Witsand 102 het my verbaas met sy pragtige uitsig.

Baie mooi uitsig van Tafelberg en die strand, naby aan winkels en eetplekke. Ons het baie lekker gebly.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier by Witsand 102. Vriendelike diens ontvang. Veilige parkering. Die mooiste uitsig oor Tafelberg en Robeneiland. Sal Witsand beslis aanbeveel vir 'n gesin met kinders. Heerlikste dubbelstort en groot bad. Geleë naby winkels en restaurante.

Geen probleme met die WiFi gehad nie absoluut waarde vir geld. Sien julle gou gou weer.

Had no problems with the WiFi absolutely value for money. See you again soon.

Ons het die beste gemaak met wat ons hier ontmoet het.

Nie soseer wat 'n mens verwag het nie. Woonstel is maar baie verwaarloos. Uitsig pragtig maar fasiliteite swak so uitsig moes seker maar instaan vir prys per dag asook alle tekortkominge. So jammer eienaar het geen begeerte om 'n mense te laat tuis voel nie so uitsig ten spyt sal ek nie sommer hierdie woonstel aanbeveel nie. Daar was groot verwarring rakende badkamer fasiliteite met ons aankoms waarvan ek glad nie op enige wyse bewus van was van die omvang van wat 2 badkamers insluit nie. Die toestand het my genoodsaak om alternatiewe verblyf vir mense wat die woonstel met my sou deel te moes bekom. Vir 'n gesin met klein kinders sal dit seker nie 'n las wees nie maar 4 volwassenes het dit onmoontlik gemaak en dit is nie vooraf onder my aandag gebring of leesbaar gewees op die website nie. Daar is geen privaatheid wanneer n persoon sou stort en n ander sou wou bad nie. Die 2 "badkamers" is maar gedeel met n glasdeur wat die een na die ander nie noodwendig enige privaatheid bied nie. Baie ontstellend dat dit nie onder my aandag gebring was nie. Konsertina deur van die spaar slaapkamer na die toilet/sort area was stukkend en geskeur. Slaap geriewe baie basies. Geen komberse wel 2 verwarmers, nie aanvaarbaar. Verwarmers baie klein en leefvertrek te groot om genoegsame hitte te verskaf en waarom nie voorsiening maak vir ekstra komberse nie. Geen ekstra moeite gedoen rakende loadshadding wat wel n realiteit was nie, nie eens n enkele kers. In my opinie uiters swak. Ketel in kombuis lek verskriklik wat nogal 'n groot frustrasie was. Kombuis ware vir self catering is absoluut basies. Vloere baie sanderig, 'n snaakse tipe tapyt in die leefarea. Lyk heeltyd vuil. In badkamers is dit n swak besluit om sulke klein teëls te gebruik want jy kry nie ontslae geraak van sand op die vloere nie en ek noem dit by dat ons nie eens een maal op die strand was oor die hele tydperk nie, dus was die sand reeds teenwoordig met ingang en baie grillerig. Hoof badkamer bad, bitter onprakties. Nêrens enige rakkie of hakkie om enige seep of shampoo te kan neersit of hang nie, bad se prop reg in die middel van die bad so jy kan nie beweeg nie want die prop gaan heeltyd oop. Die spraykop by die bad is oud en stukkend. Verhurings agent bly net heeltyd herinner dat die woonstel pas oorgekoop is deur 'n nuwe eienaar en ons moet maar die swaktes absorbeer maar niks van hierdie was onder my aandag gebring met bespreking nie. Daar is ook nie 'n aanpassing gemaak rakende die prys per dag met al die verskonings nie. Banke sit baie diep en die twee stoele wat ekstra by gebring is in die woon vertrek is een van stukkend. Die woonstel is nie soos geadverteer nie en merendeels in 'n baie swak toestand. Eienaar het geen moeite gedoen om sy privaat artikels in die kaste na een punt te skuif om maksimum plek te kon skep vir sy gaste nie. Ons moes self alles rond skuif vir ons eie gerief. So my algemene opinie is dat die eienaar baie onverskillig en kan nie worry sy woonstel adverteer as top gehalte maar dit is alles behalwe. Ek kry die gevoel dat die see uitsig moet instaan vir al sy tekortkominge en dat ek baie bevoorreg moet wees om hierdie prys per dag te betaal uitsluitlik weereens vir die uitsig alleen.

