About 138 Marine Beachfront Guesthouse

138 Marine Beachfront Guesthouse is a stylish retreat from the bustle of city living, and is perched right on the shores of the Atlantic Ocean, with a sprawling deck next to the beach.

Guests can soak up the sun on the spacious terrace, drinking in the views of the mountains and the sea, or can catch up on a good book on the deck, while sipping on some of the delicious estate wine. The fireplace inside is perfect for cooler evenings and guests that want to cosy up in front of the crackling logs.

Walks on the beach are a must, as are strolls along the coastal path, which showcases the fauna and flora of the rock pools, as well as the stunning fynbos skirting the guesthouse.

Accommodation

No attention to detail has been spared in the superbly stylish décor. The five luxurious designer suites are individually fitted with all modern comforts, meeting international standards: king or queen-sized beds decked in 400-thread count Percale linen, underfloor heating, heated towel rails, satellite TV, wireless internet access, complimentary tea & coffee making facilities, electronic safes, and overhead fans.

Facilities

The extensive breakfast menu changes daily. On request, a picnic can be provided to enjoy on the beach in front of the guest house, and on-site wellness therapies can be arranged.

During loadshedding meals will still be served and Wi-Fi will remain on. Kettles in the room will not work in loadshedding by boiling water form our gas stove can be provided. The underfloor heating will not work but extra blankets and hot water bottles are available.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.

Amazing location on the sea edge, superbly appointed Accomodation and wonderful professional staff. The views are breathtaking and the guest house is well maintained and efficiently managed. The breakfast is tasty and well presented from continental to a hot option which was excellent. Security is very good and access is easy to navigate. We would totally recommend this establishment and commend their staff for wonderful service delivery!
