Dit was ongelooflik lekker. Almal is so vriendelik en behulpsaam. Van bestuur tot tuiniers. Maryke jy kan trots wees op die personeel. Alles netjies.

Lekker en rustig.

Dit was lekker om net so bietjie af te skakel vir 'n paar dae. Daar was baie "locals" wat rondgehang het by die resort, gereed om enige ietsie aan jou te verkoop of te "organise". Die eenheid waarin ons gebly het, het so bietjie werk nodig. Daar is baie muf en een van die vensters in die sitkamer is stukkend. Daar was ook 'n probleem met die WiFi. Die beddens se matrasse was ook nie lekker om op te slaap nie. Ons verstaan dis moeilik om goeters te kry in die middel van nêrens. Overall het ons ons tyd geniet by die resort.

Nice and quiet.

It was nice to switch off for a few days. There were many "locals" hanging around at the resort, ready to sell or "organize" anything for you. The unit we stayed in needs some work. There is a lot of mold and one of the windows in the living room is broken. There was also a problem with the WiFi. The beds' mattresses were also not nice to sleep on. We understand it's hard to find goodies in the middle of nowhere. Overall we enjoyed our time at the resort.

Diskonnekteer en herlaai.

Pragtige plek en ongelooflike natuurskoon, maar moeilike toegangspaaie en veiligheid op wandelinge buite oord. Motoriste moet gewaarsku word dat pad verkieslik is vir bakkies of viertrek voertuie. Ons sedan het swaar gekry met slaggate, grondpaaie en steil trekwereld. Buite oord word jy oorval deur plaaslike mense wat jou met alles wil help. Nee word nie aanvaar nie. Op pad loop sommige voor uit en ander volg jou. Dit laat jou onveilig voel en verhoed dat jy uitstappie werklik geniet. Oord moet dit dalk beter beheer en gidse deur hulle gekeur word as by ontvangs gereël. So sal meer werk geskep word en standaard fooie betaal word.

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

Disconnect and reboot.

Beautiful place and incredible scenery, but difficult access roads and safety on walks outside the resort. Motorists should be warned that the road is preferable for vans or four-wheel drive vehicles. Our sedan had a hard time with potholes, dirt roads and steep treks. Outside the resort, you are mobbed by local people who want to help you with everything. No is not accepted. On the way, some lead and others follow you. It makes you feel unsafe and prevents you from really enjoying the trip. Resort may need to control it better and have guides screened by them than arranged at reception. Thus more work will be created and standard fees will be paid.

Ons het lekker gekuier. Baie lekker en veilige strand.

Die oord voldoen aan alle behoeftes. Chalets is volledig toegerus en word daagliks gediens. Ook braai area word daagliks gediens. Alles is in werkende toestand. Die plek is baie netjies en die uitsig baie mooi. Handdoeke is bietjie oud. Toegangsroetes is dalk bietjie swak en daar is geen aanwysings op die paaie nie. 'n Pragtige restaurant is beskikbaar.

Friendly staff and great location.

The staff is very friendly, and the resort allowed us to check in at 10 am and granted our sea view request. So in that regard, the service was friendly and attentive, and the location was perfect. However, the rooms and hotel need a bit of attention, but I can see it would be difficult given the secluded location. The children's room blind was broken, so their room was full of mosquitoes, and the walls had some black mold. Our cleaner was really lovely. She brought us new towels, gave us some Sunlight liquid for the dishes, and cleaned really well. We really enjoyed the experience, the hotel swimming pool with a slide, and the play area for the children. Overall experience was lovely, thank you.

Pragtige omgewing, maar verblyf en veiligheid kort aandag.

Ons het nie sleg gekuier nie, maar die eenhede kort aandag - dit is skoon, maar oud en nie op 'n standaard van wat mens van die ikoniese plek verwag nie. Die bed het lekker geslaap, maar die gordyn en badkamer reëlings kom los, daar is geen TV nie, die toilet se uitloop buite was stukkend en gemors het op die grond uitgeloop. Die plek se mense is vriendelik en hulpvaardig en die omgewing is pragtig, maar die gidse buite die blyplek los jou nie uit nie en 'n mens voel heeltyd onveilig op die strand en waar jy loop. Ons het wel 'n gids via die kantoor geidentifiseer wat oulik was en goed na ons omgesien het. Die pad daarheen is rowferig, maar nie onbegaanbaar nie - 'n mens moet maar net stadig ry en oppas vir diere en kinders. Dit sal wonderlik wees indien die blyplek opgeknap is, die veiligheidsgevoel beter is en die pad daarheen bietjie beter en meer toeganklik is. Met dit alles gesê, is ons tog bly dat ons daarheen gegaan het en hierdie pragtige omgewing en natuurwonder kon sien en van naby ervaar het.

Beautiful surroundings, but accommodation and safety need attention.

We didn't have a bad stay but the units need attention - they are clean but old and not up to a standard of what one would expect from the iconic place. The bed slept well, but the curtain and bathroom arrangements are coming loose, there is no TV, the toilet spout outside was broken and rubbish spilled onto the floor. The local people are friendly and helpful and the surroundings are beautiful, but the guides outside the accommodation do not leave you alone and you feel unsafe all the time on the beach and where you walk. We did identify a guide via the office who was lovely and looked after us well. The road there is rough, but not impassable - you just have to drive slowly and watch out for animals and children. It would be great if the accommodation was renovated, the feeling of security was better and the road to it was a little better and more accessible. Having said all that, we are glad we went there and got to see and experience this beautiful environment and natural wonder up close.

Vriendelike mense, lekker geslaap, see se gedreun pragtig.

Ligging is pragtig, pad is die grootste negatiewe punt. Plek is goed ingerig, kort opgradering, maar is vir seker vir daardie rede goedkoper as ander verblyf.

Hole in the Wall is 'n ongelooflike gesig. Verblyf was substandaard.

Ons het in 'n rondawel gebly wat interessant geklink het tot ons ingetrek het. Daar word geen onderhoud gedoen nie. Die vloer teëls is gekraak en lig plek-plek op. Die stort is baie primitief en het nie 'n randjie om om die water te keer nie. Die nat vloer na 'n stort is seepglad. Die kersie op die koek was toe ek muskietspuit gebruik het. Miljoene lewendige vismotte het uit die grasdak op ons neer gereën. Ek het dit geraporteer en nie 'n woord gehoor nie. Die goed was op die bed, wasbak, kookarea en vloer. Die ontvangsdame en restaurantpersoneel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en die geregte was heerlik.

Hole in the Wall is an incredible sight. Accommodation was substandard.

