356 guests' feedbackHad a nice stay, but. They can just make sure that phone chargers and keys all work before clients come in. If you are out and come to the office late and the key to the outside door does not fit.
Amazingly good best ever.
It was a very nice time.
Yes, very nice stay.
We had a very nice stay.
It was so wonderful to relive my childhood memory by being able to sleep in the train cars. Had a wonderful time with you.
Was superb. They were so hospitable, to the point of being able to change rooms from single to double bed to enjoy cuddling with my husband in this winter season.
Very pleasant. The cabins were clean and the linen smelled fresh. The showers need some upgrading and a bench for clothes. The floors are very slippery, but the water was warm and had good pressure.
Incredibly pleasant. The staff are wonderful and helpful. The train is clean and tidy. There is so much to do in the area, but just sitting on the porch and watching the sea right in front of the train was just "awesome". The restaurant's food and atmosphere are also very pleasant. We just had a great time.
No problems at all. Will definitely come back. A stay with a difference. Everything we wanted we got.
Fantastic place to stay. Excellent service, neat, clean, well equipped. Good location, excellent restaurant and view. I had a great time.
Thank you, staff were always friendly and helpful. Food at the restaurant is worth it and that coffee is fantastic.
The customer service at Santos Express is some of the best we have ever experienced! Fantastic!
Stay was really nice. The only negatives are: noise from the staff inside the train, slamming of doors excessively.
Very nice, clean and a unique experience.
Love it - will return ASAP.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
We really enjoyed our stay.
We had a great stay and the location is fantastic. However, the accommodation is only sufficient for 1 or 2 nights.
Was fantastic. Would love to experience it again and definitely recommend to friends and family. Service and food were excellent.
We had a wonderful stay. Santos Express is a unique and very cool accommodation option. We would do it again and recommend to family and friends. The Royal B compartment is very spacious, especially with the full bathroom, and the lovely private deck overlooking the sea gives rest to the soul!
We absolutely enjoyed our stay. There was a very warm reception when we arrived by Kim. What a gem of a lady. She explained where our accommodation was, where we would have breakfast and assisted with loads of questions. Our carriage was beautiful and very clean. Loved our little deck and closeness to the beach. The restaurant food was superb.
What a peaceful atmosphere, by the sea.
We will definitely stay here again.
Very nice stay. Nice view.
It was wonderful and we will come again. Will also recommend this accommodation to our family and friends. You guys were great!
It was only for an overnight stay, but it was a nice experience. I would like to stay longer next time if I have more time.
We really enjoyed our stay. We sat outside in the afternoon and fell asleep to the sound of the waves.
I had a very nice stay. Very quiet and a nice view!
It was a wonderful experience.
I happily recommend this experience. I really enjoyed it. The staff were very helpful and the atmosphere calm and cozy. I will definitely visit again.
A wonderful overnight stay at a very nice destination.
It's always nice to stay there.
Absolute 5-star accommodation, especially the food at the restaurant was delicious and value for money.
Unique accommodation in the train. Beautiful view of Mossel Bay's beach! Delicious breakfast.
We had a fantastic week on the Santos Express. The service, hospitality and the food were top class. Santos Express is one of our favourite holiday destinations.
See stars.
Very nice stay, thank you.
The accommodation and especially the location was absolutely perfect.
Very nice stay! Will stay here again.
This was a pleasant overnighter for me. Waking up to the fresh sea air and listening to the waves crashing on the beach was the best for a peaceful sleep. Breakfast was a surprise and wonderful.
Pleasant. The room wasn't cleaned while we were there, but it wasn't a problem and they quickly replenished the tea and coffee when asked. The staff are super friendly.
Enjoyed the experience, as I never knew about this place until my friend told me about it.
Would stay there again anytime. Big plus the breakfast.
Thank you very much. No problems encountered.
It was so pleasant. It was the most beautiful view and so close to the sea. Enjoyed it a lot. The train is as original as if the train is still running. The eating and drinking place right by the train. Secure parking also right in front of the train with security guards. Can't wait to stay there again.
Stay was fantastic except that someone definitely smoked in the room. The shower could use a deep clean as well. WiFi was not really working.
Stayed very calm. Thank you very much for the hospitality offered.
Very pleasant. Just need some seating in the dry area of the shower. Thank you so much. Staff were very helpful.
It was a nice experience to be able to sleep on the train. Bathrooms could use some renovation. It's not really a place to put your stuff, and our sink in the cabin had no water.
Santos Express is value for money. Close to everything and opposite the sea. Friendly staff. Would recommend though that they put a mirror somewhere in the shower room for men to shave.
The stay takes you back in time and makes you feel nostalgic. The view of the sea is beautiful. Breakfast was delicious!
Was a bit noisy because a school group that arrived late at night.
Yes, nice. A review of sleeper train travel. Close to the beach and other amenities. Good service with breakfast. Thank you very much.
Very nice stay at Santos. Staff are very friendly and reception was very effective.
Very friendly staff. WiFi does not work so well in sleeping area.
Special space to just relax and enjoy the sound of the sea. Impressed by caring staff! Lovely improvements since my last visit. Breakfast time is a treat.
It was wonderful. Perfect location. Clean beach.
Bathroom could use more hanging space for towels/clothes. Floor is very slippery when wet. Would love to have a sink in the shower.
Our stay was very pleasant. View over the bay is picture perfect. Nice to lie in bed and watch the sun rise. The nostalgia of the old train cars is something special.
Very nice stay in a clean and tidy room which is very unique. The restaurant and beach are nearby.
