"Dear Louise, Sarah and Team - Thank you once again for the most awesome 10 days! It has been paradise and can't wait to return again. See you soon!"

"A beautiful home where everything has been chosen and placed with lots of thought and care. Excellent service and many thanks to Princess for her patience with the children. But a huge thanks for a wonderful stay and we'll definitely be back."

"Louise and Sarah, Thank you for such a great stay. By far the most beautiful view we've experienced. We will certainly tell others about our time here. This is a very special place - a highlight during our SA adventure."

We were brought here as a suprise by our family here in SA as part of our holiday. I was speechless as I walked through the door by the stunning view - absolutely fantastic. So very beautiful, so uspoilt and calming.

"This was a very wonderful stay for us - thank you so much! On our trip along the coast of SA we stayed mostly in Backpackers or Hostels, and so THIS stay was kind of special for us! The view, the beach, the beautiful and quiet town and of course the service at the Oyster Box Beach House! Waking up and having breakfast served was also a very nice luxus! We'll surely recommend you!"

" What a wonderful first holiday in SA. Views absolutely wonderful - could stay quite happily sitting on the veranda, watching the sea. Relaxing, peaceful - just what the doctor ordered. And amazing cooking - thanks Nomhla."

"Another wonderful stay. Chocolate cake for Owen's 75th Birthday was excellent, thank you so much. As always just nice to leave and return to the rat race!"

"Despite a wetter than usual July in Kenton, we loved our stay in the house. Splendid views, great design made for a very relaxing stay. Thank you Sarah and staff for your service, making our stay as comfortable as possible."

"A wonderful visit to your part of the world. Kenton-On-Sea is a hidden treasure. Accommodation and helpfulness outstanding. Many thanks.

"Spectacular views, beautiful decor, wonderful food, professional service. All amazing!"

"We enjoyed our stay here and appreciate everything you did to make our wedding celebration perfect! I will never forget these past few weeks here in Kenton-On-Sea and hope to back very soon. We love you guys!"

"The Oyster Box Beach House has been our first experience of South Africa on our honeymoon. We love the place and personally I would love to live here in this house. It has been an amazing first experience of your beautiful country. The beaches, the sea, the people, the beach house - all fabulous...we will be back. Also Sarah and the chef have been brillant and really helpful."

"Loved our stay in 'the little sister'. Equally charming in its own way. Thank you ALL for looking after us so well in every way! We'll be back."

"What a wonderful place to begin our holiday in South Africa - it will certainly prove hard to beat. Thank you for such a memorable stay."

"And what a fantastic place to spend our last night - superb facilities, marvellous views and true Eastern Cape warmth."

"Two years ago, we said we would be back, and here we are. Four days in your lovely Oyster Box is still not enough time to enjoy all there is to offer. We had a wonderful time and hopefully will be back in another two years, for a week or more."

"Every new day (17 altogether) felt like another day in paradise! We travelled the world a lot, but didn't come across a place like the Oyster Box - this is a real gem! We were so well looked after by your staff and felt a warm hospitality. It's a perfect place to rewind body and soul in these tranquil surroundings."

"Watching the whales whilst sitting in bed is simply awesome!!!"

"Thank you Louise and Nic for such a lovely place. Nomhle, we are taking you back with us, you are a real pearl! We've experienced the best & will be back to rest..."

"One night is too short! Next time we'll book in for a week!! Thank you everything was perfect - you feel really close to heaven here!! God Bless!"

"Not only is this our most favorite place in the world, it is also one of the most wonderful houses we have stayed in. It's absolutely special how your exquisite taste blends in and adds to this extraordinary view. We feel so privileged and grateful to have had this joyful week. Thank you for your warm and welcoming hospitality!"
