Quiet and safe. Very nice place. I would only recommend that the shower curtain be replaced, because it smells, and the sheet for the large bed, because it had stains on it. The double bed's mattresses sleep like Cloud 9, very nice. The swimming pool was very clean. The drain smell also lingers a bit in the shower. Maybe you should just turn on the shower before guests check in and freshen it up a bit. I also think the price is good for the units. The cleaning fee is a bit high. The environment is very safe and very quiet. Thanks for a nice stay.

Stil en veilig. Baie oulike plekkie. Ek sal net aanbeveel dat die stortgordyn vervang moet word, want dit ruik, en die laken vir groot bed, want dit het vlekke op gehad. Die dubbelbed se matrasse slaap soos Cloud 9, baie lekker. Swembad was mooi skoon. Die dreinreuk slaan ook bietjie op in die stort. Dalk moet julle net die stort oopdraai voor gaste inboek en bietjie vars maak. Verder dink ek die prys is goed vir die eenhede. Die skoonmaak koste is bietjie baie. Omgewing is baie veilig en baie stil. Dankie vir 'n lekker bly.

Quiet and safe. Very peaceful and safe environment. The garden is beautiful and the swimming pool is clean. The double bed sheet only had stains. Otherwise no complaints about the accommodation. The price is good, only the cleaning fee is a bit excessive. Thank you for the nice stay.

Stil en veilig. Baie rustige en veilige omgewing. Die tuin is mooi en die swembad is skoon. Die dubbelbedlaken het net vlekke gehad. Verder geen klagtes oor akkommodasie nie. Die prys is goed, net die skoonmaak koste wat bietjie oortollig is. Dankie vir die lekker bly.

Fair. It was okay. We had to pay a R500 cash deposit if there were any breakages. Refundable. Someone walked in unannounced every day. We had to request for them to switch the outside lights on around the pool. It was only on for the first night, but the rest of the weekend it was off.

Rubbish and certainly not worth the rental. They can get away with. The pictures lie. The pool level was down by 40cm as it "had a leak" and had just been cleaned, so there was an unhealthy amount of chlorine granules floating on the pool. Our bedroom ceiling had a huge brown stain, and the interleading door is so thin that we could hear our neighbours do everything from their dog's nails clicking on the floor to hearing them open a fizzy drink. The smells from their ablutions also came under the door, and our room stank. The big heavy gate does not have a motor and cannot lock, so we had to strain to get it open and closed.

Total exploitation and nightmare experience. Not value for money at all. This was an absolute nightmare experience. We booked 7 nights and decided to drive away after 2 nights and look for other accommodation. The double bed in the main bedroom was like a hammock and you simply couldn't sleep on it, after two nights we experienced severe back pain. Apart from the poor condition of the bed, the premises were not safe at all - the gate wouldn't close, the gate motor didn't work and the entire premises was packed full of pallets. The unit is also very small and not made for four people to stay in. The photos are definitely misleading. This type of property should not be available on a platform like this. We brought the issue of the bed to the attention of the property representative and no alternative was offered. This is total exploitation, please don't make the same mistake as us.

Totale uitbuiting en nagmerrie-ervaring. Glad nie waarde vir geld nie. Hierdie was 'n asbolute nagmerrie-ervaring. Ons het 7 nagte bespreek en het besluit om na 2 nagte te ry en ander verblyf te gaan soek. Die dubbelbed in die hoofslaapkamer was soos 'n hangmat gewees en 'n mens kon eenvoudig nie daarop slaap nie, na twee nagte het ons erge rugpyn ervaar. Buiten die swak toestand van die bed, was die perseel glad nie veilig nie ─ die hek kon nie sluit nie, die hekmotor het nie gewerk nie en die hele perseel was vol palette gepak gewees. Die eenheid is ook baie klein en nie gemaak vir vier mense om in te bly nie. Die foto's is verseker misleidend. Hierdie tipe eiendom hoort nie beskikbaar te wees op 'n platform soos hierdie nie. Ons het die probleem van die bed onder die verteenwoordiger van die eiendom gebring en geen alternatief is aangebied nie. Hierdie is totale uitbuiting, moet asb. nie dieselfde fout as ons maak nie.

Thank you for your feedback. We always strive to make our guests' stay as pleasant as possible and appreciate any feedback that helps us improve. Our beds are of excellent quality and we generally receive very positive comments about them. We are sorry to hear that this particular guest experienced a challenge. We would have liked to have been notified in time to rectify the situation or offer alternative solutions. It is of course difficult to make changes in the middle of peak season, and we understand that this sometimes leads to misunderstandings. We wish the guest all the best and hope that they will find accommodation in the future that can better accommodate their specific needs.

Dankie vir u terugvoer. Ons streef altyd daarna om ons gaste se verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik te maak en waardeer alle terugvoer wat ons help om te verbeter. Ons beddens is van uitstekende gehalte en ons ontvang oor die algemeen baie positiewe kommentaar daaroor. Ons is jammer om te hoor dat hierdie spesifieke gas 'n uitdaging ervaar het. Ons sou graag betyds in kennis gestel wou word om die situasie reg te stel of alternatiewe oplossings aan te bied. Dit is natuurlik moeilik om in die middel van die piekseisoen veranderinge aan te bring, en ons verstaan dat dit soms lei tot misverstande. Ons wens die gas alle sterkte toe en hoop dat hulle in die toekoms 'n verblyf sal vind wat hul spesifieke behoeftes beter kan akkommodeer.

It was very nice and peaceful, a safe and peaceful place to cool off. Yes, we had a great time and also enjoyed the tranquility and safety of the accommodation. It was very nice.

Baie lekker en rustig gewees, 'n veilige en rustige afkoel kuierplekkie. Ja, ons het baie lekker gebly en ook die rustigheid en veiligheid van die akkommodasie geniet. Dit was baie lekker.