It is something different than on the train. The accommodation_name is very nice, but I would only recommend it for one night. It's only small.
Pleasant stay. Views were excellent.
We enjoy staying on the train, brings back old memories of the sleeper trains. The food is very nice, with a variety of dishes on the menu. The staff is very friendly.
I slept well for the one night. My friend was in a double bed compartment and she had cockroaches in her room and the mattress was very bad. She had a terrible night and will never come back. I think it was number 41. I was in 42 and had a nice experience.
See stars.
Falling into disrepair. The bathroom with the shower was a bit gross. The silicone pulling away from the corners and the rust gives it an unpleasant atmosphere. I really did not feel comfortable with the cleanliness because of dirty corners in the cabin and broken light fixtures and the smell of urine in cabin 67.
Was nice. People made a lot of noise.
It was very nice. Small but ready for sleep and during the day you are out.
Very nice stay, but think guests should know that there is no power available and no towels either.
Got very very cold. There is no form of heating.
It wasn't our first time. We asked for sea view but the window and blinds did not work. We had to move to another room with only a partial view. We stayed because I had to go to George Hospital for treatment. But our last visit was decidedly less pleasant. The floors were flooded and soaking wet. I suggest you put a permanent mop in the shower, because it is very unpleasant if there is no drying cloth to put on.
Being able to stay on the train was an experience for the children. It is definitely value for money when you consider that a continental breakfast is included. The accommodation is neat and clean, and the service excellent! I would recommend that if you are traveling with teenagers, to book two compartments instead. Space is tight, but we just slept there and traveled around during the day, so it wasn't a problem!
Staff are very friendly and helpful. Everyone made it pleasant for us and the restaurant/bar closed later on Friday night so we could watch rugby.
Wonderfull experiance.
Would love to visit there again and will definitely go there again when the opportunity presents itself.
One could not ask for a better relaxed accommodation. The waves that break here with you. Rest for the soul. To sit on the deck and enjoy a glass while watching the boats.
Thank you to the staff for going the extra mile. I would stay there again in the future.
Reasonably priced accommodation where all you hear is waves.
Thank you very much, als was perfect. The braai facilities were just not quite up to standard. Otherwise 10 out of 10.
This is one of the places to sleep where the view is perfect. It's a great experience and value for money.
The room is more beautiful than some hotel rooms I've slept in. The sea is a stone through away with a deck to relax and have a braai if desired. The room rate includes a filling English breakfast.
I have told all my friends and family about this unique place to stay when visiting Mossel Bay. It brought back so many memories of me when we travelled by train when we were young. The staff are friendly and helpful (a special mention to Patricia). We will definitely be going back.
It's basic, but has everything you need to be comfortable - a bed, hot shower, clean toilet and breakfast. Lekker!
This was our 2nd time staying at Santos Express. It was great to see all the old familiar and friendly faces from last time. We were kindly received and because we were a large group, Patsy at reception made a lot of effort to accommodate us all in the same carriage. Watch out, we're coming again. Many thanks to Patsy and the Santos team for all your kindness and hospitality.
Very nice, a pleasure to stay and the town and beach are very nice and clean. Definitely go again.
Great value for money at a very convenient location. Fun to stay in an old train compartment! Right next to the beach, so was lovely to listen to the waves while lying in bed. Good food at the adjacent restaurant. Please note that Wi-Fi is not available in compartments but can access it while in the restaurant.
The restaurant was very affordable, the food was very good, service was very good, the train truck was very good, just needs a curtain, otherwise it was fantastic. Did not use wifi.
I've always wanted to sleep in a train like that to nowhere, with the waves lapping so calmly against the beach. Wake up startled with the same tranquility and beautiful sunrise. Just always read about it but now it was reality. Most delicious ever! We slept there on Thursday night and just made another reservation for Monday night too! If you like luxury this is definitely not for you. It's a hippie vibe! Great service too!
A real adventure. The breakfast was more than I expected.
Location, accommodations, value for money and particularly the staff. A fantastic stay. Thank you.
Lovely breakfast included in the price.
We were missing pillows and extra hand towels upon arrival. Otherwise, everything was smooth.
Fun, unique experience to sleep in an old train. The kids loved it. Real value for money since it includes a light breakfast as well. Our room had stunning views of the ocean.
Affordable and centrally located.
The view of the sea was breathtaking with a school of dolphins swimming by.
For 1 or 2 nights sleep I would recommend it. Nice by the sea and beautiful view.
Was a wonderful experience.
It was a nice experience for us.
Very cute converted and definitely a "must try".
Unfortunately, the mattresses we slept on were very uncomfortable and we hardly slept at all. Other compartments' sleeping facilities may be better, but unfortunately we slept soundly.
Good location, good food and good service. Thank you.
We spent the night in the Royal Suite D. The room was beautiful and clean, as was the small bathroom with shower, toilet and sink. The private wooden deck outside and private and secure parking was a plus.
From arrival to departure was healing for the mind. Thank you Santos Express.
The service was excellent. I feel that attention can only be paid to the train. Very rusty and doesn't smell very good. Musty smell of wetness.
It was a good experience.
The staff was the best ever. Very friendly and very helpful. Meals were good too. Accommodation on the other hand, needs lots of TLC. Could do with maintenance and upgrade. Fortunately, the staff made up to overlook it.
Friendly service, Caboose 3 my favorite room. I just want to keep coming back but most of the time fully booked.
50 m from the beach and apart from being a train to nowhere it was a lovely ride.
Value for money paid. Keep in mind that if you're 1.8m and taller, you won't sleep well. The shower was a bit difficult to master and the panes did not function properly.
