Okay.

The only reason I would not recommend 40 The Shades is because of the nightclub close by. The music was extremely loud until 2 in the morning.

Die woonstel is netjies, maar ongerieflik en nie goeie diens vanaf gasvrou nie.

Ons het die strand/see geniet, maar moes 'n paar aanpassings maak t.o.v. die woonstel. Die ingeboude braai op die stoep is nie bruikbaar nie, want die skoorsteen is toegemessel, so ons moes 'n braaier gaan koop. Die gasvrou het my nooit teruggeskakel nadat ek 'n boodskap vir haar gelos het nie. Die gemeenskaplike braaifasiliteit was buite die kwessie weens weersomstandighede/erger wind. Die geraas in die nag tot 2h00 is oorverdowend. Dit kom vanaf die nuwe winkelkompleks se nagklub/restaurant.

The apartment is neat, but inconvenient and not good service from the hostess.

We enjoyed the beach/sea, but had to make some adjustments regarding the apartment. The built-in braai on the stoep is not usable because the chimney is bricked up, so we had to buy a braai. The hostess never called me back after I left her a message. The communal barbecue facility was out of the question due to weather conditions/worse wind. The noise at night until 2am is deafening. It comes from the new shopping complex's night club/restaurant.

Bad experience with Thanusha from Prop247. Will not book with lekkeslaap again.

We did not stay at 40 The Shades as the keys were not left for us.

Netjiese eenheid, gerieflik naby restaurante, en besigheidsarea. Die kompleks self is baie stil en rustig.

Ons het die verblyf baie geniet, alhoewel ons klein kinders het en dit op die derde verdieping was het ons net altyd 'n ogie oor hul by die balkon gehou. Hulle het dit baie geniet om die see te sien van daar af met die skepe se liggies saans.

Neat unit, conveniently close to restaurants, and business area. The complex itself is very quiet and peaceful.

We really enjoyed the stay, although we have small children and it was on the third floor, we always kept an eye on them at the balcony. They really enjoyed seeing the sea from there with the ships' lights at night.

Ligging is so 800 m weg van see, moet oor pad loop.

Lekker gekuier. Eenheid 21 is baie netjies maar daar kan gewerk word aan die netheid van die oond. Daar is kragonderbrekings maar geen kerse was voorsien nie dus was ons onkant gevang. Kan ook nie op die stoepie braai nie en die skottelbraaier was weggeneem toe ek vra om skoongemaak te word. Mens is nie altyd lus om die algemene braaigeriewe buite te gebruik nie, veral nie as dit reën en koud is nie.

Location is about 800 m away from the sea, have to walk across the road.

Have a nice time. Unit 21 is very neat but the cleanliness of the oven can be worked on. There are power cuts but no candles were provided so we were caught off guard. Can't grill on the stoopie either and the plate grill was taken away when I asked to be cleaned. You don't always feel like using the general braai facilities outside, especially when it's raining and cold.

Mooi omgewing, jammer vir konstruksie wat tans aan die gang is om die omgewing.

Skoon en netjies. Goed geleë t.o.v. strand, winkels en restaurante. Konstruksie in proses langs kompleks, sou nie hier bespreek het as ek dit geweet het nie. Vreeslike geraas van vroeg soggens tot 17h00.

Nice setting, sorry for construction currently going on around the area.

Clean and tidy. Well located in relation to beach, shops and restaurants. Construction in process next to complex, would not have booked here if I had known. Terrible noise from early morning until 17h00.
