Rustige, skoon, netjiese plek by die see.

Netjiese, skoon akkommodasie met al die nodige vir 'n lekker verblyf. Was lekker om die week te werk met 'n uitsig oor die branders wat breek in die verte. Dankie Ben vir al jou moeite met my kleinkinders se saamkuier oor die naweke. Waardeer dit opreg. Sal definitief weer kom kuier by Bluewater Beach House.

Neat, clean accommodation with everything you need for a nice stay. It was nice to work the week with a view of the waves breaking in the distance. Thank you Ben for all your effort with my grandchildren's get-togethers on the weekends. Sincerely appreciate it. Will definitely visit Bluewater Beach House again.

Kon nie wag om te waai nie.

Die geriewe was nie soos op foto's. Daar nie geseëlde deure tussen jou en ander besoekers nie so almal hoor alles. Stukkende toerusting in kamer. Braaigeriewe was met gesukkel beskikbaar tussen ander besoekers wat almal gedeel het.

Dit was baie kort, as gevolg van die Vlak 3-inperking, maar lekker.

Ben het ons hartlik verwelkom Ten spyte van die inperkingsregulasies was die kamer baie skoon en gerieflik. Hy het ons 'n groter kamer aangebied as wat ons bespreek het teen geen ekstra koste. Ons het ook 'n dag vroeër vertrek as ons bespreking, en hy het geen problem daarmee gehad nie.

It was very short, due to the Level 3 restriction, but nice.

Ben gave us a warm welcome Despite the lockdown regulations the room was very clean and comfortable. He offered us a bigger room than we booked at no extra cost. We also left a day earlier than our reservation, and he had no problem with that.

Baie lekker rustig.

Ek wil nie die plek kritiseer nie, maar daar is 2 dinge wat my pla, hoewel hulle handdoeke baie skoon is, is dit baie oud en die wat ons gehad het gate in gehad en rafel uit langs die kante. Met die ernstige watertekort in Port Elizabeth, behoort hulle te kyk na die warmwatertoevoer. Dit vat baie lank vir die warmwater om by die krane uit te kom omdat die geyser baie ver weg is van die kamers. Hier word regtig baie water vermors.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Very nice and quiet.

I don't want to criticize the place but there are 2 things that bother me, although their towels are very clean they are very old and the ones we had had holes in them and frayed along the edges. With the severe water shortage in Port Elizabeth, they should look at the hot water supply. It takes a long time for the hot water to reach the taps because the geyser is very far away from the rooms. A lot of water is wasted here.

Die see-uitsig was fantasties vanaf die eenheid.

Die plek is mooi. Kort net TLC. Die banke is oud en ongemaklik. Van die kragpunte werk nie. Dit kort regtig opgradering. Die trappe wat na die eenheid lei kort ook aandag aangesien een plankie stukkend was. Verder was dit heel aangenaam. Sal die plek definitief aanbeveel veral as hul dit bietjie opknap.

The sea view was fantastic from the unit.

The place is beautiful. Just needs some TLC. The sofas are old and uncomfortable. Some of the power points are not working. It really needs upgrading. The stairs leading to the unit also need attention as one plank was broken. Other than that it was very pleasant. Would definitely recommend the place especially if they renovate it a bit.

Slegs vir oornagverblyf ingerig.

Eenheid baie klein, spasie baie beperk. Was 2 dae sonder warm water in stort, geen houers of hakke in stort vir waslappe, seep en handdoeke. Kan ook meer rakke in kas hê vir klere ens. Geen lugversorging of waaier in eenheid. Die eenheid was baie netjies en skoon, kan dit aanbeveel vir enkel persoon.

Unit very small, space very limited. Wash 2 days without hot water in shower, no containers or hooks in shower for washcloths, soap and towels.

Misleidend.

Dis nie 'n room with a seaview nie! Dis die naam van die plek en is misleidend. Wat ons van gehou het: Plek is netjies. Wat ons nie van gehou het nie: Geen see uitsig behalwe deur die kombuisvenster. Ingang na die kamer is deur 'n nou gang tussen vuilgoedblikke en watertenks. Elke slag wanneer iemand 'n kraan oop draai of toilet spoel kom 'n water pomp aan by een tenk 3 meter vanaf die deur met 'n geraas. Die TV is by die deur. Moes deur toe maak om geraas te demp. Geen plek in stort om seep neer te sit nie. Toilet kort 'n diens. Maak 'n helse geraas wanneer dit spoel. Messe is stukkend. Hef is los. Net drie verskillende glase beskikbaar. Braaiketel was baie vuil, as julle fotos wil he, vra net. Sal ek weer gaan? Nee. Die webtuiste behoort plekke te evalueer voor hulle dit adverteer.

