"Kassiesbaai, the neat heritage site of fisher men's houses is worth a visit. There is a big hotel for meals, the fishermen's harbour, a smaller and main beach. From the main beach, you can take a brisk walk/ hike (15-20 minutes) or a 4x4 over the rocky dunes to visit the spectacular caves during low tide. A very neat, safe town with a special atmosphere - no ATM's or petrol stations. Definitely worth a visit!"
"There are no history boards or a museum where you can read about the history of Kassiesbaai and Arniston."
"It is a lovely place to visit, just was very windy and stormy on the day of our stopover."
"3 hours from Cape Town and loved the rolling hills between Napier and Caledon. We live in such a beautiful country and a road trip was awesome."
"Doen moeite as jy 'n 4x4 het en ry op die grondpad verby die Waenhuiskrans-grot tot aan die ander kant van die baai. Ons het elke dag walvisse 50 meter van die kant af daar gesien. Besoek ook Willeens se eetplek / winkel in Kassiesbaai se visvangdorp. Dit is die moeite werd."
"Dit hang af wat 'n mens in 'n vakansie soek: Ek persoonlik sou hou van uitgewerkte en veilige staproetes langs die see af en miskien ook 'n tennisbaan iewers sodat 'n mens darem 'n bietjie meer aktief kan wees, maar dit is nie krities belangrik nie. Arniston moet miskien daardie unieke en outentieke atmosfeer behou en nie te veel verder ontwikkel nie. Op hierdie stadium is die karakter nog heelwat behoue oor baie jare heen, en die owerhede moet gelukgewens word dat daar nie te veel uitgebrei of verander word nie. Kassiesbaai moet asb. bewaar word. Hoekom word daar gepraat van Arniston en nie meer Waenhuiskrans nie? Ek sou graag wou weet waarom die een naam weggeval het uit die volksmond."
"A nice quiet retreat, with friendly people. We believe in supporting the locals when in any place."
"Arniston is 'n pragtige, netjiese dorp en veilig om in te gaan vakansie hou. Die natuurreservaat wat stapafstand is, is 'n groot bonus! Dankie!"
"Lovely, tranquil place which takes one away from the busy city and brings a sense of calmness and relaxation."
"Beslis 'n wegbreek-plek sonder baie winkels en verkeer baie gerieflik, veral nou wat Covid19 so toeneem. 'n Mens voel ietwat veiliger as in groter plekke."
"Arniston and the Overberg district was a pleasant surprise with so much wildlife and birds on your doorstep. We were lucky to see the Whinchat (Europese Bontrokkie) (Saxicola Roberta), a sighting which was later officially confirmed. I will return to this area often in future."
"The lighting in the living room and upstairs bedroom was not so good but okay."
