A quietly run guesthouse

Wake up to the surf and walk barefoot across to the sand

4Shore Guesthouse presents nine en‑suite rooms with private entrances, secure parking, a beach across the way, and an owner who answers the phone.

Owner‑run by Winston, who confirms availability and rates directly. No third‑party agents, no booking fees. Most guests come back because the rate is honest, the beds are right, the surf is loud enough at night, and the hospitality is personal.