We made the best with what we met here.

Not so much as one would expect. Apartment is very neglected. View beautiful but facilities poor so view probably had to pay for price per day as well as all shortcomings. So sorry owner has no desire to make people feel at home so despite the view I will not simply recommend this apartment. There was great confusion regarding bathroom facilities on our arrival which I was in no way aware of the extent of which includes 2 bathrooms. The condition required me to find alternative accommodation for people who would share the flat with me. For a family with small children it would probably not be a burden but 4 adults made it impossible and it was not brought to my attention in advance or readable on the website. There is no privacy when one person would shower and another would want to bathe. The 2 "bathrooms" are only shared with a glass door which does not necessarily offer any privacy one after the other. Very disturbing that this was not brought to my attention. Concertina door from the spare bedroom to the toilet/sort area was broken and torn. Sleeping facilities very basic. No blankets but 2 heaters, not acceptable. Heaters very small and living room too large to provide sufficient heat and why not provide for extra blankets. No extra effort was made regarding loadshading which was a reality, not even a single candle. In my opinion extremely weak. Kettle in kitchen leaks terribly which was quite a big frustration. Kitchenware for self-catering is absolutely basic. Floors very sandy, a funny type of carpet in the living area. Looks dirty all the time. In bathrooms it is a bad decision to use such small tiles because you don't get rid of sand on the floors and I add that we didn't even go to the beach once during the whole period, so the sand was washed already present with entrance and very creepy. Main bathroom bath, bitterly impractical. Nowhere any shelf or hook to put down or hang any soap or shampoo, bath plug right in the middle of the bath so you can't move because the plug keeps opening. The spray head at the bath is old and broken. Letting agent keeps reminding me that the apartment has just been bought over by a new owner and we just have to absorb the weaknesses but none of this was brought to my attention during booking. Nor has an adjustment been made regarding the price per day with all the excuses. Sofas sit very deep and the two extra chairs that were added in the living room are one of the broken ones. The apartment is not as advertised and mostly in very poor condition. Owner made no effort to move his private articles in the cupboards to one point to create maximum space for his guests. We had to move everything around ourselves for our own convenience. So my general opinion is that the owner is very careless and can't be bothered to advertise his apartment as top quality but it is anything but. I get the feeling that the sea view must make up for all its shortcomings and that I must be very privileged to pay this price per day solely for the view alone.

Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet

Was beindruk met die woonstel, die uitsig, die sekuriteit en ons concierge was wonderlik. Die klank vanaf die pad en die kroeg langsaan was n bietjie steurend, maar nie te erg nie.

Ligging is baie swak.

Die kroeg onder maak dit ondraaglik as mense 02:00 in die oggend op mekaar vloek en skree. Inligting rakende die kry van sleutels was glad nie duidelik nie en met kry van sleutels het ons amper 30 min gewag net om dit te kry na alle dokumente uiteindelik agtermekaar gekry is. Inventarislys was glad nie op datum en het 'n te kort aan baie gehad. Glad nie waarde vir die geld nie.

Locations is very bad.

The bar downstairs makes it unbearable when people curse and scream at each other at 2am in the morning. Information about obtaining keys was not clear at all and with obtaining keys we waited almost 30 minutes just to get it after all documents were finally found. Inventory list was not up to date at all and had a shortage of many items. Not at all value for money.

A bit disappointed

Floors were very dirty on arrival. Woo set was advertised with heated towel rails, washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher - there was ONLY a washing machine... Our gas bottle for barbecue was empty had to call 4 times in two days to enquire, they didn't have it until after 19:00 on Friday evening come exchange Iron in unit also does not work. Very nice stay, felt very safe, security very friendly and helpful. Few changes Would be good, also no place in bathrooms to put soap/shampoo or clothes or anything. Apartment a bit overpriced for what we got I feel.

