We liked the stay very much. We had an excellent breakfast with a great view over the sea. A lush garden with swimming pool. Rene and Renate care very well for their hosts. They gave us a lot of helpful information about interesting things in the environment.

Our stay was very comfortable, the facilities are spotless and the hosts are very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended. The room is quiet, the view magnificent and the sound of the sea as if the room borders the beach.

For the price does it get better than this! In a very upmarket part of Ramsgate. Managed by Swiss perfection, clean, beautifully well kept comfortable rooms, and lovely sea view and pool with loungers.

This was our 6th visit to Wailana and always welcomed warmly. Luxury is daily fresh bed linen and towels! The room is large, airy and has a beautiful view of the sea and garden. Wonderful service, satisfying breakfast made to your liking. Gracious host and hostess - what more could you want?

You did a last minute booking and gave us your consent to deduct the money from the Credit Card over a third party agent. You failed to arrive. Terms and conditions were sent to you with the no refund policy.

I found the accomdation to be spacious and well set up (WIFI connection was strong). The service was good and the view from the room spectacular. Thouroughly enjoyed my over night stay. My trip was for business purposes, however I anjoyed the venue so much, I took details from their business card as a future choice for a family holiday. Thank you
