Stayed at the Southern Cross twice during my holiday in South Africa. It's probably one of the most beautiful and most carefully looked after places in the whole area. Patricia (the owner) is super friendly and the rooms are BEAUTIFUL! You get a sea view from the shower. The breakfast is excellent and served at your convenience. Coffee all day.... More
