"We stayed at the Cinnamon Boutique for three nights, using the hotel as a base to explore the Garden Route. Although we used the hotel as a base, we could have easily have spent more time around the hotel pool. The hotel room was very clean, large and comfortable. We chose a room that had large patio windows which opened onto an upstairs balcony. The rooms had a “luxury” feel about them. Breakfast was great...everything you could ask for. We could not fault the hotel accommodation. Please note,...
