Everything was perfect by

Everything was perfect


Great place to camp with nice pool by

It was very difficult to navigate through the camp if you tow a boat or jetski. Pool fantastic to cool off after a day at the sea.


None that can be mentioned by

We had driven all the way from Durban to Esperanca do Mar and arrived at about 16h30 tired and hungry. We were told by the gate keeper that there were cool drinks and food available at the restaurant. After unpacking we went to the pool / bar area only to find it deserted and the drinks fridges locked. We shouted and hooted to no avail and eventually decided to drive out of the facility to try and find another restaurant so well promoted by Safari but found that we had been locked into the facility. We ended up breaking the lock on the gate in an effort to get out and obtain food and refreshments. Not knowing where to go we ended up back at the facility and started preparing our food that we had brought with us. During this time (approximately18h00) the owners came back and advised that they had been out "entertaining guests" and we "should have known the security code on the lock on the gate"????. We were eventually served food and drinks at about 18h30. We will not be going back.


Being upgraded to an executive campsite at no extra charge by

Upon arrival at the lodge I was informed that i was upgraded to an executive campsite (at no extra cost) as they were busy with repairs at the ablution block. At the campsite I was pleasantly surprised as I now had my own shower (hot water) and toilet and a sink to do my washing up. The staff were very friendly and even assisted with setting up of my tent. I went to the bar/restaurant to have a beer and ended up having an excellent meal (i planned to light a fire) due to the fact that the people made me feel at home and ended up enjoying a pleasant evening with them. The lodge is very clean and the beach is only about 80 meters away. The swimming pools were very clean and overall the lodge is very well maintained. There is no doubt in my mind that i will be returning because I left there not as a guest but as a friend. I would recommend Esperanca do Mar any day!


Wonderlik! by

Almal by Esperanca is gasvry en hulpvaardig. Akkomodasie skoon met hulp met skoon maak en wasgoed ( ons het 5 kinders in groepie gehad) Dit is veilig en strand is skoon. Ons het baie lekker gekuier en sal defnitief weer gaan as geleentheid het. Dis ook nie te ver van grens af nie wat meer tyd gun vir rus en minder tyd op pad. Baie dankie!


Home away from home by