Nice stay, a bit tight for big guys, but it was on a train.
Very nice, enjoyed every bit of it. Just needs more seating for people who don't smoke in the restaurant. Showers just need a bit of a deep clean. But otherwise love it, will definitely come again.
You probably can't get closer to the sea. The breakfast was nice.
It's not always a good idea to rent the cheaper rooms. The braai place is just under your window. In our case, the neighbors' visit around the braai place was until after 10 in the evening.
Very good location, good food and friendly staff who go out of their way to help.
Horrible smell in hallway and our compartment. Bathrooms not clean at all. Had no sea view. What a disappointment.
We really enjoyed it and will definitely go again!
Loved our family stay, especially with the kids. The beach was on our doorstep.
A bit tight for 3 people. Would be nice if a separate room could be made available for the 3rd person. The breakfast was a bonus and very tasty. Make it value for money for sure.
It was a wonderful experience. Safe, with security. Nice place to sleep. Nice food. Friendly staff members. Walking distance from the beach. Went for an early swim before breakfast. The best thing was to sit by the train's window and look at the sea until late, and be able to see the lights on the water, hear and smell the sea. Was a great holiday and we will do it again.
Nice relaxation and quiet.
Will return at anytime.
The learners really enjoyed the accommodation. The sea at their bedroom windows was the highlight.
We would recommend it. The royal suite is excellent. The price is bilik. The service is great. We will stay there again.
Would definitely recommend Santos Express.
Our stay took me back to my childhood. Wow. Sleeping on a train again was fantasy. You go to sleep and wake up to the sound of the waves. It brings peace to you, especially breathing in the fresh sea air. The staff received us very friendly. Security is in place. Definitely value for money.
It's so nice because it's something different from the normal and I used to ride the train a lot as a child so I kind of miss it! The compartments are very clean and tidy, people are friendly and breakfast very tasty! It's definitely worth going and at that price no one can argue!
Love the adventure. Such a great place. Would go again.
Enjoyed the stay, will visit again. Perhaps in future consider Wi-Fi in the rooms? Or a TV?
It's very comfortable and located close to the beach.
Perfect location, lovely staff, amazing view!
We booked in the economy accommodation where bathroom is shared. We decided to upgrade to the "Royal Suites". We were pleasantly surprised by the luxury and space. The breakfast was included and was delicious. Thank you very much!
Very nice stay. Accommodation is affordable and close to everything you need. The staff especially the ladies are very friendly. I will definitely come and stay again.
It was our first time in Mossel Bay and our experience at Santos Express was phenomenal. Great service and friendly people.
I enjoyed my stay, I am disabled and every member of staff treated me with compassion and kindness. Delicious food at good prices.
Restaurant best pizza ever and conveniently on site. Service is great.
Nice affordable accommodation by the sea. Only wish the dining room was in the train, also that there was water in Coupé. The windows also need attention.
Friendly staff. Good food by the sea.
Meals were good and price was just as good. The breakfast was off the books. I feel that for a honeymoon suite it should please. be made more soundproof between the caboose. We could hear every word the neighbors spoke and even the snoring etc. in the night. Of course they could also hear us, it's a bit disturbing to know.
All the staff are very friendly and helpful. The train itself gives the feeling of being on a real train. Sometimes the train feels like it's moving, just depends on how the wind catches her.
The service was excellent. We felt welcome from the moment we arrived.
Beautiful location, kiff accommodation. Just need a bit of maintenance (doors, windows) it's old. but nice.
Was very calm. Don't know about vacation time.
It felt like we were vacationing on an island. The restaurant's food is delicious and more than affordable. Only place with best sun bag view and cocktails at value for money price.
Most beautiful view on Santos beach! The bathrooms were more than expected very clean and the staff friendly.
The compartments can do with a kettle and coffee facilities as there is nowhere to have coffee after the restaurant has closed or before it's opened in the morning. That for me is a huge negative.
Location excellent. No noise. Security services great. Against the sea.
Suggestions: I only missed a settee in cabin and would have used only 1 large deck with partitions more than going down stairs and back up to our deck.
Santos is not a place for self-catering, yes for a restaurant they are good. There is no space to do all that, but it's a nice stay, only in the Royal Suite. They don't have wifi in the rooms, which is a turn-off, people want to enjoy wifi while relaxing in their rooms, not only in the restaurant. They must just upgrade the standard of single rooms because the people couldn't stay in their rooms because of dirtiness and the blankets are like wow, for prisoners. But I understand that it is a train, but the bedding must at least be upgraded.
Secure however the bathroom could have been cleaner. I was in a cabin next to the bathroom and the smell came through into our cabin. Also when walking outside the cabin their was a strong urine smell.
Very nice view but it doesn't help much if the sea water is dirty due to the harbor just next to it and so the children couldn't swim. Bathroom (toilet) smells incredibly bad in the carriage (Royal Suite B) in which we stayed. Secure gated parking only if you sleep in the Royal Suites. And the bed is quite hard. Furthermore, we really enjoyed it.
The reception service was outwardly unpleasant. I suggest they work on their friendliness and manners. The accommodation itself was lovely. The train itself was not well looked after, certain parts of the train were not maintained.
On arrival, the room we booked had been given to someone else. We had to downgrade for one night and move to the other room the next morning. The new room was not the right room either, we booked a sea view but had to face the street which was described as a mountain view. There were ants, we had to hang a towel in front of the one window that didn't have a screen in front. The worst was that we had no hot water for 2 days. No young man, it was a disaster!
