I really enjoyed my stay at Canelands Beach Club, highlighted by the stunning sea views and clean accommodations. However, there were a few service hiccups, especially with the slow food delivery at breakfast and dinner. Overall, it was a pleasant experience that I'd recommend with some caveats.

Rooms

I stayed in a first-floor sea view room with floor-to-ceiling windows. The room was stylish, well-maintained, and I loved being able to watch dolphins swim by from my bed. However, there was a bit of noise from the kitchen staff early in the morning, which could be disruptive.

The location is fantastic for a beach getaway, with amazing views from the hotel. It's clean and comfortable, though I found the lack of shops and bars within walking distance a bit of a downside. a taxi is needed for any excursions beyond the hotel.

Dining

7.0

Dining at the hotel was a treat, with a good selection of menu options. I especially loved the seafood platter, which was the best I had during my trip. However, I was disappointed when my breakfast order was wrong and took a long time to arrive, which meant I had to rush.

Canelands Beach Club offers amazing views of the Indian Ocean, making it a great getaway for those who love the sound of the sea. However, my experience had some ups and downs, especially with room issues and maintenance. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which added to the stay's positives, but there were moments where the service felt lacking.

The hotel's amenities, including the pool area and direct beach access, were very convenient. Yet, the maintenance of the building was lacking, needing attention to some areas.

Canelands Beach Club offers stunning views and a relaxing atmosphere, especially from the sea view rooms with large balconies. However, my overall experience was marred by noise issues from both the restaurant and the kitchen, which disrupted my sleep during the night. The staff was very friendly and accommodating, making me feel welcome throughout my stay. While the dining options were inconsistent, the spa treatment was a highlight. ⚠️🌊

I stayed in a well-appointed sea view room, but the noise from the kitchen and restaurant was a major distraction. I suggest requesting an upper-floor room for more privacy and less disturbance.
