Baie teleurstellend, want die ligging was perfek.

Die ligging is perfek, maar die plek val uit mekaar en die foto's is glad nie hoe dit daar lyk nie. Ek stel voor die foto's word geupdate op die webwerf.

Very disappointing as the location was perfect.

The location is perfect, but the place falls apart and the pictures are not at all what it looks like there. I suggest the photos be updated on the website.

Look for other options.

Best spot on the beach, and that is where it ends. Very outdated compared to surrounding houses. You have to pay an additional R2500 'breakage fee'. With this said, they did not even supply a checklist to confirm breakage. Still waiting for my deposit to be refunded after 10 days.

Blue Whale Way 's response

We are sorry that you did not like your holiday and house. It was the first build in 95 to the design manual. The developer wanted the front beach houses to look like the beach, blending with nature: wood, low and narrow so the back people can see the water. Not villas to show off. This was later changed to be a bit more modern. Please look at the other reviews. KykNet and ADR TV made films there, and we agreed not to paint for another film coming (for the Patina). Be our guest for another weekend to try and view it with other eyes.
(The deposit I paid back the same day I got your bank details).

Die strand en see is op jou voordeur.

Blue Whale Way het 'n naweek soos 'n hele vakansie laat voel. Sal beslis weer gaan.

Truly rustic beach home.

Unique location on the beach with 180 degrees view of the ocean, including Noordhoek and Hout Bay.

Die foto's op die page is ou foto's en die plek lyk lankal nie meer so nie.

Die plek is vuil en die gordyne hang in flardes. Die stoof is jare laas skoongemaak. Die plek is vuil en die toilet lek, mens kan sien dit lek ook al maande. Die vloer agter die toilet is al vrot. Vir R2000 per nag verwag ek 'n skoon plek!

The photos on the page are old photos and the place has not looked like that for a long time.

The place is dirty and the curtains hang in tatters. The stove has not been cleaned in years. The place is dirty and the toilet leaks, you can see it has been leaking for months. The floor behind the toilet is already rotten. For R2000 per night I expect a clean place!

I have travelled all over the world and the only place I had a similar fantastic rest was in Phi Phi Islands. I will return to Blue Whale every opportunity I get.

The house is perfectly situated, it is quiet around the house. The sea sand is literally on the porch and the view is spectacular. The sound of the waves crashing is a lullaby and the evening outside is to write songs about. A spectacular place to go, value for money and the hosts are the most amazing couple. Thank you Mielke and Dieter for sharing your paradise with us.

Asemrowend, in die natuur se stilte toegevou!

Ongelooflike ligging! Pragtige see en sand tot binne in jou sitkamer, ongerepte natuurskoon. Onbeskryflike memories! 'n Moet vir elke gesin wat smag na stilte en rustigheid!

Rustig, rustiek en letterlik op die strand. Die perfekte plek om niks te gaan doen nie. Ons het heerlik ontspan.

Ons het gegaan met die doel om te ontspan en niks te doen die: dit is die perfekte plek om dit te doen. Stap op die strand en sit op die stoep - die perfekte ontspanning.

Quiet, rustic and literally on the beach. The perfect place to do nothing. We had a great time relaxing.

We went with the intention of relaxing and doing nothing: this is the perfect place to do it. Walk on the beach and sit on the porch - the perfect relaxation.

Beautiful location, but the house needs attention.

There is no DStv or internet. Well great location, but the house needs a good cleaning before guests enter.

Op die sand!

'n Plek om by die see te wees. 'n Plek om die see te ervaar. 'n Plek vanwaar Houtbaai gesien kan word. 'n Plek om Long Beach te betree.

On the beach!

A place to be at the beach. A place to experience the ocean. A place from where Hout Bay can be seen. A place to enter Long Beach.
