This is a large modern guest house tastefully designed to resemble the deck of a ship and overlooking the beach. It is about 40 minutes by foot along the beach from the centre of town, 10 minutes by car.

Returned to Periwinkle after a gap of 6 years and were pleased with the upgraded facilities. New infinity pool, new furnishings and decor and improved bathrooms. I had a massage but did not use the fitness room. The Staff were just as welcoming and efficient and we look forward to returning soon.

We've sadly just left periwinkle to carry on the rest of our travels but we had to review it to say how much we loved this place. Sensational views, warm people, beautiful spacious rooms. We can't fault it, we always stay in pretty nice accommodation but this place we really felt was next level. When you arrive you really feel... More

This is definately one of my favourite places...homely, very clean, ideal location and spledid staff. Svena and Selby were very helpful, professional and always had a smile. I enjoyed the afternoon tea and evening wine:-) . Breakfast was scrumptious. The pool area is small but totally cool. We will definately be visiting again...and for longer.

But obviously the odd guest finds a way. We had a top floor room and it was not huge, but we had the most extraordinary view across the bay and slept to roar of the waves crashing on the beach, absolutely fabulous. The team were really helpful, which one comes to expect in South Africa, but even so it takes... More

My room was on the... More