We stayed in a rondavel which sounded interesting until we moved in. No maintenance is done. The floor tiles are cracked and lift in places. The shower is very primitive and does not have a rim to stop the water. The wet floor after a shower is soapy. The icing on the cake was when I used mosquito spray. Millions of live fish moths rained down on us from the thatch. I reported it and didn't hear a word. The stuff was on the bed, sink, cooking area and floor. The receptionist and restaurant staff were very friendly and helpful and the dishes were delicious.

Hi Helga,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. En jammer oor die ongerief. Rondavel 41 is die enigste rondavel wat rolstoelvriendelik is en dus ook hoekom die stort so gebou is.

Ons spuit gereeld doom fogger vir thatch se goggas. Alhoewel ons nie kan doom fogger as ons mense in het nie, omdat dit ten minste 2 dae na dit gespuite is, niemand kan in nie en die rondavel het baie besprekings vir die laaste maand gehad. So ons kon ongelukkig nie doom fogger vir die laaste maand nie. Ons het wel vandag gedoom fogger omdat dit die eerste kans is wat ons het tot die volgende bespreking.

Ons kan ongelukkig geen nuwe teëls insit nie want die rondavel behoort nie aan ons nie. Ons hanteer net die skoonmaak en besprekings namens die eienaar. En omdat mens nie die teëls wat binne is weer kan kry nie, sal die eienaar ongelukkig nie die hele rondavel oor teël as daar 2 teëls is wat gebroke is nie. Alhoewel alles oud is, beteken dit nie dat daar nie onderhoud gedoen word nie: Enige bedrading, elektriese en plumbing of waterfoute word daagliks nagegaan. Fogger ook gereeld as ons kan. So ons doen die beste wat ons kan om 'n skoon eenheid, met werkende elektrisiteit, water en plumbing te verskaf.

Hi Japie, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Ons vra omverskoning oor die sterk skoonmaakmiddelreuk, ongelukkig omdat ons omgewing so humid is, moet ons gereeld die skimmel wat binne 'n paar uur vorm skoonmaak. So, ons eenhede is uitstekend skoon. Jy moet verstaan dat ons eenhede ouer is en ons as 'n 'oulike rustige wegbreek' geklassifiseer word. Die meeste van ons personeel kan nie Engels of Afrikaans praat nie, so dit sal die beste wees om altyd met ontvangs te praat. Geniet jou dag.

Alle gaste het gekla nie net ons nie. Pragtige baai en ligging, maar swakste verblyf wat ek al ooit in gebly het. Moes 2 aande bly, maar na 1 aand toe vertrek ons.

Hi Sarah, baie dankie vir jou terugvoer. Hotel unit 11 is skoongemaak voor julle ingeboek het. Die unit is baie oud en verkleur met tyd maar nie vuil nie. Ons wag vir goedkeuring vir 'minor revamping'. Tot tyd en wyl dit goedgekeur is, maak ons seker alles is skoon. Enige iets wat stukkend is word dadelik reggemaak as dit gerapporteer word. Maar ontvangs sê daar was niks aangemeld nie of klagtes toe julle hier was nie. Sou jy dit aangemeld het, sou ons dadelik reggemaak het en seker gemaak het julle is gelukkig.

Die lek in die toilet is uitgesorteer (dit was die 2de toilet in die kamer wat julle nie gebruik het nie). Ons is ook bly ons kon bevestig watter roete julle moet terugvat omdat ons paaie deur 'n vloed en storm beskadig is. Hulle het al klaar begin regmaak op al 2 roetes.

A relaxing resort hidden away in one of the most beautiful parts of the Eastern Cape. Ideal for anyone wanting to get away from the hussle and bussle of city life.

Our rondavel was cosy and had everything you needed. Our view was a bonus. The double bed mattress however needs replacing as it dipped in the middle. Otherwise, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back.

Great experience!

When booking our stay we were informed that the road there is bad. But no, if one uses Hole In The Wall as a destination on maps it is quite a pleasant drive, even the last part gravel road and even with a small vehicle (Hyundai i20). The units are not new, but very well-maintained, well-equipped and serviced. To experience the Hole in the Wall and its surroundings was just fantastic. We met up with a guide, Joseph, as we started our walk and what a joy! He has shown us so many of the small wonders that we would have missed going alone. I would certainly recommend Hole in the Wall to anyone who wants to have a wow experience in nature.

Good morning Tracey,

Thank you for your review and that your overall stay was great.

We do have a shop on site that is open on weekends and upon request of reception that sells the bare essentials. However 18km from us is a Mega save that sells everything you can think of fruit, veg, meat, groceries etc, there is even a liquor store, bakery, hardware shop, fuel station, clothing shop etc.

Hope you have a great day and that we see you again soon.

Lovely people and location, very poorly maintained lodging units.

We enjoyed the service as well as the location of the resort. However, it rained for three days and our unit leaked in the bedrooms, lounge and kitchen. We were constantly moving our beds and belongings around to ensure they do not get wet as well as sweeping water out that was pooling in the lounge. Reception was informed but no units were available for us to move into and nothing further was done.

Sekuriteit goed, restaurant het goeie diens en is waarde vir geld.

Onder nuwe bestuur, kan sien hul probeer alles opknap. Verblyf effe duur vir wat jy kry. Sal meer as net verf kos om ou rondawel nuut op te knap.

Average.

Close to the beach and walking distance from the hole in the wall. The accommodation both inside and outside is definitely due for some upgrade, particularly in summer when humidity is high and no air conditioning is available in any of the rooms. We struggled to find the place as no direction signs were available.

Bedenklike area, onveilig gevoel.

Hole in the Wall Resort was nie vir ons wat ons verwag het om te kry nie. Van 'n septiese tenk wat oorloop tot bierbottels in die parkeerarea. Ons kon wel die rugby hier kyk en die kos was lekker. Die bed was gemaklik, maar het nie baie skoon gevoel nie. Daar het goggas uit die dak op ons geval. Die stort was aaklig, krane gebreek en die grout swart. Mens kon wel van hier stap na die Hole in the Wall toe, maar ons was bang ons word beroof deur die mense wat jou soontoe begelei. Ons het die volgende dag met die kar tot daar gery. Hierdie plekkie sal ons nie weer sien nie. Om hier uit te kom, is daar 'n aaklige grondpad deur 'n informele nedersetting. Ek het my bedenkinge of 'n gewone kar hier sou uitkom.

Concerned area, unsafe feeling.

