"SEAS THE SUN will see our little family again and again and again! Its cosy, squeaky clean and has everything you need and more, and the owner is an absolute gem of a lady. Our holiday was too short, I could have stayed there longer..." 8 June - Tanya Botes "We had a great time there. It truly is an amazing part of the Western Cape with the most beautiful sunsets. Everything we needed was at our disposal. Thank you for opening up your home to us." 21 May - Stephen White
