Hidden up a little back road, Dolphin Crescent, is this gem of a b&b. Our room was immaculate and had sea views in two directions. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The bathroom was spacious, with both a large bath and a shower. Our host and hostess were very friendly, chatting to us and giving us valuable information for... More

Errol and Caryl are great hosts. The accommodation is good, the breakfasts are superb and you are in an excellent location for some wonderful golf courses. Highly recommended.

I can't speak highly enough of Lalaria I was sorry we had only booked two nights and I would have no hesitation to return or recommend to others. The owners Caryl and Error could not be more welcoming and friendly a perfect balance of a homely but professional feel. Lalaria combines the welcome of a small guest house with the... More

We have stayed at Lalaria three times now and cannot wait for our next trip! Caryl and Errol are excellent hosts and make you feel most welcome. It is a wonderful place and cannot fault it. The breakfasts are out of this world with a great choice. There are excellent restaurants a short drive away especially Beira Alta - you... More

Excellent standard of accomodation and a lovely building. Exquisite linen and service, a wonderful breakfast and lovely pool, very relaxing though sadly the weather let us down a little. Location is a little isolated as nowhere to dine without a car but a good selection of local places to eat within a 10 min drive and those we used were... More

We booked there because of the good reviews and a Trip Advisor member recommendation but the place isn't what we expected. It's good for a "bed and breakfast" if you have a sea view room but that' s it. The other rooms aren't nice at all. It's just a one night place. You can't spend any time there. The pool... More

We understand that people are disappointed when they experience bad weather on holiday, especially a beach holiday. However, nothing can be done about it and of course high winds affect the sea conditions too, making it dangerous to swim. One should feel reassured that the lifeguards make the decision to ban swimming if lives are at risk. Our sparkling, protected... More

We stayed 2 nights at the end of our holiday in South Africa. We weren't all that interested in sightseeing in the area as we'd had a hectic couple of weeks - we just wanted somewhere pleasant to wind down before travelling home. Everything about the guest house is just superb - the house, the rooms, the view, the gardens,... More

This is a stunning house in a fabulous location overlooking the Indian Ocean. The room was very spacious and extremely comfortable with a jacuzzi bath in the corner of the room and a separate shower room and toilet. The owners were away when we stayed but we were looked after by Eileen and Frank who couldn't do enough for the... More
