The place was not cleaned properly, dust and some cobwebs were noted. The bedding needs to be replaced, looking worn. The place is very rustic.

Some rooms look okay and some needs refurbishment or an update.

Nice location, but needs some TLC.

The room smelt like someone had been smoking in it before us, the room is a lot smaller than it looks in the pics. The kitchen setup and cutlery and crockery are something I'd expect to find in an Airbnb. Comfy bed and great view. Long, steep staircase to reach the room.

Baie mooi uitsig van die see.

Dit is 'n baie aangename plek om te rus. Die eenheid is net baie basies toegerus. Geen gemakstoele nie. Kombuisgereedskap baie basies en vloermatjies baie oud en glyerig. Vir die prys kan hulle eenheid opgradeer. Net een waaier in die slaapkamer. Maar staf was baie vriendelik en opgemaak vir die ongerief van eenheid.

It is a very pleasant place to rest. The unit is only very basic equipped. No easy chairs. Kitchen utensils very basic and floor mats very old and slippery. For the price they can upgrade unit. Only one fan in the bedroom. But staff were very friendly and made up for the inconvenience of unit.

Vreeslik geniet.

Lekker plek om by te bly, ligging is perfek naby winkels en strande. Het 'n stel afgetrap met inboek twee-uur, mense was nie daar om ons in te boek nie en toe hul daar kom om ons 'n halfuur later in te boek was die plek nog nie eers skoon nie. Die vloere was vuil, vuil skottelgoed het rondgestaan, beddens was onopgemaak en die badkamer was vuil. Ons het weer geloop en het die eienaar gekontak met die ongerief van plek wat nie reg was nie en die laat inboek, die probleem is opgelos verder het ons baie lekker gebly .

Enjoyed terribly.

Nice place to stay, location is perfect near shops and beaches. Kicked off a set with check in at two o'clock, people weren't there to check us in and when they came to check us in half an hour later the place wasn't even clean. The floors were dirty, dirty dishes were left around, beds were unmade and the bathroom was dirty. We walked again and contacted the owner with the inconvenience of a place that was not right and the late check-in, the problem was solved otherwise we had a very nice stay.

Reg by die see.

Die woonstelletjie is heel gemaklik en gebruikersvriendelik. Ongelukkig was die plek vuil. Ons moes alles was voor ons dit kon gebruik, selfs die buitebraai se as en vuil rooster was nog daar. Het dit aangemeld, maar kon eers die volgende dag uitsorteer word. Was ook belowe dat die skoonmaker die volgende dag so inkom vir basiese skoonmaak (geen skottelgoed), maar dit het nie gebeur nie. Dit was redelik lekker, en as dit skoon is sal ek dit aanbeveel. Andersins nie.

Kan dit in een woord opsom: nagmerrie!

Die reuk slaan jou onderste bo as jy inkom. Moes incense-stokkies koop en brand vir die reuk. Die gordyne is gemuf, die badkamer dak is gemuf, die stort werk nie, die badwater kon nie uitloop. Moes plunger herhaaldelik gebruik. Stompies op die stoep. Slaapbank baie vuil en ongemaklik. Kombuistoebehore so vuil lyk of muf op dit sit. Ongemaklike roete om by die woonstel te kom. Was woonstel A1. Was glad nie hoe ek my laaste naweek van my vakansie wou afsluit nie.

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

Can sum it up in one word: nightmare!

The smell hits you when you enter. Had to buy incense sticks and burn for the smell. The curtains are moldy, the bathroom roof is moldy, the shower doesn't work, the bath water couldn't drain. Had to use plunger repeatedly. Stumps on the porch. Sofa bed very dirty and uncomfortable. Kitchen utensils look so dirty or have mold on them. Inconvenient route to get to the apartment. Was apartment A1. Was not at all how I wanted to end my last weekend of my vacation.

Dear Lindie,
We looked for marks on the sheets and could not find any. Bath towels are supplied by request only as we are self-catering and guests need to bring their own bath towels and toiletries. Being so close to the Coast we leave our TV's on and switch the DStv off due to the moisture. Please on your next visit to us if you could come to us with issues that you find, as we do reside on the premises so we could address the matter.
Thank you

Awesome view, awesome host, awesome!

