Fantastic, I will definitely go again. I especially enjoy the pool on the porch.
Very nice, the place is fantastic. Unfortunately, the house is being built for that and the machines used by the builders were very noisy until late Saturday afternoon. Just hope the owners know their seaview is being taken away. Otherwise, our stay was very nice and we will definitely book the house again in the future.

We had a great time, the house is definitely an "entertainer's dream" with several places throughout the house to socialize and a large kitchen. The pool and lawn are a big plus. Maryna was very helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. Definitely a place I can recommend.

We had a great stay, everything was of high quality. The neighborhood is safe and quiet. The lady who received us was very pleasant, but her husband has no way of speaking. He is very arrogant and has no customer relationship. But apart from all that, we really enjoyed it. Thank you very much.

It was really nice in that lovely house with all its amenities inside and out.
Now it's a place you can go and enjoy yourself regardless of the season, winter or summer. I have read previous comments where people talk about dust, but for me it is a drop in the bucket and not something to write home about. I would book that house again anytime. We spot what we enjoyed the most was the top floor at the bar and braai which are next to each other with a view of the sea. It was our first and definitely not our last. I wish I could get a booking to be able to spend Xmas there until after New Year. Will try for 2024 if the Lord's will is there and nothing comes up.

Lovely house, which is very well equipped with everything you need. Even a dishwasher, so no hands needed to put hands in dishwater! It exceeded my expectation. The fact that it is child friendly was a bonus as our almost 2 year old grandchild was also there, and we were able to close the gate so she couldn't go up the stairs. We had such a great time relaxing, 4 days was just too little!

Hi Tracey. We are happy you enjoyed your stay! The heating system is remarkably efficient even in winter, but the dreaded loadshedding does have a serious impact on it. We have since your stay made some adjustments to the heating timer schedule to compensate for it, and replaced the pool pump with a new one.

We really enjoyed our stay at the house but had an incident where somebody tried to break into one of our cars. The fact that the garage was not available should have been communicated upfront. The security service was fast and quality.
Jacobsbaai Self-catering 's response
Hi Laura. Thank you for the review.
To try and make up for the effect of load shedding, we will start the heat pump earlier in the future. Please keep in mind that the pool cover should always be reinstalled when no one is swimming to prevent heat loss, especially in cold weather.
The garages have never been included in the description of the property and its amenities offered. It is for this reason that we installed the beams in the parking area, which in your case proved to be effective and prevented any loss.
Warm regards,
Gys

Have a nice rest in a peaceful village.
Had a great stay and will definitely book again. The only points to look at: some beds' bedding was not washed/replaced - was dirty. Kitchen needs can opener and broom. The bath (plumbing) leaks from the master bedroom's bath to the lower room. When it rains, the lower room (behind the living room) leaks as well as the two beds just in front of the sun porch. Which was nice. The hearth in the kitchen made hours of being together and visiting possible - it was lovely. The dishwasher is a bonus - worked perfectly. The pool was lovely! The kids loved it. Nice big and comfortable house. Suggestion: sun porch - take out the two large tables and put a counter right by the windows - with more chairs.

Beste Gerhard. Ons is regtig jammer om te hoor van die probleme wat julle ervaar het. Ons strewe altyd daarna om ons gaste 'n rustige en sorgelose tyd by ons te besorg. Die bad is reeds herstel en ons vermoed dat dit ook die lek in kamers veroorsaak het. Wat die beddegoed aanbetref, maak ons gebruik van 'n onafhanklike kontrakteur om die huis skoon te maak en beddegoed te ruil. Dit is absoluut onaanvaarbaar en ons sal gepaste stappe neem. Dit is regtig jammer dat ons nou eers daar van te hore kom, aangesien ons dit graag sommer dadelik sou wou regstel.

Quiet but check-in time is too late and check-out time is too early.
I did not get a response to my email in which I asked if it would be possible to stay in the house a little longer on Sunday if no one comes into the house. The DStv was already switched off early on Sunday morning, the heated pool I paid extra for was not heated on Saturday morning but was on Sunday morning. Early on Sunday morning, the heating pump had already switched off.

Beste Johan, ons is jammer om te verneem dat jy ongelukkig is met die uitkloktyd. Dit was ongelukkig nie vir ons moontlik om julle later te laat uit gaan as die normale 10:00 nie, soos die agent, Marie aan julle verduidelik het met julle aankoms reeds. Die swembadverhitting word reeds 'n paar dae voor die gaste se aankoms aangeskakel en bly darem ook vir 'n dag of wat nadat dit afgeskakel is, steeds aangenaam. Dit sal blote vermorsing van elektrisiteit wees om dit aan te hou verhit die oggend van die gaste se vertrek. Groete, Gys.

The most peaceful place on earth.
The house was spacious enough for our group of 11 plus our little dog. The pool was a highlight. The braai areas (x3) ensured cozy evenings. The host, Cassie, is a wonderful person and so is his wife. The location so close to the sea is breathtaking, especially near sunset. I slept so soundly that I never experienced the sunrise, but I'm sure it's just as beautiful. I wish I could retire here one day. The house itself is not 100% perfect. The toilet of the full bathroom on the ground floor must be covered when you flush to prevent water, which shoots up the gable, from wetting the floor. Most of the keys have trouble turning, probably the result of some rust at sea? The few small issues I contacted the host about were resolved immediately, for example when a key broke a new one was arranged by Cassie within minutes.

