We completed a two-night stay just over one week ago. The property is beautiful and the service fantastic. The rooms are modern, renovated and very comfortable. All of the staff is very friendly and accommodating. The advice provided for restaurants (there is no on-site restaurant), shopping and sightseeing was all fantastic. The breakfasts are delicious and the common areas are... More

How funny that the previous reviewer was on honeymoon, as we were too! When we made our booking, we had paid an upgrade for a seaview, and were really pleased we had, the view is stunning. A huge beach that stretched for miles, and with virtually nobody on it. We got up early on the first morning to watch the... More

Robberg was great! This was our third stop on our honeymoon and after a 6 hr drive from wine country we were exhausted; the staff waited late and was very accomodating!!!! Despite it being low season and relatively quiet, we found the Robberg to be a great place. The room was beautiful and the service superb....and the beach completely stole... More

What a privilege to be part of your honeymoon - thanks for choosing us, and for such a great review. It's lovely to hear about your experience at the Robberg - yep, we think that amazing beach is the star of the show too - and here's to many happy years together filled with friendship, love, and (hopefully) more visits...

We only had the opportunity to spend one night at this fabulous property but we made the most of it. We were upgraded to absolutely stunning rooms and had the opportunity to utilise the upper deck with our own bottles of wine to enjoy the spectacular sunset. The hotel is gorgeous, the staff amazing and the rooms over the top... More

Music to our ears - thank you for your lovely review. I loved hearing that you had some good moments on the view terrace: it's my favourite place at the Robberg, and we've had a few good bottles of wine up there ourselves, sorting out the problems of the world. It's great to be able to share it with guests... More

What a pity that winter had just started to set in when we arrived in April, because this must be one of the world's most beautiful beach boutique-hotel. The owner had upgraded us to a suite, and the room was so new that it almost still had the celophane wrap on it! ( and, for the first time in SA... More

What a fantastic review - thank you! You have us all walking on air. Thanks for choosing the Robberg. I'm glad we could do the upgrade, and glad that European plug helped make your stay more comfy. Hope we can welcome you back sometime. Until then, best wishes from all of us at the Robberg. More

A warm welcome to boutique chic. Not an easy combination but the Robberg pulls it off. Whilst not every bedroom has a sea view, the lounge area does and what a view! An amazing spot with beautiful, spacious interiors and grounds. But no matter how lovely a place is, what matters to us is whether the staff are happy at... More

The last review has it exactly right. 6 of us travelled through SA for 2 plus weeks and this was our least favourite hotel. Curt welcome. The white, lady manager bordered on rude at welcome and treated one of her black baggage handling staff sharply during our check-out (those of us who witnessed it were shocked at her tone, language)....

The rooms and bathrooms are large, and the facility was clean, but the whole feel was verging on institutional. The feel was closer to a brand new Holiday Inn rather than a luxury boutique hotel. The front desk service was curt and there was no warmth or welcome on arrival. At best the greeting was perfunctory. Compared to the website... More
