Very well located and spacious with everything you may need.

Old but very clean house, with the best location you can ask for across the street from Bikini Beach. Everything you might need from plates, cutlery, washing machines, pots and pans and even an ice machine at your disposal.

Mooi ligging maar kort ernstige opgradering.

Baie dinge wat aandag kort. Als is baie oud en verwaarloos.

Die prentjiemooi uitsig maak elke sent werd!

Gasvry mense, skoon, volledig toegerus, stapafstand van see, restaurante en winkels. Die prentjiemooi uitsig reg oorkant die strand maak op vir enige tekortkominge (wat daar nie was nie).

The picturesque view makes every penny worth it!

Hospitable people, clean, fully equipped, walking distance from sea, restaurants and shops. The picturesque view right across the beach makes up for any shortcomings (which there were none).

'n Baie lekker wegbreek!

Die sitkamer, eetkamer en elke slaapkamer in die huis het 'n see-uitsig. My man kon rustig werk vanuit die eetkamer en die see sien terwyl ons op die strand kon speel. Net die buitekamer is bietjie donker. Dit is baie ideaal vir jong kinders aangesien die strand net oor die pad is en die pad glad nie te besig nie. Ons beplan beslis weer om van die verblyf gebruik te maak.

A very nice break!

The living room, dining room and every bedroom in the house have a sea view. My husband could work quietly from the dining room and see the ocean while we could play on the beach. Only the outer room is a bit dark. It is very ideal for young children as the beach is just across the road and the road is not too busy at all. We definitely plan to use the accommodation again.

Location was great.

We were very disappointed. This could not accommodate 10 people as advertised and we were only 8 - one couple had to find alternative accommodation in the Strand at an extra cost. The flat was rented out and a tiny outside room had no basin - the pipes were sticking out the wall - the shower floor had not been finished - the garage was full of building material so we could not use it at first so the tenant took her car out for us. We had paid in full in August 2016 for this holiday in February 2017 - any alterations should have been done long before that date. I must just thank Shaun at TravelGround for his assistance with sorting out the refund for the one couple that left.

Our house only had 2 bathrooms when the tenant booked the house in August - One family bathroom and one outside bathroom and 3 inside bedrooms and one outside bedroom. This was clearly explained in the website when the tenant booked the house.

In January 2017, we decided to build 2 extra bathrooms en suite to the inside bedrooms and to upgrade the outside bathroom and make it en suite to the outside bedroom. When the tenant arrived, he complained about the fact that the outside room did not have a double bed, but only 2 single beds. He also complained about the fact that the one bedroom is outside. He also complained that the bathroom was not finished. The builder did not finish the outside bathroom in time because the wrong basin was chosen and it did not fit.
When they arrived there were 4 bathrooms instead of the 2 that was advertised and only one basin was not yet installed. The 4 bathrooms are all now fully operational.

The tenant / supervisor of the flatlet on the property do not rent the garage and only use it when no one is booked in the house. She was supposed to remove her car before the tenants arrive, but only removed it after they arrived. The builder also did not remove all the materials in the garage, so I organised for them a double garage for their motor bikes 100 meters from our house.

The house was advertised to sleep 10 people - 9 people in the 4 bedrooms and 1 on a sleeper couch in the lounge. After the 2 bathrooms were installed, there are now bedrooms for 8 people and sleeper couches for 2 people.

We also upgraded the outside braai area with a permanent grass mat and installed a spotlight.

My house was rented to them at R 2200.00 per night for 8-10 people that is R 220.00 -R 275.00 per person per night. This is much cheaper than a 4 sleeper flat for R 3000.00 that is situated close by.

Wonderful position, right on the beach.

We loved being so close to a beach that was really safe for toddlers and fun for 7/8 year olds. This old house is very comfortable with enough sleeping accommodation for 7 people. The view from the lounge, dining room and verandah is outstanding.

Beste ligging en als wat jy nodig het vir 'n wegbreek!

Wonderlike tyd saam met familie deurgebring en almal was baie gelukkig met die verblyf. Beide die agent en eienaar was baie behulpsaam, vanaf die besprekingsnavrae tot en met na ons uitklok. Baie dankie almal. Ons gaan definitief weer daar kuier.

Location is perfect, but the accommodation is in dire need of upgrading.

The accommodation needs upgrading and is very old fashioned. The kitchen and contents (bowls etc.) do not provide for 10 people. Only one bathroom inside the house. The braai area is underground (no pavement) and wind makes it difficult to hang out outside. The barbecue area has no lighting.

Fantastiese ligging, kort aandag.

Die huis is op 'n fantastiese plek geleë, maar die meubels en netheid kort bietjie aandag.

We made some renovations in 2017. We added 3 en-suite bathrooms, 2 inside and one outside the house. We also have new guest house quality bedding. The outside braai area was upgraded with synthetic grass and a strong light. Some new furniture were bought including a bigger TV and an air-conditioner in the lounge. There is also a full DStv bouquet with Explora and Wi-Fi Internet access available in the house.

Wonderlike ligging, kort bietjie aandag.

Dit het 'n wonderlike ligging sommer reg oorkant die strand. Die stoep met stoele gee 'n mens kans om te ontspan en jou siel te versadig met die uitsig op die see. Die huis is mooi ruim met genoegsame potte, borde, bekers en eetgerei. Ongelukkig vir so 'n groot huis om net een toilet te hê, is 'n bietjie van 'n probleem. Orals in die kombuis het ons kokkerotte opgelet, en soms ook op die meubels in die sitkamer. Onder die beddens was dit nie mooi skoongemaak nie. Die duvet oortreksels kan ook vervang word - daar is wolletjies aan die onderkant. As ons kaalvoet in die huis geloop het, het ons voete sommer swart geword, die vloere moet seker gewas word en nie net gestofsuig nie.

Great location, needs some attention.

It has a great location right across from the beach. The veranda with chairs gives you a chance to relax and satiate your soul with the view of the sea. The house is quite spacious with enough pots, plates, cups and cutlery. Unfortunately for such a large house having only one toilet is a bit of a problem. We noticed cockroaches everywhere in the kitchen, and sometimes also on the furniture in the living room. Under the beds it was not cleaned well. The duvet covers can also be replaced - there are fleeces at the bottom. If we walked barefoot in the house, our feet simply turned black, the floors should probably be washed and not just vacuumed.

Ek het die beddegoed vervang met nuwe wit vir die dubbelbeddens en kameel-kleur vir die enkelbeddens van industriële verskaffers
Ons het oorlog verklaar teen die kokkerotte en alles op die mark en boererate gebruik. Dit lyk of ons hulle begin wen, maar by die see vlieg hulle partykeer in en le weer eiers.
Die swart vloere is n probleem: Ek het 4 keer die vloere gewas en my voete bly swart. Ek dink dit waai in van die brande in die berge en die wiele op die teer.
Ek het n nuwe 50 cm TV ingesit en DStv Explora is beskikbaar
Mense wat een keer hier was bespreek dadelik vir 'n volgende vakansie.