Booked the Royal Suite but unfortunately someone made a mistake with our booking and we were no longer able to get the Royal Suite. Had to stay in honeymoon caboose then. It was just so delicious. Even though we were disappointed about mix up with the Royal Suite, we had a very pleasant time. Santos is a nice experience.
Wonderful experience to be able to sleep in a train and hear the ocean's waves all night just outside the vesters. Next morning's breakfast was out of the books! Unique experience and highly recommended.
Unforgettable and unique experience.
The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. Great service. Rooms are neat. One looks out at the sea. Weather was miserable, but what an experience to witness the lightning on the sea.
This is probably one of the overnight facilities with the most beautiful view in the country and that with the old-world experience of a train compartment. Absolutely recommend. The restaurant that forms part of the facility's seafood is to die for.
When I first saw the description I thought ok this might be interesting. When we got there it was a wonderful surprise. We got to our cabin and it has lots of room, the bed was probably the best nights sleep I have had in some time. It was quiet and I could hear the waves at night. Outside we had our own private patio overlooking the beach. We went to dinner there and the food and staff were both impressive. My waitress was friendly and very welcoming. She was like an old friend. Breakfast the next morning was just as good. I would highly recommend staying here and I am going to try to rebook when I return.
A unique experience - enjoyed it.
Very friendly people. Everything is clean and tidy.
We booked a compartment with twin beds and a shared bathroom, but upon our arrival the friendly receptionist gave us a choice to keep our reservation or we could upgrade to the Royal Suite with its own bathroom and balcony. Especially with Covid in mind. And it was a very pleasant experience. Much better than we could ever dream. It was romantic, neat, private with a breathtaking view. Thank you very much for an unforgettable evening and a fantastic breakfast. We will definitely use your services again, because such a paradise experience does not always come. Thank you very much for your friendly service, keep it up! May God richly bless you and may your business only go from strength to strength. Thousands of thanks.
The service was excellent and the cleanliness of the facilities on the train was very good. The staff were also very friendly and helpful at all times.
We had such a good time. Closer to the sea is not possible. The staff is very helpful and friendly. Our stay was definitely above expectations. Everyone should come and experience it. You will not regret it.
It is an exceptional experience to stay overnight at the Santos Express. The staff go out of their way to make the experience as enjoyable and special as possible.
Loved showing my young son what I grew up with.
Old nostalgia of a sleeper train without the movement. Fantastic view of the ocean. We stayed in a small compartment and it was awesome for overnight. If you expect luxury, skip or choose an upgrade.
Accommodation excellent in Royal Suite. Really a nice experience and restaurant is within walking distance. Sea view is brilliant. Would recommend it to any person.
The Royal suite was truly an experience. Staff is so nice. Very neat.
Good location. Nice experience. Walls were a little thin, with chatty neighbors, but hearing the ocean while falling asleep and waking up to the ocean again was lovely!
I can imagine that this place can be very busy and going when the world isn't dealing with a pandemic. The rooms are very neat and the beds sleep wonderfully. The staff are also very friendly and helpful, and the restaurant's food is great.
We really enjoyed our stay, especially the walks on the beach and the location of the train.
The windows just need some Q20 to open and close more easily, I used some sanitizer and it worked perfectly. Maybe towels too. Maybe put something in the shared shower to dry the floor after showering.
Something different and we enjoyed it.
Feel free to stay there. Friendly staff. Delicious breakfast also enjoyed there every morning.
Great place for a quick stay-over in Mossel Bay; nothing fancy, but your compartment is clean and safe. Shower and bathroom also clean. Location is great - right next to beach - one falls asleep listening to waves breaking on the shore. If you like something quirky (like sleeping on a train - who gets to do that anymore?!) then check it out!
You are just now falling asleep with the sea in your ears and unfortunately the train does not want to rock. Delicious breakfast. We would definitely recommend the stay.
Excellent location and exceptional view of the beach.
Once again, like 2 years ago, we had noisy guests in our carriage. They came in drunk and noisy at 3:00 in the morning (curfew). We had to ask them 2 times to speak more softly and respect our sleeping time. Our daughters had also been in a nearby carriage and not with us. Otherwise we really enjoyed it.
Awesome! It reminds one of childhood when we traveled to holiday destination by train. The sleeper train as we called it.
Peaceful and safe accommodation and cost effective. Friendly service.
Plus - Very nice view and location, comfortable, informal restaurant for light meals, burgers etc. Minus - Only one chair in Royal cabin - would benefit from an extra chair and small table. The cabin's private veranda can only be reached by walking outside around the cabin and would also benefit from a sun or wind screen.
The hot breakfast was very nice.
Very good view to the sea.
Wife and I enjoy it. I like the breakfast, it was nice.
Think a good do over and fixing of old elements are needed.
There was dust all over the window frames. Broken window shutters. And then also an unpleasant smell from the bathroom. We really will not stay there again.
We were 25 minutes early but had to wait until 14h00 to get keys. Then we got 2 cabins from each other in separate train cars. I then asked for 2 next to each other, because I cannot leave minor children alone. Then they said it's full, there aren't 2 next to each other. Then I said then we will have to find other accommodation, then suddenly there were 2 open next to each other. These cabins have an unpleasant smell, the floors and bedding are dirty. The rasta family who stayed next to us didn't come in until 11pm. They made a lot of noise, smoked and drank until 1am. It was quiet from 01h00 to 03h00, then a beach party started and it was noisy until 05h00. The security gates were open. I went to close it a few times. Needless to say, we couldn't wait for 05h00 to drive. We didn't sleep at all. Somewhat of a 'unique' experience I was looking forward to, I never want to do again. I suggest website remove Santos Express from their website, because you will not sleep well for sure. It was a bad experience. At 23:00 at night we started to Google for other accommodation, but with the 24:00 'curfew' we couldn't find a place anywhere that late. Most places' 'check-in' time is only until 22h00 in the evening. I almost fell asleep in my car.
