Lovely sea view.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at a Gatvol. The apartment was clean and the bed comfortable. The location is fantastic. The ocean view is absolutely out of this world! An indoor shower would be great though. We will definitely visit again and book the larger unit right next door: "Danke Ma" for our family of 6. Many thanks also for the friendly and good service by Jan. Thank you very much.

Nice in Herolds Bay.
Gatvol has the most beautiful view of the entire bay. We enjoyed the few days so much to be able to sit on the stoep and look out. Walking distance to the beach and the most beautiful hiking trail. Recommendations: would be good if there could be a safe for valuables and firearm. Sliding doors close with difficulty. The parking is nice and close to the house, just a shame that it was used by other vehicles, and we had to park up the hill at other apartments.

Incredibly nice people with a well appointed place and amazing view!
Since the veranda with the sea view is shared with the apartment next door like the Ingelsman's 'in close proximity', one is obliged to just look at the sea instead and not say too much. Just remember that if you want to avoid this and instead sit behind the fire and stare, your neighbor (above) will decide for you when you are done roasting and that he will come and kill your fire when the smoke allegedly kills him bother too much

Hi Eugene
Dankie vir jou 5 ster gradering! Bly jy het Heroldsbaai sò geniet.
Dankie ook vir jou terugvoer oor die houtdekke stoep. Ons sal beslis aandag gee om die fantastiese uitsig in meer privaatheid te kan geniet.
Die voorval met die vuur se blus was ernstig opgeneem met die buurman en hy vra groot onverskoning. Hy was onder die indruk daar is klaar gebraai teen laat aand en het uit voorsorg die onbemande vuur gaan blus indien die wind sou optel.
Jammer oor die misverstand.
Jy is enige tyd weer welkom om die meer private stoep te kom geniet, asook 'n lekker braaivleisvuur tot laat aand!

Jan the owner was very friendly on the phone, and so helpful, even though we didn't even meet. My 9 year old daughter and I had more than enough room for all our colors. There are more than enough facilities to have a nice stay and visit. (Perhaps just 1 request, a foldable clothes/towel rack that can be placed on the porch or just inside would help a lot).

Neat with all the necessary amenities.
Very neat place. All that was needed, apart from an extra blanket or 2 for the cold evenings, was there. Would have enjoyed it even more if you could have a barbecue in front of the deck overlooking the sea. An umbrella or a canopy by the deck would also be a good asset for when it rains or the sun is very hot. Not very pleasant to barbecue in the back of the courtyard where other people's doors are and where you can't look out at the sea. That's the only negative thing I have to say. The rest of the place was adequate for me and my husband.

Dankie vir jou terugvoering,
Ja, parkering op Heroldsbaai bly maar beperk in besige tye.
Daar is gelukkig altyd privaat straatvlak parkering vir Gatvol-Oos gaste op die erf, indien die 10 publieke parkerings verder af in die straat onbeskikbaar is vir groot SUV voertuie.
Die geyser is darem 80 tot 90% van die dag aan en die 2 ure beurtkrag onderbrekings bly maar 'n uitdaging.
Ons is bly jul het die 2 dae daar baie geniet en jul is altyd weer welkom.

Die geyser was nie aangeskakel nie. Toe ons wou bad, was die water yskoud.

Translate to English.
The geyser was not turned on. When we wanted to bathe, the water was ice cold.
The geyser was not turned on. One has to braai in front of other people's door. The power plugs at kettle, toaster, microwave did not work. We picked up the plug but it tripped again. We had to cook the kettle in room and use microwave by TV. There is not a roof left in front of the stoepie. The room's floor tiles are very cracked and broken.

Henry. Dankie vir u terugvoering. Ons wil u verseker dat ons stel enige ongerief van ons gaste hoog op prys. baie jammer dat die geyser nie aangeskakel was met jul aankoms nie. Die elektrisiën was gekontak en die kragprop wat probleme gegee het tydens jul verblyf, is nou ook vervang.
Die twee gekraakte teëls onder die slaapkamer se mat gaan ook vervang word tydens die jaarlikse onderhoud. Dankie ook vir die afdakkie voorstel op die stoep, dit sal beslis 'n groot aanwins wees op sonnige dae en deel daarvan sal 'n ingeboude braaier, ook ideaal wees. U is baie welkom om in 2023 weer op Heroldsbaai besoek te kom aflê en verseker dan al die verbeteringe te geniet.