Although Leon and his team rates their accommodation as a 2 star, I would give them a 5 star in hospitality. We have taken our 3 small dogs along and with the space we might have missed inside on some flats, we have enjoyed this green forest garden thoroughly outside. The steps in the front down to the rocks and beach were fantastic convenient and we would recommend this stay to someone that has no fuss about 5 star an luxury. Hats of to Leon, Nicole and their cleaning staff, and their lovely four pawed friend.

Thank you for the feedback.

We only allow a maximum of 2 small dogs and you bought 3. The maids were very reluctant to go into the unit, as the dogs were left in the unit whilst you guys went out. It makes it awkward for the maids to go and clean while the dogs are in the unit. The sheets were unfortunately ruined and messed with dog pee and dog poo.

Absoluut fantasties!

Die ligging is fantasties, ons het op die balkon gesit en dolfyne in die branders gewaar. Die eienaars voer verskillende voëls in hul tuin en dis regtig goed om te sien dat mense wel die moeite doen daarmee. Vir ons was dit goeie waarde vir geld omrede die ligging die hoofsaak was. Die eenheid het in ons behoeftes voorsien en ek sal definitief weer daar tuis gaan!

I would love to recommend that place to a friend, if only they could have more privacy.

The place was beautiful and very clean and I loved the location.

Dear Ishaara,

Thank you for your generous response. It was a pleasure having you and your family at Ocean Gorge and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. With regards to the privacy, I would suggest you take a bigger unit or the Pebble Beach Flat which is in a complex next door to us. Hope to see you soon.

Rustig.

Ons het ons verblyf geniet. Dit was ok vir twee dae. Die feit dat daar nie 'n plek is om gemaklik te sit nie was 'n probleem. Dis 'n oord vir jong mense.

Lekkerste vakansie!

Leon en Nichole is so gasvry en ons het so tuis gevoel! Ek en my 11-jarige seuntjie was daar en hy het dit so geniet. Ons het heerlik gebly, veilig gevoel en daar was net vriendelikheid van almal af. Dis naby alles, by die strand, naby winkels en 2 restaurante. Kon strand toe loop wanneer ons wil en gaan of visvang op die rotse. Ons kom definitief weer Ocean Gorge toe!

Baie mooi uitsig, sentraal. Maak mooi skoon en dis 'n wenner.

Pragtige uitsig. Stil tog plek vir kinders om te speel. Dalk kan daar aandag gegee word aan die kokkerotte. Ook kan die vensterbanke en kombuis afgestof word, ou sand en spinnerakke was oral in die kombuis en dit het gewemel van kokkerotte. Ons het nie daar gekook nie, ek sou ook te vies wees daarvoor. Ek het gif gaan koop en gespuit - dalk nou beter? Daar was slegs 'n waaier in die kamer. Dit was op 'n "timer", ongelooflik warm!

Beautiful view. Quiet and yet enough space for children to play. Maybe they can pay attention to the cockroaches. Also dust the windowsills and kitchen, old sand and cobwebs were everywhere in the kitchen and it was alive with cockroaches. We didn't cook there, I would be too irritated with that. I bought poison and sprayed it - maybe it's better now? There was only a fan in the room. It was on a timer, incredibly hot!

Dear Wanda
Thank you for your constructive criticism. We do apologise for the inconvenience regarding the cockroaches and cobwebs.
We do get flying cockroaches as we are in an rustic and indigenous environment, they are classed as the family of the cockroaches and fairly different from them. The cobwebs are spun within seconds as to living on the coast. It's a pity you did not mention to us about the cockroaches and cobwebs at times you where chatting to our staff. We do have permanent maids that would have sorted it out.
Thank you.

Dirty, non-existent service, broken fixtures, TV connections, lights, dog faeces all over the lawn, but decent view.

A very disappointing experience. Family booked at two other local B&Bs for the same weekend, there was no comparison in terms of quality and value for money. I cannot recommend neither the accommodation nor the manageress any less.

