It is a wonderful place with a great room ( Maritime) . Very well appointed and very tastefully decorated. The manager, Fiona, was most pleasant and helpful. It is a great place to relax ( nice walks around) before a long flight. We loved it there.

Great Place
We loved our stay. We got an upgrade and Henk give us a lot of information and suggestions about the Town and the restaurants near by. Breakfast has a good variety of foods and drinks. We only spent a night but I wish to have more time there.
Thanks for the warm welcome.

We only stayed at Kingfisher for one evening, but we can’t say enough positive things about the staff. We had an early morning flight the next morning and Cilliers went above and beyond to ensure we had snacks to take with us and had a safe ride to the airport. Much appreciated!

Pleasant Stay
Very clean and tidy Guesthouse. Rooms are spacious and well serviced. Breakfast is good although buffet is not large. Chef's cooked breakfast is a highlight. Owners are very friendly and location is adequate with shopping centre only 10 mins walk away. WiFi is OK although had many difficulties with voice over data. It should be noted that this Guesthouse does not allow any visitors - they are very specific about this and do mention prosecution if any visitor is found on the premises. There were a couple of occasions I would have liked to invite my host in to enjoy the courtyard but was unable to.

Wonderful stay and attention to detail
Wonderful stay for a sports event in PE. Comfortable, clean and decent sized room, and very welcoming staff and breakfast. The room was equipped with not just fridge but also microwave which came very in handy. The downfall was the wifi connection was very unstable and not super fast.