Hole in the Wall Resort was not what we expected to find. From an overflowing septic tank to beer bottles in the parking area. We could watch the rugby here and the food was delicious. The bed was comfortable but didn't feel very clean. Bugs fell from the roof on us. The shower was awful, taps broken and the grout black. You could walk from here to the Hole in the Wall, but we were afraid we would be robbed by the people who escort you there. We drove there the next day. We will not see this place again. To get here, there is a horrible dirt road through an informal settlement. I have my doubts about whether a normal car would come out here.

Dankie vir die e-pos.

Ons is jammer om te hoor dat dit jou ervaring met ons was.

Neem asseblief kennis dat dit nie 'n septiese tenk was nie, maar die stort-, bad- en wasbakwater het oorgeloop (soos ons reën gehad het, het dit oorgeloop namate baie reënwater ingegaan het). Riooltenks word weekliks gedoseer vir vlakbeheer.

Ons het wel sekuriteit gevra om die gaste in sommige hoteleenhede wat in die parkeerarea gedrink het te vra om op te hou, soos hulle weg is, het hulle net al hul rommel agtergelaat en aangesien ons tuiniers net soggens werk moes ons instandhoudingsman kom skoonmaak (maar het 'n bietjie tyd tussen sy ander pligte geneem).

Met grasdakke sou jy van tyd tot tyd goggas kry. Ons vernevel dit gereeld wanneer ons nie gaste in die eenhede het nie.

Ons krane is bietjie aan die hou kant en ons het vorige gaste baie hard laat werk met die krane wat tot 'n stukkende kraan kon gelei het (en die gaste het dit nie aangemeld nie). Ons wag vir goedkeuring vir herstelwerk. Ons sit wel vormborsvorm op al ons grout en maak gereeld skoon, maar die grout het verkleur met ouderdom aangesien hierdie grout al meer as 10 jaar daar is. Dus, om dit helder en lig te kry, sal nuwe grout nodig wees.

Die beddens word gereeld skoongemaak en die linne word gewas, gestoom en gestryk na elke gasuitklok.

Dit is altyd raadsaam om ontvangs te vra vir 'n aanbevole gids om jou na gat in die muur te neem wat jou gemoedsrus sal gee. Ons het egter baie gaste wat op hul eie na gat in die muur stap en geen voorvalle het tot dusver plaasgevind nie.

Ons grondpad word gereeld geskrap (hulle het vandag net weer gedoen) en alle plaaslike inwoners wat jy deur die plaaslike dorpie sien gaan is sover altyd vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het baie gaste wat met klein motors, groot motors en selfs baie lae sportmotors kom (ons het vandag altesaam 5 in huis). En is baie beter as die teergat gevulde alternatiewe pad.

Hoop in die nabye toekoms word ons 'n geleentheid gegun om te help waar ons kan terwyl jy nog ingeteken is

Geniet 'n super dag.

The staff can be more friendly, instead of just giving you the keys and you see your way to your room. The rooms were big but they need an upgrade, the furniture is old and makes the rooms seem like they are not clean. The road was horrible but they did mention the gravel on the booking.

Would not recommend. Place is dirty and smelly and the service is terrible.

Hole in the Wall Resort 's response

Hi Diana,

Thank you for your review. Apologies for your inconvenience. Due to the heavy rains and humidity, our units could not air properly, which is what you smelled from the dampness. The place is not dirty, as a thorough clean is done before check-in and every day during your stay. Due to the thatch that sheds, this is a must for us. So, what you experienced is thatch that shed and a dampness smell from the wet thatch. We try our best to remedy this by going the extra mile with housekeeping; we even wash dishes. Linen gets changed every third day and towels are replaced as requested, as they can't always dry naturally.

Disappointing service all round.

Showers were clogged and blocked. We complained to Hole in the Wall staff. Eventually, on the second night, the shower overflowed and water got into the unit - dining room, kitchen and sleeping rooms. Overall, the service was very poor. We asked to see the manager and this did not happen. I was told to use the after-hours number. I tried 3 times and the phone did not even ring. I have records to prove this. I sent an email and eventually, we got a response. I asked for a refund as there was no value for money given the huge amount paid. I had taken guests there and this was just a very frustrating experience overall. Secondly, lights were not working in the bathroom. This only got fixed that evening by using another fitting from under the stairs. The cords from the fitting under the stairs were left exposed and were live. This is a major safety breach. My request for freezers was not honoured until I insisted on the freezer. They only brought one. On the second day, after my complaint, they supplied the 2nd one. As I said, there is very little value for money and poor management overall.

Hole in the Wall Resort 's response

Hi Nilesh

Thank you for your feedback

Just a quick note.

Your original complaint was only for the shower which was sorted and we had many guests after this with no such incident again.

You asked for a freezer which I myself took up with the bakkie on the first day. Our guests normally only get 1 freezer on request. We had to wait for a second freezer to become available and we took that on the second day.

I myself the manager walked past you several times and also spoke to you. Never once was a complaint raised towards me. Even when I asked you how your stay was, you were happy.

Kind regards,
Maryke Engelbrecht

Die natuurskoon is 'n moet-sien. Die strand voor die akkommodasie is ongelukkig besaai met plastiekafval en ander gemors. Die plaaslike bevolking maak inbreuk op jou privaatheid met aanhoudende pogings om iets te verkoop of net bedel. Regtig onplesierig gewees al wil 'n mens graag help.

We only stayed overnight but were disappointed with the unit.

The unit is in poor condition. From walking into the kitchen with a rusty microwave and stove, we knew it wasn't going to be a good night's sleep. The zips on the lounge set cushions are broken and the sponge is peeling out. If you sit on the ottoman, you fall almost to the ground. The coffee table is a piece of broken counter (plank) that is just loosely placed on the base piece. There is a shower on the lower floor that sinks into the floor when you step on it. The toilet in the same bathroom has a thick brown ring in it. The kitchen window curtain has holes in it. Upstairs, one single bed's bedding was stained - one child refused to sleep in it. The master bedroom's bed has a three-quarter sheet across the mattress and raw mattress sticking out. Luckily there was a top sheet that we just used as a bottom sheet. The door from the master bedroom onto the wooden deck is not tight and the wind comes through. In the room with 2 three-quarter beds, one's leg broke off during the night. We travel quite often and are really not full of nonsense, but we have unanimously decided that we will not go to Hole in the Wall again. We took photos if you would like to see.

Foto's is bedrieglik, nie dieselfde as wat oord gelyk het nie. Oord het 'n opgradering nodig.