Translate to English.

Misleading.

It's not a room with a seaview! That's the name of the place and is misleading. What we liked: Place is neat. What we didn't like: No sea view except through the kitchen window. Entrance to the room is through a narrow corridor between garbage cans and water tanks. Every time someone turns on a faucet or flushes a toilet, a water pump comes on at one tank 3 meters from the door with a noise. The TV is by the door. Had to close door to muffle noise. No place in shower to put soap down. Toilet needs a service. Makes a hell of a noise when it flushes. Knives are broken. Lift is loose. Only three different glasses available. Braaikettle was very dirty, if you want photos, just ask. Would I go again? No. The website should evaluate places before advertising them.

Ons het meer verwag, maar dit was 'n bed en 'n stort. Genoeg vir een aand se oorslaap.

Sal nie die kamer aanbeveel vir meer as een nag oorslaap nie. Bed neem hele kamerspasie op en die spasie buite is beknop.

Ons moes vra vir ekstra komberse. Baie klein en beperkte parkering, ons moes vra om buitelig te herstel. Waterdruk baie laag as een klaar gestort het was die water koud. Moet sê Ben het uit sy pad gegaan om ons te help as ons 'n probleem gehad het.

definitely not what we expected! very disappointing at the cost we had to pay. no tea or coffee and NO DRINKING WATER! we had to make a special trip to buy water. I must say that the reception was at least nice and gave us coffee and sugar bags after we expressed our displeasure. had to walk through the day's laundry to get through to us and there was an outside light on that was on all night. it was like day in the room! the sofa was so old, I almost sat on the floor and my husband had to help me up! no what not again

Kamer skoon en netjies.

Waarde vir geld. Het net oornagslaapplek gesoek en was tevrede daarmee.

Ons het werklik gerus ongeag van die weer.

Die verblyf was voldoende, maar moet definitief gekyk word na die braaigeriewe en kombuisgereedskap asook parkering vir die voertuie. Verder was die tyd was ons daar gespandeer het baie lekker.

We really enjoyed ourselves regardless of the weather.

The accommodation was adequate, but the braai facilities and kitchen utensils as well as parking for the vehicles should definitely be looked at. Furthermore, the time we spent there was very nice.

Baie mooi rustige plekkie om te ontspan.

Plekkie baie mooi skoon en gerieflik vir 'n wegbreek. Sal net voorstel dat die sitbank dalk vervang moet word, want vir 'n 6 voet man is die bank darem heeltemal te laag. Anders baie lekker plekkie.

Very nice peaceful place to relax.

Very nice clean and comfortable place for a break. Would just suggest that the sofa might need to be replaced as for a 6ft man the sofa is way too low. Otherwise very nice place.

Lekker naby die see.

Ons het die drieslaapkamer-woonhuis gehad. Pragtige ruim vertrekke. Mooi skoon. Ek sal voorstel dat julle net asseblief na julle beddegoed en matrasse sal kyk. Bedlinne, byvoorbeeld die duvet oortreksel en duvet self pas glad nie eers op die bed nie. Heeltemal te klein vir die grootte bed. Bedlinne bietjie oud. Verder het ons rêrig baie lekker daar gebly. Julle het 'n pratige plek, kyk mooi na dit. Sal die blyplek aanbeveel.

Nice close to the sea.

We had the three bedroom apartment. Beautiful spacious rooms. Nice clean. I would suggest that you just please look at your bedding and mattresses. Bed linen, for example the duvet cover and duvet itself do not even fit on the bed at all. Totally too small for the size bed. Bed linen a bit old. Furthermore, we really enjoyed our stay there. You have a nice place, take a good look at it. Would recommend the place to stay.

Pragtige eenheid, smeek net vir 'n bietjie aandag.

Behalwe vir 'n paar gloeilampe wat nie gewerk het en 'n baie vuil oond was alles verder ok.

Beautiful unit, just begging for some attention.

Apart from a few light bulbs that didn't work and a very dirty oven everything else was ok.

The room described as Room with a view is actually a very small room with no view..

