Goeie more Zander, eerstens baie dankie dat jy Kites View B&B gekies het vir jou verblyf gedurende die Comrades naweek. Dit was 'n absolute plesier om jou hier te huisves en sien uit om jou weer te verwelkom. Kites View moet die wegbreek huis wees weg van jou tuiste.

Goeiedag Wimpie,
Baie dankie vir die terugvoering.
Ons allokeer parkeering spesifiek vir die groot voertuie. Dit gebeur soms waar gaste nie in the geallokeerde parkeering parkeer nie, en dit veroorsaak ongerief vir almal.
Oor die algemeen, as gaste in die geallokeerde parkeer plek parkeer is dit selde 'n probleem.
Ons is jammer vir die ongerief en sien uit daarna om julle in toekoms weer te sien.
Vriendelike Groete,

Surprising, safe and friendly.
Kites View Bed & Breakfast pleasantly surprised me. I was there as a single traveler who only needed to spend the night. The place had everything I needed. I was able to leave my vehicle overnight behind a lockable gate and they also provided me with a remote control so I could get in and out on my own. I had to leave early in the morning and they were willing to give me breakfast by 06:30 in the morning, even if their official time is only 07:00. It was a big breakfast consisting of bacon, eggs, tea, fruit juice etc. The place has a very nice view. The place where I spent the night had its own shower, toilet, sink, fridge etc. had. A TV is also available if you need it. The managers were very friendly and interested.

Disappointing.
Read moreKites View Bed and Breakfast 's response
Hi Starr,
Thank you for your feedback, good or bad, it is always appreciated.
My sincere apologies for any inconvenience caused.
Unfortunately, my wife and I were overseas at the time of your visit and our locum was taking care of the bed and breakfast in our absence, but take full responsibility for what happens at the bed and breakfast.
The manager is usually very conscientious, and such were surprised and very disappointed to receive your review.
I have discussed the matter with Numsa (Housekeeper) and Louis (Manager).
When room 2 is reserved; only room in which the beds can be split, we always enquire from the guest if they want the beds split or not, prior to their arrival, clearly this was not done. The matter has been addressed with the manager.
It is very unfortunate to be told that a table is reserved for another family, I personally would have responded in much the same manner as you did. This is definitely not the way we treat our guests, we have an additional table which should have been set up for the additional family; which we have done on a number of occasions before. This matter has been addressed with both staff members in no uncertain terms.
The housekeeper, who does the cooking, is off duty on Sundays. However, we have a housekeeper who stands in for her on Sundays, as was the case in this instance. Hopefully, you still enjoyed a great breakfast.
We only supply 1 full toilet roll per room daily or as required, additional toilet paper is supplied on request.
Guests are advised to close the bedroom balcony doors and windows when they vacate the rooms. Monkeys will not enter a room if they see someone inside. Monkeys are opportunistic and will take whatever meal they can find. They are part of the fauna and flora and we endeavour to co-exist with them.
Thank you for staying at Kites View bed and breakfast and once again please accept our apologies where we have fallen short of your expectations. These matters have been addressed and should not happen again.
Hopefully, you and your family will return to Kites View giving us an opportunity to show our true hospitality.
Kind Regards,
Geoff and Kathy

Hi Francois, My sincere apologies for the inconvenience. The linen is replaced before every check-in takes place. I can, therefore, assure you that the linen was clean and fresh. The mark on the pillow case is a chemical stain and will be removed from future use. We have a problem with Vervet monkeys trashing the rooms when doors or windows are left open, however, we will endeavour to remedy this somehow. Very often the remote which is used to switch the TV on and off is used to change channels (there is a separate remote for changing channels - DStv remote), when this happens the TV goes off AV and as a result, DStv is no longer available. The remote used for on and off only is marked accordingly. All drains (basin and shower) are dosed with Domestos weekly, this will have to be done more frequently. Thank you for the feedback it is appreciated, we go to great lengths to provide a home from home experience for all our guests. Kind Regards, Geoff

Kites View Bed and Breakfast 's response
Hi August,
Thank you for the feedback.
We take the welfare of our guests very seriously and endeavour to create a home from home environment. We would just like to briefly cover some of the pertinent points made above. Namely, location and parking.
1) Location (La Lucia KZN):
La Lucia is located in a tranquil, upmarket area adjoining Umhlanga Rocks.
a. Kites View is 2,5km from the La Lucia beach and La Lucia Mall.
b. We are 5km from the Umhlanga main swimming beach and Gateway theatre of shopping.
c. 15km from King Shaka airport and Ushaka Marine World.
d. 150km - 200km from the Drakensburg resorts and also Imfolozi/Hluhluwe "big five" reserves.
Our establishment is located in a cul-de-sac, and therefore does not have through traffic.
Most of our guests choose Kites View because of its beautiful views (also from the balconies of the 4 upstairs rooms), tranquil and safe environment, away from the hustle and bustle.
2) Parking:
Yes, parking can be a challenge unless managed by the management. We have allocated parking
bays on the property, for the guests, off the road, making the vehicles secure. The bays are
allocated according to size of vehicle, making it easier to manoeuvre them.
Thanks again for staying with us and look forward to your next visit. Hopefully then, we can advise you on the whereabouts of the nearest beaches, places of interest and also allocate a less challenging parking spot for you.
Kind Regards,
Geoff