Lank nie water gehad nie en as jy het is dit 'n moddergemors, vat baie gebottelde water saam. Oord het 'n dringende opgradering nodig. Franse dreine wat voor en langs eenheid is het oorgeloop en gestink, het gerapporteer. Maar dit bly gebeur. Kombuiskaste is gedaan. Een van die badkamers se deur wou nie behoorlik toe nie, want vloer het gesak. Braairooster het 'n gat in gehad so groot soos die "hole in the wall". Gillies en gidse is bietjie lastig en loop konstant verby heining naby eenheid en soek jou aandag permanent. Die staf is vriendelik en behulpsaam en werk met wat hulle het.

Pictures are deceiving, not the same as resort looked. Resort needs an upgrade.

Haven't had water in a long time and if you have it's a muddy mess, take lots of bottled water with you. Resort needs an urgent upgrade. French drains in front and next to unit overflowed and smelled, reported. But it keeps happening. Kitchen cabinets are done. One of the bathroom doors wouldn't close properly because the floor had sagged. Grill had a hole in it as big as the "hole in the wall". Gillies and guides are a bit troublesome and constantly walk past the fence near the unit and constantly seek your attention. The staff are friendly and helpful and work with what they have.

Terrible, shocking, disaster, horrific, etc, etc.

It is clear that this resort is up for sale as no maintenance has been done in well over a year. The common areas are rough but manageable, the 3-bedroom chalet we were allocated, however, was a nightmare and unfit for human occupation. After stepping over the broken plank on the deck, we then noticed the missing cistern lid on the toilet which we discovered did not work. The shelving in the bathroom was so rusted I'm surprised it was still on the wall. The towel rail was stuck on with double-sided tape, so it kept falling off the wall. The water was a brown/ green colour, and stank (no good for drinking or showering). We didn't have water for 3 days and had to walk up and down carrying water so we could flush toilets. There were several tiles in both bathrooms that had fallen off the walls and not been replaced, and the doors and walls were so dirty, it was clear they hadn't seen a clean cloth in months. The roof in the 3rd bedroom was leaking so badly that we couldn't use it seeing as it was raining heavily. In the lounge, the furniture didn't have covers so bedsheets were used to wrap the sponge. The plug sockets were so badly rusted they had either fallen out of the wall or had lost their covers. The kitchen counters and cupboards were badly swollen and in need of replacement. All the curtains in the unit were about a foot too short and the rail in my room was too short and kept falling down. The grass outside the unit hadn't been cut in ages, there was broken glass all around the braai and beer bottles strewn over the edge, all of which could easily have been cleaned up. Staff showed little real concern (with a few exceptions) or they were simply fed up with being unable to do anything. The restaurant was good, the drinks were cold, but be careful as it's expensive. The beds were comfortable and the bedding was clean, although old. The Wild Coast is amazing with some surprisingly great seafood spots. The location of Hole in the Wall Resort is incredible, but the resort is an absolute disaster. I would avoid it at all costs.

Ligging was uitstekend indien jy die Hole in Wall wil gaan besoek. Die fasiliteite was baie goed en die personeel was baie behulpsaam.

Na 'n uitmergelende rit van sewe ure het ek uiteindelik by Hole in the Wall oord gearriveer. Die ontvangspersoneel was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam en ons het ook die aand lekker pizza by die restaurant geëet. Ek het die volgende oggend hulp gesoek met die vervanging van my karavaan se elektriese prop(plug). Damien die hoofbestuurder het onmiddellik aangebied om my daarmee te help. Teen elfuur was die prop kosteloos vervang. Dit was uitstekende diens. Ons het ook 'n lekker uitsig oor die see gehad. Ek sal definitief die Hole in the Wall oord vir enige toergroep aanbeveel.

Location was excellent if you want to visit the Hole in Wall. The facilities were very good and the staff were very helpful.

After a grueling seven hour drive I finally arrived at Hole in the Wall resort. The reception staff were very friendly and helpful and we also ate nice pizza at the restaurant that evening. The next morning I sought help with replacing my caravan's electrical plug. Damien the general manager immediately offered to help me with that. By eleven o'clock the plug had been replaced free of charge. It was excellent service. We also had a nice view of the sea. I would definitely recommend the Hole in the Wall resort to any tour group.

All in one.

We chose this place for its proximity to the hole. It is a pleasant walk, which was safe to do even late at night with camera equipment (some people walking past just asked if I wanted lobster or oysters) to the hole. There is a lovely looking beach right in front of the resort (which we did not use owing to the cold weather). The restaurant staff were extremely friendly and the food was good. Our accommodation was big with 2 en-suite bedrooms (great for a couple with a baby and mother-in-law), a large albeit simple lounge area, well equipped kitchen and lovely outside bench/table. Some simple maintenance would be nice but at this price with this space, it was a bargain find. We were only there for 2 nights but will certainly be back and for longer!

Absolute fantastic.

The setting is magnificent, the view excellent, the food at the restaurant fabulous, the accommodation outstanding. The road there was not so good, but the rest makes up for it. My first time ever here and we have decided that we will be back. The only downfall we had was that the picnic bench at the chalet (34) was broken and as I strolled through the resort I noticed that the electronics are definitely not up to scratch and actually a safety hazard. I am a qualified electrician with a wireman license. But otherwise, we had a fantastic stay.

Wees gewaarsku dat die pad daarheen baie sleg is. Maar die beloning aan die einde was iets om oor liries te raak.

Alhoewel alles skoon en netjies is, is die linne oud en die winkeltjie het net die basiese. Die kos was smaaklik. Ons het gegaan om die Hole in the Wall te sien en dit was die moeite werd.

A true get away. Serene, tranquil, fresh and quiet.

We had a great time even though on our arrival it was raining and the view in the car was very bad. Couldn't wait to enter the resort. The road leading to the resort really needs serious attention. That night we also had no hot water, but since it was very humid, we enjoyed the cold showers. The food served at the restaurant was lovely, but it just took long before we got it. However the food was tasty. I would recommend this resort to all our partners and friends. Thank you to the staff for our stay at Hole in the Wall Resort.

Pragtige ligging. Braaigeriewe nie ideaal geleë nie. Bemanning van winkel swak.

Ons is ingelig dat winkel oop is van 5 tot 6 in die middag. Nadat ons 30 minute gewag het vir deure om oop te gaan het dame by ontvangs ons meegedeel dat die persoon nie opgedaag het nie. Nadat ons beswaar aangeteken het, het sy redelik traag en onvriendelik daarin geslaag om iemand te kry sodat ons basiese dinge kon koop. Die optrede is beslis nie hoe kliënte behandel behoort te word nie.

After we objected, she quite slowly and unfriendly managed to get someone so we could buy basic things. The behavior is definitely not how customers should be treated.

Baie goeie ligging, naby aan strand en toeriste-attraksie.