Ocean Gorge Seafront Getaways 's response

Dear Nic,

Unfortunately, you arrived a day earlier unexpectedly. The booking was from the 11.11.2017-13.11.2017 but arrived on the 10.11.2017. Fortunately, there was nobody in that unit as it was undergoing maintenance and therefore we made an exception and was able to help you with your early arrival. Our management en-devoured to be of assistance with regards to your date of arrival. You booked for 4 adults only and we noticed you had an extra guest staying over Saturday night with an extra vehicle, which we did not bill you for. With regards to the dog faeces, it does get removed daily. We are Pet-friendly. Our Self Catering accommodation is serviced on a daily basis.

Thank you.

Room was nice, but bathroom door broken, oven and stoves not working (I had to go into another flat to cook), no real action from the owner.

Although price was good, it was in comparison with another establishment we stayed at, quite terrible. Nothing was checked before we came. The first thing the owner did was offer us a room that is twice as expensive, apparently better for my mom, but it was obvious they were aware there is an issue and tried to get more money instead of offer the flat at the same rate. The bathroom door came off its hinges, the stove and oven was not working, the cutlery was only for three people yet the flat is for 4 people. I was truly disappointed.

Ocean Gorge Seafront Getaways 's response

Dear Sarka

Thank you for the constructive criticism. We do apologise for the oven not working on your arrival for your 2 night stay. A brand new Full oven/Hob has been replaced in the unit the morning you left. The staff did come and speak to you guys about the stove and you said its fine you'll be going out and not to worry about replacing the stove as you you guys only staying for 2 nights and you wont be using the stove as you are coming back late on your second evening. We did offer bigger units which would have been more suitable for 4 big adults. Unfortunately the Granny Chalet (same Cost) had too many steps and the other luxury unit was too expensive for you. The sliding door was in place when you arrived. Sorry you did not ask the staff to show you where the extra cutlery is. Please thank your mom for the lovely sample pancake from her home country she made for me just before you guys left.

It was a wonderfully peaceful and private visit with the most beautiful views.

We stayed in the honeymoon suite. It was very neat, open and cosy and very private. We did enjoy the little pathways to the rocks and the private beach when low tide and spent many hours walking on the rocks, looking at the marine life in the pools and just enjoying the sea view. There is a large tidal pool to the left side, but the weather wasn't too great so we weren't to brave to go snorkling. Close to the attractions, Balito shopping malls and the Balito beach walk ways. Thompson bay were just around the corner with the hole in the wall. Great stay all together.

Ek het persoonlik telefonies met die dame Sandra Arlow van hulle maatskapy in verbinding getree. Ons eenheede word daagliks skoongemaak. Deur abnormaale sterk wind kon daar n bietjie sand ingewaai het voordat die 2 werkers saans teruggekeur het. Ons het 3 keer met die werkers gesels in hulle 3 dae verblyf en niks geen klagtes van sand of die skoonmaak van die woonstel was aan ons genoem nie.

Die skoonmaker het nie haar werk gedoen nie. Daar was "take-aways" in die oond van die vorige mense wat daar oorgebly het en 'n onaangename reuk veroorsaak het. 'n Krap-poot op die bed. Geen handdoeke wat goed sal wees as dit vooraf gesê is. Toilet papier wat heeltemal te min is .Ek moes gaan vra vir nog net nadat die bediende daar was. Plek is goed maar die basiese word nie reg gedoen nie.

Die dame wat skoon maak het per ongeluk vergeet om die boksie uit die oond te verwyder wat die vorige mense vir haar na gelaat het. So so jammer. 'Self Catering" beteken bring jou eie handdoeke en ons voorsien net die eerste toilet rol. As julle net aan ons genoem het dat julle Bad handdoeke benodig sou ons dit met graagte vir jou geleen het!!. Jammer vir al die ongerief wat julle moes deurmaak..

Lekker gebly maar plek kort aandag. Geen lugversorging en dit was bietjie warm.

