Excellent stay. Room was clean and comfortable, hosts were friendly and happy to help with any queries. Good breakfast, quiet area. No load shedding impact as they have a generator/ solar power.

Amazing Guesthouse
This place is absolutely fabulous, if they have availability you need to stay here. It's a large family home converted into a guesthouse, the owners are so nice and the breakfast is delicious. Great location, hot water, fast wifi. I loved it here.

My six day stay at this property was incredible. I was very happy with every last detail in regard to my experience. The owner Peter and the manager Wendy became like friends and they went overboard to make me feel welcome and to help me out as much as they could. The breakfasts beyond words and Moffat the cook was so much fun to chat with. The rooms are very clean and comfortable and the location is great if you enjoy walking. I was able to the walk along the ocean, to the shopping area, the stadium and the downtown area. I am planning to return with my wife and spend a month at this property next winter.