Plek is maar verwaarloos en kort aandag. Restaurant is aanvaarbaar, maar diens nie die beste nie. Ons het in eenheid nommer 1 gebly, reg voor op die grens na die strand. Hier is ons heeltyd geteister deur die locals vir die verkoop van alles van kreef tot ''staptoere''. Dit was redelik steurend en baie irriterend.

Place is just neglected and needs attention. Restaurant is acceptable but service not the best. We stayed in unit number 1, right in front of the border to the beach.

Dis 'n pragtige plek, maar ek sal dit glad nie aanbeveel nie. Baie onaangenaam en glad nie die geld werd nie.

Die kombuistoerusting is oud en stukkend. Die bed was deurgeslaap en het na binne gerol. Die beddegoed het sleg geruik en ons kon slegs 1 gordyn oopmaak, die res was stukkend en kon nie oopmaak nie. Die vloer was vuil en taai. Die bank was so stukkend, mens kon glad nie daarop sit nie. Dit doen die webtuiste baie skade aan om so 'n plek op julle boeke te sit.

It's a beautiful place, but I wouldn't recommend it at all. Very unpleasant and not worth the money at all.

The kitchen equipment is old and broken. The bed was slept through and rolled inwards. The bedding smelled bad and we could only open 1 curtain, the rest were broken and could not be opened. The floor was dirty and sticky. The sofa was so broken, you couldn't even sit on it. It does the website a lot of damage to put such a place on your books.

Getting to the resort was shocking, the roads was terrible, one definitely don't feel very safe at the resort or the drive down. In addition the unit itself really needs work, there was mould and damp with paint cracking and bubbling up, nasty smell in the unit. The furniture and doors, door locks on the inside of the rooms could also really be replaced. The lock of our units was faulty. The hawkers at the fence was very annoying.

The area is fantastic the natural beauty is amazing. The resort itself is very run down and the facilities leave a lot to be desired.

There was rain and we had leaking roofs and water dripping all over us while sleeping and huge puddles everywhere. The geyser broke and we did not have hot water for almost 4 days. The bedroom door was broken and we were stuck inside for about half an hour while they tried to open the locks. The front door did not lock properly. The kitchen was badly stocked crockery and cutlery we where 8 people with 5 forks and 6 plates. Only one blunt knife to use in the kitchen. The unit was not cleaned properly prior to us checking in. When we arrived there was no sheets on the bed had to request sheets 3 times? Then we also where only given 5 towels when we where 8 people had to request these over and over again. The rooms where not serviced at all, bins not emptied and we had to go and buy black bags then on day 5 a guy came to empty the small bin in the kitchen.

Terrible!

Rude manager and staff. No water for 3 days and resort made no effort to accommodate guests. Chalet was dirty, smelly and badly equipped and in desperate need of maintenance. Safety was a concern. Stray dogs begging at the restaurant, and chalets at all times. No toilet paper at the pool toilets for the entire 5 days. Bar at the pool had no barman so one couldn't get a drink at the pool. Leaking toilets in the reception bathroom. Had to ask reception 3 times for someone to come and take away the full dustbin. Overall, a terribly poor experience.

Natuurskoon pragtig, maar die hele resort kort aandag.

Paaie soontoe bitter sleg, baie potholes en baie diere op die pad. Natuurskoon is pragtig, maar verblyf minder lekker. Winkeltjie op perseel het baie min voorraad, het nie eers die basiese goed soos ys, coke en brood gehad nie. Naaste winkel is ver om te ry. Swembad was groen. Kort 'n hele paar kombuisbykomstighede, soos braaitang, braaibakke, ens. Rooster pas nie op die braaier nie en gordyne het gate in. Die hele resort kort TLC. The Hole in The Wall was wel die moeite werd om te sien.

Ons was baie teleurgestel dat ons moes vra vir goed wat nie in die kombuis was nie.

Ons buitelig het nie eers gewerk het nadat ons 2 keer gevra het daaroor. Harassment van die locals as 'n mens op die strand gegaan het. Ons was glad nie tevrede nie en voel dat dit eintlik 'n mors van geld was. Die geld was nie werd die ondervinding nie. Selfs die stray dogs het 'n mens aangeval en geirriteer. Dit was glad nie 'n plek waar 'n mens kon voel dat jy kon ontspan nie.

Pragtige natuurskoon

Mooi oord. Die eenheid het alles in (stoof, mikrogolf, ens.) maar dit is rustic en pas mooi in saam met natuur. Al wat pla is die mense wat vis aan jou probeer verkoop veral die eenhede wat voor op die strand is. 'n Mens besef ook hul nood. Die mense is baie vriendelik en ons het nooit onveilig gevoel as jy gaan stap het nie. Definitief 'n plek vir natuurliefhebbers. Mooi uitsigte van die see en mooi voetdpaadjies. Restaurant se pryse is goed - lekker atmosfeer. Die dames wat daar werk doen baie goed onder die Covid-omstandighede. Interesante pad vanaf N2, vat so twee ure maar dit is die moeite werd.

Nice resort. The unit has everything (stove, microwave, etc.) but it is rustic and blends in nicely with nature.

The people are very friendly and we never felt unsafe when you went for a walk. Definitely a place for nature lovers. Beautiful views of the sea and beautiful footpaths. Restaurant's prices are good - nice atmosphere. The ladies who work there are doing very well under the Covid conditions. Interesting road from N2, takes about two hours but it's worth it.

3 weke-toer kuslangs.

Ek en my lewensmaat het die afgelope 3 weke getoer en absoluut van die mooiste plekke besoek al teen die kuslangs. Koffiebaai was ons derde stop op ons toer en so ook een van die grootste teleurstellings van die hele toer. Van waar jy uit die klein dorpie draai rigting Koffiebaai was die teerpad in 'n bitter swak toestand. Aangekom in Koffiebaai is dit grondpad tot by die oord, die grondpad is in beter toestand as die teerpad. Ontvangs van personeel by Hole in the Wall Resort was baie goed. Kamers was skoon en netjies. Ons het beplan om die volgende dag te stap na die landmerk waarvoor ons al die pad swak paaie ingery het. Ons was egter gewaarsku deur die oord se personeel om nie te stap nie, ''the locals are harassing people''. So, ons het tot by die uitkykpunt gery, foto geneem en teruggekeer. Die resort se winkel is ook gesluit. Ons kon niks daar koop nie. Ons het wel in Koffiebaai by 'n baie lekker, klein restaurant gaan seekos geniet. Ek is bly ek het dit gaan sien, maar ek kyk liewer op 'n foto volgende keer sou ek terug verlang.

3 week tour along the coast.

