Probably one of most beautiful places on entire Southern African coastline & ideally sitting from Maputo & Park, as well as Ponta do Ouro & KZN SA border. Superb
Consultant Review:
Helpful and quick response
Things to improve:
Sending a short house instructions & what must be brought, what is in house & what can be bought nearby. But overall it's excellent & no complaints
A Slice of Paradise with Impeccable Service
The house boasts breathtaking views from every room, and has so many areas to choose from to sit and enjoy a book, a chat or a glass of wine.
The kitchen is a culinary enthusiast's dream come true, equipped with everything one could possibly need to create magnificent meals. However, with chef Moses at the helm, we were truly spoiled - Moses planned every meal with us and then went the extra mile to create them along with his team.
What sets this place apart is the exceptional staff. Led by the calmly efficient Maryna, the team goes above and beyond to ensure a perfect stay. Their friendliness, helpfulness, and attention to detail made us feel pampered and at home.
This property offers not just luxurious accommodation, but an unforgettable experience enhanced by this wonderful team. A wonderful holiday!

We had amazing service from GoBundu. Lize is professional, quick to respond and goes out of her way to help her clients out.

I cannot think of a thing to make our stay better. If I had to really be pedantic, I’d say bedside lamps would be a welcome addition.
