Had a great time, would definitely recommend and good value for money.
Yes, very nice stay. The place is very beautiful and beautifully located in the mountains. The house needs some attention, with leaking taps and it was a bit dirty and dusty when we arrived. These were just minor things and I would recommend and even go back. The caretaker took good care of us and even chopped wood for the barbecue.

Special house and view.
Was a very nice and spacious place. Perfect for our golf group and nice hanging out space and pool. Apart from the road to get there, it is a fantastic place and very peaceful.

Privaat en ideaal vir rus.

Private and ideal for rest.
Last mile or 2 do need to have a utility vehicle, but the privacy makes up for it. House needs some restoration work, but lovely farm feel. Trees can be trimmed a bit, no pond view. Pool a bonus.

Die huis is baie gerieflik met alles wat jy nodig het. Die hout wat jy kry brand baie goed, moet nie langs die pad koop nie.

The house is very comfortable with everything you need. The supplied wood burns very well, don't buy along the road.
Very nice place on your own, quiet and private. Yet near everything in Marties.

Was a bit unprofessional, place needs a lot of attention.
When we got there, the key inside the house was locked by the cleaner, we had to climb over the trailer ourselves to get the key inside the house. The place was not cleaned very neatly when we got there. The fridge in the house doesn't make things cool like it should. On Friday night we had no power through the night due to plugs not working properly. We had a wedding on Saturday, power was out no one warned us about loadshedding after we said we were booking for wedding. There are no mirrors anywhere near a power plug to blow hair. None of the doors close properly, all the doors have gaps. Believe the place has high potential, but is very neglected for the price you pay.

Goeie dag Carien,
Die yskas het ons laat toets deur n elektrisient en hy het gewerk dit blyk wel dat iemand aan die knop gedraai het wat sy settings verander en daarom het hy nie so koud gemaak soos hy moes nie, maar hy werk verseker. Ongelukkig het ons geen beheer oor Eskom se loadsheddings skedules nie dus kan ons nie vooraf bepaal wanneer bookings gemaak word of daar krag gaan wees of/of wanneer nie. Ons het dit ook so genoem in ons vooraf info. Ons het wel probleme ondervind met die skoonmaak personeel wat nie hul pligte nakom nie en het nou nuwe aanstellings en verandering aan skoonmaakdienste gemaak, en ons hoop hierdeur dat dit met toekomstige besprekings reg sal wees.

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoering. Ek sal dit vir seker met die personeel en skoonmakers opneem en ek vra om verskoning. Ek is teleurgesteld dat mens hulle betaal en vertrou dat die werk ordentelik gedoen sal word maar dan is dit nie. Die pad was beter, maar na laas week se skielike reënbuie het dit vererger en ongelukkig weer verspoel. Ons het stukwerkers juis uitgekry om aan dit te werk in die week, maar die reëns het ons gekelder. Ek weet die eienaar het beplan om pad heelwat te verbeter, maar die kontrakteurs gaan eers volgende jaar moontlik dit kan doen. Ons neem die klagtes op en sal bespreek met eienaar en personeel.

Comfortable house with excellent view and warm pool.
We were a group of 8 friends staying at Casa La Mer for 2 nights. The house is located on the dam with nice views over the dam and area. I would suggest that the bushy trees in the garden be pruned to provide a better view. The patio is nice, although a garden table and chairs would also be nice to hang out under the trees. The road to the house is not at all suitable for an ordinary car, and a 4x4 / bakkie is definitely needed because large stones and uneven road surface. Will definitely go again!

The tranquility of the place makes it a wonderful place to rest.
It is well equipped for 8 people. The pool kept the kids busy. It was also very nice to take the dogs along. The security of the place was also good. Any problems we encountered were quickly resolved beyond our expectations. My only problem was that it is advertised for 8 to 10 people but the cutlery and crockery was not always enough for the people.

Slightly disappointed.
We were quite disappointed in the stay overall. It was clear that the house had not been cleaned very thoroughly. One of the rooms smelled really bad from cigarette smoke. The bathrooms and bedrooms everywhere showed signs of dirt from some time, not just upstairs dust. The lighting is very poor in the house and one of the main lights in the living room did not work, with the result that we had to move around with bedside lamps, even during the day to be able to see what was going on in the kitchen when we were cooking. The kitchen table was practically impossible to use because the top was loose and this again shows poor maintenance. We did have a good time and enjoyed the surroundings. It's just a shame the view over the pond is overgrown and you can't get the Harties feeling when you visit the outdoor barbecue area. The warm water pool was lovely, and so in the winter season we could have a nice swim. The fireplace warmed up the house, which is quite cold, in the evenings and made for a nice visit. I doubt we will go again if the opportunity comes again.

Good day
We do make use of cleaning services and the house are cleaned on a regular basis. We also went in an extra day to clean again when you arrived. You must take in consideration the house is situated in the bush up in the mountain so there will be bugs and spiders.
All the globes were replaced with new ones but we did pick up there was an electrical problem on one of the chandelier lights which we said we will get an electrician out to go and fix.
The electric fence is working and our gate work manual (we do not have a motor on it from start). So guest can open and close manually as they prefer.
The pool was definitely not muddy. It was however milky due to the previous day's rain, but we did add in additional chemicals and shock which takes time to clear.

We really enjoyed it, it was the perfect place for our golf tour. The only downside is the dirt road in and out of the house.

Really worth it!
We were there for 4 nights and although the road still needs work, the stay there was very nice, the 2 bedrooms each have an aircon which was convenient in the heat and the place is small, but very nice and enough room for 10 people. The house is actually quite close to a lot of places in Hartbeespoort itself, so that was also useful.