Ons het in Pebble Beach Flat no 1 gebly. Die ligging is awesome en die uitsig perfek. Naby strand en swembad in kompleks is definitief 'n bonus. Die woonstel was gemaklik maar sonder lugversorging word dit ondraaglik warm. Die badkamer kort aandag en is baie klein (okei vir 1 persoon). Die DStv was aan maar afstandbeheer het nie gewerk. Kon TV nie afsit nie en hulle kan gerus meer toebehore in die kombuis sit. Vir die prys het ons lekker gebly maar die plek kort bietjie aandag en hulle voorsien nie eers toiletpapier nie. Die bestuurder het langs die draad gestaan by die plek langsaan en my geroep - baie onprofessioneel! Skoonmaakdiens was elke dag eers 2 uur daar wat 'n ongeleë tyd is veral as jy kinders het. Die skoonmaker was baie deeglik en alhoewel hulle net vloere was en bietjie skoonmaak op die stoep, was dit okei. Ek sal in elk geval die plek slegs aanbeveel vir 'n maksimum van 2 mense en buite seisoen as dit nie so warm is.

Nice stay but place needs attention. No air conditioning and it was a bit hot.

We stayed in Pebble Beach Flat no 1. The location is awesome and the view perfect. Close to beach and pool in complex is definitely a bonus. The apartment was comfortable but without air conditioning it gets unbearably hot. The bathroom needs attention and is very small (okay for 1 person). The DStv was on but the remote control did not work. Couldn't turn off TV and they can put more appliances in the kitchen. For the price we had a nice stay but the place needs some attention and they don't even provide toilet paper. The manager stood by the wire at the place next door and called me - very unprofessional! Cleaning service was only there for 2 hours every day which is an inconvenient time especially if you have children. The cleaner was very thorough and although they only washed floors and some cleaning on the porch, it was okay. In any case, I would only recommend the place for a maximum of 2 people and out of season when it's not that hot.

Hallo Marnay. Baie Dankie vir jou aanbeveeling en komplimente
Jammer, ons voorsien net die eerste rol toilet papier. (Self Catering x 2 ster)
Die afstandbeheer was foutief en mens moes een meter loop om die TV af te skakel. Ons beveel mense aan om nie TV's af te skakel nie, omrede die vogtigheid van die see en dankie dat julle die TV aan gelos het.
Jammer dat ons nie jou telefonies gevra het om ons by die heining te ontmoet. Geen antwoord van jou foon. Dit is ongeveer 300 meter op en af straat langs om vir jou 'n ekstra toilet rolletjie te bring.
As jy aan ons genoem het dat julle ons in kennis sal stel wanneer die skoonmaak mense kan in kom sou ons n plan probeer maak het om julle kom en late te bevredig met die skoon maak dame.
Ons voorsien waaiers in die kamers en maak staat op die koel see lug wat van naby in waai. Jammer dat ons op die oomblik met hitte golwe en droogte sit wat 100 jaar laas gebeur het in KZN.
Dankie vir jou terugvoering, sien julle buite seisoen!

Fairly - completely self-sustaining.

The accommodation was reasonable but feels in a certain sense that it is a bit 'over priced' for what is offered. Just found that the path to the apartment is a bit dangerous (especially if people are a bit elderly) and that it is not safe for people who may even have a small baby. The view was beautiful and the weather nice.

Uiters teleurstellend.

Die kamer was baie vuil. Ons moes gaan skoonmaakmiddels koop om die kamer skoon te maak, Handy Andy en Dettol. Daar was nog sigaret-as op die bedtafeltjie. Die vloer was vuil. Die toilet sitplek was aan die onderkant vuil. Die deken oor die bed was gebruik deur vorige gaste. Die teëls rondom die bad en wasbak was vuil. Die kamer het nie lekker geruik nie. Wanneer jy tydens hoogwater afstap na die see is jy teen die rotse vasgekeer. Jy kan nie links of regs nie, net terug op. Die foto's op die webblad is misleidend. Wat jy op die foto sien lyk goed, wat jy kry is egter 'n ander storie. Wat meer kan ek sê?

Very disappointing.

The room was dirty. We had to go and buy cleaning products to clean the room, Handy Andy and Dettol. There was still cigarette ash on the bedside table. The floor was dirty. The toilet seat was dirty underneath. The sheet on the bed had been used by previous guests. The tiles around the bath and basin were dirty. The room didn't smell nice. If you walk down to the sea during high tide you get trapped against the rocks. You cannot go left or right, just straight back up. The photos on the web is very misleading. What you see on the photo looks good, what you get is a different story. What more can I say?