My partner and I have been touring for the past 3 weeks and visited absolutely some of the most beautiful places along the coast. Koffiebaai was our third stop on our tour and so was one of the biggest disappointments of the whole tour. From where you turn out of the small town towards Coffee Bay, the tarmac was in a very poor condition. Arriving in Coffee Bay it is dirt road to the resort, the dirt road is in better condition than the tarmac. Reception from staff at Hole in the Wall Resort was very good. Rooms were clean and tidy. We planned to walk the next day to the landmark for which we had driven on bad roads all the way. However, we were warned by the resort's staff not to walk, ''the locals are harassing people''. So, we drove up to the viewpoint, took a picture and returned. The resort's shop is also closed. We couldn't buy anything there. We did enjoy seafood in Koffiebaai at a very nice, small restaurant. I'm glad I went to see it, but I'd rather look at a picture next time I want to go back.

Interessant.

Die omgewing is ongelooflik mooi. Ons het as gesin die omgewing regtig geniet. Die huisies het vreeslik baie onderhoud nodig. As dit reën, is alles onder water - die water loop soos 'n waterval teen die mure af. En dan moet jy ook hoop die krag hou. Die bestuurder is nêrens te vinde nie. Die huisies het slegs die nodigste. Naweke is daar 24 uur-feeste van vakansiegangers - geen rus en vrede nie.

Interesting.

The environment is incredibly beautiful. We really enjoyed the environment as a family. The cottages need an awful lot of maintenance. When it rains, everything is under water - the water runs down the walls like a waterfall. And then you also have to hope the power lasts. The driver is nowhere to be found. The cottages only have the essentials. Weekends are 24-hour festivals of vacationers - no peace and quiet.

Die resort is fantasties.

Dit is 'n pragtige plek. Ek was 'n bietjie bekommerd oor verhale op internet van die pad na Hole in the Wall, maar dit was beter as verwag. Wel baie potholes op die pad vanaf Umtata, maar met stadig ry is dit goed te doen. Volg die borde heeltemal na Coffee Bay. Vanaf daar 9 km grondpad. Hulle is besig die pad nog beter te maak.

It is a beautiful place. I was a little worried about stories on the internet of the road to Hole in the Wall, but it was better than expected. Well, a lot of potholes on the road from Umtata, but with slow driving it's doable. Follow the signs all the way to Coffee Bay. From there 9 km dirt road. They are busy making the road even better.

Transkei treasure.

I wanted to thank the website for ensuring that my boyfriend and I had the most enjoyable vacation. Going to see the hole in the wall has been a bucket list adventure I have been wanting to tick off for years, and everything was beyond all expectation. The Transkei is not your normal luxury beach holiday as it is located in a remote and rural part of South Africa. However, the booking of the Hole in the Wall hotel via the website was extremely helpful. All the information provided was what we got, with no unexpected surprises. The Hotel is basic but it has everything you need to make your stay more than comfortable and enjoyable. Most importantly was the staff, from the reception to groundskeepers everyone had a heart of gold and a smile that wrapped you in warmth and hospitality. We certainly will be using the website for all our future holiday bookings.

Gevoel of ons op 'n eilandvakansie was!

Ons sal vir seker weer die oord besoek. Veilig, netjies en ongelooflike hulpvaardige personeel. Die huisie was baie gemaklik, asook was die kombuis baie goed toegerus. Die natuurskoon is ongelooflik! Was vooraf effe worried oor al die negatiewe resensies wat ek gelees het. Maar het niks van dit beleef nie. Ons gaan vir seker weer terug en die kinders het die speelplek en diere vreeslik geniet. Transkei, julle sien ons gou weer!

Baie lekker gebly.

Het ongelukkig nie by die hole in the wall uitgekom nie a.g.v. self-aangestelde toergidse wat intermitterend is en ons as senior burgers onveilig laat voel het. Die resort is lieflik en alles is lekker daar.

Pragtige uitsig oor die baai.

Verblyf was baie lekker, ons is selfs na beter verblyf opgegradeer by aankoms, sonder dat ons gevra het. Dit is baie mooi en personeel uiters vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Kos in restaurant was heerlik. Daar is net twee klagtes: die rondloper-honde in die oord is baie lastig en ons kon nie ons deure ooplos nie en dan die plaaslike bevolking wat regtig 'n oorlas is, sodra jy jou voete uit die oord sit, oorval hulle jou. Ons kon nie in rus en vrede na die strand of die gat in die rots gaan kyk nie. Almal wil net saam stap om 'n geldjie uit jou te maak, ons het maar terug gedraai na die oord. Dit is 'n groot jammerte, want dit is 'n pragtige plek. Miskien moet daar gekyk word na 'n projek of projekte waar die mense op 'n georganiseerde manier deel gemaak kan word van die toerismepakkie in die area, sonder om die toeris dood te melk.

Beautiful view over the bay.

Stay was very nice, we were even upgraded to better accommodation on arrival, without us asking. It is very beautiful and staff extremely friendly and helpful. Food in restaurant was delicious. There are only two complaints: the stray dogs in the resort are very annoying and we couldn't leave our doors open and then the locals who are really a nuisance, as soon as you step out of the resort they attack you. We could not look at the beach or the hole in the rock in peace. Everyone just wants to walk together to make a little money out of you, we just turned back to the resort. It's a great shame because it's a beautiful place. Perhaps a project or projects should be looked at where the people can be made part of the tourism package in the area in an organized way, without milking the tourist to death.

Skaflike verblyf, met voldoende restaurant.

Oord, hotelkamers baie rustiek teenoor tarief heffing. Badkamers geweldig beknop. Restaurant is goeie standaard en kon skaflike maaltye aanbied, ten spyte dat krag af was vir 2 dae tydens verblyf. Krag verlies was meer van Eskom aangewese issue as wat resort kon doen daaraan.

Geen krag nie.

Daar was reeds vir 2 dae nie krag toe ons arriveer nie. Kon ons laar weet het met alternatiewe. Bederfbare goedere het begin ontdooi. Kantore het op dag van vertrek eers 8 uur oopgemaak en kon nie warm water kry vir koffie nie. Geen warm water of reëlings vir stort nie. Almal blameer Eskom maar ek het hulle betaal vir diens en geriewe. Blykbaar nuwe bestuur wat seker nie weet hoe om krisis te hanteer. Volgens werkers is krag gereeld probleem. Toergroepe het gas gereedskap ontvang maar ons is niks aangebied nie.

No power.

