10 out of 10 stay which ticks all of your home away from home needs.

We had very friendly staff and a nice clean pet-friendly place to stay who went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Great guest relations personnel. Fresh swimming towels offered. Great breakfast and staff who catered to our needs. Lovely location and Mr Pieter was a very gracious host who was very accommodating and understanding to our situation, which was a real blessing for us. We would definitely love to stay here again under better circumstances, but being here helped with the stress relief. I would recommend friends to stay here. Wonderful view while enjoying the new morning while eating breakfast.

Vriendelike personeel en netjies skoon kamers. Die beddegoed word elke dag omgeruil, kamer skoongemaak en eerste B&B waar die ontbyt ingesluit is, en moeite gedoen word. Baie dankie, julle sien my beslis binnekort weer.

Melkbosch Guest House was amazing. Great location around the corner from the beach, great staff and great breakfast. It was a long stay and they even had a laundry service that was not expensive, which was something we were worried about as we have 2 teenagers. We stayed for 9 nights and it really was a great holiday.

Skoon en netjies.

Die personeel was vriendelik en behulpsaam. Alhoewel die gastehuis skoon en netjies was, sal ons voorstel dat die matras in die eenheid waarin ons geslaap het, vervang word. Die warm ontbyt was heerlik, alhoewel die vrugteslaai teleurgestel het; dit het byna net uit spanspek bestaan. Ek is allergies vir spanspek. Die koffie was heerlik.

The staff were friendly and helpful. Although the guest house was clean and tidy, we would suggest replacing the mattress in the unit we slept in.

Will not stay there again because of personnel.

Everything was fine but the sleep in personnel invades our space. They bring their braaivleis and in their PJs and slippers braai in the braai room and sit outside on the top balcony smoking where you are supposed to sit with your morning coffee. They are unfriendly, not informing you about the breakfast arrangements; you have to ask.

Mooi ligging en perfekte atmosfeer.

Lekker gebly, maar kamers en gebruikte handdoeke was nie daagliks skoongemaak nie. Gebruikte teekoppies in kamer was nie gewas. Vuilis in swartdrom in kamer en kombuis het opgehoop en was nie verwyder tot en met uitcheckdag toe ek dit rapporteer. Aanbeveling - Daaglikse skoonmaak is van kardinale belang en nie net opmaak van beddens nie. Opgradering van ontbytmenu sal welkom wees om dit meer in lyn te bring met die estetika van die gastehuis.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Nice location and perfect atmosphere.

Nice stay, but rooms and used towels were not cleaned daily. Used teacups in room were not washed. Dirt in black bin in room and kitchen accumulated and was not removed until check out day when I reported it. Recommendation - Daily cleaning is crucial and not just making beds. Upgrading the breakfast menu would be welcome to bring it more in line with the aesthetics of the guest house.

Disappointing.

We specified, booked and paid in full for 3 luxury rooms a few months ahead of our arrival. The owner, with no prior negotiation, assigned us to three standard rooms. These were mostly small and uninviting. When expressing our discomfort, we were offered one luxury room in another building after we had settled in. I later phoned the owner, but found him unapologetic - with little, if any, regard for our situation. He kept on stating his problems and eventually offered a second room, also elsewhere. This was strange, but practically too late as we were already preparing to attend a special event in Blouberg. The behavior of the owner was unacceptable - I would describe it as harsh, unethical and probably legally questionable. The lady who received us and who provided a lovely breakfast the next day, was however very kind and supportive.

Alles romdom die naweek was lekker, rustig en veilig. Die ontbyt was heerlik en ons het baie leker gekuier. Dit was ons anniversary en ons het die rustigheid waardeer. Ons het ook besluit dat ons gereeld hier sal kom kuier. Die feit dat daar voorsiening gemaak is vir load shedding is ook 'n bonus. Baie dankie.

We enjoyed our stay and our host was very gracious in attending to our needs.

We were four single friends sharing two rooms, so we requested to sleep in king-size beds to avoid disturbing each other during the night. Since the room we initially booked was not considered suitable for elderly guests, another room was quickly prepared for us. We felt well taken care of.

Clean, serviceable for my short stay.

Understandably since I was only there for one night and alone, I did not get the room that I booked, but I can't say that I was delighted with the room I was given, right next to the entrance gate and a poky window. Would have been nice to be informed of the change prior to my getting there. It was nice to be able to have breakfast included and the view there was lovely. I might consider a second visit if I were accompanied and for a longer stay if the room provided was different.