It was a wonderful experience. Quiet and peaceful, with the roar of the sea.
Drinks are affordable. Bingo night was exciting. Staff is friendly. Especially office staff.
Very friendly and helpful reception and staff. Restaurant and bar on the beach. Train cars on the beach with lovely beds. Obviously the best view of white beach and blue water. Harbor light at night. It was our 2nd visit there and certainly not the last. Thank you, we had a great time.
Nice price, nice atmosphere, nice location, all you need for a quick stay.
Was nice with a view right on the sea.
The staff is friendly and the food very tasty.
Would definitely go back, would have liked to stay longer.
You can just kick off your shoes in the back and relax. It is a pleasure to stay there every time. Staff are always helpful with any questions or requests. We always just want to stay longer.
As I mentioned above, it was a nice experience but was a bit small. Not that I wouldn't recommend it, but we'll look for a little bigger place next time. For example, a small kitchenette with a bar fridge or something. But we have no complaints about Santos Express at all. Had a wonderful breakfast, the location is fantastic, and will definitely use the restaurant again when we get there.
It's on the beach and the view is amazing. A restaurant and bar next to the train.
Only stayed one night but would definitely go again. Value for money and the train sleep was off the books. Will definitely stay there again.
Excellent and friendly service. Nothing was too much trouble. What an amazing experience. Everyone really should do this ─ spend the night on the train.
My overnight stay at the Santos Express was well enjoyed. The venue is located on the beachfront and the rooms are clean and well maintained - taking into consideration it's an old train. The reception is friendly and the workers go out their way to make your stay as comfortable as possible. The rooms are small and intimate which suites a solo traveller. The venue is also relatively close to the mall and other shops. Santos Express is recommendable to all solo travellers.
Would recommend for a group of people.
Reception was friendly, but think the advertisement for the accommodation is misleading. Rooms were clean but a damp smell filled the room, was under the impression there was a double bed as we indicated there were two couples staying there, and could someone advise us to prefer double facilities. Toilets and showers had to be shared with other guests, which were not clearly indicated as such. There was a sink in the room and with tremendous effort on the taps water came out, but there was no plug either. No glasses in room to drink water at night.
Nostalgic, takes one back to your younger days of train riding and sleeping over in compartments. Location right on the beach is perfect.
Beautiful view, helpful and friendly staff. Nice cabin, definitely an experience for kids - our boy was very excited. Value for money!
See stars.
Nostalgic and special. Highly recommended.
We had a warm welcome and the staff helped us with whatever we needed. Will definitely book there again.
We were treated very well.
The main entrance door from number 3 is very loud so it's very disturbing. The cleaners are also noisy early in the morning in corridors and as they set up the bunk beds in other rooms. Furthermore, it was amazing and will definitely stay there again.
Wonderful place and people!
Will definitely go back. Staff are friendly. Neat accommodation and toilets. Ten out of ten for Santos Express.
Wonderful experience with clean rooms and beautiful view and ambient sounds that make you completely forget about the noise of the city.
Basic accommodation that is well located. Everything was clean and the reception friendly and helpful. Restaurant and pub is a bonus! Something different from the norm and definitely worth a visit!
Definitely worth it. Experience.
Like a train ride from the old days with the most beautiful sea views. Excellent restaurant. Friendly staff. Neat and clean.
Hilarious. Quiet small. Perfect for one or two nights.
We had a very nice stay, except for the group of people who shared the wagon with us. They barbecued until late at night and were very drunk and then the group started swearing at each other and calling each other bad names until after 1 in the morning. My little girl was terrified and wouldn't leave our room to go to the bathroom. Otherwise it was pleasant.
It's clean and neat and prices are reasonable. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Looking for something different from the usual overnight places. Then Santos Express is your place. Very friendly staff, and cute restaurant on site. Located close to the beach.
We urgently looked for accommodation for our workers. They enjoyed it terribly, it was their first time by the sea.
We enjoyed it very much. Experience sleeping in a train, like a hotel by the sea. Will sleep and eat there again. Delicious seafood and friendly hospitality.
Very clean and neat and people are very friendly but on a weekend, people on the beach play music very load and over a weekend you have people sleeping on the beach and they talk the whole night.
Good location, clean and friendly staff.
I did mention with my reservation that I am on crutches and would like to be close to the dining room. They then put me in truck 7, the last compartment. Nothing was mentioned about stairs or ramps. So we decided to leave early on Sunday morning. This was just my personal experience after my major back surgery.
We had compartment with double bed, space very cramped, light switch very uncomfortable place, bathroom sink without plug, shower uncomfortable. Staff were friendly and food was delicious.
Experience was cool, view on the beach is awesome. Food could be better.
The small table in our unit had not been wiped down and previous guests' sticky soda stains were still clearly visible. The sharing bathrooms are a big problem, the toilets full of urine on top of the toilets and on the floor by 6:30 the next morning. Maybe they should consider making toilets available for men and women separately.
Bedding was never changed during the full stay. Only one plug in a double compartment is hopelessly inadequate. At the gate to the beach you can only go out but not come back.
No hairdryers can be used, no kettle for morning/late coffee. No water in room. Impractical accommodation. People clearly audible in rooms next door. Doors open and close too loudly.
