Review Summary
Lezelle V - Jan 2023
Overall rating
Uitsig vanaf eetkamer/sitkamer asemrowend. Baie naby strand geleë. Stil straat. Alles was baie mooi en skoon. Maar. Boonste en onderste deel van huis deel een ingang wat ongemaklik is.

View from dining room/living room breathtaking. Located very close to the beach. Quiet street. Everything was very nice and clean. But. Upper and lower part of house share one entrance which is awkward.
Lower master bedroom entrance is opposite shared (upstairs and downstairs) entrance and separate from rest of lower part of house. The view is indeed beautiful and the room is very large with modern bathrooms. Very, very awkward to get to rest of lower part of house. Kitchen is divided into 2 and both lead directly into bathrooms. The view from the living room/dining room is breathtaking and the fact that it is close to the beach is a winner. Beautiful, quiet street. But the layout of the lower part was extremely poorly planned and had been a nightmare for us. The entrance to the house is shared with upper family and they (above) have no door (just lattice gate) so there is no privacy and it's extremely uncomfortable especially the fact that the downstairs master bedroom door is opposite the entrance. So you first have to look out of your room to see if anyone is on the stairs and then quickly go to the lower part across the hall. If you have small children they will not be able to get to their parents. Master bedroom is very large and has a very nice view with a modern bathroom. The middle room (which was probably the dining room that got a bed) gives access to the kitchen and with grown up family in the middle room you have to wait until they get up to make coffee. The kitchen was a nightmare, it's divided into 2 and adequate but both parts lead into 2 bathrooms. If I cook on the stove I can step back and flush the toilet. In the second part, I can put dishes in the sink, step back and flush the toilet. It was incredibly, bitterly bad. The braai/small well can only be reached from the 3rd room. So you have to walk through the room all the time to the braai and back and if you want to go to the dining room table you have to walk through 2 rooms to get to the dining room table. Middle "room" was probably the dining room and doesn't work with grown children. No privacy. It said 3 rooms and I repeatedly asked were there 3 rooms because I have adult children who like their privacy and even the owner said yes. But there are actually only 2 rooms. 1 room separate from lower part across the hall and 1 room at the very back because the middle one is actually the dining room and has absolutely no privacy. For the price we paid it was not worth it at all. If we had known the layout - kitchen, bathrooms, middle room, barbecue, (actually just a small pit), master bedroom separate, we would never have taken it and not paid so much money. Photos were as advertised on the web, yes, but they were taken very deceptively, because we asked for 3 rooms precisely because of privacy and the middle room/dining room has no privacy. You have to walk through the room to get to the kitchen or braai. Very unhappy with home. The view and proximity to the beach was fantastic.