For a one-night stay I might recommend it, but for a weekend or longer it might become inconvenient. You have to stand outside the place to be able to see even a partial view of nature or the sea. Fortunately, the agent upgraded us to a bigger and better unit which, in my opinion, offered a better "VIEW" and space for relaxation, the reason for my 5 star rating for customer service.

Die kamer was baie klein. Geen deur by toilet. Geen seephouer. Geen toilethouer. Geen plek om handdoek op te hang in badkamer nie. Geen teken van ontvangs nie.

Lekker!

Ons het regtig lekker gebly. Al wat gepla het was die kombuistoerusting. Daar moet ten minste glase wees vir gebruik, nie net een bierbeker en 'n goedkoop Checkers dikbodem gekrapte glas nie, en 'n pan om 'n eier te bak vir brekfis sal ook "grand" wees.

Nice!

We really enjoyed our stay. The only thing that bothered us was the kitchen equipment. There needs to be glasses at least, not just one beer mug and a cheap Checkers glass that is scratched. And a pan to fry an egg for breakfast would be grand too.

Room was private and well equipped, with modern, high-quality bathroom. A pleasant stay. Excellent sea view, right on the beach. No traffic noise.

Gerieflik, stylvol en ruim.

Dit was 'n baie lekker slaapplek. Dankie vir die lekker gesels Nicky en "well done" met die inruim van 'n baie gesellige blyplek - alles was baie stylvol, goeie uitsig - mooi gemeubileer - ruim! Die fotos op die internet laat nie reg geskied aan die pragtige werklikheid nie!

A warm welcome was received on arrival. Shown to room by Mieke where she explained to me where and how everything works. They also thanked me for staying over on departure. Will definitely use Room with a View for any future visits to Port Elizabeth!

Goeie ligging, maar netheid moet opgeskerp word.

Kar staan buite met oop hek - nie baie gerusstellend nie.

Waste of money.

Room with a view has an amazing location. That is the only good thing about it. The owner was away on holiday and left a friend in charge. The rooms were shabby and not very welcoming. Only the one bedroom had a TV. The TV in the main bedroom had no remote control and there was no access to DStv as was advertised. The second bedroom had a cracked mirror and the wooden support in the middle of the bed was broken. We were a family of 4. There were only 2 mugs and 1 drinking glass left for us to use. There was no kettle. We had to share the living room with the owner's dog and 5 newborn pups. There was a TV set and microwave that was not in working condition. The fridge was in a terrible condition and water leaked from the freezer section. There was absolutely no WiFi, which was also advertised. This establishment is definitely not a 3 star rating as advertised. I personally feel that this place should be stripped of the so called 3 star status. It is a waste of money. This was our first stop of our holiday. What a disappointment! Will never recommend this place to anyone.

Nie aantebeveel as eienaar nie self daar is nie.

Ek sal glad nie die plekkie aanbeveel as die bestuurder vir die eienaar instaan nie. Sy was bitter ongeskik en die gastehuis word soos 'n koshuis bedryf deurdat jy moet in- en uitklok en laat weet hoe laat jy saans by die gastehuis gaan wees. Ontbyt en DStv word op die LekkeSlaap gelys, maar sy het in soveel woorde gesê sy maak nie regtig ontbyt nie en dit sal my goedkoper uitwerk as ek my eie ontbyt maak. (Daar is nie restaurante/koffiewinkels in die omgewing vir ontbyt nie, net wegneemetes) en tussen 4 gaste bied hulle slegs DStv Dual View en verwag dat die gaste moet self sien kom klaar. Ook was die bad vol hare, was daar geen asblikke in die kamer vir weggooi goed nie en was die plek ook nie skoongemaak soos aangedui op die webwerf nie. Privaatheid is ook taboe siende dat die bestuurder en die opsigter instap soos dit hulle pas, of jy nou nog in jou pj's is of nie.

Not recommended if owner is not there himself.

I would not recommend the place at all if the manager vouches for the owner. She was severely disabled and the guest house is run like a hostel in that you have to check in and out and let them know what time you will be at the guest house in the evening. Breakfast and DStv are listed on the LekkeSlaap, but she said in so many words that she doesn't really make breakfast and it will work out cheaper for me if I make my own breakfast. (There are no restaurants/coffee shops in the area for breakfast, only takeaways) and between 4 guests they only offer DStv Dual View and expect the guests to see for themselves. Also, the bathtub was full of hair, there were no bins in the room for disposal and the place was not cleaned as indicated on the website. Privacy is also taboo seeing as the manager and the caretaker walk in as they see fit, whether you're still in your pjs or not.
