Reviews for Amanda's B&B
Review 1：Wouldnt know a thing not to like.
Review 2：Beautiful house with grest ocean view. Everything was clean. There is paid so much attention to every little detail. We loved our room and were able to sneak peak into the others since the doors stood open (we checked in ealier - thanks again for making that possible - so no other guests were there yet) and trust me they are all gorgeous. We felt like home from the very first minute. Very secure town. Amanda is a super nice and caring owner. Her breakfast was delicious as well. This was our best B&B on our 3 week trip. We would highly recommend staying there. Such an great value for the price paid.
Review 3：Outstanding home with excellent facilities, wonderful welcome, lovely room with nice view over the ocean, great breakfast, very clean and well appointed.
Review 4：This was really home away from home. The hospitality and friendly service were excellent. The breakfast every morning devine. This is definitely our next holiday venue. Thank you Amanda for the excellent service and brilliant room. Gerhardt & Elmarie du Toit
Review 5：Booked a double room at Amanda's but we were upgraded to a King with a full sea view which was a lovely surprise. The room and bathroom were beautifully decorated. Breakfast was wonderful and plenty to choose from. Amanda was very helpful and directed us to a lovely family run restaurant.
Review 6：Stunning breakfast, good location, very pleasant and helpful host, Pool, seaview from 1st floor rooms, ambiente, possibility to Store luggage After check-out
Review 7：There was no airconditioning in the room we stayed (5). Luckily the fan worked well, so it was not so hot.
Review 8：Staying at Amanda's BB was a real pleasure. Amanda is such a nice lady, doing her utmost to make you feel at home. The room was very clean, and the bed was really good. The breakfast was fantastic.
Review 9：Attention to detail, friendly and caring manner and individual attention. Wonderful views of the sea and beautiful sunrise after an extremely comfortable night's sleep. Most enjoyable breakfast everything done to perfection.
Review 10：Amanda went out of her way to help us with travel plans and even put our wet clothes in her dryer and returned them folded. That is what I call excellent service!
Review 11：We were blown away by the fact that the area was very safe, clean and we could park our vehicle outside with no worries. On our first trip Amanda upgraded us to a room upstairs at no charge, which we appreciated. On our return trip the B&B was full, so we had the downstairs room - which we loved more than the upstairs one :) Recommended to everyone. Thanks Amanda
Review 12：Nothing except the rain and if Amanda could control that she would as nothing is too much trouble for her guests.
Review 13：Our 3rd visit and Amanda's B&B has never let us down. Amanda is the perfect hostess, the omelettes for breakfast are superb, as is the whole place, clean, well decorated and so very comfortable. Sitting on the balcony watching the sea is the perfect place to relax and unwind with a glass of wine from the fridge. The small kitchen area has everything you may need complete with microwave and home made biscuits. The sherry and chocolates are very welcome after a long drive. A wonderful place to stay. What more can be said!
Review 14：Nothing to complain about, was enjoyable all round.
Review 15：Amanda was very friendly, our room as very spacious and extremely clean. All round very pleasant stay. Will definitely be back, especially for her famous omelettes.
Review 16：Limited choices for an evening meal.
Review 17：Good location on the sea front. The beach across the road shingle type sand but a pleasant walk along the front to main sandy beach with a beautiful lagoon.
Review 18：Overall Amanda's B&B was lovely and the room as very comfy. The only thing missing was an aircon, we were fortunate to have cooler weather but if it had been a hot day it may have been uncomfortable with just a fan.
Review 19：Ok, the wi-fi was a little slow but that's not really why I go on vacation!
Review 20：Walking distance to the beach, beautifully appointed rooms and a lovely breakfast - what more could you want!?
Review 21：Wanted to stay longer ...
Review 22：Great hospitality, very nice service - attention into smallest details (a fresh flower in the room, a small chocolate etc). Location: sea view! Very clean rooms
Review 23：The room we had, I think it was No.4 has an open plan bathroom / toilet which made the air feel a little damp after showering but other than that the room was fine. Just a pity everything seems to close in Gonubie is closed by 9.00pm
Review 24：Amanda made us so welcome from the minute we arrived. Nothing was too much trouble. You could ask her if I left my belts there.
Review 25：Very friendly owners and a relaxing place. Amanda welcomed us with extra flowers and sherry. The room was very clean and smelled fantastic. Bathroom inclusive bathrobe invited for a relaxing bath. The lodge is very close to the sea and a very beautiful lagoon. Thank you for the amazing stay.
Review 26：Friendly owner, very helpfull. We had a wonderfull view over the ocean with the whales. The details do make it feel like home. Some sherry with a candy does the trick that you're welcome. It's supurb!
Review 27：.Hospitality .Effective and Efficient welcome and service .Every Room has own access, eliminating the need to disturb other guests when arriving late .Perfect and easy to find location.
Review 28：Nothing
Review 29：My husband and I booked at Amanda's to attend a colleague's wedding of which they recommended the place. Well found the place so peaceful and restful. One could hear the waves from the room which helped us to rest after the travelling. Thanks for sharing your shells too. My husband treasures them. A walk away from the beach...
Review 30：Everything was over and above my expectations. Nothing negative or that could have been done better. This stay is exceptional.
Review 31：All of it. We had amazing rooms, very warm welcome. There were fine finishing touches everywhere - from Port to chocolate, lamps for the outdoor tables and so much more. The beds and linen were above par and so much so that we want to buy a similar bed ourselves. The breakfast and coffee combined with such a friendly and warm service in a beautiful decorated breakfast table was just the cherry on the top. It was wonderful and by far our best stay in our whole three week tour of SA. Highly recommended.

Review 80：Nothing to dislike!!
Review 81：This was our second visit here and it was as good as I remembered. We had the same upstairs room, with a beautiful bathroom and with a lovely view across the road to the sea from the covered balcony, the perfect place to sit and watch the stars and the sea with a glass of wine. This is one of the few places I have stayed where the room is so well equipped, microwave, plates cutlery, wine glasses, bottle openers etc. The room was spotless as is the entire property. Amanda, was away, but we were looked after extremely well by Belinda, her sister, who did a brilliant job, and whose breakfasts were wonderful and she made us feel so welcome We WILL be back. In my opinion this is the best B&B ever!!

Review 84：Amanda's B&B offers a great value for money, the surrounding areas and the refreshing sea view just elevates the area to another level. It is pleasant and very quiet not to mention romantic for a young couple. The service received from the entire staff was amazing and the rooms are so elegant and suitable for any type of vacation!!
Review 85：Amanda was an excellent hostess. We were leaving early the following morning and she was so accommodating in preparing our breakfast for that time of the day. This was a great place as a starting point for drive over the Transkei (Wild Coast) to Durban.
Review 86：Nothing was too much of a problem, we were made to feel very welcome and comfortable. We would definitely recommend Amanda's B&B to anyone. We will be back.
Review 87：Lack of privacy in the bathroom.
Review 88：Amanda was very hospitable & made us feel totally at home. The access to our room was private. View was beautiful. Thought the "welcome" sherry was a very nice touch.
