“Wonderful relaxing atmosphere- highly recommend the”
+The property is very private with a lovely outdoor area with a barbecue/braai. The cottage is neat and well equipped with everything you capuld want. The location was amazing a very short walk and you are in the beautiful Cintsa beach. Close to shop and eatery and bar. The host family are delightful - nothing is too much trouble.

“Lovely Comfy Cottage”
+I loved my stay here. The cottage is lovely and tidy with a great little outdoor area for a braai. The location is great being only a few minutes walk from the beach and shops. Margie and Chris are wonderful hosts who are extremely accomodating and friendly. I hope to come back one day :)
−The Wifi is quite weak which might be an issue if you needed to work (which I sometimes do) but if you’re having a relaxing time away then it’s no problem

“I had a restful and comfortable stay and was able to swim every day as the beach is close by.”
+the location was perfect and the hosts went beyond expectations to assist and make my stay as comfortable as possible.
−Maybe a back-up gas cooking plate for when the power goes out to boil water and cook. The hostess kindly assisted by boiling water for me.

“Marlin Cottage is a worthwhile getaway cottage.”
+We loved the garden setting and the privacy of the cottage..The beds are comfortable - my priority ! Our hosts, Margie and Christopher, were phenomenal: they are friendly and always at hand to advise on activities to help you maximise your experience and they are uber attentive to your needs. The beach is a stone’s throw away, there’s a local park where crafters set up and families picnic. A beach bar is Spoils like receiving a Welcome Lindt choc, a well-stocked coffee bar, having your braai area prepared, bringing in another fan just because we commented on the humidity, checking in to assess whether our happiness meter was still at full blast etc - made our stay a good experience. We adored them- they know how to be professional yet warm. We enjoyed our 4 days there.
−Nothing to Moan about.
