Poor service, Poor accomodation

Not allocated the booked and paid for suite. Inattentive almost absent staff. Major gecko infestation inside and outside rooms gives this dated property an unhygienic appearance.

The fact that I could take my little dogs along is a massive PLUS. The staff are very friendly and pleasant even towards the animals. I highly recommend Petite Provence, to animal lovers, old, young and families. Parking is a little squeeze.

France meets South Africa

A tastefully decorated property with great attention to detail. The Coquelicot suite was a new spacious open plan room on the first floor, bi-folding doors opened onto a large balcony with tree top views towards the ocean. Cooked breakfast was good and the staff friendly and helpful. The garden and pool were well maintained and a pleasure to sit in. The beach was within walking distance as were some local restaurants. A lovely peaceful, clean b & b.

Old=fashioned B&B with a good breakfast

The room is quite outdated - the sink has two faucets, the floor seems old and there are no carpets, but the bed is comfortable and the TV has many channels. The breakfast was great and fulfilling, and the hosts were very helpful and welcoming.

So la la

Das Haus an sich ist ganz schön. Das Frühstück war super und die Damen beim Empfang und beim Service waren sehr nett. Zimmer 5 ist nicht zu empfehlen, es ist sehr dunkel, feucht und liegt unmittelbar beim frühstücksbereich. Die Feuchtigkeit war sehr unangenehm, so dass die Kleidung danach roch. Alles in allem würde ich zukünftig einen anderen Ort aufsuchen, allerdings war uns an der Nähe zum Flughafen Durban gelegen. Der ist übtotal chillig,
