Your Hosts
Enjoy your stay at 224 on Carinus B&B & Convalescent and AfterCare Stay and with Johan and Rudolph as your hosts.
How 224 on Carinus all started
With Johan's background in the Tourism and Hospitality Industry it quickly started with a one self-catering unit and soon realized that the demand for a bed & breakfast accommodation is far more in demand than 2 roomed self-catering unit. Towards the end of 2013 we changed one of the bedrooms in the main house in to a guest room with en-suite facility and the 2 room self-catering unit into 2 separate guest rooms with their own en-suite facilities, thus the start of 224 Carinus Bed & Breakfast.
Tourism grading followed and the rest is history.
In 2018 we incorporated the Convalescent and Aftercare and our focus changed more in to the aftercare with our B&B. Unfortunately the Tourism grading agency did not know how to grade us.
We have a changed over the years with all our attention to a satisfied customer / patient.