Thank you for the constructive criticism. On arrival at Ocean Gorge one of the staff members had taken you up to your unit and your unit was given to you in a good condition. The units are serviced daily. You were informed about access to the coastal pathway and it was mentioned to you that it is only accessible when its low tide. Its a pity you did not come and speak to us about theses issues. Thank you.

Never in our entire life! A very bad experience!

Firstly we arrived at the resort where the owner welcomed us. No secure parking or gates on premises and 6 very small parking for small vehicles. The owner and his wife did not take us to the apartment as it had very steep steps. They were busy with construction and alterations to the one apartment. Our apartment was very dangerously accessed with a long wooden object supporting the window where they were busy with the alteration. Should you not be wary you will bump into wood pole. Pictures are not near what you receive on arrival. We went up to the apartment as they just showed the way. Our experience on self catering service is that the apartment gets cleaning every morning with dishes done. Bed was made although no dishes and a condom rapper was laying by our front door. The palm trees were so large that in the evening with the wind blowing against the sliding door you could not get rest. The owner had balloons on the private area where he lived - obvious occassion or party therefore his family or friends took up most of the parking space. No comfortable bed at all - very small for 2 people and to be honest you were scratching and itching the whole time, no neatness or cleanliness. The 3rd early evening 2 guests arrived in the apartment next to us. Our front door was closed, but we heard everything that was said. The owner's wife offered them toiletries and towels when she escorted them to their apartment. None of that was offered to us. We had to seek other accommodation that same night and left the resort on good neat foot, posted the apartment keys in the post box. Nobody called us concerned or to enquire why we left. We had a very bad experience and will never return nor give this place as reference to anyone. If we could rate this establishment with zero stars we would.

Dear gates Mr and Mrs Daniel Hattingh.

You forgot to mention security cameras all over and a reputable security company monitoring our premises 24 hours a day and night. Parking bays are all standard according to municipal regulations with 2 double bays included for those old long cars like yours. Mr Hatting you were recorded on our cameras parking your car comfortably on your return home that night together with 3 other vehicles that attended a small birthday celebration. So glad you were wary of that small "wood pole" I did explained to you that we are doing small renovations when you were showing me pictures of the protected Rainbow Rass fish you had caught. Told your wife that the maids will wash your tea and coffee mugs at a small fee for them. People take advantage of the maids and leave so much dishes that is why we leave it up to tenants to negotiate with the maids regarding payment for dishes. The condom packet must have been yours or the wind blew it upstairs. Are u sure it was not a balloon rapper. Just such a pity you did not mention all your grievances to us when we had those friendly chats Mr and Mrs Hattingh.

Dit was werklik 'n aangename ondervinding en ons sal definitief weer so maak. Ek dink Shaka's Rock is awesome en pragtig en bied soveel verskillende opsies. Dit was 'n ware wegbreek-naweek gewees. Dankie LekkeSlaap.

I would definitely recommend.

Leon is a real host and made us feel very much at home. The unit is very neat and clean and very accessible. One is alone but also feels part. It was truly a pleasant experience and we will definitely do it again. I think Shaka's Rock is awesome and beautiful and offers so many different options. It had been a real getaway weekend. Thank you LekkeSlaap.

Not impressed.

The location is absolutely gorgeous. The views are incredible, and you are literally on top of the ocean. Beautiful place. The accommodation was rough, though. There is no living room, just two plastic chairs next to the bunk bed, the kitchen is a mess with unmatching (and dirty) cutlery, thus we had to go out to dinner every night. We also never had a chance to use the braai area, as there are no dedicated ones, it is pretty much first come first serve. The sheets and bedding are not up to standard either.

Die plek kort aandag.

Ons het in Pebble Beach gebly, nie in Ocean Gorge self nie. Dis 'n woonstel langs Ocean Gorge wat aan die eienaar behoort. Die akkommodasie het opknappingswerk nodig en 'n ordentlike skoonmaak.

The photos must be very old.

Everything inside was very old and nothing was clean. I think some places really take advantage of people going on holiday, they know that everyone is looking for accommodation and then charge any rate. This place is not value for money.