'n Wonderlike, skoon gastehuis met vriendelike werknemers.

Die werknemers het ons vriendelik gegroet met aankoms en daar was seker gemaak dat ons gelukkig is met alles. Die ontbyt is heerlik en jy kan bepaal watter tyd die gerieflikste sal wees vir jou om te eet. Hulle het ook stelsels in plek om te keer teen beurtkrag, so dit was heerlik om heeltyd elektrisiteit te hê.

Melkbosch Huest House se see-uitsig is ongelooflik.

Ons was hartlik deur Pieter ontvang, en het elke oggend 'n heerlike ontbyt gekry, wat 'n bonus was. Die gastehuis is ongelooflik, van die netheid tot die uitsig wat vyfster gehalte is. Baie dankie aan die personeel wat na ons omgesien het gedurende ons verblyf, julle is uitstaande!. Ons sal verseker weer daar oorbly as ons in die Melkbos omgewing is. Ons sal dit ook met groot vrymoedigheid aanbeveel.

Almal was baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Alle behoeftes wat ons kon hê was voorsien in. Jammer die waaier in ons kamer het net gedeeltelik gewerk en ons kon nie die see vanuit ons woonstel sien nie. Ek voel die foto's is bietjie misleidend maar verder was dit baie, baie gerieflik en lekker.

Uitstekende vriendelike diens. Het so welkom gevoel. Klein goedjies by Sand kamer net 'n bietjie aandag kry. Die ketel, en stort dalk 'n gordyn om te verhoed dat vloer nat raak. Maar verder, sal die plek aanbeveel en as ons weer in Melkbosstrand bly die gastehuis kies.

I enjoyed the stay. Clean and very relaxing. Last who welcomed us should be trained how to welcome guest. Kitchen a bit cold and stiff. Must be more welcoming with a better atmosphere. If any broken chairs it yet is removed immediately. If a guest sits on a broken chair there's a risk of injury. Even if a guest sits at another table there must be a proper chair. Other than above it's a nice place. Thank you.

Heerlik ontspannend.

Ons kamer, See, het 'n pragtige uitsig oor die see. Was lekker om al die restaurante binne stapafstand te kon hê. Komplimente aan die kok vir 'n heerlike ontbyt. Ons kom weer.

Huislik en ontspannend!

Dit was asof ek huis toe gekom het. Ontspannend en rustig. Alles was so rustig. Alles was skoon en higiënies. Alles wat ons nodig gehad het was beskikbaar in die kamers en kombuis, selfs ons eie kombuis en balkon waar ons gebraai en lekker gekuier het. Dit was regtig die moeite werd om weer terug te gekeer het. Baie dankie aan Melkbosch Guesthouse se bestuur en werkers. Julle is tops! Pluimpie vir Suid-Afrikaanse toerisme!

Homely and relaxing!

It was like coming home. Relaxing and peaceful. Everything was so peaceful. Everything was clean and hygienic. Everything we needed was available in the rooms and kitchen, even our own kitchen and balcony where we barbecued and had a good time. It was really worth returning again. Many thanks to Melkbosch Guesthouse's management and workers. You guys are great! Kudos to South African tourism!

Die perfekte wegbreek.

Dit was 'n heerlike ontspanne naweek. Die huis is pragtig en ons kamer Sea het die perfekte uitsig oor die see gehad. Werklik goed vir die siel. Ons het ver ente langs die see gestap. Die restaurante was almal binne stapafstand en ons het saans veilig gevoel om rustig terug te stap. Baie dankie ook vir 'n heerlike ontbyt.

It was a lovely relaxing weekend. The house is beautiful and our room Sea had the perfect view of the sea. Truly good for the soul. We walked far along the sea.

Ons het meer verwag.

Die badkamer het nie 'n deur gehad nie, die (enkele) bedlampie het nie 'n bulb gehad nie. Ons moes ook lank voor die deur wag om toegang tot die eiendom te kry en het 'n paar keer die klokkie gelui. Toe ons die nommer skakel, antwoord 'n vrou en sê: "Ek sien julle op die kamera, Pieter is nou daar". Dit was effens eienaardig. Al kon ons ook sien daar was WiFi, was daar geen instruksies in ons kamer of verbaal aan ons oorgedra oor hoe om die wagwoord te kry nie. Daar was ook net 'n skamele bottel bodywash in die stort en geen watte of oorstokkies in die kamer nie. Die kamer was wel baie skoon en ontbyt was heerlik en die diens daar uitstekend. Daar is baie beter plekke om op Melkbos te bly, ons sal nie weer teruggaan hierheen nie.

