A home away from home! The upstairs accommodation was very comfortable and cozy. It was very clean and neat as a pin! We had everything we needed at our fingertips. We had DStv, a kitchen with a microwave, stove, fridge, toaster, kettle, washing machine, and drying machine. Very comfortable bed with an en suite bathroom in one bedroom. Very comfortable chairs in the lounge area, and there is an outdoor patio where you can braai in a Jetmaster. There are two tables and chairs under a large umbrella, so you are sheltered. You can also eat indoors; there is a wooden table with chairs indoors as well. There is coffee and tea available when you arrive, with milk in the fridge. We were also lucky enough to get a bottle of rosé wine! We were made very welcome by the owner and her son! Cannot thank them enough! We will definitely be back.

Everything was very convenient! Wonderful stay! The unit has everything you could think of and has a homely feel. Owners were very hospitable. The balcony with braai was a big bonus. Adrian was always friendly and always available for any questions we had. He also cleaned the braai every day. The children really enjoyed the DStv and balcony. The WiFi was also a big bonus. We will stay there again in the future.

Alles was baie gerieflik! Heerlike verblyf! Die eenheid het als waarin mens kon dink en het 'n huislike gevoel. Eienaars was baie gasvry. Die balkon met braai was 'n groot bonus. Adrian was altyd vriendelik en altyd beskikbaar vir enige vrae wat ons gehad het. Hy het ook elke dag die braai skoon gemaak. Die kinders het die DStv en balkon baie geniet. Die WiFi was ook 'n groot bonus. Ons sal in die toekoms weer daar bly.

Location perfect. Home away from home! Had a good stay. Everything we needed could be found in the unit. No challenges encountered during our stay. Adrian was very attentive, and we had a good chat. Location superb. Improvements: Please consider installing plug points at a better height next to beds for guests to plug in portable devices to charge. Then one doesn't need to search for plug points behind beds. All in all, it was a good experience. Will book again!

We had a wonderful time and hope to be back soon. We had an amazing time in Port Owen. The place was neat, clean and central to everything, which was great. It could do with another bathroom/shower.

Impersonal and the height of the space is too low near the beds. No, it was very stuffy because there are only opening windows in the kitchen and hallway.

Onpersoonlik en die spasie se hoogte is te laag by die beddens. Nee, dit was baie bedompig want daar is net oopmaakvensters in die kombuis en portaal.

Worst holiday ever. The stay at Ho'kaai self-catering establishment was, to say the least, not pleasant. The advertising did not stipulate we would be put in the roof of a house with limited space for 7 people and couldn't move or breathe properly. One cramped en-suite bathroom to share with fellow guests. Parking: No shade for parking while the owner's carport is vacant and specifically indicates no parking for his guests. Staircase, not adequate. NBR. Dangerous. Treads, risers, balustrades not in compliance with NBR. Bathroom, no space, plumbing illegal connection, basin and shower trap on one line. Ventilation inadequate. Bedrooms, no direct ventilation and inadequate height in rooms. NBR. Not room, our heads knocked the whole weekend. Windows shut permanently in bedrooms. Minimum height of 2.4m for habitable rooms not achieved. Braai area, umbrella broken. Kitchen fridge was frozen up and couldn't close properly. Lounge area, no ventilation. Minimum height of 2.4m for habitable rooms not achieved. Certainly, the stay was not worth the money. In fact, this establishment, if it remains in its current form, should be removed from the website completely as it holds really detrimental safety concerns. To make matters worse, the establishment was discounted 50% prior to our arrival. I really am very disappointed in this establishment.

Dear Francois, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback regarding your stay at Ho'kaai Self-Catering Establishment. While we genuinely appreciate all reviews, we are deeply concerned to hear about your experience, especially since it does not reflect the high standards we strive to maintain. We want to address a few of your comments for clarity. First, we do indicate in our listing that we provide only street parking, and we regret any confusion regarding this. Additionally, we wish to remind you that the 50% discount you mentioned was indeed available prior to your arrival, and we are sorry to hear it did not meet your expectations. Regarding the bathroom situation, we have clearly stated that there is only one en-suite bathroom in our listing, and photographs are included to provide a realistic representation of the space. We assure you that our establishment is regularly checked by our caretakers, who help maintain a clean and safe environment for all guests. It is also important to note that our establishment complies with all safety regulations, including ventilation and plumbing standards. We understand your concerns about the staircase. Please know that the staircase is designed with safety in mind, featuring railings as required. While we appreciate your feedback, we want to emphasise our commitment to maintaining a safe environment, and our establishment meets the relevant building regulations. In response to your comment about the kitchen fridge, we would like to clarify that all appliances in our establishment are routinely inspected and were in perfect working order prior to your arrival. We maintain a high standard for our facilities, ensuring that everything is functioning properly for our guests. We apologise for any inconvenience caused by the umbrellas. Please know that we have taken the initiative to enhance our Braai Area by adding a stationary gazebo for additional shade, ensuring a more enjoyable experience for our guests in the future. We understand your frustration regarding the height restrictions in certain areas. Our listing does mention the unique architecture, which includes slanted roofs to inform guests of any spatial considerations. We appreciate your understanding in this regard. We also encourage guests to reach out to us directly during their stay if any issues arise, as we are always willing to help and resolve any concerns promptly. We value your feedback and have taken it to heart as we continually strive to improve our guest experience.

Friendly, hospitable people who went out of their way to make us feel at home. We thoroughly enjoyed our time. Quiet area, clean and tidy accommodation.

Vriendelike, gasvrye mense wat uit hul pad gegaan het om ons tuis te laat voel. Ons het ons tydjie terdeë geniet. Rustige area, skoon en netjiese akkommodasie.
