Schoon, prima bed, douche en met uitzicht op zee. Wifi werkte niet en dat werd direct geregeld. Een zeer behulpzame eigenaar die assisteerde bij het laten werken van Apple CarPlay en ons hiervoor zijn eigen USB stick gaf.

Mooie kamr met zicht op zee. Goed voor tussenstop naar Drakensbergen.

Vrij duur, basisontbijt

Great location and lovely breakfast.

all good

L’emplacement, la vue, la chambre, l’équipe.

Le sol pas très propre et collant avec l’humidité de la mer je pense.

The location was excellent and the owner was really kind and friendly. We enjoyed the view and the proximity to the beach. The apartment was spacious.

I do believe the apartment could have been cleaner. The one bathroom had no shower curtain , there is a need for airing out the apartment. I am not sure if there is a similar issue to the b&b part , but the apartment was extremely stuffy and damp . We battled with sinus and made the stay unpleasant.

Das Haus ist wohnlich eingerichtet. Es wirkt wie ein schönes Eigenheim einer netten Familie. Die Aussicht vom Frühstücksraum ist sehr schön. Das Hotel liegt am Meer und Restaurants sind fußläufig erreichbar. Das Frühstück war reichhaltig und Eierspeisen wurden frisch zubereitet. Es liegt nah zum Flughafen.

Die Möbel im Zimmer wirkten auf den ersten Blick schön, waren aber schon in die Jahre gekommen. Der Schrank ließ sich nicht schließen. Die Zimmertür klemmte.

Everything.

Everything was perfect.

breakfast was excellent complimented by a great view

Geniale Lage direkt am Strand, tolle Nähe zum Flughafen, abends sichere Spaziergänge am Strand und im Dorf, nette Menschen vor Ort

Beautiful setting with stunning ocean views. Bedroom clean, beautiful linen. Breakfast delish. Will definitely be back.

Das Fairlight Beach House hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen. Die Lage direkt am Strand ist unschlagbar. Durch die leicht erhöhte Position der Unterkunft hat man sowohl von den Zimmern als auch vom Frühstücksraum aus eine absolut traumhafte Aussicht auf den Ozean – der perfekte Ort, um den Tag zu beginnen! Das Personal war unglaublich hilfreich und hat uns bei der Ankunft alles ausführlich erklärt, sodass wir uns sofort orientieren konnten. Das Frühstück war ebenfalls ein Highlight: super Qualität und eine große Auswahl. Wer Meeresrauschen und Gastfreundschaft sucht, ist hier genau richtig!

Everything us beautiful and comfortable and it’s so clean

Wir haben auf unserer Südafrika Rundreise im November zwei Nächte im Fairlight Beach House übernachtet. Das Zimmer war groß und sauber. Das Hotel liegt direkt am Meer, hat einen gepflegten Garten mit Pool. Frühstück ist sehr gut und man kann beim Frühstück die Aussicht auf das Meer genießen. Aufenthaltsräume und offene Küche sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Personal sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Fußläufig sind Restaurants in kurzer Entfernung zu erreichen. Parkplätze sind vorhanden und das Gasthaus befindet sich in einer sicheren Gegend. Wir können das Hotel bedenkenlos weiterempfehlen.

Kleiner Tipp an das Personal beim Frühstück. Einfach etwas eher mit der Frühstücksvorbereitung anfangen damit der Gast um 7,00 Uhr auch die Köstlichkeiten genießen kann und nicht warten muss.

The Location is superb. The staff delightful and after meeting the owner and hearing about the history all that more memorable. Really awesome to g to a place that is family owned and hands on. Also brilliant to know that when we called for any queries that Collin was on the ball.

To be honest, the room we had ie Peter was not a first time great experience due to the visitors in the David room next door. They not only smoked all night but drank and were quite loud so we did not thoroughly enjoy the ambience of location and room to its fullest. In saying that though, we will definitely be back and will request the Michelle or Roxanne on recommendation from the Owners.

Sehr netter Eigentümer, welcher einem sehr gerne weiterhilft.

Close to beach

This was a very disappointing experience and not what I expect and know from a 4-star guesthouse. After checking in, several issues were identified, including being allocated a room that did not match what was booked, cleanliness concerns in the room, and a parking arrangement that posed safety concerns. These matters were raised directly with the owner/manager. Following our discussion, he acknowledged that the situation was unacceptable and confirmed that a refund would be processed after my booking was reduced from two nights to one night. It was explained that the refund could not be returned to the card and would instead be done via EFT. I only wanted a refund for the additional night as I refused to stay there one more day. Having to clean your own bathtub before using it and then provide physical proof of the buildup to the owner is unacceptable and unhygienic. More than a month has now passed and no refund has been received, despite multiple follow-ups. Communication has since stopped, and the promised refund has not been honoured. I travel to Durban weekly for business and stay at various accommodations. Based on both the experience and the way this matter was handled afterward, I do not recommend this property at all and will not stay here again.

