"Perfect , quiet B&B"
1 night Arrived 17 Jan 2016
"A very good, relaxed, tranquil B&B which was perfect for us to stay overnight and recover from the journey from Europe.
Nice for bird-watching and there is an excellent Portugese/Mozambique sea-food restaurant 5 mins away. Helpful owner and a superb breakfast the next day." See all these reviews: 21n in Namibia; 5n in South Africa

"Great overnight stop at end of long flight"
1 night Arrived 17 Oct 2015
"This is nice and convenient stop at the end of a long flight, the rooms are practical clean and tidy, (if a bit violet!). The dining room and garden are spacious and tidy, and secure parking.
The proprietress was very helpful with advice on dinner venues, and instructions on how to get to Joes! I was glad we had taken the later flight a day earlier, so didn't have a long drive on arrival.
It is in a quiet suburb, but convenient for the main roads in and out of town, even has a small pool,not used by us though!" See all these reviews: 15n in Namibia

"Convenient and quiet"
2 nights Arrived 15 Sep 2015
"This was a tranquil spot to recover after our journey with places to sit outside and in. Our room did not feel particularly private as its French doors faced the dining room but this was not a major issue as we were either asleep or out and about during our stay. We appreciated the availability of tea and coffee throughout the day as well as a very good breakfast.
We were assisted with recommendations for dinner and a trusted taxi company." See all these reviews: 16n in Namibia