We really enjoyed our time at Santos Express and will definitely use their services again.
The view is very beautiful. Service is outstanding. Nothing was missing and is very clean. Safety is very good!
Lovely little place to use as a place to sleep. Nostalgic, reminds me of family train holidays. Sea and beach are a few meters from your window, falling asleep with sea air and the sound of waves. I would recommend Santos as just a place to sleep for visits to Mossel Bay. Excellent place to stay for the young crowd.
I was really impressed with the excellent service and friendliness. What an experience! Thank you!
Reception was on their post and available all the time. Always received with friendly service at the restaurant. Amazing experience not to be in chalet environment.
Santos is good, I just liked everything about the train, and a huge thumbs up to the staff. They were like on point, all the smiles and the warm welcome was the best. I will most definitely return some time again to Santos Express. Food of the restaurant is good, and to our waiter Justin: Mushrooms was fully loaded and I do appreciate the good service also received from the restaurant. Good food, good people leading to a good stay.
Clean, comfortable, affordable accommodation. Right by the sea. Will return anytime.
The staff are very friendly and helpful, truly caring people who made us feel very much at home. We simply felt young again among all the young people. It is a particularly popular place to stay for young people because it is something different and very affordable. We will definitely stay there again. The train restaurant's food is delicious.
Was an experience and very peaceful. Could just pay a little more attention to cleanliness in bathrooms, otherwise it was value for money.
It's a safe place, enough safe parking. Good restaurant, lovely view, even from your bed. Everything within walking distance. (Unless you're a Mall midget.) Swimming beach right below accommodation with a kiosk that sells almost everything. It's simple, top value for money and every person I tell where we stayed immediately wants the details.
The place was neat, very safe with security guard that locked windows and doors in the evening. Staff were friendly. Breakfast included was fair. Even though the place was quite crowded it was quiet. We will definitely book again here.
Convenient on the beach and affordable restaurant.
Always nice to stay on the train.
It's just the tick-tick of the wheels that's missing. Beautiful sea view from sleeping place, neat and clean facilities.
Sleeping on a train is one of the most enjoyable experiences and Santos Express makes it affordable, pleasant and delicious! The restaurant has great coffee and food. The staff are friendly and helpful.
Receptionists extremely helpful and friendly. Location fantastic. For me personally space was very tight in the room but I understand it is a train so for a traveler looking for a new experience it will be a good experience.
The staff are very friendly and the place is clean and neat. It was very peaceful at Santos Express. Will definitely go stay there again.
My husband and I stayed at Santos Express and I have to say we had a great time. The staff were friendly with a good reception. Will definitely be back.
It was very nice. Space just a bit cramped if one has to stay there for a long time. The sea view is beautiful and the location is ideal. The breakfast and atmosphere were delicious.
Had a great stay.
Really enjoyed the time although I wouldn't recommend it for a long period of time as it's really just a bed and breakfast stay. Nonetheless, it was great for us and brought back many fond memories of our previous train adventure. The people very friendly, but also have to say it's Mossel Bay!
Unique experience on a unique location. Bit small but that’s how it used to be, and a lot of material is pretty worn.
Fantastic. Very nice, private beach. Very good idea, close to everything and very affordable. The room is quite small, but is very safe. I will stay there again and I highly recommend it.
Staff were very helpful, children really enjoyed the experience. Sleeping areas very small, but experience was good.
Very small and concise, but service is fantastic and very friendly and helpful staff. They can perhaps have a look at the included light breakfast by not providing the same kinds of cereal every morning and maybe adding yogurt. Especially for people who sleep over more than 1 night. We mostly used it just to sleep. Took daytrips to see the area.
Something different from the usual. Very difficult for the disabled to get up the stairs, including the stairs and the terrible slope to the restaurant (especially in the rain when the railing is wet). Our coupe's door didn't lock from the inside (think it was number 42). When we used the "latch" we couldn't get it open again and after two calls to reception no one came to let us out. With a hell of a struggle we got it open and when we were already outside, a lady came to help us. After that we could not use the latch and the key did not lock the door from the inside. So we slept both nights with the door unlocked, quite unsafe because you don't know who and what was in other compartments.
Just a pity for the parties at night on the beach. The toilet at the restaurant is in urgent need of renovation. It will also help if the sink can get water.
You can't ask for a better view. No towels. Well located.
It was nice to give the kids the experience, but will stay in the luxury unit next time.
The Royal suites brought back memories of my childhood. The accommodation was good, on the beach and the restaurant was reasonable with good food. Breakfast was good and the view was fabulous! Personally, I think there is a need for some maintenance on the coaches and the outside facilities. Other than that, we enjoyed our stay.
Bathrooms and toilet were not acceptably clean.
It was okay, but the lights weren't bright enough and I missed a TV.
We stayed in the Royal Suite. There is a beautiful antique train that has seen better days. The train is located very well close to the sea. If it was closer to the ocean, you would get wet. The unit's hall is a bit narrow, seeing as it is a train hall. The furnishings of the unit is beautiful, bit the maintenance is not up to par. All of the windows can't open up and the bath has a leak and the bathroom was under water after taking a bath.
Unfortunately, all the fittings of the old train did not work as they did in the old days.
