    The rooms they have were large and cool with balconies and refrigerators. The location was excellent, just a short stroll away from Scuba Do. Thank you, I really enjoyed the stay and will come back.

    great location
    helpful staff
    leaning closet
    slow wifi

    I came, I saw, I reviewed

    A good stay with a great location! Just minutes from the beach and ultra-comfortable private rooms. The staff were friendly, and the Skybar terrace offered jaw-dropping views at sunset. A few hiccups, like a leaning closet, but the overall experience was fantastic! Would come back for sure!

    Chill vibes in Kendwa 🌊🌴

    Just a lekker spot. Room was spacious and clean with a comfy king bed. Staff were super chill and always quick to help, especially loved the brekkie at the Skybar with that view!

    The closet was a bit dodgy, leaning over like it wanted to join me in bed. Not ideal!

    Unfortunately, the room had several maintenance issues, such as a broken minibar fridge and non-working lightbulbs that really dampened the experience. The breakfast selection was a bit offbeat, with stewed carrots and beans that might not appeal to everyone, and the bed was on the firm side which might not suit all preferences. Be prepared for fluctuating electricity standards-exposed wires felt disconcerting and could be a safety concern.

    I thoroughly appreciated the lovely garden area with seating, adorned with abundant greenery. The location is also highly accessible, great for leisurely strolls to the beach.
