Sanlou invites you to a home away from home. an Affordable modern 4 bedroom home with all the required amenities, with amazing sea views. Come shake off those city blues and put your feet up and sit on one of our decks with your preferred sundowner, and see the whales and dolphins pass by. We offer peace of mind for those dreaded loadshedding days as we have an inverter to ensure you can watch your preferred TV programs at night, We have free Wi-Fi access with sufficient lighting when the grid power is off. Our fiber supply is consistent and reliable. Water supply is ample and supported by two large Jojo water tanks and always in supply. Sitting in the jacuzzi gazing over the see is a must do, and if you wish to wander to the beach it's only 150 m away. Come and relax and see what our guest are raving about. Pets are welcome with prior arrangement and we charge a once off cleaning fee of R 350 which is non refundable. Our customer satisfaction index of 94% says it all. Sanlou is not a party venue but a place to recharged and destress and relax. We look forward in hosting you soon.
40 yrs in customer care environment, with guest interest and care in mind
Quiet residential area with sea views from most of the rooms, and within walking distance 150 meters to the beach. The area is under constant surveillance and patrol 24hrs / day under the control of the local security company Lazer 911. They also protect our property and guest as we are under contract with them. We are close to all the major facilities, malls, hospitals, medical services, fast food facilities etc. all within a radius of 7 km. Our main beach a safe swimming venue and tidal pool, pub and restaurant is 1 km away.