The beautiful accommodation is really great value for money and the complimentary breakfast is great and include: 2 kinds of Fresh juices / 3 kinds of cereal / Toast: white and brown bread / 3 kinds of Jam / real butter / Coffee and tea / hot and cold milk / fresh fruit - if you have traveled before, you will know that just the breakfast is a great bargain! You can also order warm breakfast at your own cost, which is still great value for money. Their Grilled fish is Superb by the way! The compartments are meticulously cleaned, neat, presentable and fresh linens are put on every time a visitor leaves. We know, because we stayed for 5 days and got into the routines of everyone around us. The shower is huge and fitted with warm and cold water. The toilets are kept squeaky clean and toilet paper is never something that is amiss when you need to go. The staff is super helpful and friendly, not only from desk, also the fabulous crew from Fork 'n Train, the on site restaurant and bar. Visitors have free WiFi in the restaurant and bar area, not the train compartments and everyone stops to chat and check in with you. This is South Africa at it's most precious. A warm "Good morning, how are you" is reciprocated and when you stop long enough to ask about the town, people have the most amazing stories to tell. A writer's little haven. You literally look down onto the sandy white beach, it feels like a tropical island, especially when your cocktail hits the light just right.
Staff were very friendly and very helpful. Will definitely come again. Would really recommend it to anyone. Restaurant is also just as fantastic. Had a lovely breakfast. You guys are tops.
Santos Express is definitely worth a visit. Not only is its location ideal, it also has a restaurant with delicious dishes and friendly waiters as well as a bar. The compartments themselves are cuddly furnished with the most beautiful views over the sea. Our stay for October is already booked, just a shame December is already fully booked!
Great hospitality.
Very close to the sea, nice and quiet on the porch and waves and sea sounds all night. Slept very well. Nice shower and bath in room.
See stars.
Very cute and safe. Will definitely go again.
The rooms are small (it is in a train) but convenient and clean. We didn't even know that a light breakfast is included in the tariff. Very close to the beach, you can hear the waves crashing at night. Guard with vehicles at night.
Guests have to take note that Santos offers accommodation in train carriages, so be prepared for the fact that it's quite small, with limited space.
See the stars.
Everything good. Just the beds weren't too comfortable, but that is how the train beds were back in the day. Would suggest they add a second pillow. Restaurant food was very good and well priced.
A pleasant place to stay. Will definitely visit again.
The Royal Suites offer a lovely view of Santos beach and are particularly spacious. The restaurant staff is friendly, the menu includes delicious traditional SA dishes and the food is tasty. Santos is good value for money.
Thanks for the hearty welcome by Sam and the staff. We will definitely visit Santos again. What an experience. It was fantastic.
We had a great time, took me back to the days of my youth when I often travelled by train. The staff was so helpful and the people at reception went out of their way to make us feel at home. Affordable rate included breakfast and it was enough! I will definitely be back. We celebrated Valentine's day in the "dining hall / restaurant"!
Hierdie verblyf is so abstrak, beautiful en uniek. Dit was vir my en my vrou 'n plesier om drie nagte hier te woon. Wat vir my baie spesiaal was, was die geluid van die branders wat breek, die stunning Royal Suite kamer en die gerief van die restaurant/pub. Ek sien uit om weer hier te kom bly, wat 'n belewenis.
Once in a lifetime experience. Will recommend it as affordable overnight accommodation with good service from the office staff (Sam) and the restaurant staff. Good food and tranquil vibe with fantastic sea view.
Friendly staff and very neat and clean. Beautiful view of the ocean and delicious breakfast.
We will certainly book again at Santos Express. It was nice to wake up in the morning and look at the sea and hear the waves. The food at the restaurant was delicious. The town is within walking distance. To go for a walk on the beach early in the morning was very refreshing. The visit to the Diaz Museum was very interesting.
It had been a lovely experience and the deck outside the compartment had been a pleasure to use, it was lovely to sit there and look out to sea. Would recommend the experience to anyone. The only problem was that when the security makes its rounds you wake up from its noise.
Really enjoyed it. The restaurant is clean, but it needs a bit of paint and varnish. It felt old and neglected. Bedding and sleep areas were very clean and neat, can really recommend it as a overnight stop. Friendly reception and treatment from the staff.
Excellent, affordable accommodation, right next to the beach.
Will be back any day for a 2 night stay. The food was delicious and not too expensive Nice veranda if you want to socialize or you can just chill in the bar and watch the rugby. What an experience.
We're glad we enjoyed it, everything was nice and clean, wonderful to stay on the sea like this and hear the waves at night. Breakfast was quite a nice surprise.
It was a lovely experience and we would visit Santos Express again. The only thing that bothered us was that the shower facilities were dirty on both days. Thanks for a wonderful experience.
Friendly and helpful staff. Upgraded 2nd night to royal suite. More space and beautifully furnished. Best view and right on the beach. Good restaurant and cheap bier.
The space in the compartments are too small for two people to stay longer than a day. The toilets and showers can be upgraded. There can also be more 220 V plugs in the room for laptops and cell phones. Free internet could also be a bonus.
Santos Express is a neat idea. We enjoyed our night there. Great location at the beach. Sound of the waves was so beautiful at night. Tall people won't be comfortable because the beds are small. My boy is over the moon because he can tell everyone he slept on a train.
Good accommodation for 1 or 2 nights. They will have to do something about the warm water.
It was wonderful, but a bit cramped for more than one night. Nice meal in the restaurant in front of the fireplace. Friendly service, but they should do something about the towels, very thin and worn out. Not what you would expect from "luxury".
Lovely breakfast and view from restaurant. Room space quite limited and humid, ocean not visible anymore due to growth in front of the window.
Unique experience! Beautiful view! Some things need attention, such as cabin windows, which do not function properly. Floors can be renovated.
