59 guests' feedbackConvenient, comfortable, clean, peaceful.
We had a very nice stay.
Delicious breakfast. Great variety and thanks for the almond milk.
Meeting and dealing with Tercia was an absolute pleasure. She welcomed us with open arms and we felt at home immediately. The breakfast was superb.
Pleasant, helpful staff. Clean and the bed was comfortable.
Friendly and inviting host and team. Felt at home and comfortable. Clean and fresh. Close to the sea with sea views. Amazing breakfast options and layout was neat and plentiful. Definitely value for money with great service.
Very clean and friendly staff, very comfortable beds and room.
We were kindly received and had a terrific time there. My wife and I have dietary restrictions and they fully accommodated us. The morning meals were served by a very friendly waiter.
We were greeted by Mimi on arrival and shown to our room. She explained where we could dine that evening - super friendly and helpful!
It was very, very nice to stay there for the weekend. We really enjoyed it and the staff is very friendly. I don't want to talk about their breakfast, then I want to say a big thank you to Mimi, she was very kind.
We had a very nice stay. Breakfast was delicious. Very friendly service. Will visit again.
The accommodation at Mermaid Guest House is situated in a very good location, very close to shops, restaurants and the sea. The facilities were good, the only problem was that we were affected by load shedding, otherwise everything was very convenient.
We had a lovely rest.
The stay was excellent.
Yes, we had a great time. Friendly staff. Breakfast was delicious. Rooms are well equipped and very tidy.
Close to shops and restaurants and beach — even saw whales from my bedroom window!
The breakfast offers a great variety and is really nice and fresh. The rooms are very neat and clean and in general the service is very good. Thank you very much for a wonderful visit.
The breakfast was highly recommended. The people were very nice and helpful.
Staff are friendly and helpful, breakfast was excellent. Room was as desired, stairs are a bit steep, this was not a problem, it gives you the feeling that you are staying on a boat, which is unique to the guest house. Loved the snacks that were available for purchase in the room (brilliant idea). We enjoyed our stay.
The stay met our expectations.
The accommodation was good with a breakfast that surprised me. Bathroom facilities were clean and tidy. Wish they could offer another TV package.
They should inform people on booking about the ridiculously steep staircase to the bedrooms upstairs. We would not have booked if we knew. Unsafe for people and worse with luggage.
We were well received, the ladies at the guest house were friendly and very helpful. The guest house is very neat and we would advise people to stay there. The breakfast exceeded our expectations.
Basic facilities, but very clean and basic. Delicious breakfast and friendly people.
Top notch breakfast with friendly and helpful staff. great location
I enjoyed my stay. Everything I needed for my short stay was there.
Would be even better if there was a sea view, but otherwise facilities and hospitality are top notch.
Pleasant stay, fairly basic, not luxurious. Had everything we needed.
Very dangerous style stairs were the first thing that greeted us. No assistance was offered to help us get our luggage up the same stairs. In general, the guest house is run down and needs quality renovation. The deck is truly awful, I can't imagine any guest would want to sit and hang out there. Although the bar and lounge area looks nice in the photos on the ad, it was locked and therefore we could not use it. The living room upstairs looks like a children's playroom with messy and mismatched furniture.
Thank you, it made our stay in Struisbaai very pleasant.
Our stay at the guest house was wonderful. The service and the facilities are excellent. We will definitely book there again if we come to Struisbaai.
Extremely friendly, very clean, excellent recommendations for local activities and eateries. Would definitely recommend.
Nice rooms with all expected mod-cons. Tertia is extremely helpful and accommodating and the breakfast must be one of the best I've had anywhere. The staircase could be a bit challenging for older people as the steps are very narrow.
See stars.
Just like the first visit, it was just an absolute pleasure to stay here. Will always come back again when we work in that area.
Very nice stay, breakfast was 5 star.
We received a very warm welcome to the Mermaid Guest House and were helped out very smoothly for a very good place to eat our dinner in L'Agulhas. We will come back.
Friendly people and a clean guesthouse is a winning recipe. The breakfast choices are fantastic, always fresh and perfect. Our room number 7 was a bit small for a week's stay, but we will definitely look at Mermaid again when we go to Struisbaai.
Enjoyed our stay, would recommend a stay at Mermaid Guesthouse to anyone. The food is lovely and the staff friendly and helpful.
We were kindly received. Family unit did not completely meet our needs because was on the ground floor (so no view). Then moved to first floor rooms (beautiful view). Rooms beautifully neat. Just a pity there is one DStv channel.
Friendly, helpful staff. Very nice breakfast.
We were 4 people who slept there for one night, we all share the same opinion: we will come back anytime and recommend the place to others. It's neat, the people are friendly, helpful and professional. We had a great time there and are sorry to leave. Thank you very much.
Wonderful place, very friendly welcome - immediately felt at home.
Nice and clean.
We had a great stay, breakfast was delicious, als was very neat and cool! Will visit again.
Management and staff go out of their way to make your stay comfortable and breakfast is exceptional.
The hostess is very helpful! She is happy to give advice and information about the area and attractions. The rooms are well equipped and very clean. The guest house is centrally located and within walking distance of shops and the sea.
It was a top notch experience.
Excellent and most friendly service. Don't think the breakfast will be beat. Really good value for money. Will definitely stay there again!
Very neat and clean. The owners were very friendly and made us feel very welcome. Breakfast was outstanding!
We had an amazing stay at the Mermaid. The homely atmosphere was a breath of fresh air after a long drive. Many thanks to Christine and her staff who went out of their way to make sure we were comfortable, and that both my boy's - who are in wheelchairs - had access to where they needed to go. It will always be our first choice to stay when we venture down to this part of the world again!
My wife and I had a great time. We were able to have a nice warm visit in the intimate pub and the breakfast was on time and tasty. Thank you for the friendly interest.
Good value, very clean, very safe.
Accommodation was spacious. Breakfast was great. Pleasant atmosphere.
Rooms are spacious, clean and well equipped. Meals are great. We shall visit them again. Parking is off the road, but not fenced-in.
Excellent value for money, and wonderful service.
Upon arriving, we were greeted by our hostess with friendliness. She was particularly helpful with local attractions to visit. Supper and breakfast were great. The accommodation itself was very comfortable.
Very friendly and nice people - food was very good!
