Beatiful modern house. Advert needs to be updated some details incorrect. Beautiful house, very comfortable and well equipped. Everything you can think of is provided for you. The views are amazing and we really felt relaxed. There were a few negative aspects, and the "advertising" of the accommodation needs to be clearer. The amenities advertised include a "hot tub", but we were only advised at 7 a.m. on the morning of check-in that this is in fact a "gas-heated splash pool". We were not informed at the time of booking that this is an extra add-on and that we would need to refill the gas at our own expense. When we arrived, the gas was empty, so we could not even use the pool on arrival, and we didn’t get it refilled as it rained for the rest of our stay. We specifically chose River Tree because it was advertised as having a "hot tub", and in winter this is a bonus—especially for the kids. The advert and follow-up emails from the website also gave incorrect check-in and check-out times. The advert states check-in from 2 p.m. and check-out before 12 p.m., but we were advised by the host at 7 a.m. on the morning of our arrival that check-in is after 10 a.m. and check-out is at 10 a.m. The actual arrival and departure times weren’t communicated clearly before we were due to check in. We had planned to arrive at 2 p.m. and couldn’t change arrangements at such late notice. Leaving at 10 a.m. on the day of departure is ridiculous. This makes it less value for money, as you lose a whole day that you’ve already paid for but can’t make use of. Other than that, it really is a beautiful house and setting.

Nice family visit. We really enjoyed the time, very neat tasteful and well equipped house. It was perfectly located, and we really enjoyed our morning walks to the beach and got in some exercise!

Lekker familiekuier. Ons het die tyd baie geniet, baie netjies smaakvolle en goed toegruste huis. Dit was perfek geleë, en ons het ons oggendstappies strand toe baie geniet en oefening ingekry!

Absolute beautiful house and amazing host. Dina the owner was incredible. Attention to detail shows how beautiful the house is. Everything you need and want under one roof. We used the venue for incredible photos for the morning of our wedding.

Nice modern house with a beautiful view. The fact that the "inside braai" is on the lower level is not very practical, as the kitchen is on the upper level. The small braai on the upper level is not very user friendly, especially if you are a large group of people. (the grills were not clean either). For such a nice modern house I would at least expect decent wine glasses. Only thing that is beyond the control of the owners is the sound of Curro's bike tour which on Sunday morning sounded like they were talking into a megaphone inside your room.

Mooi moderne huis met 'n pragtige uitsig. Die feit dat die "binne braai" op die onderste vlak is, is nie baie prakties nie, aangesien die kombuis op die boonste vlak is. Die klein braaitjie op die boonste vlak is nie baie gebruikersvreindelik nie, vernaamlik as 'n mens 'n groot groep mense is. (die roosters was ook nie skoon nie). Vir so 'n mooi moderne huis sou ek ten minste ordentlike wynglase verwag. Net iets wat buite beheer van die eienaars is, is die klank van Curro se fietstoer wat Sondagogend geklink het of hulle met 'n megafoon binne in jou kamer gepraat het.

Hi Renee, thanks for your review. It's a shame that you had to be in trouble the weekend of the Bike Tour. Our house is usually booked out at that time. People come from all over the world and it's a very prestigious event that only happens once a year. I let the co-host know about the rosters. She gets paid to check the house, thanks for letting me know about that. As for the braai, we are still in the process of building a kitchen underneath, which we will do if finances allow. Greetings Dina Willemse - Host

Hi Renee, dankie vir jou resensie. Dis jammer dat julle die naweek van die Fietstoer in Onrus moes wees. Ons huis is gewoonlik uitgeboek daai tyd. Mense kom van Wereldwyd daarheen en dis 'n baie gesogte geleentheid en gebeur net een keer per jaar. Ek het die co-host laat weet van die roosters. Sy word betaal om die huis te check, dankie dat jy my daarvan laat weet het. Wat die braai aan betref ons is nog in proses om kombuis onder te bou wat ons sal doen as die finansies dit sal toelaat. Groete Dina Willemse - Host

We absolutely loved the location. The view reminded me of the woodland by the sea! Dinie, the owner, and I were constantly in conversation with each other and she really went out of her way to make it special for us. The house was fantastic! 5 bedrooms with 5 bathrooms were just as comfortable and the house literally had everything. Definitely one of the best places we have ever vacationed. It was worth every penny!

Ons was absoluut mal oor die ligging. Die uitsig het my aan die bosveld laat dink by die see! Ek en Dinie, die eienaar, was deurlopend in gesprek met mekaar en sy het regtig uitgegaan om dit vir ons spesiaal te maak. Die huis was fantasties! 5 slaapkamers met 5 badkamers was net so gemaklik en die huis het letterlik als gehad. Definitief een van die beste plekke waar ons nog vakansie gehou het. Dit was elke sent die moeite werd!
