We had a wonderful stay, it was peaceful and very beautiful.

The resort is lovely and secure. Unit is well equipped. Gas geyser made showering a bit tricky but better than nothing.

Als wat nodig was is beskikbaar. Skoon en netjies. Wasgoedlyn kry net nie baie son nie, maar verder geen klagtes nie.

Mense is baie vriendelik daar. 'n Wasmasjien sal beslis 'n aanwins vir die huisie self wees. Ons het die wasmasjien by die kantoor bekyk, maar het gelyk of dit lank laas gebruik was.

All that was needed is available. Clean and tidy. Washing line just doesn't get much sun, but otherwise no complaints.

People are very friendly there. A washing machine would certainly be an asset to the cottage itself. We checked out the washing machine at the office, but it looked like it hadn't been used in a long time.

Lekker eenheid baie naby aan winkels en strand.

Eenheid was netjies en gerieflik. Die watertekort aan die Suidkus is net 'n frustrasie. Toe ons die Vrydag aankom by die oord was daar niemand by kantoor om ons te verwelkom of inligting te gee nie. Verder was alles baie lekker.

Nice unit very close to shops and beach.

Unit was neat and comfortable. The water shortage on the South Coast is just a frustration. When we arrived at the resort on Friday there was no one at the office to welcome us or give us information. Other than that, everything was very nice.

Netjies en goed toegerus.

Ons het nie 'n strandsambreel gehad nie, maar die unit het 'n sambreel gehad wat ons geleen het. Daar was skottelgoedseep, muskietmasjiene en matjies wat ons kon gebruik het. Dubbelproppe ens.

Fantasties lekker.

Sal net asseblief aanbeveel dat jy met 'n voertuig gaan wat hoog van die grond af is, my kar het lelik seergekry elke keer as ons oor die hobbels moes ry. Kinders het die speelkamer baie geniet en almal daar is baie vriendelik.

Dit was bevredigend.

Mens kan nie strand toe loop nie, dis gevaarlik, dit is glad nie 'n lekker area nie. Dit het nie 'n lekker strand nie. Net die dubbelbed was gemaklik. Die ander beddens was kliphard en nie geskik vir grootmense om op te slaap nie. Dit was ook vir my 'n probleem om my eie beddegoed saam te vat, dit het baie spasie opgeneem. Die meubels in die eenheid is ook ongemaklik. Dit is ook nie vir my lekker om so baie trappe te klim om by die eenheid uit te kom nie.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

It was satisfying.

You can't walk to the beach, it's dangerous, it's not a nice area at all. It doesn't have a nice beach. Only the double bed was comfortable. The other beds were rock hard and not suitable for adults to sleep on. It was also a problem for me to take my own bedding, it took up a lot of space. The furniture in the unit is also uncomfortable. It is also not fun for me to climb so many stairs to get to the unit.

Verblyf was aangenaam, rustig en fantasties stil.

Ek gaan dit kort hou, want dit 'n stunning resort, naby aan als. Ek wil weer gaan volgende jaar, die keer net baie langer. Duisende dankies vir julle daar by Hibberdene River Resort - ons en natuurlik ons en ons kids het die tyd van ons lewe gehad en verskriklik lekker gebly, want ons het gedink die plekkie gaan klein wees, maar wow julle het my verwagtinge oortref!

A thousand thanks to you there at Hibberdene River Resort - we and of course us and our kids had the time of our lives and had a great time, because we thought the place was going to be small, but wow you exceeded my expectations!

Baie rustig en stil atmosfeer

Baie rustig, kan die see in die aande luister en die naggeluide. River Resort Unit 98 sal ek enige tyd aanbeveel, die vertrekke baie ruim en baie gerieflik. Behalwe vir die kragonderbreking is die eenheid baie goed.

The unit was satisfactory but there were issues with the geyser and hot water.

