I am retired, and decided to open an establishment to generate a little income for possible holiday in the future! We have two amazing children (then again...who doesn't??) and my husband retired last year too. We do all our own cleaning of the establishment, as this is a form of keeping active and busy. We love gardening, meeting new people and deep sea fishing!! The west coast has been our home for several years, as it is quiet, safe and the people are warm and inviting. Awesome area!
I am situated in a small town on the West Coast of South Africa. The people are friendly, helpful and pleased to see 'new faces'. The town is starting to grow quite a bit, but the people have not let themselves be intimidated by the growth and influx of new people.
I appreciate the comments made by the two ladies and shall see if I can learn how to respond on this site, quicker.... am just waiting for guests to contact me so that I can prepare for next guests!
Keep well.... and busy everyone!
Kind regards

Thank you! I wish you to be blessed too!
Keep well!
I too had a guest give me a gift!! It really touched me!
Having a sign in the house asking guests to leave it in the condition they themselves would like to walk into the house in, has helped tremendously. My husband and I clean everything ourselves, and more often than not, our guests leave our establishment in a great condition!
It's a great gift to any host!
Enjoy it!
I find B. C pays a day or two later after a booking has been done, and having activated the virtual card payment option too, you get paid on the date the guest arrive! Make use of the opportunities that are provided, that work for your particular establishment, and hey presto, a bit of 'elbow grease' a warm and friendly attitude, and you're booked up quickly! Keep your prices competitive and don't try and 'get rich quick'... Treat people the way you want to be treated, and present the establishment the way you would like to have an establishment be, when you get a chance to break away!