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

We expected more.

The bathroom didn't have a door, the (single) bedside lamp didn't have a bulb. We also had to wait a long time at the door to get access to the property and rang the bell a few times. When we dialed the number, a woman answered and said: "I see you on the camera, Pieter is there now". It was slightly peculiar. Even though we could also see there was WiFi, there were no instructions in our room or verbally conveyed to us on how to get the password. There was also only a measly bottle of bodywash in the shower and no cotton wool or earplugs in the room. The room was very clean and breakfast was delicious and the service there excellent. There are much better places to stay on Melkbos, we will not be going back here again.

Ons is verwelkom met ope arms en vriendelike gasheer en gasvrou.

Ontbyt was great, plek was skoon en netjies elke dag. Parkering buite het ons angstig gemaak maar daar was geen voorvalle nie. Een van die kamers was teen 'n steil trap - mense met klein kinders en ouer mense sal nie dit kan gebruik nie maar dan is daar ook 'n kamer onder en die plekkie langsaan. Daar is 'n wasmasjien vir wasgoed was en ons kon selfs ons vis stoor in die vrieskas. Elke kamer het 'n klein selfhelp-yskassie en ons een kamer wat onder was het 'n klein kombuisie gehad wat baie gehelp het.

We were welcomed with open arms and friendly host and hostess.

Breakfast was great, place was clean and tidy every day. Parking outside made us anxious but there were no incidents. One of the rooms was up a steep flight of stairs - people with small children and older people won't be able to use it but then there is also a room downstairs and the place next door. There is a washing machine for washing clothes and we could even store our fish in the freezer. Each room has a small self help fridge and our one room which was downstairs had a small kitchen which helped a lot.

Comfy and cosy accommodation on the West Coast.

Excellent stay and very helpful staff that were attentive to our needs at all times. Very good location, you could wake up, walk a 100 m to the beach for a soak before you start your day. Good location near shopping malls, road networks, beaches and good view of Table Mountain. Breakfast was always excellent!

Netjiese, skoon gastehuis. Kamer klein en beknop vir die prys. Geen see-uitsig. Ontbyt eetplek ook te klein vir aantal gaste.

Baie goed ontvang. Skoon en netjiese kamer. Tarief te hoog vir die omgewing.

Neat, clean guest house. Room small and cramped for the price. No sea view. Breakfast dining area too small for number of guests.

Very well received. Clean and tidy room. Rate too high for the environment.

Fantastiese ligging, modern en privaat. Vriendelik met 'n heerlike ontbyt. Ek sal die plek definitief aanbeveel.

Hierdie gastehuis is baie goed geleë en dis heerlik privaat met 'n fantastiese uitsig. Gasheer is baie vriendelik maar gun jou ook privaatheid. Ontbyt was heerlik en ek voel hierdie was goeie waarde vir geld. Die huis is baie modern en skoon. Lugreëling sou die ervaring perfek gemaak het, maar die kamer was koel genoeg dat dit nie 'n probleem was nie. Ek beveel hierdie gastehuis aan vir die reisiger wat 'n "lock-up and go" wegbreek sal geniet. Letterlik een minuut se stap van die strand af met baie restaurante binne loopafstand.

Fantastic location, modern and private. Friendly with a delicious breakfast. I will definitely recommend this place.

This guesthouse is well located and it is lovely and private with a fantastic view. Host is very friendly but also grant you your privacy. Breakfast was delicious and I feel it was good value for money. The house is very modern and clean. Aircon woudl have made the experience perfect, but the room was cool enough so that it wasn't a problem. I recommend this guesthouse to any traveller who would enjoy a lock-up-and-go getaway. Literally one minute's walk from the beach with lots of restaurants within walking distance.

Stunning accommodation!

Clean, neat, upmarket, simply amazing! Will recommend this to anyone! Bed and breakfast, stunning sea view from the bedroom, and a stone throw from the ocean. We only stayed one night on a road trip, and we wished we booked more time here. Will definitely return.

