除了完美，不知該怎麼説，房主是70多歲的一對年邁父母，彬彬有禮，相談甚歡。在約堡之前生活了十幾年，02年裝修了這片莊園，十分美麗，安靜舒服，Umhlanga。

I had a wonderful stay at Anchors Rest late last month. It is clean, roomy with an excellent breakfast. I met the owners and their wonderful staff member, all of whom were welcoming. It features only six guest rooms, but is roomy and even has a pool. It was only a five minute walk to restaurants, and a few more to the beach. It is a great example of the uniqueness of bed and breakfast versus a conventional hotel. I will gladly return.

What a delightful, cosy retreat in the heart of Umhlanga! Attractive, well equipped rooms, overlooking a pretty garden and inviting pool. Delicious breakfast and very friendly and helpful staff. On a quiet street, yet only a few minutes' walk to the beach, shops and restaurants. Highly recommend this true gem!

I had a great stay at Anchor Guesthouse! The check-in was quick, efficient, and friendly. The room was clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with good soundproofing. The breakfast was really good! Thank you for the warm welcome and kindness. The location is also great — close to shops, a supermarket, and nice spots for a walk. I definitely recommend this place!

Our stay was wonderful! The room was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed to feel comfortable. The hosts were kind and welcoming, always making sure we felt at home. One of the highlights was the amazing breakfasts — they were fresh, delicious, and such a perfect way to start the day. The thoughtful touches and attention to detail really made our stay special. We’d happily return and recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.
