Tall Ships Bar, lovely and secluded from the mayhem outside. The breakfast at Ocean Breeze restaurant... Get there early.. Staff efficient, lovely meal from room service
Overcrowded with families, but it was that time of the year

Breakfast was exceptional, loved that we were spoiled for choice from cereals and cooked breakfast to fruits and muesli. It was just awesome.
Having to get water for my tea/coffee from the bathroom is not healthy. I love my tea in my room so I ended u buying bottled water. It would be nice to have a little sink kitchenette in the room

OkayJan 20206.0
The room was comfortable and the breakfast had a large variety. Staff very friendly.
Parking was located in an open field behind the hotel, since the main parking was full. We had to walk from the parking to the hotel, in a place that we don't know whether it was safe and with 2 small children. It is not far to walk, but when you pay more than R2500.00 per night then the expectation is a bit higher than what we experienced.
