Clean, tidy and just what one needs.
Carin contacted us and explained nicely where Drop Anchor was, she waited for us and gave us a very friendly welcome. It was our best eight days in Gordons Bay. It is close to the Beach and other places. One has the most beautiful views from the deck where you can even sit and eat or drink a glass of wine. We will definitely recommend Drop Anchor and make it our home when we are in the Cape. Thank you Carin for your kindness. I miss the sunsets there with you every day.

I would highly recommend this slice of heaven.
Drop Anchor 's response
Hi Ruben, what a lovely review! Thanks, and thanks for taking the time to do it. With your camping experience, you utilized the braai facilities to their full potential. That's the way to do it. It was lovely seeing you make breakfast and enjoying it on the deck. Also just chilling at the firepit and lounging on the surfboards at night. This visit really warmed my heart. This is your second home! You are always welcome. Thanks so much for giving attention to the pets. You playing soccer with Walkabout and Angie cuddling with Maggi. Next time, you should make a 'potjie', I have various sizes available. Kind regards, Carin and all the four-footed ones.

Very nice!
We had a very nice stay. Will go back again. It is close to the beach and other places. The place is only for sleeping and showering. Makes coffee even though there is a kitchen, value in we could have just used the kettle. There is no place for cooking.

Hello Andre, ek is bly julle het dit geniet. Soos ek adverteer, is daar definitief nie geriewe vir kosmaak nie. Ongelukkig het julle nie die braaigeriewe gebruik nie! Dit is ook nie geskik vir meer as 2 persone nie. Hoop om julle weer te sien en dat julle dan 'n braai sal geniet. Vriendelike groete, Carin en Walkabout.
