About this property

Skye Sea Cottage: seaviews, deck, fireplace, wifi

Take it easy at this unique and tranquil beachfront getaway. Experience rustic-soulful-ocean living like never before!

This cosy two-bedroom cottage has beautiful views from each room. The main room boasts an indoor fireplace, special reading nook, and a deck overlooking the ocean. Sea Cottage has a spacious, open-plan, lounge and dining room area with built-in braai and a massive rooftop deck overhead - the best place to enjoy coffee at sunrise and a sundowner/braai at sunset.
The space
The Skye Beach Cottage is located in a paradisiacal part of South Africa's Garden Route and is one of four accommodations of the Skye Beach Guesthouse. The cottage is nestled in a dune overlooking the pristine coastline and offers a rustic indoor-outdoor experience. So it is fairly basic but clean and comfortable. The outside area is spacious and scenic and includes one large deck overhead. The deck area is perfect for sunrise coffee's and sunset sundowners; as well as refreshing yoga/pilates sessions with panoramic ocean views and the sound of waves crashing all around you. The deck area below boasts a large braai/bbq area, outdoor shower area, and natural flora and fauna...

Skye Beach Cottage offers a cool and comfortable space without compromising the sensation of being in nature. And make no mistake -you are in nature. During your stay, you may possibly encounter some wildlife, whether it be: a rain spider, snails, some ants, a shongololo... but we treat them as welcome guests. If the thought of nature & wildlife is off-putting to you, then perhaps Skye Beach Cottage is not the best option for you (sincerely). If the thought of nature, outdoors, adventure, and occasional "roughing it” excites you, then come and enjoy the space!!
Guest access
Guests have access to their entire space.
Pets are allowed (not inside the rooms & please bring their own beds).
Other things to note
PRIVACY (please note):
The Skye Beach Cottage is one of four accommodations of the Skye Beach Guesthouse (all bookable on airbnb); it is neighbours with
(1)Skye Beach House (main deckhouse) which accommodates up to 6 people;
(2) Skye Beach Garden Villa which accommodates up to 8 people; and (3) Skye Ocean Nest which accommodates up to 2 people.

If other guests are staying at Skye Beach Guesthouse on the same days of your booking at the Cottage, you will likely be aware of their presence at some point, they share the same driveway and parking area. Don’t be afraid though, as these are just fellow beach lovers looking to rest and revive in a tranquil location. :)

The actual accommodations have their own private entrances, facilities (fully equipped kitchens, bathrooms, etc). You may occasionally see/ hear other people but we appreciate all Skye Beach Guesthouse inhabitants to be respectful when it comes to noise (especially after 11 pm) – we make that clear during the booking process.

There is fast uncapped fiber/wifi perfect for those looking to work remotely.

Bath towels are provided but please bring your own beach towels. :)

It may also be worth mentioning that, despite our deepest desires, we are unfortunately NOT in control of the weather (of which the Garden route can be very unpredictable until about 2 days prior). If you see it might rain a bit during your stay, consider packing a raincoat or go make memories in the ocean... nothing quite like a refreshing dip on a rainy day and an adventure is only as fun as you make it ;)

Terrible experience. The agent told us YOU did not communicaye our booking and that she never received it. We had to find other accomodation , at exhorbitant prices, because we had no choice. This is the busiest time of the year. Did you communicate my booking. Did she mess it up? Im extremely unsatisfied. We now sit in a little house far away from the sea, at an exorbitantly inflated rate.