Dit was beslis 'n voorreg om daar te bly.

Dit was baie lekker om daar te bly. Die een blinding in die voorhuis se ketting was stukkend, maar ek het dit gerapporteer. Maar die water is regtig 'n probleem. Ek het 10 liter water gekoop vir drink en opwas. Ek het nie eens die wasmasjien gebruik nie. Het die laundrette oorkant die pad gebruik. My man het Saterdag gestort (dieselfde sit aan om jou nat te maak en weer af) en toe ek stort, eers net lyf nat gemaak. My hare geshampoe en my lyf gewas. Toe ek wil afspoel toe is daar niks water vir my nie. Gelukkig was daar nog so 'n derde van die water oor wat ek gekoop het. Het maar daarmee my hare afgespoel in die bad en die res van my lyf. So dit was beslis nie lekker nie. Verder her ons regtig baie lekker gebly.

It was definitely a privilege to stay there.

It was very nice to stay there. The one blind in the front house chain was broken, but I reported it. But the water is really a problem. I bought 10 liters of water for drinking and washing up. I didn't even use the washing machine. Used the laundrette across the road. My husband took a shower on Saturday (the same one starts to wet you and off again) and when I showered, I only wet my body at first. Shampooed my hair and washed my body. When I wanted to rinse off there was no water for me. Luckily there was still about a third of the water I bought left. Just rinsed my hair with it in the bath and the rest of my body. So it was definitely not fun. Furthermore, we really enjoyed our stay.

Dit was aangenaam, die beddegoed uiters skoon en netjies, net jammer van die sitkamerstel wat onnet was 'n mens bring mos maar baie van jou tyd daar deur.

Die woonstel is uitstekend geleë, die beddens was pragtig opgemaak, die linne was netjies en skoon, asook die breekware. Net jammer die sitkamerstel nooi 'n mens nie om daarop te sit nie. Dankie vir die personeel van LekkeSlaap wat uiters behulpsaam was met die uitsorteer van die DStv. Veral Johané sy was baie ondersteunend!

Verblyf is netjies en skoon en die uitsig en ligging baie mooi.

Die veblyf was baie mooi, maar die bouwerk en gekap en getimmer die hele tyd wat ons daar was, was uiters onaangenaam en het die wegbreek wat as ruskans bedoel was totaal versteur. Ons het 3 keer die agente geskakel oor die onaardse lawaai, maar het (by ons tuiskoms) die e-pos gesien wat hulle gestuur het om te sê daar is bouwerk. Geen poging is aangewend om die situasie te hanteer nie. Ons duur verblyf was uiters onrustig - geen sprake van slaap of lees of TV kyk nie aangesien daar heeltyd gekap en getimmer is reg langsaan! Ek sou nog die feit kon oorsien dat Blouberg Holiday Rentals nie "bewus" was van ons koms nie (klaar betaal en bevestig). En dat ons eers moes wag dat die eenheid skoongemaak moes word kon ek ook oorsien het as hulle net probeer het om ons te akkommodeer en terugvoer te gee of oplossings voorsien het vir die lawaai. Maar nie 'n foonoproep of enige iets het gekom nie, terwyl die eenheid minder as 2 km vanaf hulle kantore geleë is! Uiters swak diens!

Accommodation is neat and clean and the view and location very nice.

The accommodation was very nice, but the building work and chopping and carpentry the whole time we were there was extremely unpleasant and totally disturbed the break that was intended as a rest. We called the agents 3 times about the unearthly noise, but saw (on our return home) the email they sent saying there was construction going on. No attempt was made to deal with the situation. Our expensive stay was extremely restless - no question of sleeping or reading or watching TV as there is all the time chopping and timbering right next door! I could still overlook the fact that Blouberg Holiday Rentals was not "aware" of our arrival (paid and confirmed). And that we first had to wait for the unit to be cleaned I could also have overlooked if they had only tried to accommodate us and give feedback or provided solutions for the noise. But not a phone call or anything came, while the unit is located less than 2 km from their offices! Extremely poor service!