Ocean Gorge Seafront Getaways 's response

Unfortunately these guests squeezed 7 people 2 paying family's (sharing costs) with 3 kids into the Captains Cabin. They wanted 7 bath towels on a daily basis and one night before their departure. They did not to hang their towels on the rail outside to dry while they went out for the day. Our maids said their place was extremely messy when they left in the mornings. The husband saw us on a daily basis and not once did he or any one else complain about anything. We even stored their bulk supply of meat in our big deep-freeze for them. Nothing whatsoever old in the Captains Cabin.

Great location, everything else could definitely use an upgrade.

Normally the honeymoon suite is something special. This one is very small, cramped and stuffy. No place to put anything, the kitchenette very under equipped and a tiny little bar fridge. Your balcony is directly above the braai area, so you get all the smoke when guests are braaing. Leon, the owner was helpful in that he found us alternative accommodation, unfortunately there was a bad leak and water dripped through the electric light fitting and also onto the kitchen counters. There was also no servicing of the units only dustbins emptied. Could definitely benefit from a good spring clean.

Fantastic view, but personnel not friendly and unit dirty.

We paid R650 per unit, which sleeps 4-5 persons. We had visitors for 3 nights from Pinetown and had to pay R950 for them. Inside the unit there is a notice for R100 per person per night and R50 for day visitors. The unit was dirty and nothing matched. The linen is old and full of stains. They are not pet friendly with no fence for the garden cottage. We had to keep our dogs inside. The owner and his employees were not very friendly. The pathway to the beach has no warning signs or proper fencing. One of our family members fell and hurt her back.

Onvergeetlike see-ervaring!!!!

Ons was werklik onvoorbereid vir waar die eenheid geleë was!!! Met hoogwater was die branders so hard dat ons die skuifdeure moes toe maak om die TV te hoor!! Daar is 'n lieflike see uitsig, alhoewel dit jammer is dat die pallisade van die uitsig belemmer, maar dit is vir veiligheidshalwe. Die eenheid is skoon en netjies en alles wat mens nodig het is daar. Die gety-poel is ongelooflik vir snorkel, met groot verskeidenheid van visse. Die eienaars is vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons sal enige tyd weer n besoek aflê!!

Unforgettable sea experience!!!!

We were truly unprepared for where the unit was located!!! At high tide the waves were so loud that we had to close the sliding doors to hear the TV!! There is a lovely sea view, although it is a pity that the palisade obstructs the view, but this is for safety. The unit is clean and tidy and everything you need is there. The tidal pool is amazing for snorkeling, with great variety of fish. The owners are friendly and helpful. We will visit again anytime!!

Dit was 'n heerlike verblyf met asemrowende uitsigte.

Die uitsig oor die see is asemrowend. Jy kan selfs die see sien van die bed af. Die padjies af na die strand toe is pragtig en baie goeie oefening. Klein hondjies is ook welkom. My Pixie het haar self gate uit geniet.

Baie mooi see-uitsigte vanaf ons woonstel. Die rustige omgewing het ons die nodige rus gegee.

'n Asemrowende uitsig oor die see wat breek oor rotse met die grasperk met braaigeriewe reg voor ons woonstel. Kinders was heeltyd buite en kon lekker speel. Die woonstel self is knap, maar goed uitgelê.

Excellent customer service

The host was very pleasant and absolutely walked the extra mile with us - we arrived very late on Friday and he didn't hesitate to stay up and wait for us.n nThe security guard was on duty every night and was very good.n nThe flat we stayed in: There were a few unpleasant things such as not enough cutlery. The coffee cups were almost all chipped. We could not walk from our flat to the beach as seen on the pictures on the website, there is a place where can go through but the gate was locked and we had to walk more than 2 blocks further on the outside of the complex to reach the sea.nnOn tv there are just the basic SABC TV channels (1.2.3) and Etv ... we just think for the price they charge, there could be some more luxury. The rate we had to pay R795.00 per night, but we understand that is the rate and we as people can decide whether to book our holiday there or not.n nOtherwise the stay was fine, just too short but we could rest.n nThanks
