Excellent location of property with a local French charm. The 09h30 breakfast closure time is rather childish especially on weekends, come on extend the time. Hot water ran out, maybe it was a maintenance problem during my stay...would be awkward if it was permanent. Overall lovely

"We're delighted to report that our third stay at Petit Provence was just as enchanting as the first two. The comfort of our bed was surpassed only by the warmth of the staff, who once again proved themselves to be attentive and accommodating. The hotel's location is ideal, with the beach is a short walk away and Thompson's and Willard's beaches a short drive.While the dog-friendly atmosphere was a major draw for us, it's the Petit Provence's understated elegance and tranquil ambiance that keeps us coming back. The beautifully appointed rooms, lovely pool, and subtle French charm all contribute to a truly relaxing experience. Merci for another wonderful stay – we'll be back!" 🌟

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.

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The room is quite outdated - the sink has two faucets, the floor seems old and there are no carpets, but the bed is comfortable and the TV has many channels.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,
