Great stay.

Great space to enjoy time with friends. It is an old house so it has some old house challenges but very comfortable and good space. Well kitted out as well.

Die beste toegeruste vakansiehuis wat ons nog in was.

Dit was heerlik om hier te kuier. Die eienaar was ongelooflik behulpsaam en vriendelik. Die huis is baie ruim en alhoewel ons net 4 redelike bejaardes (2 goed bejaard) was, is dit n baie gemaklike huis en kom mens nie in mekaar se pad nie. Alles wat jy nodig het en nog meer is beskikbaar. Die see is net oorkant die straat met 'n heerlike gemaklike wandelpaadjie langs die see. Daar is 'n goeie verskeidenheid boeke om te lees en ons sal beslis weer hier wil gaan uitspan.

The best equipped holiday home we have ever been to.

It was lovely to visit here. The owner was incredibly helpful and friendly. The house is very spacious and although we were only 4 reasonably elderly people (2 very elderly), it is a very comfortable house and you don't get in each other's way. Everything you need and more is available. The sea is just across the street with a lovely comfortable promenade along the sea. There is a good selection of books to read and we would definitely want to come here again.

An exquisite home, ideal location, large garden and well secured.

This accommodation is absolutely fantastic! The house is beautiful, well furnished, spacious and very well equipped. The garden is large and ideal for our dog. The swimming pool is a bonus and we used it often. The location is idyllic - right on the ocean.

Gerieflik.

Die ligging van 28 Marine Drive is puik, dit is regoorkant 'n bekende getypoel genaamd Jan Rabie Getypoel. Dit was gerieflik om elke nou en dan net oor te glip, sodat ons kinders kon gaan swem en visvang. Die huis leef baie lekker, en die groot stoep en swembad was ook 'n treffer. Ek sal die verblyf sterk aanbeveel.

Comfortable.

The location of 28 Marine Drive is great, it is opposite a famous tidal pool called Jan Rabie Tidal Pool. It was convenient to just slip over every now and then so our kids could go swimming and fishing. The house lives very well, and the large veranda and swimming pool were also a hit. I would highly recommend the stay.

Ons het lekker gebly.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier, alles was skoon en netjies. Die huis is goed geleë voor die Jan Rabie getypoel. Al wat nie vir ons goed was nie, was die selfoonopvangs. Ons het ook nie die WiFi se besonderhede gekry toe ons inboek nie, en ons moes rondbel om dit wel te kry, want dit staan ook nêrens nie. Die huis is wel toegerus met alle benodighede.

We had a nice stay.

We had a great time, everything was clean and tidy. The house is well located in front of the Jan Rabie tidal pool. All that was not good for us was the cell phone reception. We also didn't get the WiFi's details when we checked in, and we had to call around to get it, because it's nowhere to be found either. The house is equipped with all necessities.

Hi Renate - baie dankie dat julle vir Marine Drive Manor gekies het vir julle naweek weg! Jammer oor die onduidelikheid aangaande die WiFi wagwoord, ons het wel die kwessie aangespreek en stuur die besonderhede saam met die ander inligting. Hoop ons sien julle binnekort weer!

Ons was in Onrus met ń spanbou-geleentheid. Hierdie was een van 3 huise wat ons gehuur het.

Ons het heerlik gebly. Ons gasvrou, Estelle, was uitstekend. Sy het uit haar pad gegaan om ons te help en is só vriendelik. Almal het die huis geniet. Dis uitstekend geleë met 'n heerlike swembad en letterlik by die see. Ons dink 'n uitgebreide gesin sal heerlik vakansie hou hier.

We were in Onrus with a team building event. This was one of 3 houses we rented.

We had a wonderful stay. Our hostess, Estelle, was excellent. She went out of her way to help us and is so friendly. Everyone enjoyed the house. It's excellently located with a lovely swimming pool and literally by the sea. We think an extended family will have a wonderful holiday here.

The house worked so well for us, we absolutely loved our stay there!!

Our family needed a very much special time away together. My Mother, two sisters and husbands, my two children with their partners, and my daughter-in-law. And my husband and his 27 year old son. Wow, that house worked perfectly for us, it couldn't have been any better. Thank you so much. We absolutely loved it there.

Pictures on the internet do not do this property justice, wow factor. Location was fab.

Everything you need for a short break or holiday is provided for you. The house is a short walk to the tidal pool, with a nice running/walking paved pathway along the beach. The pool was amazing. We had a very good experience and would definitely stay again.

Heerlike gesinsvakansie.

Pragtige gerestoureerde huis, genoeg badkamers en goed toegerus. Genoeg spasie en mooi uitsig. Selfoonopvangs is wel swak, maar dit het ons nie regtig gepla nie.

Ligging reg by die see. Ontvangs baie vriendelik. Alles wat jy nodig het is in die huis, selfs dit wat jy nie gedink het jy gaan nodig kry.

Was wonderlik om weg te breek na 'n pragtige dorp en huis. Sal dit aanbeveel vir almal.

My only regret is not booking the place for longer period of time!

Beautiful house with kind of an old fashioned romantic beach house feeling! Wooden floor boards and window shutters are charming. Right next to beach, with a swimming pool and very spacious areas ideal for entertaining.

Marine Drive Manor was a home-from-home holiday experience with everything that we could possibly need and a wonderful gallery of beautiful pictures to further inspire us.

The house exceeded my expectations. It was comfortable, sparkling clean and had everything that we could have possibly needed. The location is wonderful. My Australian family were really impressed. Clare was so helpful in relation to meeting us to hand over the key and returned to assist us in collecting something that had been left behind. I do hope that we can find an opportunity to come again. Thank you.

Lieflike, karaktervolle huis, wat goed toegerus is om baie mense te hanteer.

Marine Drive Manor is 'n ideale plek vir 'n groot groep mense met baie volwassenes. Hoewel die huis al in 1926 gebou is, is dit baie goed gerestoureer. Die ligging naby die strand en die pragtige staproete is ideaal. Kan die stadsraad nie dalk net die bosse voor die huis effe laer snoei, sodat mens 'n see-uitsig het nie? Die kombuis is baie goed toegerus (hoewel die 1 yskas stukkend is en die oond se grill nie werk nie). Die breekgoed het alles bymekaar gepas (nie soos 'n normale strandhuis wat uitverhuur word met breekgoed wat glad nie pas nie) en daar was genoeg potte, panne, slaaibakke, opskepbakke ens. Dalk moet die glase uitgebrei word. Goeie rooiwyn kan nie in daardie kelkies geniet word nie en die vonkelwynglase was te min. Die hele ervaring was werklik baie goed en ons sal enige tyd daarheen teruggaan. Dankie.

Lovely, characterful house, well equipped to handle lots of people.

Marine Drive Manor is an ideal place for a large group of people with many adults. Although the house was built in 1926, it has been very well restored. The location near the beach and the beautiful walking route is ideal. Couldn't the city council just trim the bushes in front of the house a little lower, so that you have a sea view? The kitchen is very well equipped (although the 1 fridge is broken and the oven's grill does not work). The crockery all fit together (not like a normal beach house that is rented out with crockery that doesn't fit at all) and there were enough pots, pans, salad bowls, serving bowls etc. Maybe the glasses need to be expanded. Good red wine cannot be enjoyed in those goblets and the sparkling wine glasses were too few. The whole experience was really very good and we will go back there anytime. Thank you.
