The roads going to and from are literally a death trap! Despite the accommodation saying that a small car can be used I would strongly not recommend it. We travelled in from New Zealand Sept 2022. The accommodation is well kept and the staff are welcoming.

Lovely place to take a complete break from it all. Excellent attentive staff, comfortable, well-furnished units. Close to the river, lagoon and beaches. Everything you need for your perfect wild coast break.

We have had a wonderful stay at Swell eco lodge. The lodge itself is very comfortable, the community is lovely and welcoming and the view is stunning. A special thanks to our host Machonisa who was so hospitable and made sure we had everything we needed. The gravel road to get there can be a challenge for smaller cars.

The way accommodation is described is not what you get. As if they intentionally split up travelling parties. Not willing to address complaints and then threaten you instead. What a disappointment after travelling so far.

I loved this place! This hotel is located right in the middle of the village which allows children to play with local children and meet people, which is not so easy in South Africa! The view of the sea is sublime and we saw whales and dolphins as if we had a spectacle before our eyes! The beach is superb! And the view from the room is magical! Be careful to have something to eat though ☺️