There had already been no power for 2 days when we arrived. Could we have let you know with alternatives. Perishable goods began to thaw. Offices did not open until 8 o'clock on the day of departure and could not get hot water for coffee. No hot water or arrangements for shower. Everyone blames Eskom but I paid them for service and facilities. Apparently new management that probably doesn't know how to handle crisis. According to workers, power is often a problem. Tour groups received gas tools but we were not offered anything.

Pragtige omgewing, baie rustig en ontspannend.

Baie lekker gebly. Personeel baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Skoon en netjies. Al die honde in die oord pla bietjie. Die restaurant het teleurgestel. Die kroeg is slegs met riete afgeskort en tydens ons ete op 'n Saterdagaand was die TV in die bar area kliphard gestel vir een of ander sportsoort terwyl die mense verskriklik lawaai het, dus was ons ete in die restaurant glad nie rustig nie. Daar het sagte musiek gespeel maar dit was oordonder deur die TV se geraas. Die waitress was absoluut oningelig. Sy kon nie een vraag antwoord nie en het deurentyd gelyk asof sy ons nie verstaan nie. En sy het ons bestelling verkeerd gehad nadat ons dit 'n paar keer herhaal het. Die wyn wat ons op die wynlys wou bestel, was nie in voorraad nie. Ons het meer as 'n uur gewag vir ons hoofgereg, en toe dit uiteindelik by ons aankom, was die een gereg koud. Daarna het ons omtrent 'n uur gewag vir ons nagereg. Mense wat na ons ingekom het het voor ons hulle kos gekry. Ongelukkig was die restaurant 'n groot teleurstelling.

The bar is only partitioned off with reeds and during our meal on a Saturday night the TV in the bar area was set to rock hard for some sport while the people were making an awful lot of noise, so our meal in the restaurant was not peaceful at all. There was soft music playing but it was drowned out by the TV's noise. The waitress was absolutely uninformed. She couldn't answer a single question and constantly seemed like she didn't understand us. And she got our order wrong after we repeated it a few times. The wine we wanted to order from the wine list was not in stock. We waited over an hour for our main dish, and when it finally arrived, one dish was cold. After that we waited about an hour for our dessert. People who came in to us got their food before we did. Unfortunately, the restaurant was a huge disappointment.

Lekker gebly.

Die oord is ideaal geleë, maklike stapafstand na die bekende landmerk. Lekker gerieflike verblyf met alles wat jy nodig het. Die pad daarheen is maar rof, maar ons het dit verwag. Die oordbestuurder sê hulle gaan binnekort hul eie gidse aanstel.

Nice stay.

The resort is ideally located, easy walking distance to the famous landmark. Nice and comfortable accommodation with everything you need. The road there is rough, but we expected it. The resort manager says they will soon hire their own guides.

Ek het meer verwag.

Die pad af na Hole in the Wall Resort is baie sleg. Die diens en kos en verblyf was nie sleg nie, maar ek het meer verwag. Daar is omtrent geen uitsig op die see vanaf die huisie waarin ons gebly het nie. Iets wat gepla het is die locals wat by die hek wag vir jou om uit te stap strand toe of na die Hole in the Wall Resort, wat dan jou gids wil wees en nie nee wil vat vir 'n antwoord nie. Ek sou nie vrou alleen daar kon gaan stap nie en dit was vir my 'n groot negatiewe punt.

I expected more.

The road to Hole in the Wall Resort is very bad. The service and food and accommodation wren't bad, but I expected more. There is basically no view of the sea from the house in which we stayed. Something that bothered is the locals waiting at the gate for you to go to the or to the Hole in the Wall Resort, that want to be your guide and not take no for an answer. I would not be able to walk there women alone, and it was a big negative point for me.

Wonderlike ligging en natuurskoon met die vriendelikste personeel.

Met aankoms het die personeel ons gehelp om in verbinding met ons familie by die huis te kom, die selfoonnetwerk was buite werking a.g.v slegte weer die vorige dag. Hulle het ons met vriendelikheid gehelp, en die restaurant personeel was net so fluks, vriendelik en welkomend. Al konstruktiewe raad wat ons kan gee, is om dalk die binnekant van die huisies bietjie op te knap. Wonderlike tydjie by Hole in the Wall Resort!

Wonderful location and scenery with the friendliest staff.

On arrival the staff helped us to get in touch with our family at home, the mobile phone network was out of order due to bad weather the day before. They helped us with kindness, and the restaurant staff were just as quick, friendly and welcoming. All constructive advice we can give is to perhaps renovate the inside of the houses a bit. Wonderful time at Hole in the Wall Resort!

Eerste keer daar, dit was regtig 'n belewenis, as jy lief is vir die natuur, kan jy nie genoeg kry nie.

Ek en my vrou het 5 nagte daar geslaap. Ons het 3 keer na die Hole in the Wall gestap, ons kon nie genoeg daarvan kry nie, dit is net te asemrowend. Die woonstel was ruim verby en regtig baie gerieflik. Toe my vrou die eerste dag by die deur instap, toe sê sy hier ry sy nie 'n tree verder nie, ons het gestap waar ons wou wees. Die oggend toe ons daarvandaan vertrek, was die eerste wat die bakkie weer beweeg het. Dit is ver om tot daar te ry vanaf Malmesbury, maar nog steeds die moeite werd.

First time there, it really was an experience, if you love nature, you can not get enough.

My wife and I slept 5 there nights. We walked 3 times to the Hole in the Wall, we could not get enough of it, it's just too breathtaking. The apartment was spacious and really comfortable. When my wife walked in at the door the first day, she said she didn't drive any further, we walked where we wanted to go. The morning when we left was the first time the bakkie moved again. It is quite far to drive there from Malmesbury, but still worth it.

Netjiese, skoon chalets wat daagliks gediens word. Baie lekker strand en pragtige natuurskoon.

Ons het dit baie geniet. Die chalets is netjies, skoon en word daagliks gediens. Ongelukkig het daar groep mense daar oornag wat hulle min gesteur het aan reëls. Hulle het musiek gespeel tot laat in die nag en het hulle nie gesteur aan bestuur nie. Ek glo dit was 'n uitsondering. Ek kan aanbeveel dat iets gedoen word om die rondloper honde van die perseel te hou.

Lieflike tyd van rus naby absolute ongerepte natuurskoon.

Die verblyf was wonderlik. Daar was wel 'n baie groot bymekaarkoms van scramblers wat vroegoggend begin rond ry het binne die resort wat verskriklik irriterend was. Die res van die tyd het ons 'n baie lekker tyd gehad.

Donkies, honde, skape en 'n "hole in the wall"!

