Verified reviewexcellent

We stay in 300A -- unit well lay out and comfortable. Restaurant food & services also top quality. We enjoy the stay although it was too short (only one night), need to stay longer next time. May be just a suggestion.... we arrive late afternoon, after 17h00, not knowing that all the shops in Witsand will already be close by then.... if there was some coffee, sugar etc. supply in the unit that would have help for late night tea and early morning coffee...... as I said just a suggestion, but we will make sure we bring our own or plan arrival time better next time. Thanks for a great stay and service.
