"Owners & staff were remarkable! We needed a Dr. for a knee injury, and mountains were moved to accommodate our desire for a home visit. Forever grateful."

Tip:
"Breathtaking scenery, great location, and a home with character. The chef energetically took on any challenge we threw at him and excelled beyond expectations."

"A perfect peaceful place with an amazing view to unwind. Little pool and the beach a few steps away. The cook is wonderful and does the shopping too so you never need to leave your cottage if you don’t want to. Great showers and lots of comfy loungers just where you need them for n and out of the sun. "

"420 South is paradise and we can’t recommend it highly enough! We spent 4 days at Chikore house and we wish we could have stayed longer. The house is beautifully designed, spacious and comfortable. We spent most of our time on the veranda overlooking the turquoise sea and sparkling white sands – here we could read and relax, immerse ourselves in the plunge pool, watch the sun go down with a drink and homemade samosas (made by our wonderful cook Baraza) and eat delicious meals. We loved those fresh fruit breakfasts! The team at 420 South is like a close family – and we were honoured to be treated as members of that family. Every wish was catered for, and we were looked after superbly by all members of the team, but especially by Baraza the cook (who created delicious fresh fish recipes with local produce and also shopped for us), and the hardworking and friendly housekeepers Mercy and Jane. We loved the place – swimming in the warm, clear sea, going for long walks along the palm-fringed white sand beach, taking a trip in a fishing boat to the reef to do some snorkelling, or enjoying a snack at one of the nearby beachside bars or hotels. We can’t wait to go back!"

Tip:
"420 South provides peace and comfort in a stunningly beautiful location, so leave the outside world behind, relax and let the 420 South team take care of you! Snorkelling at the reef is something you must do - but otherwise take a good book and soak up that sun!"

"I have stayed in many places in the last 20 years at the coast and Kualuka was perfect. Low key, perfect location very close to the beach with a large grassy area in front. Lots of comfortable seats, a little pool for lounging in, helpful staff, good food and time to properly relax because the shopping and airport transfer are taken care of by the team. "

Tip:
"If you need to rest and relax and do as little as possible, after a stressful or intense work period, this is a perfect place for you. "
