A MAZE ING

We booked Roseroc for one night at the last minute based on reviews and we were NOT disappointed. Kevin, our genial host is a mine of information. He suggested a great restaurant you could walk to although we drove and other interesting things to do.The breakfast was fantastic. We recommend the "Roseroc" poached egg. I will try to recreate this at home. We would not hesitate to recommend Roseroc. I'm not sure quite how my wife found this little gem nestled away but she must be amazing too.

An absolute Rose of a place amongst many thorns

Such a pleasant location in a beautiful place we’d go back in a heartbeat. Everything about Roseroc was fantastic. Kevin was a wonderful host and throughout our stay we had excellent service, whether that was the lovely touches in the evening of port and chocolates, or advice about places to go and restaurant recommendations or the fabulous breakfasts, we had a wonderful stay. Nothing was too much hassle, the hotel is closely located to everything you’ll need and it just made for a very relaxing stay.

We have just spent 2 nights at Roseroc. We had a lovely room with balcony over looking gardens and super views of the lagoon. Kevin was a great host and most helpful in restaurant and things to do recommendations. The breakfast was very good. The ‘Roseroc poached eggs were divine’. The was a glass of port and little shortbread biscuit waiting for us on return from our dinner, a lovely end to the evenings. The guest house is walkable to the waterfront but we got Ubers back with no problem. We would return again if back in SA.
