Very well furnished with everything needed. Perfect for a special getaway with a hot tub. Unfortunately due to rainy weather we could only use it on Friday. Would suggest rocking it for continuous use (suggestion only - was perfect to be able to use). Fireplace was also burning most of the time for perfect atmosphere.

Perfect area, easily accessible, private and highly recommended.
De Ware Jakob was the perfect place for our weekend away. We were there for the Oppiwa festival and it was the ideal place to hang out, relax and just enjoy the area. Spacious rooms with beautiful finishes, lovely sitting area in the rooms, as well as in the public swimming area. Small, intimate and incredibly beautiful. Although their address is critical, it reads Vredenburg, so one is a bit under the impression that they are not located directly in Jacobsbaai.

Although the weather did not cooperate, our visit was still wonderful.
The place is beautifully and comfortably furnished. Private and clean and romantic. The geyser's hot water pump broke but the owners went out of their way to accommodate us. They gave us access to another unit that was empty, to take a shower. They immediately accommodated every request and we had a great time relaxing. The gardens are beautiful and the fireplace worked well for the cold days. I only wish the hot bath was already running when we got there because it took almost 4 hours before it was hot. The fridge is still not on either.

Nice warm nest in bad weather!
Ours was a tasteful unit with everything one could need except towels for bathroom use, which we were only informed about during our 'road trip'. We were forced to purchase towels and then also travel with the used, damp towels - an unnecessary but important shortcoming. The bathroom window handle was broken and beyond repair - safety hazard and source of cold in bad weather! No WiFi available in residential units! Furthermore, our stay was excellent, unforgettable and we would honestly recommend De Ware Jacob. Management members were incredibly friendly and helpful.

We chose De Ware Jacob based on 3 factors: 1) Jacuzzi - we prefer a jacuzzi over a hot tub, but will settle for a hot tub that works effectively. 2) Free WiFi - we like to watch a movie before going to bed. 3) Location - we wanted to be within walking distance of the sea. 1) Jacuzzi: We were in unit C. The hot tub is a complete fail. Apart from the fact that the hot tub takes 3h20min and 3 bags of wood before it is hot enough, there is no chimney. So the smoke blows where the wind takes it. When we were there the wind blew it in our face. So after 10 minutes of sitting with burning eyes and tears we were "smoked" out of the hot tub. 2) The WiFi is only in the common area, not in the bedrooms. We only found out after we paid the deposit. When my husband tried to download a movie in the common area the internet was too slow. So the WiFi really shouldn't be listed as a feature at all. 3) I can't say for sure how far the nearest beach is, because we ended up doing our beach walk in Langebaan. The owner is very nice and helpful and the property is particularly beautiful, especially the garden. But small things could improve: we didn't have a bread plate or water glasses in our unit. As we started breakfast, we realized the gas was out. Chris replaced it within 20 minutes, but you have a checklist before checking in new guests. Tissues are not a big expense, there were no tissues or kitchen towels in the unit. At the end of the weekend it felt a bit like we had gone to spend the night at a friends house. Except that we paid R2400 for it. If the hot tub worked as it should then we probably forgot about the other smaller things. And so, if a hot tub is not a priority for you, this accommodation is fanatical. But don't book it for the hot tub.

The difference in services as advertised and offered by De Ware Jacob was quickly and satisfactorily sorted out by the people of De Ware Jacob. I would not advertise the availability of "free" WiFi as an amenity. It is only available in the communal pool area where most will not use it. Would recommend that the catchment be provided to also be available inside the cottages.

Great visit
We had a lovely time at De Ware Jacob. The accommodation is highly modern and minimalistic. Location is very peaceful and a good "change of scenery". I do have the following suggestions: 1. It was not clear upon our arrival where we had to stop for reception or which unit we had to drive to. Directional signs on site will help a lot. 2. Our unit (Cottage D) also did not have oven gloves to handle the pots that get hot. A mop would also be very handy. Our only disappointment was that the hot tub was dirty and the water was not already hot when we arrived. Although we were told that it only takes 2 hours to warm up, it took us much longer and we couldn't get the water to a very lukewarm temperature. I expected the water to be at least lukewarm to warm when we arrived and of course clean. Having said that, we will definitely go back again and look forward to our next visit.

Good, but not outstanding.
Advertised as luxury, but units below average standard. Advertised as quiet place to 'rewind' while very loud guests in other 3 units took over the common area on Saturday. Hottub, which we were most looking forward to, was taken over from late morning by the 3 couples who did not allow any rest. Still waiting for Chris who received us to get back to us to get WiFi. So not luxurious and not a peaceful place to stay. It was a disappointment precisely because it was our 40th wedding anniversary and tranquility and just a touch of luxury were important.

