The property is located in a very quiet area. The hospitality was excellent and the property just gives you peace of mind regarding safety.
Nothing.

The garden is beautiful and the staff are very attentive and friendly. Rooms are very spacious with lovely amenities.
It is very loud around the hotel, you can hear other guests very easily and is quite disruptive.

It was eventually served
It took ages - served one person at a time, other had to wait to get food. Cold beans on side.

Large Suite, albeit not well designed in some areas (tiny toilet).
1). During our first night's stay, our car, parked within the property's security compound, was broken into. Glass window smashed & personal items taken. Two other cars in the compound were similarly broken into, suffering smashed glass windows too. The Accommodation Mgr, Inge, was helpful in dealing with the aftermath. However, she became very defensive when I suggested the property should be responsible for paying for the damage to the car, given it was in the building's apparently secure compound. Future emailing on this touchy subject yielded NO response from the property.
2). The property, while possessing a standby generator, was very reluctant to use it during rostered electricity power cuts. At times we were the only occupants in the building (which had no staff in the building overnight). We were given a variety of reasons why it (the standby generator) could not be turned on during some power cuts. Result was a miserable & un-necessary blackout in our accommodation! Very frustrating.
3). Associated in the building was an electrical vault, situated under the roof. After power cuts, many electrical resets had to be made. However, the access to this fault had to be made through our Suite! This happened many times, completely destroying our privacy.
4). While the Accommodation Mgr was generally helpful otherwise, the rest of the staff appeared surly & not friendly. Again a disappointment , given how much money we were paying for the accommodation.
5). As if the foregoing was not enough, a dog, in the staff/owners building nearby, created loud barking, upsetting the tranquility!

Lovely big room with excellent views. Friendly hosts and smiley staff.
Not that it really bothered us but it was slightly off the beaten track along unmade roads. Saying that we went out and about with no problem.

The setting is lovely
Hosts were unfriendly and unaccommadating. Also wanted to charge us international rates for 1 extra night after we had stayed there for 20 days. Would not recommend Wind-Rose

The place was very peaceful, clean, spacious, lots of privacy. It's a home away from home. Bathroom is spacious & very clean. I recommend this place for a real getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

We had such a wonderful time at Wind-Rose! The hosts welcomed us very warmly and were super helpful. The room was neat, bright, and cosy. I loved the decor, and we highly enjoyed the pool as well as the gym! Serene and peaceful guesthouse with stunning mountain views. A very short drive to Gordon's bay. We are definitely coming back. Highly recommended!

We loved the warm welcome and helpfulness, the concern about the breakfast the next morning, and the advice about places to have dinner. She also proffered to help if we needed her during the night.
Altogether - wonderful.
