Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed and shown to our gorgeous sea facing ‘Aqua Room’ situated on the ground floor. One’s immediate reaction on arrival and seeing the stunning view of the beach and sea is WOW! WOW WOW! The room was tastefully decorated and luxurious with direct access to the private patio and beach, which made you feel like... More

We celebrated our first 3 days on honeymoon here. The rooms were spacious. Views stunning, a stone throw from the cold beach. 5 star breakfasts!! Lovely splash pool. And completely unobtrusive service. A beautiful boutique hotel worth every cent. Will definately try to go back! Was a rare gem in this small town.

It's rare that one finds a hotel that fits every expectation that one hopes to find when you go away. The Paternoster Dunes Boutique Hotel and Spa is one such find. Attention to detail, friendly, yet unobtrusive staff and a setting that defies all logic ensure a very special and relaxing time away. The owners have managed to bridge the... More

We truely enjoyed our Easter w'end sojourn, the hosts are attentive and responsive, the location could not get better (especially if you book into one of the sea facing ground floor suites), and the dinner party that was arranged for us was of Michelin standard! Thank you all.

This is an exquiste Boutique Guest House, which has been lovingly, tastefully and artfully decorated with every consideration, towards a home away from home. We stayed in the Red Suite which was beautifully decorated to say the least, in shades of red, with a seperate relaxing lounging area which was perfect for our 4 day stay. We loved the privacy...

We spent the Easter long weekend at Paternoster Dunes. Even before we arrived the service was Impressive. Our hosts made sure we were booked into first class restaurants every night and pre-arranged our spa treatments so we wouldn't miss out. The room was fantastic - well appointed with everything one would need or want along with a charming terrace which... More

While on a trip up the West Coast to Paternoster in late November we were very fortunate to arrive during crayfish season (lobster) with crayfish abounding and vendors everywhere. This seaside village is absolutely charming, with wonderful sights and sounds. We were even more blessed to find a little gem of a guesthouse called Paternoster Dunes Boutique Guest House. This...

We enjoyed the welcome and hospitality, amazing views, super breakfasts, sheltered pool, arty furnishings and general good vibes. They had booked restaurants for us in advance which was much needed at the peak of the holiday season. Overall great fun.