We were so pleased that you had such lovely weather for your party and spent Saturday from 08:00 around the pool, swimming, using the Jacuzzi, playing music and enjoying the day. We would like to thank you for leaving all of the cottages so neat and tidy.
A week before arrival, you received the house rules which clearly state that we are not a party destination. At 24:00 we kindly requested for you to go indoors as the music and very loud talking was sure to disturb the neighbours. At 02:00 we had no choice but to tell you that the party is over.
You were given clear instructions as to how the heat pump for the geyser works. Had you followed the instructions, you would have had no problem.

Jewel. Conditionally a special place.
De Ware Jacob is absolutely more than you see and expect. Our hosts Ian and Dianne are the best. We felt so welcome and special. Ian accompanied us to the unit. We showed how everything works inside as well as the Jacuzzi. He showed us the garden that Dianne planned as well as all the beautiful works of art that she creates. All the units were also planned by her with the guests' privacy and comfort as the core. 100%+ for hospitality. This place was the highlight of our vacation. Tastefully and luxuriously furnished like out of a book. Clean, tidy and safe. Everything you need in the unit. Private and quiet. Charming and romantic. From the cherries hanging outside, bed hanging from ropes as well as the nice warm fireplace fire that you can light, the Jacuzzi was also a winner in the winter. I really enjoyed Dianne's books that she makes available to you in the unit. This establishment has won my heart and I will go back again and again and recommend it to everyone who wants to stay affordably in style and privacy.

We really enjoyed it. Nice beaches in Langebaan and Paternoster. Lovely boat ride in Velddrif. You truly get to know the area around the towns. The space in De Ware Jabob is perfect for a longer stay.

I will recommend De Ware Jacob to everyone! From the minute we walked in we stopped and said "wow!". The warm, friendly, relaxed reception, the unbelievably beautiful decor, the animals! I could go on and on! Everything, every little thing was perfect and clean. We had so many plans for things to do on the Saturday but the moment we saw De Ware Jacob everything changed. We didn't want to go anywhere, we just wanted to stay in this piece of paradise. Thanks Diane, you made our wedding anniversary so much more special.

It was nice, but the owner did not always respect one's privacy.
The places were neat, but the owner didn't always give you privacy and wanted to tell you all the time how and what to do. Could hardly use the pool, then he was there to close it. He kept making us adults feel like a bunch of naughty kids doing everything wrong.

Bliss and peace, the perfect break away from the rush and noise.
We really enjoyed our stay at De Ware Jacob. The house is lovely with the most beautiful decor. The natural earthy colours has a calming effect. The facilities are perfect. Dianne was such an easy-going hostess and we befriended Molly and Lulu, the two St Bernard dogs that came to greet us every now and then. We got such a good night's rest with the morning sun shining through and the sounds of the breaking waves. Tranquil, blissful, a place we would gladly return to.

Refreshing!
Wow! Diane, thank you for the unforgettable weekend. Sometimes, life in the city is just too much to handle. However, after just one weekend at De Ware Jacob my soul was refreshed and I have new energy to seize life. We enjoyed it so much I even already booked my next weekend. Highlights: peace of mind security, farm atmosphere, lovely layout of garden with local plant species, lovely clean units with top quality furniture and a creative influence, friendly service, farm animals and dogs that were so friendly to our little daughter, quiet, tranquility, peacefulness, everything you need, swimming pool, jacuzzi, braai room, fully furnished self catering units. It was absolutely stunning! Thanks to Tredoux for his kindness and nice chats. Thank you Diane. You guys are wonderful.

Natural luxury with hospitality.
This beautiful place is perfect for a winter getaway. A fireplace that crackles warmly, Karoo-like nature outside the window, raindrops falling, all makes it picture book perfect. The privilege to open your room door to let in the cold sea air in the mornings without feeling scared. The hospitality is gorgeous, and you feel like distantly related family rather than strangers on the premises. Thus you feel wonderful there. The goats, dogs and ducks give it a true farm feeling. This is a beautiful place and we will come again and book the whole place for our family. Think it's ideal for a big group getaway. Thanks for everything.

Definitely a place to go back to.
My 9 year old daughter and I decided to have a mother-daughter weekend away. The unit we had looked over the swimming pool. My daughter was in the pool literally the whole weekend. So while I was busy with stuff in the unit, I could keep an eye on her the whole time. I also swam with her and it was lovely to get out of the cold pool and into the warm Jacuzzi. All the facilities are excellent. Diane is very friendly and Simba is very helpful.

Beautiful place, but far from the sea.
One the positive side, this place is new, clean and neat with everything you could need. It is very modern and really quite beautiful. You get a lot of privacy when you book one of the more expensive houses. There is a very nice area outside which is set out for socialising and braais and a fireplace inside the house. The negative side is that De Ware Jacob is not walking distance from the sea and certainly not a "5 minute walk" from the ocean. You can't even smell or see the ocean. We really weren't happy about this. We were under the impression that we'd have a private Jacuzzi by our house and were even asked whether or not we would be using it so that they could come and switch it on for us. It was one of the major reasons I booked this place. But the Jacuzzi is shared by all the houses and works on a first come first serve basis. We couldn't use it at all. The weathercock atop the chimney is very noisy.
