks for letting us stay.

Beautiful immaculate house with ocean views.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful house. We had 4 children too and it was perfect as walking distance to the beach (across the road) and biking distance to the cafes. The games room was of great use. The kitchen and butlers pantry was amazing! Large selection of glasses,platters,cocktail and wine glasses. A real entertaining set up. Thanks so much