The train wagon is beautiful, but the maintenance is very poor. Window pains are rotten, blinds don't close properly, the wind was blowing over our heads in the night. If nothing is done about that, there will be no train left within a few years. Ah shame. Next morning we only had 1 hot shower! My partner had to take an ice cold one. The same happened to our friends in the other wagon. This is very, very unpleasant when the weather is cold and there is no heating in the wagon. After complaining, a staff member only produced a very tiny ‘sorry’, while his superiors ignored us. Apparently it was our own problem. Again: a shame. We paid a lot of money to get a very poor service.
See the stars.
See rating.
It was truly one of the "coolest" places we have ever stayed. You need a week to look at all the things just in your compartment. Wow!
Santos Exoress is an excellent place and lots do do and see in the area. Fantastic holiday destination. We will book it again.
My children uses the photo I took of the sunset as profile pics and screen savers. Breathtakingly beautiful!
It was fantastic! The service was excellent and everybody was friendly. We are going again come August.
Santos is centrally located. You can go anywhere you want, whether it's Knysna or Oudtshoorn, all the areas are only 100 km away. The staff are very friendly and helpful and should you be looking for a place, they will be able to help you without having to struggle with an address. There are also road maps available on the train itself to locate the location. Besides that, they offer a delicious breakfast included in the price.
The accommodation, food and service was unbelievable!
Staff is very friendly, area is clean and tidy. Had a great time at Santos Express. Would love to go there again next year!
The train is well located. The restaurant is just next door and serves delicious meals. Santos Beach is a beautiful, safe beach. The train needs some maintenance, but otherwise lovely.
Maybe not ideal for people with small kids, but very comfortable place for a beach visit.
This was something else! Really nice experience.
See the stars.
It's the ideal summer getaway for singles, couples, families and groups. That you will enjoy it is guaranteed whether you are lively or more withdrawn.
The location is exceptional. Woke up every morning to the sound of the sea.
We were very excited about our stay from arrival. It just got better and better. From check in to check out, it was fantastic, well done!
Might just cater for early morning coffee.
The train is on the beach, but there is a massive shrub in front of the window! Beds are clean and comfortable, not nice to share bathroom with the "corridor".
Except that the room wasn't finished when we got there and the bathroom and toilet wasn't very clean. I suggest you appoint someone to clean the bathroom and toilet regularly. When you shower everything gets wet, make a separation to keep your clothes and towel dry.
What you see on advertisement and what you get at Santos Express are two different things. The advertisement describes the Royal Suite as a "royal suite" with a victorian bath and sea view while only certain suites meet the requirements. They were willing to refund our money but not to move us to the suite we thought we had booked.
Our booking was for 2 adults and a baby. After a very long travel from Pretoria the room was only for 2 adults and there was not even space for the baby. When approaching management they said they will pay back the money, but still deducted a cancellation fee without any worries where we were going to get another place to stay after travelling for 14 hours. The women had a bad attitude.
Had a great stay.
Lovely weather. Perfectly located.
The communication with me as a customer is unbeatable. "Santos Express" staff are very efficient. They packed us a delicious take away breakfast. It was a romantic experience for me and my wife! We will definitely go there again!
Reception very friendly, administration workers very helpful. The stay was fantastic, thoroughly enjoyed. Will recommend to my family and friends.
All together, beach, food and accommodation. Friendly service and it creates a calm and warm atmosphere. Told everyone about what a great experience it was. You will definitely see me again soon.
We had a very nice time at Santos Express, a unique B&B. The taps in the cabins were very stiff and hard to use.
Definitely worth it. Nice view of the sea, wake up to the waves. One suggestion: air conditioning is definitely needed (very hot inside). With the view of the sea it makes you feel like you are on holiday.
We really enjoyed being able to sleep on the beach, so to speak.
It was a good experience for us and we liked the tranquility there.
It met our expectations 100%.
It was really pleasant, prompt service, delicious restaurant on site and right on the beach!
Clean with nice sea view.
They could upgrade a bit and provide power points for hair dryers in the rooms. The power points for hair dryers etc. in the toilet is not safe to begin with.
Incredible experience that will stay with us forever.
Santos is the perfect accommodation if you don't want to spend the whole day indoors. The sea view is fantastic. The compartment is a bit cramped, but is ideal if you just want to spend the night, and is definitely value for money, including the breakfast. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I think the bathroom facilities might be a problem if it's fully booked. We were there out of season and did not experience this as a problem. I would definitely recommend Santos, and in fact already have.
It was fantastic. Very romantic and peaceful!
Definitely something to experience. Environment peaceful and very calming. Staff provided excellent service.
The stay was nice, close to all the places!
It was an experience to sleep on a train... and so close to the sea.
Definitely an asset to LekkeSlaap. My wildest dreams have been surpassed. Hospitable, considerate, clean, tidy and friendly hosts...
It was very pleasant.
It really is something everyone should try. It is completely different from the usual accommodation.
The only problem we encountered was that the shower had no partition so when you then opened the shower tap in the open plan shower, everything splashed. Was not pleasant!
The location is lovely! You hear the sea and the view from your cabin is beautiful!
We were looking for accommodation for one night. The staff were friendly and helpful. Will definitely use them again!
See the stars below.
Wonderfully located near the beach, clean and tidy and everything you need for an overnight stay. The children loved the experience of being able to sleep on a train.
See the stars below.
See the stars below.
The single "coach" room has a very small bed, not suitable for big, tall men. Toilet and shower facilities are shared with other "passengers". There is a restaurant and bar, so guests don't have to walk or drive far for food and entertainment.
The Santos Express is well located and safe!
