We also enjoyed the pool. We enjoyed watching the eagles and there were quite a few monkeys in the area. We also loved the dog Asher she was really a lot of fun.

    01 May 2013

    "Our stay at Rocky Pool was fabulous! The cottage is lovely and it has a stunning view. My children thoroughly enjoyed the swimming pool and trampoline. The steps down to the cottage are quite steep but still managable. Nicky and Johan are awesome hosts and made us very welcome. The family dog was also an unexpected delight! Thank you for a wonderful stay!"

  • "Lovely"

    05 April 2012

    "Location was lovely. Access not very good - very steep, slippery steps. The unit itself was quite nice, just a little 'frayed at the edges'. Mattresses very hard and thin. A few little touches would make it very special. Views spectacular. The swimming pool and play area were very good. An extra set of keys would have been helpful. Access to beaches not great as you have to drive everywhere. Other facilities were adequate."
