The guest house was great, very quiet, located in beautiful, safe area. I can recommend it to anyone anytime. But small small feedback. Please consider having someone around who can answer questions when guests are around.

We had never been to Kidd's Beach before and we absolutely loved our stay here, wish we had stayed longer. Quiet, peaceful and beautifully decorated. 3 minute walk to the beach was a bonus. Bed and pillows were super comfy. John was a great host - as we were the only ones staying the night, he gave us an upgraded room. We will definitely be back and I have recommended The Coelacanth Guesthouse to friends and family! Best part of the stay was having Marilyn and Nutmeg make us feel so welcome - it was like being at home! We will definitely be back for a longer stay....

The Guest House was very responsive from booking time to the time of my stay. It is a relaxed place that feels like home. It is clean and provides everything you need as a traveller. I was disappointed though for not having breakfast - they should update their information on booking sites. I also could not figure out how the TV worked but I arrived quite late at night to wake people.

John made us feel welcome and do not hesitate to help where he could. We enjoy the balcony. To listen to the ocean was so calming. Everything was clean and in good working condition . Nutmeg the cat was a extra bonus.

Our host was extremely welcoming, friendly and went out of her way to ensure that all our needs were met. Rooms were very spacious, spotless and tastefully furnished. Only a block away from the sea and close to a stunning beach.
