The accommodation offers everything you need, whether for a short or long stay. Great location in town with safe parking and quiet street. Would definitely recommend staying here!
It is a great location with everything needed to make for a comfortable stay. The parking was safe and the coffee shop on the beach was a great place to sit and watch the sun rise.
Its was spacious, exceptionally clean, had coffee, tea, biscuits, milk, fruit juice (free) wine and beers with an honesty bar. Safe parking behind a gate. They had board games and wood for the fire. Great location and overall perfect for a family with teenagers.
Great location. Safe area.
Comfortable bed with clean linen Great location Safe parking for our car
Stewart the host was really great, offered lots of advice , and the breakfast was really good! Reef view b&b is in a great location and we would not hesitate toto stay again when in EL. Secure & safe parking as well and due to solar and batteries, the accommodation is not affected by load shedding which is a great piece of mind.
The staff is absolutely amazing when it comes to service and friendliness! The tubing company is connected to that hostel, which is highly recommended to do, just because you get the greatest guides with it. In the end, we actually spent more time with the staff and found friends in some of them than other backpackers who would just stay for a night. Come in and stay longer :)
Great location, very safe, amazing breakfast and the most wonderful hosts! We can fully recommend!
Amazing hostel. The staff is very welcoming, friendly and funny. The dorm is spacious, clean and has comfortable beds. Activities are cheap and amazing. The food is tasty and very affordable. This is the perfect type of hostel for solo travellers to meet other travellers of every age and background. You can reach the place by taking a bus like citiliner or intercape to Mthatha, Coffee Shack will pick you up with their shuttle (160 rands for a 1.5 hour drive).
