“I didn’t want to ever leave.”
Everything at this property was 110%. The attention to detail, the facilities, just everything was marvellous. I can’t recommend this property highly enough , it was a home away from home and more.

“A wonderful home from home”
It was just great! Joan is a great host and welcomed us at the house. The house is a dream - two lovely bedrooms with comfy beds, two bathrooms, a fantastic livingroom with kitchen, a balcony with views. Very well equipped, dishwasher, washing machine and more than enough dishes. Tea, coffee, spices and a lot of other things are in the cupboards. We would love to come back!

Everything. The host is very responsive and the abode can be categorised as modern chic. The warm welcoming culture of Cape St Francis is the cherry on top. This home truly sticks to its namesake: A Real Gem.

“Rainbows, sea, light house, serene and spiritual”
This was a last-minute booking and by far the best accommodation on our long roadtrip. It was so serene and spiritual with crystals and beautiful decor. The space was absolutely clean! Fireplace and electric blankets made our stay extra comfy and warm, during the cold, rainy nights. We felt very rested and at peace here. The views are stunning . There were rainbows the entire day! Short cut to the beach is helpful . Our pets also enjoy the garden and beach. Highly recommend and will definitely be back if ever in St Francis Bay again. Thank you, Joan, for sharing your space and the quick response and communication . Much appreciate
