Delicious!

Lovely house! We had an amazing time! The house is beautiful and the perfect size for a family of 5 on holiday. And the view is exceptional! We enjoyed the bird life and all the butterflies. Your hosting skills are very good, and the cleaner is a joy! We are looking forward to visiting again!

Tranquil and relaxing.

Very comfortable and felt like it was 'Ons Hysie' for a week! Owners are thoughtful and generous, we really appreciated the extra small things like receiving the loadshedding schedule in advance. The stacking door that opens all the way was our favourite feature, it's lovely to feel like you invite the ocean into the kitchen as you cook.

'n Wegbreek om te onthou.

Die ondervinding vanaf aanvanklike bespreking, bevestiging, deurlopende kommunikasie vanaf 'host' was ongelooflik goed. Die foto's is presies wat jy kry en soveel meer. As ek nou na die foto's kyk besef ek die 'real deal' is nog beter as wat jy op die foto sien. Alles wat jy benodig in die huis is daar om jou verblyf gemaklik te maak. Die loadshedding het nie gepla nie want daar is ligte in die kamers en sitkamer/kombuis. Die uitsig is ongelooflik en die huis is wonderlik ingerig. Ek beveel dit vir enigeen aan wat wil wegbreek.

A getaway to remember.

The experience from initial booking, confirmation, ongoing communication from 'host' was incredibly good. The photos are exactly what you get and so much more. When I look at the photos now, I realize that the 'real deal' is even better than what you see in the photo. Everything you need in the house is there to make your stay comfortable. The loadshedding did not bother because there are lights in the rooms and living room/kitchen. The view is amazing and the house is wonderfully decorated. I recommend it to anyone looking to get away.

Ons het heerlik gekuier in n gemaklike, goed toegeruste huis, wat 'n lieflike uitsig het.

Die huis het alle geriewe wat 'n mens benodig. Dit is netjies en skoon. Die sleutel-oorgee-meganisme is gemaklik en die eienaars is baie vriendelik en gasvry. Die uitsig kry 'n mens by min ander plekke en daarmee saam 'n stukkie natuur met voëltjies, 'n steenbokkie en ander besoekers sommer naby die voordeur. Dit is 'n weer-besoek-plek hierdie!

We had a wonderful time in a comfortable, well-equipped house, which has a lovely view.

The house has all the amenities one needs. It is neat and clean. The key handover mechanism is convenient and the owners are very friendly and hospitable. You get the view in few other places and with it a piece of nature with birds, a ibex and other visitors right near the front door. This is a re-visit place!

Fantasties.

Wat 'n heerlike vakansiehuis met 'n pragtige uitsig oor fynbos en die see. Wat is beter as om met 'n lekker glas wyn op die gras te sit en die son te sien ondergaan oor die pragtige see en fynbos. Kinders kon heerlik op grasperk speel en in die strate fietsry. Willie is 'n uitstekende gasheer wat uit sy pad gegaan het om ons te help. Baie dankie. Ons sal graag weer kom.

Fantastic.

What a lovely holiday home with a beautiful view over fynbos and the sea. What is better than sitting on the grass with a nice glass of wine and watching the sun set over the beautiful sea and fynbos. Children had a great time playing on the lawn and cycling in the streets. Willie is an excellent host who went out of his way to help us. Thank you very much. We would love to come again.

Heerlik gekuier. Nie groot huis nie maar heerlik dat dit voel jy kuier tuseen fynbos en met see in die agtergrond.

Dink 'n ingeboude braai sal fantasties wees aangesien brand gevaar 'n probleem is as wind waai met buite weber braai.

Had a great time. Not a big house, but lovely that it feels like you are hanging out among fynbos and with the sea in the background.

Think a built in braai would be fantastic as fire risk is an issue when the wind blows with outdoor weber braai.

Heerlik gekuier met 'n see-uitsig.

Ons het verskriklik lekker gebly, so dat ons sommer 'n ekstra nag by ons besoek bygevoeg het. Die reservaat is lieflik stil en rustig. Alhoewel die see 'n kort entjie se stap is, is die see-uitsig onbelemmerd en die deure wat oopmaak skep 'n lieflike gevoel van ruimte en buite wees. Die gashere was maklik bereikbaar en akkommoderend. Sal beslis weer 'n draai gaan maak.

Great time with a sea view.

We had such a great stay that we simply added an extra night to our visit. The reserve is lovely quiet and peaceful. Although the sea is a short walk away, the sea view is unobstructed and the doors that open create a lovely sense of space and being outdoors. The hosts were easy to reach and accommodating. Will definitely visit again.

Heerlik! Onverbeterlik.

As 'n familie kon ons saam tyd spandeer wat ons rêrig baie nodig gehad het! Die huis is 'n regte "kuierhuis" aangesien die kombuis en leefarea oopplan is en uitloop op die grasperk. Almal is heeltyd bymekaar. 'n Ingeboude braai sou dalk lekker wees (daar is 'n Weber), maar omdat die wind aan die Weskus maar onvoorspelbaar is, was dit gerieflik om die braai te kon skuif.

Delicious! Incorrigible.

As a family we were able to spend some much needed time together! The house is a real "visiting house" as the kitchen and living area are open plan and open onto the lawn. Everyone is together all the time. A built-in braai might be nice (there is a Weber), but because the wind on the West Coast is unpredictable, it was convenient to be able to move the braai.

Hi Elisna

Ons is so dankbaar julle het dit geniet.
Ons spaar nog vir die stoep wat aangebou moet word, wat in lekker beskutte ingeboude braaier gaan he.

Een van die dae.

Alles wat mooi is vir julle vorentoe.

The place does exactly what the name says, you feel like it's your home.

I can't wait to go back. I love that they have a Tupperware cupboard.
