We found the property just as we thought it would be - you get what you pay for. A budget we could afford but also safe and secure. We had everything we needed. What made it an exceptional stay was the staff ! Anitia was an absolute gem and would rate as a super host in our opinion. The friendliness efficiency and the endless willingness to go over and above of what was expected was amazing. Anything from organizing Uber rides, helping with information or catering to special food requests and just basically appearing whenever we needed something..........always smiling helpful and very efficient. In future when visiting in the area, this would be our first choice! What an amazing host !

tony says much better than any hotel.

excellent thats all I can say I can really say I was really happy I chose the Saffron guest house from the excellent service from karla and Christo and the ladys who cleaned my room, and they served a great breakfast and the location was really good, right by the beach and a really good bus service into town, much better than any hotel I've stayed in.

Close to the beach!

Our room had a very thin door, the safe and the tv didn’t work. In the bathroom there were two small shelfs in glass nearly coming of the the wall. The breakfast was good with everything you could possibly need and Geraldine makes really nice coffee! A nice place to stay for a couple of days if you wan’t to be close to Cape Town but also enjoy a bit of beach life!

Dezember 2017 noch im Bau

Unser Zimmer war einfach noch nicht fertig renoviert. Im Frühstücksraum gabe es nicht genügend Tische für alle Gäste. Unsere Kinder mussten getrennt von uns frühstücken. Die Aussenanlagen des Gästehauses sind zum Teil sehr ungepflegt. Ein Schlafzimmer der angeblichen Suite war nur über das Bad zugänglich, auch nicht gerade ideal.
