Gorgeous beachfront house with standout breakfast

We had a fantastic stay at Xanadu. An absolutely beautiful beachfront location and a fantastically well kept house. It really felt like our own beach house for the three days we were there, so we could live out our Grace and Frankie fantasies. Albert was very helpful, and the freshly cooked breakfast was a particular highlight with the staff super accommodating, warm and friendly. Would definitely stay again.

PENSE EM UMA ESTADIA FANTÁSTICA!!!!

Excepcional a estadia nesta casa do casal Albert. Que atendimento!!! que fartura no café da manhã!! que quarto espetacular e com um chuveiro muito bom mesmo, além de cama ultra confortável. O Sr. Albert cuida pessoalmente de tudo o que voce precisa. Frigobar abastecido e totalmente de graça!! e repõe diariamente o que voce consome. A casa é de cair o queixo de tão bonita, bem conservada e com uma decoração simplesmente MARAVILHOSA. Acredita que o Sr. Albert disponibiliza um ambiente de decoração impecável, com um bar e uma adega de vinhos muito ampla.... sabe qual o custo??? aquilo que voce achar que vale deposita voluntariamente em um recipiente !! olha que escolha fantástica. Se voltar a Africa do Sul, irei novamente na casa do casal Albert.

Paradise by the Ocean.

Xanadu Guest Villa is a lovely place to stay. We were welcomed by Albert with refreshing drinks, who then gave us suggestions of places to visit and local restaurants. The gardens of the villa lead directly onto the beach, which is lovely for long walks. We stayed in the Neptune Suite, which was very comfortable and spacious, and had great views of the beach. Albert and his wife have tried to think what guests would like and might need- there are snacks, fruit, water, wine, sherry and soft drinks, and additionally a sewing kit and a steam iron! Our only wish is that we could have stayed longer!

Beautiful.

This was possibly the best hotel of the entire trip. The main part of the guest house is like a museum with relaxing music and luxurious art. The bed was massive and the bedroom beautiful. The back garden opens out into a wonderful but quiet beach with stunning views. It really does feel like a five star stay. Well recommended as a stop off on the garden route. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Atemberaubende Aussicht auf den Indischen Ozean

Die Xanadu Guest Villa ist eine sehr schöne und individuell eingerichtete Unterkunft mit einem atemberaubenden Ausblick auf den Indischen Ozean. Mit etwas Glück und Geduld wird man von Delfinen begrüßt. Der direkt vor der Villa gelegene kilometerlange Sandstrand lädt zu einem gemütlichen und romantischen Spaziergang ein. Die Gastgeber und das Personal sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Zentrum von Wilderness mit zahlreichen Restaurants liegt nur wenige Fahrminuten entfernt.

Finest guest house on the Garden Route

You can tell why this place has won so much acclaim. Finest quality from the moment you push open the cavernous front door. Sea view rooms book fast and while we only had a mountain view room we certainly enjoyed sitting in the lounge. And when the breakers are high it.s a superb place to sit and watch this particular endless action.

Lovely guest house right on the beach

I stayed at Xanadu for only one night before moving on along the garden route. I wish I could have stayed longer! The guest house was beautifully with amazing views (and sounds!) of the sea - there was a really relaxing atmosphere. The breakfast was fantastic and the host was particularly helpful in making arrangements for dinner.
