Neat, clean and comfortable.
My husband and I really enjoyed our visit. The place to stay is located nicely to one side of the village which makes it nice and quiet and if you sit on the stoepie and visit/barbeque you can even hear the sound of the sea. The owner was very friendly upon our arrival and the accommodation itself was so clean and tidy with a kitchen that has everything you could need to make good food and so much more. The bedding and towels were clean and tidy, and there were even some snacks set out to make it feel personally welcoming. The information leaflets of all the surrounding villages were also very helpful as it was our first time in the West Coast. I would definitely advise anyone, with or without children, to stay and rest here.

Hidden diamond.
We were pleasantly surprised when we drove through the security gate and discovered the beautiful place. First of all, thanks to Brenda for her warm welcome. Kalahari & Namib Cottages are very neat and clean. The place is equipped with everything and anything else. We were surprised about the jacuzzi and sauna as it is not in the description. There is an outdoor and indoor braai area that you don't see everywhere. In English there is a proverb: attention to small details will ultimately yield the greatest results. There was coffee, tea, sugar, milk, fruit juices and biscuits for us to use. I would recommend Kalahari & Namib Cottages anytime. The peaceful place just creeps deep into your heart.

Delicious! Brenda is very professional and the place is extremely clean, comfortable and fully equipped with more than necessary.
Brenda is a pleasant person and we immediately felt welcome. It is very private and peaceful and one immediately feels comfortable. It is really walking distance from the sea and shops and one also feels safe because of the tranquility and the beautiful surroundings. It is quiet and one can unwind in the piece of paradise. The secluded little garden and the braai area are comfortable and the coolness under the tree is really festive. There is more than enough equipment in the place to literally just take your clothes and brush your teeth with you. The secure parking is also a big plus point and it provides the necessary peace of mind.

Only 1 night's overnight stay in Yzerfontein.
Property very nice and tidy. All the equipment etc. worked, enough plates, glasses, mugs etc. The tea and coffee provided was a very nice surprise as we had forgotten to pack. However, the chimney did not draw well, so the braai room was full of smoke when we braaied on Saturday night. My sleeping pillow wasn't comfortable, and I woke up often, but that's probably specific to myself, since no one else had a problem.

Beds really need an upgrade the en-suite bathroom on suite shower didn't work. The Sauna was a nice surprise but the jacuzzi didn't work.
Kalahari & Namib Cottages 's response
Thank you for your review Adele.
I am so sorry that you were so unhappy with the accommodation.
The previous guests who were there a day before you, broke both the shower taps in the said bathroom and also the Jacuzzi outlet valve. I therefore did not have time to do the necessary repairs before your arrival.
The beds are comfortable, clean and have standard linen. I truly cannot afford luxuries in any form, as I am struggling to just try and put bread on the table after the Covid pandemic. I honestly am just doing the best that I can right now.
I wish you and your family well and many more better holidays ahead in very luxurious accommodations.