Naby 'n lekker gesinstrand en gemaklike verblyf.

Ons het dit terdeë geniet om binne loopafstand van 'n lieflike strand te wees. Die mense by die gastehuis is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Al wat ons gepla het was die min parkering voor in die straat. Sal dit egter enige tyd aanbeveel en vir seker weer van hulle gebruik maak.

Close to a nice family beach and comfortable accommodation.

We thoroughly enjoyed being within walking distance of a lovely beach. The people at the guest house are very friendly and helpful. All that bothered us was the lack of parking in the street. Would recommend any time though and will definitely use them again.

Indien ons nie in elk geval die tarief moes betaal nie, sou ons vir seker na dag 1 uitgeboek het.

Die personeel het in die motorhuis direk langs ons kamer geslaap. Hulle het baie laat in die nag eers kos gemaak en dan te heerlik gelag en gesels. Dit was uiters steurend en baie sleg. Ons middagslapie was onmoontlik omdat die bestuurder reg voor ons kamer die twee skoonmakers opdragte gegee het. Ons het dit baie steurend gevind. Die breekware in hierdie kamer was skokkend. Daar was 5 bekers waarvan 3 getjip is en sommer bruin verkleur het. Daar was slegs 3 teelepels en nie een het bymekaar gepas nie. Daar was nie eers 'n botteloopmaker in die kamer nie en ons moes een by die personeel leen. Dit is 'n selfsorg-eenheid, daar was talle potte maar geen stoof of plate waarop mens enigiets kon voorberei nie. Ons het darem buite ons kamer kon braai, maar kon slegs die mikrogolf binne gebruik. Die personeel was baie vriendelik, maar die verblyf was regtig aaklig en daarom kry hulle 'n swak resensie. Al ons ander verblyf was aangenaam.

If we didn't have to pay the rate anyway, we would have checked out after day 1 for sure.

The staff slept in the garage directly next to our room. They first cooked food very late at night and then laughed and talked too much. It was extremely disturbing and very bad. Our afternoon nap was impossible because the manager was giving orders to the two cleaners right in front of our room. We found it very disturbing. The crockery in this room was shocking. There were 5 cups of which 3 were chipped and just turned brown. There were only 3 teaspoons and none of them fit together. There wasn't even a bottle opener in the room and we had to borrow one from the staff. It is a self-catering unit, there were numerous pots but no stove or plates on which to prepare anything. At least we could barbecue outside our room, but could only use the microwave inside. The staff were very friendly, but the stay was really awful and that's why they get a bad review. All our other stays were pleasant.

Slegte diens met eienaar wat "vergeet" het dat ons gaan opdaag.

Moenie hier bespreek nie! Slegte diens met eienaar wat "vergeet" het dat ons sou opdaag, en toe moes ons 4 in een kamer bly met twee volwasse kinders van 21 en 23 jaar oud wat op stapelbeddens moes slaap. Sy assistent het aan ons gesê dat hy dit al verskeie kere vantevore ook gedoen het.

Do not book here! Bad service with owner who "forgot" that we would arrive, and then 4 of us had to stay in one room with two adult children aged 21 and 23 who had to sleep on bunk beds. His assistant told us that he had done this several times before as well.

Melkbosch Guest House 's response

Dit is baie jammer om hierdie uiters nagatiewe kommentaar te lees. Ek was eerlik om te erken dat ek 'n fout gemaak het maar die gaste is nie eerlik met hul opmerkings nie. Enigeen kan 'n bona fide fout maak. Ek het hulle beslis nie in 1 kamer ingedruk nie. Alternatiewe kamers is in my tweede gastehuis reg langs my gastehuis aangebied maar hulle het geweier om selfs te gaan kyk. Hulle het self gese dat die kamer waar hul gebly het, voldoende is. Ek het self persoonlik later die middag 'n tweede kamer in my gastehuis aangebied maar weereens het hul geweier om dit te aanvaar. Ek het ook nie betaling vir twee kamers se verblyf van hul verhaal nie maar slegs een kamer en die kinders het gratis ontbyt geniet.

Graag wil ek ook noem dat die ouers uiters ongeskik en ongemanierd teenoor my assistent was. My assistent het beslis ook nie aan hulle genoem dat dit gereeld gebeur nie want dit is nie waar nie. Hierdie is doelbewuste pogings om ons te boikot en beslis nie gaste wat ek weer wil sien nie.
