Perfect for a reasonable 'halfway' stopover on a private or business trip.

Really clean and neat 'home style' accommodation. We stayed in the two rooms with shared shower and restroom in a little building outside the main house and it was wonderfully quiet. Feels like staying with family or friends.

Ons verblyf was fantasies!

Baie dankie Francois en Marie vir julle gasvryheid en vriendelikheid. Ons het sommer dadelik tuis gevoel. Alles was perfek skoon en netjies. Warm water atyd beskikbaar en voorsiening is getref vir beurtkrag. Ons beveel hierdie verblyf ten sterkste aan vir enige iemand wat wil gaan uitrus. Ons het so lekker gekuier - sal baie graag weer wil doen.

Thank you very much Francois and Marie for your hospitality and kindness. We felt right at home. Everything was perfectly clean and tidy. Hot water available at all times and provisions have been made for load shedding. We highly recommend this accommodation to anyone who wants to rest. We had such a great time - would love to do it again.

Hi Tinet
Bly julle het dit geniet! Met die groot reën, is die parkering en omdraai 'n bietjie van 'n probleem gewees. Ons is besig om te kyk daarna, maar dit is meeste van die tyd darem nie 'n probleem nie

Baie lekker rustige atmosfeer, vriendlike gasheer en gasvrou wat ons baie tuis laat voel het.

Ons het ons kuier baie geniet by Oceandivers Lodge. Ons het gegaan met 'n verwagting om weg te breek van die besige Johanneburg en dis presies wat ons gekry het by Oceandivers Lodge. Francoius en Marie is besonderse mense. Sal enige tyd weer verblyf by hulle bespreek. Umkomaas is 'n klein dorpie en die strande is baie rustig. Ons het veilig gevoel.

We really enjoyed our stay at Oceandivers Lodge. We went with the expectation of breaking away from busy Johanneburg and that's exactly what we got at Oceandivers Lodge. Francoius and Marie are special people. Will book accommodation with them again anytime. Umkomaas is a small town and the beaches are very peaceful. We felt safe.

Oceandivers is 'n fantastiese plek om by oor te bly.

Woorde kan nie beskryf hoe wonderlik, skoon en netjies Oceandivers is nie. Francois is die beste en het regtig soos 'n vriend geword met die 2 nagte daar, hulle diens is fantasties en die uitkyk oor die see is die beste wat ek nog gesien het. Dis baie veilig daar en ek dink hulle is baie te goedkoop vir so 'n kwaliteit plek wat hulle daar het. Ek gaan binnekort my gesin vat en vir seker by Oceandivers boek. Puik diens en as ek gee hulle 100% vir alles. Julle doen baie goed, Francois, en ek kan julle met vrymoedigheid aanbeveel. So rustig daar en regtig so tuis gevoel. Dankie vir alles.

Oceandivers is a fantastic place to stay.

Words cannot describe how wonderful, clean and tidy Oceandivers is. Francois is the best and really became like a friend with the 2 nights there, their service is fantastic and the view over the sea is the best I have ever seen. It's very safe there and I think they are way too cheap for such a quality place they have there. I am going to take my family soon and book with Oceandivers for sure. Great service and if I give them 100% for everything. You are doing very well, Francois, and I can confidently recommend you. So peaceful there and really felt so at home. Thanks for everything.

Dit is 'n lieflike plekkie!

Ons kamer was groot en die bed gerieflik. Baie smaakvol gemeubileerde sitkamer en pragtige badkamer. Die koffie/tee en yskoue water was onbeperk. Ons kon onder die lapa op die dek sit en die na die see kyk - die uitsig was perfek. Die gasheer en -vrou is baie aangename mense en ons sal verseker weer 'n draai daar gaan maak.

Baie netjies en skoon.

Dit is nie lekker om badkamer en slaapkamer nie in een vertrek te beleef nie, geen privaatheid nie. Geen kaste vir jou klere in kamer nie. Nie gerieflik om met ander persone die kombuis en sitkamer te deel nie jy het nie jou eie geriewe en TV nie. Geen lugversorging in kamers nie of enige ketel om water te kook vir koffie nie, daar is ook nie koppies nie so jy moet gebruik maak van die gesamentlike vertrek waar almal gaan so jy moet altyd netjies wees.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Very neat and clean.

It is not nice not to experience bathroom and bedroom in one room, no privacy. No closets for your clothes in room. Not convenient to share the kitchen and living room with other people, you don't have your own facilities and TV. No air conditioning in rooms or any kettle to boil water for coffee, there are also no cups so you have to use the common room where everyone goes so you always have to be tidy.

Beste Johannes,

Ons is baie jammer dat ons nie aan jou verwagtinge voldoen het nie. Die webtuiste adverteer egter nie die fasiliteite wat jou die meeste grief nie. Ons maak nie aanspraak daarop dat die kamers luversorging het nie en ook nie dat daar 'n en-suite badkamer is in die kamer wat julle versoek het nie.

Wat die gedeelde geriewe aanbetref, skenk ons oorweging daaraan om elke kamer met 'n ketel te voorsien maar dit sal ongelukig ook 'n yskas in elke kamer beteken en ons wil nie graag in die selfsorg bedryf beweeg nie.

Weereens baie jammer dat julle nie jul verblyf na verwagting geniet het nie.

Groete,
Francois en Marie
