    Very comfortable unit within walking distance from the beach. All the small touches from the hostess make such a difference and make you feel very at home.

Ciao lofts are within a four minute walk to the beach and a quick stroll to restaurants for that real culinary experience. Ciao lofts (Loft 1 & Loft 2) are decorated by the owner who has a passion for interior design and attention to detail. Both lofts has its own satellite TV and has full access to WiFi. Each loft has a queen size bed and a day bed/single bed (can host 3 adults) and a private bathroom with rain showers. Guests can relax on a private terrace. Loft 1 has private access via stairs on the exterior and Loft 2 has access through the main house. There is a passage linking loft 1 & 2 when lofts are booked together (ideal for families). Each loft is completely separate and private. There are no barbeque facilities. All the popular restaurants are within walking distance from Ciao.
After spending twelve years abroad we decided to return home to our sunny South Africa and more especially to the picturesque Paternoster village. During our travels we stayed in various guesthouses, hotels and apartments and always discussed what we liked/disliked about a property. When we decided to open the two lofts in our home we wanted to create a luxurious environment for guests to experience the relaxed and peaceful lifestyle of Paternoster. We go out of our way to make our guests feel welcome and meet and greet them personally.
