"I do not make a habit of writing reviews. For me to do so means that something has either fallen well short of an expected standard or has far exceeded them. This review falls into the latter. I Spent two nights at this property in September 2025 (suite 6). If you want to know what a 5-star boutique offering should look like then this is the exemplar. The interior design and overall finish on the property is superb. Some absolutely exquisite art works and pieces of furniture are complemented by some relevant and inspirational sporting memorabilia. Just stand at the back of the guest lounge area, look out over a stunning seascape and drink in the sheer elegance and finesse of this place. There are so many additional features including the excellent quality of complementary snacks, drinks and toiletries and the provision of beach chairs and towels. However, it’s more than simply just the provision of beach towels, more it’s the way in which they are presented. Not just laid out on a chair or table but carefully rolled and placed into a wicker carrier that is easily transportable onto the beach. It’s just those simple, classy examples of attention to detail that lifts Beach Villa to another level. Absolutely superb. Thank you. "

"Great breakfast, great view, comfortable bed and really friendly people!"

"From the moment we drove into the property of this beautiful B&B, we felt welcomed like family. Rina goes out of her way to make sure that the tiniest detail of her guests requests are attended to. We visited with our 93 year old mother, and the little, unspoken thoughtful gestures to make everything uncomplicated for her, spoke volumes of the caring kind of person that Rina is. The rooms are spotlessly clean, the welcome package included rusks and chocolates, complementary assortment of coffee and teas and bottled water. The breakfasts are an assorted treat of generous homemade wholesome goodness-each day with a different choice of hot and cold items. I cannot say enough about how well we were fed and individually attended to. The pool was lovely, and we enjoyed the polite dogs, friendly horses and occasional rabbits on the property. She has a number of little quotes around the building which is testament to her approach towards her guests: primarily that we arrive as friends, and leave like family. This is true Afrikaans South African hospitality at its finest. Thank you Rina- you’re amazing! "
