Name: We have stayed at Mykonos Resort numerous times. During our most recent visit in September 2022, we stayed in the top Suites with a stunning view of the Harbour. The view was magnificent, and the sunsets were a breathtaking display of nature's beauty, truly indescribable! The staff were consistently helpful and pleasant. We also made use of the Golf Cart service, which was excellent! We appreciated the privacy we had. We are eagerly anticipating our next trip to the West Coast🚘🚘

Die Dam

4 Ward Maja

Simple yet tranquil and well-maintained. The beach is long and clean.

Knoetzie beach

6 Ethan Blackwood

Although touted as a must-see tourist spot, reaching this beach requires a lengthy drive. Regrettably, the route is no longer marked, necessitating the use of a navigation app to locate it. The journey to the beach is arduous. Nonetheless, the beach itself is a serene and picturesque location, complete with vigilant lifeguards. Having experienced it once, there is no need to return.

Paternoster beach II

10 Mark Jensen

We stayed at Dunes Guesthouse in April '23 and the location was absolutely amazing. Our room was just a few steps away from the stunning beach, making it the perfect spot for enjoying a beach-side sun-downer. The staff was incredibly friendly and the atmosphere was welcoming. Additionally, the breakfast was delicious. I would definitely recommend this place.

Lekkerwater beach

10 Evans Linda

The best whale watching experience ever, featuring captivating interactions between a mother whale and her calf. The marine walk was intriguing, and the night rock pool adventure was thrilling. The historical gorge walk, complete with a fynbos tutorial, was enlightening. The food was delicious, the staff were attentive, and the guides were outstanding. Plus, the hot tub had the best view!

Sandbaai beach

10 Mark Jensen

We stumbled upon this beach not too long ago. Despite the rain that day, it was evident that the beach possessed a captivating beauty and tranquility that made me promise to come back once the weather improved. Since then, we have visited the beach two more times, solidifying its place as one of our go-to destinations in the future. It truly showcases nature's utmost splendor. 👌
