nachdem wir bereits in 2019 dort für eine Woche in der Suite gelebt haben, sind wir erneut bei unserem Urlaub in 2025 hier eingekehrt...und warum?? Weil es hier einfach schön ist. Wir sind erst das zweite mal hier, fühlten uns aber nicht als fremder Gast sondern eher als Gast bei Freunden. Die Eigentümer sind super nett und hilfsbereit. Ein abwechslungsreiches Frühstück mit individuell erstellten Eierspeisen, ein immer gut gefüllter Kühlschrank, Knabbereien und Süßigkeiten, sodass man sich immer bedienen kann und das Entnommene einfach aufschreibt und am Ende abrechnet. Die Suite ist sehr groß und toll, aber auch die geräumigen "normalen" Zimmer sind ausreichend, geschmackvoll, große Dusche und eine top leise, individuell einstellbare Klimaanlage, die selbst bei Dauerbetrieb nachts überhaupt nicht störend ist

Das Southern Cross ist eine tolle Anlage, die von den herzlichen und zugewandten Gastgebern toll gestaltet wurde. Von dort aus sind sehr viele Ausflugsziele, wie Weingüter, der Strand, Golfplätze, das Cape oder auch Hermanus gut erreichbar. Bei allen Aktivitäten unterstützten uns unsere Gastgeber mit guten Tips und nahmen Reservierungen sowie Buchungen für uns vor.. Wir fühlten uns jederzeit gut aufgehoben und betreut. Die Ausstattung des Hauses soll nicht unerwähnt bleiben. Die große Suite, die Sauberkeit des Hauses das liebevoll gestaltete Frühstück und die Freundlichkeit der Mitarbeiter haben ebenfalls ihren Beitrag zum Gelingen unseres Urlaubes geleistet. Herzlichen Dank dafür.
