Great place to stop and relax. Lovely stay. Great place to stop during travel to or from the beach. The place looks like the fixtures were a bit cheap and roughly installed, but the place is clean, the aircon works well, the property is prettier than expected, and the service is very friendly and accommodating.

Everything we needed for a stop over. Made a booking at very short notice and arrived late. Vuyo was very helpful and accommodating. It would be nice if the room had a larger counter for tea/coffee making and a supply of basic cutlery/plates. We love that Sondela is pet friendly.

Same as above. No WiFi. Receptionist was reluctant to let us stay. Noise from the upstairs room. Lack of sleep.

Restful. It was a very peaceful overnight stay. With very helpful owners.

Rustig. Baie rustige oornagplekkie gewees. Met baie behulpsame eienaars.

Nice rooms. The owner did not know about our reservation. Luckily I kept my bookings and emails. Owner was friendly and had rooms available for us but not the units that were booked. Many thanks for the owner's help and kindness. Would recommend Sondela.

Mooi kamers. Die eienaar het nie van ons bespreking geweet nie. Gelukkig het ek my besprekings en e-posse gehou. Eienaar was vriendelik en het vir ons kamers beskikbaar gehad maar nie die eenhede wat bespreek was nie. Baie dankie vir die eienaar se hulp en vriendelikheid. Sal Sondela aanbeveel.

Accommodation at Sondela is sufficient. Sandra really put a lot of effort into my accommodation at Sondela. The accommodation is adequate and the people are friendly. Reservations are made at places to eat for the evening. Sondela's owner goes the extra mile to make you feel welcome.

Verblyf by Sondela is voldoende. Sandra het regtig baie moeite met my akkommodasie by Sondela gedoen. Die verblyf is voldoende en die mense is vriendelik. Daar word tot besprekings gemaak by eetplekke vir die aand. Sondela se eienaar gaan die ekstra myl om mens welkom te laat voel.

Accommodation is neat and pleasant. Sondela Guest House is conditionally a pleasant and neat place to stay after a long road or for business in town or nearby. I would definitely recommend Sondela, they are friendly and helpful and willing to open the place until late at night.

Verblyf is netjies en genoegsaam. Sondela gastehuis is voorwaardelik 'n aangename en netjiese plek om te oornag na 'n lang pad of vir besigheid in die dorp of nabye omtrek. Ek sal Sondela definitief aanbeveel, hulle is vriendelik en hulpvaardig en bereid om tot in die laat ure van die aand die plek oop te sluit vir mens.

Good. Good for an overnight stay, but not a real self-catering unit.

Goed. Goed vir oorbly, maar nie 'n regte self sorg-eenheid nie.

Very comfortable and hospitable. Their biggest unit has 4 beds but we are a family of 5, they gladly accommodated us with an extra mattress. Also happy to accommodate our pets.
