JHB South East - Sep 2020

A quiet corner. A firepit.
The shade of a milkwood.
Happy days.
This privately owned bed and breakfast may be five star, but it’s not
stuffy. In fact, it’s the perfect spot to kick off your flip-flops at the
door, collapse on a sofa, and sip something cool while letting the
kids have fun.
There’s sophisticated, but laid-back accommodation – cool and
breezy, sea-facing, luxuriously furnished rooms. There’s a fabulous
family suite, but also a cleverly designed ‘Pod’ room, where the kids
sleep in bunk-like compartments.
There’s a lovely, casual restaurant, where the kitchen’s open all day
... dishing up holiday fare nachos, sushi and signature pizzas.
When the weather’s warm, you can relax in the sun on the pool
terrace, finding shade under the beautiful indigenous milkwood
trees, or head on up to the rooftop deck which overlooks the
entire bay. For cooler evenings, you can gather up the family and
sit round a cosy fire in the private tranquil boma area, with comfy
beanbags and oversized scatter cushions.
If you can bear to tear yourself away, there’s a beach just a pebble’s
throw away and loads of other attractions ... think hiking through
the Robberg Nature Reserve, taking a cruise on the Keurbooms
River, swimming, surfing, whale, dolphin and seal watching,
boating, fishing and kayaking - The Bungalow supplies kayaks, surf
and body boards to guests. Good grief, there’s more ... try cycling
and golfing, or a spot of birdwatching.
After the stressful months we’ve all had this year, we think falling
asleep to the soothing sounds of the sea are just what we need ...
see you there!
Rates are from R2400 for two sharing a room.

Take a surfboard and
catch the perfect wave.
If we’re going to sit on a
deck ... this is the one!