Hierdie is nie 'n vakansie vir beginners nie. Die pad is lank en beter as wat ek verwag het, maar na twee dae se reën was dit 'n ander storie. Is dit die moeite werd? Absoluut. Ons woon in 'n pragtige land en dit is 'n voorreg om die prag van hierdie deel van die land te sien. Die akkommodasie was goed genoeg. Ons het so bietjie rondgekyk na ander plekke en reken hierdie "resort" is die beste, tensy jy 'n private kothuis huur. Die eenheid word elke dag skoongemaak en die linne is skoon, maar nie nuut nie. Van die foto's op die webwerf mag dalk misleidend wees, want dit lyk of die eenhede 'n "revamp" gehad het, maar ek dink nie hulle het by almal uitgekom nie.

Donkeys, dogs, sheep and a "hole in the wall"!

This is not a holiday for beginners. The road is long and better than I expected, but after two days of rain it was a different story. Is it worth it? Absolutely. We live in a beautiful country and it is a privilege to see the splendor of this part of the country. The accommodation was good enough. We looked around at other places and think this "resort" is the best, unless you rent a private cottage. The unit is cleaned every day and the linen is clean but not new. Some of the photos on the website may be misleading as it looks like the units have had a "revamp", but I don't think they made it to all of them.

Well appointed room serviced every day. Close to the beach and the restaurant. There are no shops or doctors nearby, so you will have to bring everything yourself. The lodge is very close to the local village, but it was quiet and peaceful, The clean nature and the beach are the highlight of the visit

Heerlik gekuier in 'n baie mooi plek.

Hole in the Wall is van die beter verblyf in die omgewing en is baie mooier geleë as in Koffiebaai. Dis lekker naby aan die ware "hole in the wall" Dit is duur vir wat mens kry. Ons het heerlik geeët in die Restaurant en die plek word baie mooi skoon gehou. Bring asb. hondekos vir die honger plaaslike honde wat jou daagliks besoek. Die natuur is pragtig. Die plaaslike mense is baie vriendelik maar laat hulle duidelik weet as jy nie van hulle dienste wil gebruik maak nie anders bly hulle jou lasting val.

Had a great time in a very nice place.

Hole in the Wall is one of the better accommodations in the area and is much nicer than in Coffee Bay. It's nice and close to the real "hole in the wall" It's expensive for what you get. We had a great meal in the Restaurant and the place is kept very clean. Please bring dog food for the hungry local dogs that visit you daily. The nature is beautiful. The local people are very friendly but let them know clearly if you do not want to use their services, otherwise they will continue to burden you.

Lekker, rustige atmosfeer.

Ons het tyd baie geniet. Definitief weer besoek. Ongelukkig sal ons nie die restaurant weer ondersteun nie. En eerder alle etes self cater. Die locals is lastig, maar het nie te veel gepla. Meer die honde wat van woongebied êrens inkom en jou pla tydens etes. Die Hole in the Wall is iets om te sien. Ons sal dit as 'n moet-sien aanbeveel.

The locals are a petulant but they didn't bother too much. More the dogs that come in from a suburb and bother you while you are eating. The Hole in the Wall is something to see. We will recommend it as a must see.

Glad nie aan te bevele nie! Het onveilig gevoel.

Die pad is baie swak en glad nie aan te bevele vir 'n gewone sedanmotor nie. Die hele oord is omhein, maar om by die strand of die Hole-in-Wall te besigtig moet jy uit die oord loop waar jy oorval word deur jong nie-werkende plaaslikes. Daar is nie begeleide ekskursies deur die oord nie. 'n Groot teleurstelling! Rondloperhonde kom val jou ook lastig by jou akkommodasie in die oord. 'n Groot jammerte oor die rommel by die pragtige Hole-in-wall asook die werkloses wat daar rondstaan. Apparate vir kinders ook vervalle.

Not recommended at all! Felt unsafe.

The road is very poor and not at all to be recommended for an ordinary sedan car. The whole resort is fenced, but to view at the beach or the Hole-in-Wall you have to walk out of the resort where you are mobbed by young non-working locals. There are no guided tours of the resort. A big disappointment! Stray dogs also bother you at your accommodation in the resort. A great pity about the rubbish at the beautiful Hole-in-wall as well as the unemployed people standing around there. Devices for children also obsolete.

Staying at the Hole in Wall was rejuvenating and I can't wait to go back!

Make sure you take a bag of sweets with for the local kids on the last bit of road before the resort. The accommodation was lovely and clean. Felt like home away from home. All the staff there are very friendly and very helpful. Would like to especially thank Liso, he was our bartender most of the time and kept the drinks coming. The night we had the seafood braai was magical, worth every cent! The restaurant makes amazing burgers! I especially enjoyed the Hole in the Wall breakfast, breakfast for champions! Taking the walk to the Hole in wall was very special to us, had been waiting 3 months to finally go and see it and it was everything we were hoping it would be. I cannot wait to go back and relive the magic that my husband and I experienced. Thank you.

Netjies en skoon. Die beddens was net 'n bietjie te sag. Miskien moet hulle oorweeg om stewiger matrasse in te sit. Dit is regtig 'n pragtige oord met genoeg geriewe. Die spa was heerlik! Personeel vriendelik en hulle diens was baie goed. Natuurlik het die "Hole in the Wall" nie teleurgestel nie. Absoluut die moeite werd. Die mooiste natuur!

I enjoyed my stay. We ordered pizza at the restaurant and it was delicious.

Hole in the Wall is the most beautiful place in South Africa. I think most people don't know about or at least visited the place. I enjoyed my stay at the resort and it is right next to the beach. It is breathtaking what nature has offered us as a gift to enjoy and best part of it all is it's free. I think South African tourism doesn't do justice to this place.

Stil en afgeleë in 'n rustige omgewing.

Goed vir ontspanning en rus met uitgesoekte aktiwiteite. Ontvangs is maklik en vriendelik. Verblyf is eenvoudig dog gemaklik en baie ruim en gerieflik met al die nodige toerusting. Die aktiwiteite is uitgesoek en vir die inwoners. Die omgewing is uitdagend, maar vertroostend en beeldskoon. Die oord is netjies onderhou en goed beheer behalwe vir die plaaslike inwoners wat soms lastig kan wees.

Baie mooi omgewing!

Die pad na Koffiebaai is volgens die aanwysings op hulle besprekingspapier alleenlik bereikbaar met 'n SUV of bakkie, maar dit word nêrens vermeld nie. Op die strand word jy gepla deur mense wat jou naar die Hole in the Wall wil bring of van alles wil verkoop. Als je van Gauteng kom, maak dit jou bang. Restourant was baie goed. Maar ons sal nie weer gaan. LekkeSlaap se diens was baie goed. Dankie.
