We loved our short stay at Aqua Marina. The owners were friendly and checked in with us every day to make sure we had what we needed. Rooms are comfortable and well-stocked; information and resources are well organized (we appreciated all the dinner recommendations in their info book). The daily breakfast on the patio was a highlight for us - what a view!

Michal and Lizette were so lovely, accomodating and kind. We wish we’d stayed longer in this beautiful place run by such nice people. Had one of the best night’s sleep of my life in the super comfortable beds and the breakfast omelette was to die for.

Fantastic Hotel-I highly recommend it to anyone 😀

I loved my stay at Aqua Hotel. My room was beautiful with fantastic views across the ocean. I loved the decor of the kitchen and dining room as well as the balcony area. I took lots of photos to show my friends and family. The breakfast was absolutely delicious as well. The staff were lovely and the owner was very friendly and made us feel very welcome indeed. I can not recommend this hotel highly enough.

We stayed one night on our travels along the Graden Route. Host Michal was super helpful with organizing check in and the making recommendations for sights and dining options in the area. He was gracious, friendly and so welcoming (and his amazing photographs adorn the walls!) The suite we had was on the lower floor (nicely decorated, not super roomy but well-appointed with a very good bed and linens) so we did not have a patio/balcony but there was a nice area upstairs in the main room with a beautiful deck offering great views of the sea! This is where breakfast was served...which was included and homemade and delicious! We did walk to dinner (a bit hilly but not terrible) which is always a desirable option for us. Overall, a really great place to overnight in Mossel Bay. We wished we could've stayed longer.

6/10 Okay

The room was tiny. Thankfully all we bought in was an overnight bag because there wouldn't have been room for our suitcases. Things were tired and not particularly clean. The balcony had a beautiful sea view but wasn't private.

Wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im Aqua Marina Guesthouse! Die Lage ist super ruhig, die Zimmer sind geräumig und sauber und das beste ist der herrliche Ausblick auf Mossel Bay vom Balkon aus! Das Frühstücksangebot ist reichhaltig und das Omelette wirklich ein Traum! Wir kommen gerne wieder :-)

Muito Bom!!

Tive uma experiência incrível na guest house! Desde o momento da chegada, fui recebida com um atendimento acolhedor. O ambiente é muito charmoso e tranquilo, ideal para relaxar. O quarto estava limpo, confortável e bem decorado, além de ser muito silencioso durante a noite. A localização também é boa, perto de bons restaurantes, mas em uma rua tranquila. Com certeza, recomendo a todos que buscam uma hospedagem aconchegante e com atendimento de qualidade.
