Pragtige uitsig en rustig.

Verskriklik lekker, mooiste uitsig oor die see. My man het heerlik vis gevang.

Blou verander in geel.

Pragtige gesellige huisie. Loop afstand van see en naaste afhaalplek, maar ryafstand van swemstrand. Speletjies in die kas vir die reënerige dae was 'n wenner.

Blue turns to yellow.

Beautiful cozy house. Walking distance from sea and nearest pick-up point, but driving distance from swimming beach. Games in the closet for the rainy days was a winner.

Baie mooi uitsig.

1. Ligging is fantasties. 2. Beddens slaap glad nie lekker nie. Oud en moet vervang word met behoorlike beddens en beddegoed. 3. Badkamer moet vir seker oorgedoen word. In 'n walglike toestand. Stortgordyn is te kort vir bad so water stroom op vloer af. WiFi netwerk was nie heeltyd beskikbaar nie.

Very nice view.

1. Location is fantastic. 2. Beds do not sleep well at all. Old and should be replaced with proper beds and bedding. 3. Bathroom needs redoing for sure. In a disgusting state. Shower curtain is too short for bath so water flows down on floor. WiFi network was not available all the time.

The Blue House (December 2022 - January 2023).

We went to “Die Blou Huisie” for the first time, with our furry kids. Where does one start? What a homely place to spend a holiday. The Huisie accommodated all requirements that one looks for (i.e. blankets, towels, cutlery, washing machine, tumble dryer, etc.). Lovely braai areas, one at the back of the Huisie and one in the front with one amazing view. The back of the Huisie has a lekker kuier area if it rains, and the front has a little stoepie you can sit at and look at the view. The house is very secure for your furry kids, no worries if you have to quickly pop out without your furry kids. There are two beaches within walking distance from the huisie which are both dog-friendly. The one is a swimming beach, with lifeguards etc. There is also a lovely pub and grill (also walking distance) from the Huisie, called the Dolphin Pub & Grill. There is a proper Super Spar, with all your essentials, etc. in Port Edward itself (about 6 kms away) from the Huisie, as well as Mac Banana, which is about 8 kms from the Huisie where you can go do some shopping, get a few gifts, there are restaurants, but what we can definitely recommend is their pancakes (it is actually a must!). We definitely had an amazing and memorable time, and will definitely be back again! We also definitely recommend it to other families, with furry kids. Thank you!

Wonderlike kuier met 'n uitsig op die see.

Dis 'n lieflike huis. Die erf is omhein, alhoewel nie baie stewig nie voel mens darem veiliger. Daar is 'n pragtige uitsig van die huis op die see. As mens by die deur inkom is daar 'n slaapkamer links met 'n uitsig op die see. Die area voor en regs is 'n groot leefarea met 2 beddens, 'n eetkamertafel en banke, als met 'n uitsig op die see. Verder af aan die linkerkant is die tweede slaapkamer en langs hom die badkamer. Dis kombuis is regs agter en lekker groot. Die plekkie was baie skoon en uitstekend toegerus. Verskillende stoele, bordspeletjies, kussings, komberse, vadoeke, bakke, potte, en selfs plastiekeetware wat my twee-jarige kon gebruik. Daar is boeke en skilderye en dit voel soos 'n huis. Die lig van die bure het effens gepla maar dit kan reggemaak word met blockout gordyne. Die hoofslaapkamer se een muur gaan nie reg tot teen die dak nie maar dit het ons nie gepla nie. Die huisie is baie goed geleë tussen Glenmore (loopafstand) en Kidds Beach (nie te ver nie). Kidds Beach was veral lekker vir my ouers want daar was nie trappe om te klim nie. Dis lekker naby na MacBanana toe en ons was 'n klompie keer daar. Ons sal beslis weer en weer wil teruggaan.

Wonderful visit with a view of the sea.

