    I was absolutely blown away by the beautiful entrance garden at Lazy Lizard. The sight of the lovely trees as I opened my door was simply breathtaking. The attention to detail in the furniture spoke of an everlasting history, creating a calming atmosphere. And let me tell you about the bed! It was incredibly comfortable, with duvets and pillows so soft, it felt like being cradled in a mother's nurturing touch. The serene environment was further enhanced by the peaceful sounds of birds chirping. The staff at Lazy Lizard were extremely respectful and loving, ensuring that every guest was well taken care of. The location was also fantastic, with a new ocean mall just a short walk away. I felt incredibly safe during my stay, and the secure parking provided added peace of mind. I could go on and on about this lovely guest home. Thank you, Lazy Lizard, for the unforgettable experience. I'm already looking forward to my next holiday there.

    There was nothing to complain about during my stay. It's just a pity that I couldn't stay longer.

    From the moment we arrived, we felt at home. Fresh milk in the fridge, bonus coffee, and a cozy atmosphere made our stay even better. The provided amenities were top-notch, including free Wi-Fi and a full DSTV package. The DIY breakfast and extra touches like fruit and fresh milk were unexpected and appreciated. The cleanliness and value for money were outstanding.

    I had an amazing stay at this hotel. The staff were very respectful and loving, taking excellent care of me during my stay. The location was great, with everything I needed just a short walk away. The facilities were fantastic, with clean rooms, comfortable beds, and a full DSTV package. I also loved the light "DIY" breakfast provided in the room.

    Nothings.

    My recent stay in a cozy seaside cottage was a dream come true. The fresh milk, coffee and sugar gave us the energy boost we needed after our long journey. The comfortable beds, fast wifi and open TV channels kept us entertained throughout our stay. We also loved the peaceful and safe location, with easy access to nearby shops, restaurants and the beach.

    The air conditioning system was too cold for us at night, so we had to use extra blankets to stay warm. A ceiling fan or stand-alone fan would have been a great addition to the room to provide a gentle breeze and better sleeping conditions.

    I had an amazing experience at this cozy guest home. the surrounding gardens were beautiful and created a peaceful atmosphere. the room was well-kept, clean, and had comfortable beds with soft pillows and duvets. the staff were friendly, accommodating, and provided excellent service. They even relaxed the check-out time to allow us to fully enjoy our stay. We appreciated the light breakfast, fresh fruit, and jug of milk provided in the room. the location was great, with many shops and restaurants nearby and a short distance to the beach.

    My city break stay exceeded all my expectations. the entrance garden was stunning, providing a wow factor upon arrival. the full DSTV package and free Wi-Fi were a fantastic bonus, surpassing what other establishments offer. the key location was perfect, with everything just a walk away. the comfortable bed and quiet surroundings made for a relaxing stay.

    There were no gifts to purchase or give to friends or family. the lack of gifts was more than made up for by the exceptional care and respect shown by the staff.