Lovely home with the optional extra of a heated pool.
The house and view were wonderful. The heating for the swimming pool is an optional extra and costs R600. I was asked to turn off the pool the night before we walked. Then I only turned it off on Sunday, before we drove. The agent was of the opinion that I was running the pump unnecessarily. I then explained that I was paying for it and he continued to argue. Furthermore, I emailed to arrange to take my puppy with me. He didn't answer. I called him to get permission. The ad is pet friendly. He said the dog will bark if we go out and it will cost R950 for cleaning if I bring the dog with me.

Hi Elmarie,
Ons is jammer dat jy nie gelukig was met jou verblyf nie, ek sal dit met Cassie opneem. Wat die swembad aanbetref wil ons nie onnodig elektrisiteit verspil deur die water aan te hou verhit as jy reeds die volgende oggend om 10 vertrek nie. Die verhitting was reeds vir drie dae voor julle aankoms aangesit om dit op temperatuur te kry, waarvoor julle nie betaal nie. Dit was in al die jare wat ons die plek verhuur, gelukkig nog nooit nodig om iemand ekstra skoonmaakkostes te vra nie. Ons hou egter ons die reg voor om dit te doen.

Very nice for a large group with children between the ages of 8 - 17 years.
Everything was perfect and met expectations. The house is very spacious and easily accommodated 3 families with 2 children each. In our case it worked out ideally with the 3 teenage boys in the farthest room downstairs and the 3 primary school boys in the room upstairs in front of the stoep/bar. I would just suggest (although I realize, with use, it's hard to keep up) that you just make more tall glasses/glasses available in general. We also found that the sharp knives were too few. The shower on the upper level also created half a problem (we were informed that the shower was leaking). Then "traffic" gets bad at the single shower on the lower floor. But overall we had a great weekend. We can recommend it and will definitely use the house again as soon as our everyone's programs allow it! Next time we will definitely also just provide for more wood! 20 bags were too few, that house is hopelessly too cozy!

I have taken this up with Cassie, and he said that there were no complaints, and that everything was in order until the guests started playing music so loudly that various people phoned to complain about the excessive noise. He had no choice but to request the guests to adhere to the municipal by-laws, as Jacobsbaai is a beautiful, serene little town where loud music and screeching tyres are frowned upon. Please be considerate of other guests and residents.

The booking was only made one day before arrival, which was unfortunately not enough lead time to have the pool up to temperature on the next day, in the middle of winter. On the following day however, the water would have reached its usual 28 degrees Celsius. We regret only now hearing about the problem that you have had, and will gladly refund you for the heating.
We urge all our guests to familiarise themselves with what 28 degrees feels like. It is definitely not a hot tub, but more like a summer pool in the bushveld! The vast majority of our guests absolutely love the pool though!

Hi Michelle,

Wonderful spacious home; well equipped with a lovely view and the pool is a definite winner.
We had a great time and rested here. The house is spacious with enough barbecue to feed a nation. The kitchen and bar area were our favorite hangouts not to mention the lush green lawn around the pool. Everything was tidy and there is more than enough equipment to be able to prepare even a large Christmas meal. The area is quiet and peaceful and we never felt unsafe thanks to the alarm, outdoor sensors and the faithful guard patrolling at night. The master bedroom is enormous and the two rooms downstairs are also beautiful. The fourth bedroom upstairs was a bit cramped and the lack of a window that could open, especially in the summer, might be addressed in the future. Other minor problems are the overhead shower that leaks badly and the dim lighting. However, we thoroughly enjoyed our time on Jacobs Bay and I would like to thank Cassie and Miems for their kindness and helpfulness with the rubbish removal and electricity supply. It's excellent service. The house lends itself perfectly to large families or even four couples who want to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city. There is more than enough space for nice gatherings, but also privacy to read a book somewhere. We will definitely visit again!

We had a wonderful visit with friends and family in this nice holiday home.
I was very impressed with Jacobs Bay. The house is big and beautiful! And has absolutely everything you can think of (down to a pressure cooker). We had three children between 1 and 5 together and the house was child friendly! We thoroughly enjoyed our time at home with family and friends. The open plan sleeping area for the children was an absolute winner, because we could have a barbecue and they could watch TV just half with each other. And the 2 TVs are the best, men watch rugby and children watch Disney Junior. Big, neat and affordable; ideal guest house for a medium-sized group.

Dear Carrone,
We certainly strive to afford our guests the freedom to enjoy their stay, be jubilant, and to have a wonderful time. You are merely expected to consider the neighbours and municipal by-laws in the same way we expect the neighbours to consider our guests. Other than that you are free to have a good time. You are most certainly not prohibited to play music and speak in a loud tone, as long as it is done within reason. In the 9 years of ownership, this is the first time we have ever had any issues in this regard.
