Tydens die een koeler nat weer dag kon ons selfs heerlik DSTV kyk as tyd verdryf.

Ek beveel hierdie gaste huis met sy vriendelike diens ten sterkste aan."

"Wow! What a mini holiday.

The establishment itself, the owners and staff made me and my family feel at home from day one. Though the weather was somehow not so warm but slightly rainy for the first two days, the establishment itself made us feel warm and, indeed, at home. The last two days were miraculously turned into a real holiday. Thanks to Martin, Joan and their wonderful sons. They made use of their own vehicle to show us around. My children loved it and a big thank you guys, your hospitality deserves a space in my diary.

Another booking is a MUST for November/December.

Thank you."

"We found the accommodation most satisfactory. The hosts were warm and welcoming without being intrusive. Our unit was very clean and had all the necessities one expects to find right down to a torch in the bedroom cupboard. Tea, coffee, sugar as well as milk in the fridge was available. The toiletries and biscuits on the bed added a nice touch. Full DSTV as well as WiFi was available which was a big plus for my teenager. There were many shops in the area and it was not far from the Hemingways Mall which boasts a casino, hotel, cinema and various different shops and restaurants. We felt safe in our unit and I would definitely use Bon à Vie again should I ever need accommodation in East London."

"We had a wonderful stay. Bona a Vie is situated in a quiet and safe residential area yet is close to the beach and major shopping centres. The accommodation exceeded our expectations. The establishment's facilities are all of a high standard and well maintained. I doubt that there's anything currently available that would beat the venue in terms of value for money. The hosts, Martin and Joan made us feel completely at home. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend bon a Vie to friends. We will definitely be back."