It's a lovely house. The yard is fenced, although not very firmly, at least you feel safer. There is a beautiful view from the house on the sea. When you enter the door there is a bedroom on the left with a view of the sea. The area in front and to the right is a large living area with 2 beds, a dining table and sofas, all with a view of the sea. Further down on the left is the second bedroom and next to it the bathroom. It's kitchen is at the back right and nice and big. The place was very clean and excellently equipped. Different chairs, board games, pillows, blankets, dish towels, bowls, pots, and even plastic dinnerware that my two year old could use. There are books and paintings and it feels like a home. The light from the neighbors was a little annoying but this can be fixed with blackout curtains. The main bedroom's one wall doesn't go right up to the roof, but that didn't bother us. The cottage is very well located between Glenmore (walking distance) and Kidds Beach (not too far). Kidds Beach was especially nice for my parents because there were no stairs to climb. It's nice and close to MacBanana and we've been there quite a few times. We will definitely want to go back again and again.

Dankie, Steps. Die Wi-Fi in die area is onbetroubaar. Die Blou Huisie het Wi-Fi maar omdat ons nie kan waarborg dat die toevoer in die area betroubaar is nie lys ons dit nie as deel van die advertensie nie. Daar is tye wat dit baie goed werk, en tye wat dit ongelukkig nie die geval is nie. Dit is ongelukkig buite ons beheer.

Ons het die tyd van ons lewens gehad!

Baie lekker. Goed ingerig. Was lekker om ons hondekind saam te kon neem en te weet dat hy nie sommer kon uitkom nie. Enigste ding wat so bietjie van 'n probleem was is die oprit is nie geskik vir baie lae voertuie nie.

Very nice. Well appointed. It was nice to be able to take our dog child with us and know that he couldn't just get out. Only thing that was a bit of a problem is the ramp is not suitable for very low vehicles.

It would be cramped if the other section of the house had guests. Privacy issues.

He said it was well-equipped, but would feel very cramped should there have been another crowd in the adjoining main house. Oh, and no privacy, the wall between the 2 bedrooms only goes three-quarters of the way to the ceiling.

Die Blou Huisie 's response

As advised prior to your stay- there would only be one set of guests on the property at the time. The second unit is not rented out. Your concerns of the property being cramped if there would be other guests would therefore not materialise.

Heerlik, rustig, gerieflik en pragtige uitsig.

Ek en my ma en hondjie het in hierdie plekkie tuisgegaan. Dit was 'n heerlike ervaring. Lekker naby aan die strand. Die huisie het alles wat 'n mens kan nodig kry, en was baie gerieflik. Dit is beslis 'n plus dat dit so mooi omhein is, sodat mens se honde-kind vrylik kan rondloop. Ek sal dalk net voorstel dat daar ook 'n TV in die huisie gesit word. Nie dat ons een gemis het nie, maar dit kan baie stil raak.

Lovely, peaceful, comfortable and beautiful view.

My mother and dog and I stayed in this little place. It was a lovely experience. Nice close to the beach. The cottage has everything one could need, and was very comfortable. It is definitely a plus that it is so nicely fenced, so that one's canine child can roam freely. I might just suggest putting a TV in the cottage as well. Not that we missed one, but it can get very quiet.

Fantasties en gemaklik

Dit was awsome om daar te gebly het en baie gerieflik. Daar is alles wat jy nodig het en is ’n kort stap na die strand. Dis ook die eerste keer dat ons honde kinders vry kon loop sonder om heeltyd aan hul leibande te wees, want die braai-area is mooi toegespan. Hierdie is ’n baie nice plekkie. Keep up the excellent work! Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel.

Fantastic and comfortable

It was awsome to stay there and very comfortable. There is everything you need and is a short walk to the beach. It's also the first time that our dogs and children were able to walk freely without being on their leashes all the time, because the braai area is well cordoned off. This is a very nice place. Keep up the excellent work! Would recommend anytime.

Dierbare huisie, gasvrye eienaars, heerlik.

Die huisie is oulik en vriendelik gedekoreer en troeteldiervriendelik. Sal beslis weer wil besoek en dalk hierdie keer ons vierpoot-kindertjies wil saambring. Lekker om op die stoepie te sit en oor die see te kyk.
