Unforgettable stay with amazing people
I cannot express how wonderful our stay was. Rob and Diane literally welcome as if it’s your own home with incredible facilities and the best breakfasts we had on our two week trip, we loved it! Our room was so spacious with a private garden and the whole house was beautiful. It was a pleasure to spend time on this gorgeous island and we will 100% return for longer next time, it was a highlight of our whole trip.

Deze accommodatie is een echte aanrader! Diana en Rob zijn betrokken en zorgzame hosts met een flinke dosis humor! Ze willen je overal mee helpen. De suite was ruim en sfeervol ingericht. Het ontbijt is heerlijk en de specials van Rob zijn gevarieerd en super lekker! Wij komen graag nog een keer terug!

Diane und Rob sind zwei herzensgute Gastgeber, die sich mit voller Hingabe diesem Guesthouse widmen. Sie stellen sicher, dass sich jeder Gast wohl fühlt und bedienen beim Frühstück selbst. Die beiden Leben mit in den Guesthouse. Besonders zu betonen ist Robs „Special“, welches es jeden morgen zum Frühstück gibt - immer was anderes, aber homemade! Wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Relax in Leisure Island in a perfect Bed&Breakfast
One on bollard is a perfect vacation getaway. The hosts are most welcoming, the rooms are big and comfortable and the breakfast is beyond delicious. Everything is home made starting from the butter and bread. They also serve a special of the day which is a creative sweet or savory dish. Leisure Island as a destination is a must in South Africa due its beautiful scenery and relaxed atmosphere. I can highly recommend!
