Rustig en ontspanne.

Dit was 'n heerlike wegbreek.

It was safe and easy to get to.

Was disappointed that we did not have a sea view and the beach is not just 600 meters as advertised. The accommodation was good and will definitely use this place again.

Baie rustig, ontspannende gevoel, hoogs aanbeveel.

Die hele woonstelkompleks is baie rustig, presies wat ons nodig gehad het. Willard Strand is in loopafstand en Thomsons Strand is 'n skrale 3 minute se ry weg. Die woonstel is netjies, goed onderhou en snoesig. Die mense wat ons ontmoet het in die kompleks was baie vriendelik. Die woonstel is beter as wat die foto's wys. Die area in die woonstel is baie ruim weens die deure wat van die slaapkamer en sitkamer op die stoep uitloop, als is baie privaat.

Very peaceful, relaxing feeling, highly recommended.

The whole apartment complex is very peaceful, exactly what we needed. Willard Beach is within walking distance and Thomsons Beach is a short 3 minute drive away. The apartment is neat, well maintained and cozy. The people we met in the complex were very friendly. The apartment is better than the pictures show. The area in the apartment is very spacious due to the doors leading from the bedroom and living room onto the veranda, although very private.

Dit was 'n baie lekker tydjie weg van al die gejaag in JHB.

Ek sal een voorstel maak, om die sitkamerstel te vervang. Dit is regtig baie oud en lyk glad nie meer in 'n baie goeie toestand nie. Ek wil net 'n lap oorgooi, want dit voel baie vuil met al die krake in die leer, en ek voel glad nie gemaklik om daarop te sit nie. Dit is wat my afgesit het van die plek, ek het dit ook so op die fotos gesien en gehoop dit sou beter lyk as ek daar kom, maar het erger gelyk. Die foto's is goed en reg, maar iets wat my mislei het is dat dit gevoel het of my plekkie op die swembad uitkyk en die braai sommer net daar naby jou is. Dit is bietjie misleidend. Ek sal op die advertensie net mooi stippuleer dat dit op die 2de vloer is en dat daar geen see-uitsig is nie.

It was a very nice time away from all the hustle and bustle in JHB.

I would make one suggestion, to replace the living room set. It is really very old and doesn't seem to be in very good condition anymore. I just want to throw a cloth over it because it feels very dirty with all the cracks in the leather, and I don't feel comfortable sitting on it at all. This is what put me off the place, I also saw it like that in the photos and hoped it would look better when I got there, but it looked worse. The photos are all well and good, but something that misled me is that it felt like my place looked out on the pool and the braai was right there near you. This is a bit misleading. I would just state on the ad that it is on the 2nd floor and that there is no sea view.

Comfortable, lovely pool and braai area.

I think the unit should be advertised as Villa Med, rather than Dolphin Escapes. That way a potential rentor will be aware that the unit is within a large complex of units. This was unexpected to me.

Clean place, close to everything and very peaceful.

I liked the place, it was everything we needed, relaxing, peaceful, malls, pools, braai place and beach. I would definitely come back soon.

Die verblyf was lekker, maar diens op woonstel sleg.

Wasmasjien het die klere beskadig.

Dolphin Escapes 's response

Hi Johandre, We are really sorry that some of your clothing was discoloured. It appears that you selected a machine setting called ''Shirts" for your T-shirts which sets the washing machine at a temperature of 60 degrees, far too high for most washes. We would recommend the 'Daily Wash' setting which is 30 degrees. We look forward to seeing you and Chantel again soon and wish you all the best for the festive season. Kind regards, Janice
