Louis is a warm, open, and caring host. He guided us via WhatsApp from Lusikisiki to the accommodation, which gave us a real sense of safety while driving on unpaved roads in the dark. He even brought us groceries from town and was always helpful....

Being treated as a family member, escorted on the road if not familiar with rural roads, safety and care of his customers is at heart, business doesn't end only when one submits the keys but extra care for those who struggling

Where the view reminds you to Slow Down! Comfortable, rustic, off-the-beaten-track accommodation in the Wild Coast, an experience in itself. Scenic 20km slow drive there, a beautiful Old School African Adventure. This is the perfect place to unwind and connect with your surroundings, whether it is a family holiday, a group adventure, a romantic getaway or solo meditation retreat. We offer accommodation in two of our beautiful rondavels. The Crowned Eagle House and The Family Rondavel. Crowned Eagle House lives up to its name, perched at a breathtaking viewpoint on the edge of the plateau ridge, it offers the very best setting, view, and atmosphere for deep rest and meditation. This open-plan, funky little retreat has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Step outside to the unique hot shower, designed with wide doors so the incredible scenery becomes part of your bathing ritual. The Family Rondavel has a double bed and 2 bunkbeds that has shared use of a communal kitchen area, communal ablution facilities with hot showers and a composting toilet with magnificent forest views. There is a braai area nearby with comfortable seating accompanied by breathtaking panoramic scenery. Guests can enjoy tours and hikes with your host, Louis (inquire about package costs). Louis can take you on a fantastic adventure to see waterfalls. Tours range from easy to medium hikes and will take you across beaches, to waterfalls, through crystal mountain pools and lush forests. Breath Pleasure Meditation retreats and gardening workshops can also be booked.
Hey, I’m Louis — a bit of a barefoot philosopher, a hippie at heart, and a believer in the healing power of breath, presence, and nature. For years, I searched for meditations that actually worked — not just for one night, but for a lifetime. The kind that keep opening you, deeper and deeper, every time.
Go to Google Maps and switch on satellite view to see what words cant describe. Gwexintaba is a traditional mPondo village and home of the 144m Magwa Falls, just 3km away from the house. This is a piece of raw African scenery, bursting with local culture and incredible nature.
