The location can't be beat. The trail along the bluff makes for the best morning and evening strolls, as it overlooks the beaches below. The unit was great, clean and quiet. The bed-linen and silverware can be replaced, as it has reached the end-of-life. The Brento-on-sea location is a very peaceful location along this coastline, and the views are beyond special.

dezentral aber sehr schön

Sehr freundliche Gastgeber, super Ausblick, aber ein Stück zu fahren von Knysna aus. Unterkunft ist mit allem Notwendigen ausgestattet, nur die Fenster werden in Südafrika wohl selten geputzt. Außerdem waren viele kleine Fliegen an den Decken. Ansonsten aber alles gut. Spülmaschine etc. ist vorhanden, aber keine Tabs. Salz, Zucker etc. sollte in kleinen Mengen bereitgestellt werden..