Overall a very neat unit but we struggled repeatedly trying to get the hot water running and the one drawer we had to store groceries in had an overwhelming smell of damp and mould which clung to the food. I would not recommend this resort to families who like to socialise as there are many pensioners living there and not much in the way of social gatherings.

Hibberdene River Resort Unit 98 's response

Thank you for your support and sharing your thoughts of your time at our lovely holiday home.

In an attempt to provide guests there with an ample supply of hot water 24/7 we have installed a gas geyser. Unfortunately, the downside is they can be a bit touchy and if a previous guest tried to adjust it, it may cause issues for the next. We are sorry that you struggled with it in the night of your arrival and appreciated you letting us know so that we could get someone there to fix the situation early the next morning.

As for the kitchen cupboards we had the kitchen completely remodelled two years ago and recently bought a large dehumidifier to help with the usual coastal dampness. We will assess this right away and will adjust to fine-tune the system of this common coastal issue.

Lastly, while we and many guests love the peaceful and tranquil setting of the resort, we agree that it is best suited for those that also appreciate that type of environment where one can rest and enjoy being together appreciating nature. Only in December are there often activities planned for guests and families.

We thank you for your time and consideration and appreciate your honest review of our special place at the sea.

Stil, rustig.

Was tevrede. Skoon en netjies. Is net die foto wat misleidend is. As ons geweet het daar was so baie trappe dan sou ons dit nie gevat het nie. My man Het baie gesukkel. Kan nie trappe klim nie, hy't sy rug beseer.

Als wat mens nodig het vir 'n lekker verblyf in een oulike plekkie.

Behalwe eie beddegoed en DStv-dekodeerder wat saamgevat moet word was als wat nodig was reeds daar, netjies skoon en gerieflik op sy plek, kinders het op queen size opvou bed voor TV geboer as ons nie by see vertoef het nie, lekker tennis gespeel, baie stil en rustige omgewing met mooi plant- en dierlewe om die plekkie en lekker eenkant bo op 'n bult geleë. Regte waarde vir geld, sal definitief weer River Resort 98 gebruik sou ek in Hiberdene vakansie hou.

Everything you need for a nice stay in one cute place.

Apart from own bed linen and a DStv decoder which must be taken with you, everything you needed was already there, neatly clean and comfortably in its place, children farmed on the queen size folding bed in front of the TV when we weren't at sea, played nice tennis, very quiet and peaceful environment with beautiful plant and animal life around the place and nicely located at the top of a hill. Real value for money, would definitely use River Resort 98 again should I holiday in Hiberdene.

Absoluut amazing, weg van die stadslewe maar alles naby en gerieflik.

Die mense is baie vriendelik. Dis baie stil en rustig. Geniet die stappies deur die oord met die pragtige tuine. Hou ook van die diertjies daar en hulle was glad nie lastig nie. Swembad was mooi skoon te alle tye. Sal beslis weer soontoe gaan. Die verblyf wat baie gerieflik met alles wat mens nodig het. Net 'n voorstel om miskien die GPS-koördinate vir die adres op te sit, want ons het gesukkel om die plek te kry met net hoofstraat.

I would just suggest they add the GPS coordinates to the address, as we struggled to find the place.

Beslis waarde vir geld.

Die enigste negatief is die feit dat die geyser op gas werk, so ja, as mens 4 mense is wat moet bad / stort, is dit nogal ongerieflik. Dink dus nie die eenheid is geskik vir 6 mense. Kon nie die Resort se mense gekontak kry op die gegewe telefoonnommers, moes die bediende kontak om die eienaar se nommer te kry. Instruksies om die geyser aan te sit was nie 100% korrek op die inligtingsblad. Verder geen klagtes.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Definite value for money.

The only negative is the fact that the geyser is powered by gas. So yes, if 4 people are to shower/bathe, it's quite inconvenient. Do not think the unit is suitable for 6 people. Could not contact the resort's people on the given phone numbers, had to phone the maid to get the owner's number. Instructions to get the geyser going were not 100% correct on the information sheet. Other than that we have no complaints.
