14 guests' feedbackIt was refreshing and lovely.
Everything was in place and very tidy. Owners very friendly and helpful. Would stay there again anytime and can highly recommend the guest house.
Everything was in place and very neat and friendly people! No complaints, they are great!
Very friendly and attending to matters immediately. Owner always involved.
We enjoyed the modern, spacious and spotlessly clean room. The hosts Bennie and Charlot are very friendly and helpful. They serve a lovely breakfast with a smile every morning. All the staff are also friendly and efficient. We certainly do recommend this guesthouse to all future travellers.
Bennie was ongelooflik vriendelik, behulpsaam en super gasvry. Die gastehuis verdien 10 uit 10 sterre. Baie luuks, super skoon en 'n fantastiese ligging. Die SeaBreeze gastehuis sal ons beslis weer sien. Ons het so welkom gevoel in Swakopmund. Vandat jy daar aankom tot jy vertrek word jy op die hande gedra. Baie dankie, Bennie. Jy het werklik 'n ongelooflike plek.
We spent two days at SeaBreeze. Wish we could stay longer. Bennie and Charlot received us warmly and informed us well about everything we can experience in Swakopmund. The apartment was great, exactly as we agreed beforehand. Breakfast was excellent and just a nice time to chat with the hosts about their beautiful Namibia. Fantastic service and hospitality. Thank you very much.
The guest house is exceptionally clean, with very high standard of facilities and great attention to detail. The owners, Bennie and Charlotte were particularly friendly and helpful. I would spend the night there again anytime, and can highly recommend the guest house.
Very friendly and very neat and clean. Delicious breakfast! Best Guest House in Swakopmund will definitely stay there again. Thank you very much.
SeaBreeze is a beautiful, well-located guest house that meets all your expectations and more. The owners are real people who make you feel right at home! A must for a lovely visit in Swakopmund!
Very good experience. Friendly, supportive, clean, beautiful, functional, comfortable and good and tasty breakfast.
Cleanest place with friendliest staff in all of Namibia.
If it was only about the people, and the luxuries and facilities were a side issue, I would just want to stay there, always. The fine details that have been used to provide facilities to make guests' stay as pleasant as possible are really well thought out. It's luxurious, but homely; modern but laid out with feeling and taste. I can recommend any traveler to stay there. I was treated like family, and would love to make this my address.
We were received very kindly. The room was excellent with comfort and convenience at hand. The breakfasts were delicious and tasty served. Benny was very helpful with information about the area. Would have liked to stay longer. Ona was a real hostess and went out of her way to receive us kindly, even though we arrived too early.
