The restaurant service was shocking, the management absent, the starter was a ripoff, 4 mussels on a big plate with lots of empty shells to create the idea that it was more. The main meal was average, definitely not worth the R2000 spend for 3 people.

We stay for two nights in the beautiful Brenton Haven Beachfront hotel, with the most beautiful sea view, and sunsets over the ocean. What a privilege to stay in this resort. The sea-view suite has everything you need, was actually so surprise how big this suite is. The in-suite bathroom is very modern, with crisp white towels, and toiletries. The kitchen has everything you need for self-catering. From reception, to the restaurant staff go out of their way to make your stay special. We had dinner at the restaurant, our meat and fish was cooked to perfection, and vegetables were delicious. Compliments to the chef. Thank you very much to everyone, we will definitely visit you again. Keep up the excellent service. Brenton Haven Beachfront hotel will continue to achieve great success.

this is a fantastic choice for someone who wants to stay directly in front of the indian ocean and of a fantastic and huge beach. The view is breathtaking Staff very friendly, the cottages are very nice and with a lot of space, the majority with ocean view, may be the furniture a little bit old

The "room" was excellent. Great views. The outside braai and stoep was awesome. One thing I really missed was the pizzas at the Butterfly Blue restaurant. This restaurant was famous for their pizzas and to our amazement, they no longer served pizzas. Why? I strongly suggest a return of the best pizzas in the country.