Die Lage ist perfekt da direkt am Meer gelegen und dieses in Flip Flops oder barfuß erreichbar ist. Super schöne Zimmer mit tollem Blick auf das Meer. Die gesamte Unterkunft strahlt ein sehr familiäres Flair aus. Collin und sein Team sind tolle Gastgeber und bei Fragen immer ansprechbar und hilfsbereit. Das Frühstück wird liebevoll und individuell zubereitet. Der Kaffee ist eine Klasse für sich. Wir fühlten und sehr wohl und eine Nacht war definitiv zu kurz. Auch bei einem nächtlichen Spaziergang fühlten wir uns komplett sicher. Vielen Dank für die Möglichkeit eines late check-out. Wir kommen sehr gerne wieder.

Die Länge unseres Aufenthaltes, wir wären sehr gerne länger geblieben !!

We had an excellent stay at Fairlight Beach House. The location was exceptional, the staff are friendly and welcoming and the breakfast was very good. Close to quality restaurants and the Sibaya Coastal Forest Reserve for an early morning hike.

Spacious room, fabulous views (even with side view room), very friendly staff

Just some minor bits as overall a great stay: A small fridge in room would be great. Cooked breakfast took a long time to arrive some of the days. Parking space not for beginners but very safe.

Emma was an excellent person to deal with. She catered for the expected items brilliantly.

Very clean and friendly staff. Fresh and crisp linen, fresh towels and a few steps from the beach. Beautiful coffee shop outside and a real pleasure to stay. I loved it.

Not a single thing

The spaciousness of the rooms, the cleanliness, the friendly staff, view's are just absolutely breathtaking. Dont loon any further, this is the sanctuary to be!

Honestly there was NOTHING I would have changed.

Great location, beach just in front of the house. Room was very clean, got an upgrade which was very nice. Seaview possible. Bed was comfortable and clean and large. Breakfast was tasty. Some restaurants available about 300m to walk. Safe environment. Room and bathroom were very bright.

Above the entrance door there was glass. So the light from floor could shine in the room.

Location was excellent, right at the beach. Property has a coffee shack on the corner which had a nice vibe in the morning. Superb view of the beach. Breakfast was top notch.

Lovely staff Stunning view and location Delicious breakfast. Special mention for the banana bread

The location was perfect with amazing ocean views visible from the bed. Falling asleep and waking up to waves was bliss.The air-conditioning was much appreciated in the heat. The breakfast was great with a wide variety

The shower drained very poorly and was dirty. The tv and bedside lamps were covered in dust. The wall where the tv was mounted and the wall with the dresser had large brown stains that looked like something had been split on them and hadn't been cleaned

Beautiful location, friendly staff, good breakfast. The dining area was part of a house which had nice art on the walls from local artists.

Très proche de la plage!

On aurait aimé voir les propriétaires mais ce sera pour la prochaine fois!

Schoon, je loopt zo naar het strand.

Position, facilities in general.

Heads up for future guests:- lot of steps outside to access rooms. It was raining during our stay. We discovered umbrellas by the front door on our last morning; umbrellas in rooms would be helpful! Leaving instructions say to leave key with reception or in box. Couldn't find a box. Have to use key to open gate to get out. Then to get back in to climb up to reception to find someone to open gate to let us out again. Got very wet (that's when we saw the umbrellas!!). Lower parking got very wet and boggy. Also, balcony is actually a shared access to other rooms and parking.

Stunning location overlooking quiet beach with little traffic as it’s a cul de sac! Service was lovely, with a great breakfast too.

Refreshing decor and location. Fall asleep to the waves and wake up to paradise

Thank you

Overheerlijk ontbijt en vriendelijk personeel

Niet zo proper (vloer plakte en er was veel schimmel in de badkamers).

The rooms are massive and beautifully decorated. The staff is very welcoming and friendly

Location... this is truly a beach front property. Serbjce was great and breakfast was excellent.

I wish i had stayed longer... that's it.

The location of the property is amazing and they serve good food with a variety of freshly baked goods, fruit and yogurt. The lady at reception and the young man who took our breakfast orders really gave great service throughout our stay. They were helpful and just great human beings!

I will introduce your establishment to my employees. Looking forward spending time with you and my family again.

It felt like familiy with staff, and the location was exceptional.

that we had to leave!

As a person who has traveled to all 7 continents and experienced many different hotels and BnB’s….the Fairlight gets a 6 or 7 Star rating from myself and my Lady. Besides the beautiful clean rooms and delicious breakfast, the beach and the Indian Ocean are across the street. There are also two superb lunch/dinner restaurants a 6 or 7 minute walk away. Quite simply the Best Accommodations you can dream of at an excellent price point. Spencer Rice

View is stunning

Breathtaking views, luckily to have seen the glow in the ocean. Will be definitely booking again. Can't wait.

Beautiful property with spacious rooms and spectacular views over the ocean.

The place is very clean, the staff members were very kind, the breakfast was great and the view was spectacular 😍.

I have stayed here about 5 years ago and you still get the same subtle and genuine experience. This is a pleasant and beautiful place and it is good value for money on top of that Thank you so much for the time

Just as advertised! The pictures didn’t lie and the beach house was exceptional. Gorgeous views. Stunning facilities. Clean. Beautiful. Tasty breakfast. Truly one of the best air bnbs I’ve stayed in. Thank you so much to the friendly staff. What a special visit!!!
