Great stay!

We had a great time exploring the beautiful West Coast from Grotto Bay. Our hosts were welcoming and friendly, the apartment was simple, clean and well equipped. Amazing sunsets!

Rustige naweek, omring met natuurskoon en die see om die prentjie af te rond.

Ons verblyf was baie lekker en die plekkie was mooi ingerig en netjies. Bo verwagting.

Our stay was very nice and the place was nicely furnished and tidy. Above expectation.

Vriendelik liefdevolle - vrugte van die Heilige Gees mense.

Ek gaan beslis weer. Ek wou net oornag - maar die omgewing het my moeë gees en liggaam goed gedoen - absoluut veilig en besorgsaam. Dit is selfsorg - met 'n vriendelike heerlike warm koffie, tee en beskuit - platinum diens. Blessings vir hulle - altyd.

Friendly loving - fruits of the Holy Spirit people.

I will definitely go again. I just wanted to spend the night - but the environment did my tired mind and body good - absolutely safe and caring. It is self-catering - with a friendly delicious hot coffee, tea and biscuit - platinum service. Blessings to them - always.

Lieflike plek, pynlik netjies.

Dankie Alet vir jou gasvryheid. Ons het dit geniet. Die plek is gerieflik netjies, niks kort. Baie rustig. Nie ver van slaap.

Wonderlike Weskus-plekkie.

Grotto Bay bied mens 'n Weskus-ervaring minder as 'n uur se ry van die Kaap af. Dit is 'n pragtige vakansieplek en nie so rumoerig as Langebaan ens. nie. Molly Hawk Place is die ideale plek om daar tuis te gaan. Skoon, netjies, stapafstand van die see af en Dan en Alta is sekerlik van die beste gashere was ek al ooit teëgekom het. Was 'n heerlike ervaring.

Wonderful West Coast spot.

Grotto Bay offers a West Coast experience less than an hour's drive from the Cape. It is a beautiful holiday spot and not as noisy as Langebaan etc. not. Molly Hawk Place is the ideal place to call home. Clean, tidy, walking distance from the sea and Dan and Alta are certainly some of the best hosts I have ever come across. Was a lovely experience.

Gasvryheid op sy beste.

Die eienaars doen regtig moeite om dit so huislik as moontlik te maak. Die woonstel is pynlik netjies en die stilte is 'n bonus.

Hospitality at its best.

The owners really make an effort to make it as homely as possible. The apartment is painfully neat and the silence is a bonus.

Baie lekker gebly.

Heerlike, stil omgewing en 'n klipgooi van die see. Die geruis van branders is lafenis vir die siel. Akkommodasie is baie netjies en goed ingerig. Alta en Dan het ons welkom laat voel. Gasvryheid word baie waardeer.

Lovely, quiet surroundings and a stone's throw from the sea. The roar of the waves is torment for the soul. Accommodation is very neat and well furnished. Alta and Dan made us feel welcome. Hospitality is much appreciated.

Hospitality at Molly Hawk Place was priceless.

The hospitality at Molly Hawk Place was priceless. On arrival up to the end of our stay we felt at home. Nearer to "mother nature" you won't get. Danny and Alta, thank you once again for making us feel special. God Bless you.

This was just a quick getaway for 2 nights. We enjoyed the peace and tranquility.

It was a very homey little guesthouse attached to a main house. The hots were very hospitable. It was very quiet and peaceful and in walking distance to the pebble beach.

There are not enough stars available to give. They went out of their way to make sure we had a West Coast Christmas to remember.

Accommodation was clean as a whistle, everything you need for a beach break was readily available and the hosts were extremely accommodating and kind in every way. Salt of the earth!

Thank you Jackie for the wonderful review. As guests, you and your family are wonderful people and you are very welcome to return at any time.

Wonderful getaway.

Perfect getaway, so close to Cape Town, great accommodation, miles of unspoilt, uninhabited coastline. Very hospitable hosts, all we could need in the unit. We'll be back - as would anyone who'd been there! Safe environment for kids.

Beautiful and peaceful at Grotto Bay

Alta displays what it is to be hospitable. The little things that make a difference like having chocolate`s on the bed and milk in the fridge. Also her knowledge of the Grotto Bay

Naweekverblyf in Molly Hawk Place om na die blomme in die omgewing te kyk.

In ons poging om geskikte verblyf te vind in die omgewing van Darling om blomme te kyk, het ons op verblyf in Molly Hawk Place afgekom. Die omgewing is fantasties en baie veilig. Die verblyf was egter nie 100% wat ons verwag het nie. Dit is definitief nie geskik vir meer as twee grootmense nie. Die steil trappe na die boonste vlak is definitief nie vir bejaarde mense nie en behoort uitgelig te word. Die gashere was aanvanklik wonderlik vriendelik en behulpsaam, maar alles het die laaste dag met ons vertrek verander met 'n onverklaarbare angstigheid van ons gashere af dat ons sou vertrek sonder om ons rekening te vereffen. Dit het 'n bietjie van 'n slegte smaak gelaat en ons soos skelms laat voel.

Weekend stay in Molly Hawk Place to look at the flowers in the area.

In our effort to find suitable accommodation in the vicinity of Darling for flower viewing, we came across accommodation in Molly Hawk Place. The environment is fantastic and very safe. However, the stay was not 100% what we expected. It is definitely not suitable for more than two adults. The steep stairs to the upper level are definitely not for the elderly and should be highlighted. The hosts were initially wonderfully friendly and helpful, but everything changed on the last day when we left with an inexplicable anxiety from our hosts that we would leave without settling our bill. It left a bit of a bad taste and made us feel like crooks.

Thank you for the feedback. Sorry to hear that the accommodation was not to your satisfaction, we will endeavor to make some improvements. The staircase to the mezzanine level is however clearly depicted in the photos on both websites. There seems to be some misunderstanding or miscommunication, but payment for accommodation is due before, or the latest on the day of arrival and not after departure, hence our intervention.
