We always enjoy our self-catering visits to Yzerfontein.

We enjoyed our stay, the accommodation was very well equipped with everything you may need. A super outside area as well where we could relax and braai. The DSTV was a bonus on the one rainy day we had.

Anne, thank you for your kind words. You and Dave were such lovely guests and will always be welcomed back should you choose to.

Veilige woonstel met gawe gasvrou.

Raaswater is netjiese, skoon, goed toegeruste woonstel. June het ons verwelkom met 'n heerlike vars brood en vars rose uit haar tuin in elke vertrek.

Absolutely fantastic.

The owner June was super fantastic. The flatlet was perfect. Clean, spacious and had everything we required. We received a warm welcome from June and were blessed with freshly baked bread. She also referred us to lots of eating places. The flatlet is situated in a nice quiet area near the sea. Would definitely be back.

Rustigheid, gasvryheid, ruim woonstel met puik geriewe is 'n wenner.

Het 'n gasvrye ontvangs gehad en die kuier was rustig en heerlik. Verblyf het al ons verwagtinge oortref en is beslis op ons lys van weer kuier.

Raaswater is the closest we've come to a perfect seaside getaway for two.

What a gem! June and her flat outdid all the rave reviews we read. We loved that it was bright and spacious, with easy access to the beach and the Schaapeiland coastal path. The green belt of natural fynbos at the back and all the visiting birds were also a treat. We had everything we needed, and more. I highly recommend that you book for longer than originally planned!

Relaxing! Amazing! Safe environment! Amazing sea views! And June is an amazing host!

Days after we confirmed our booking, June made contact, welcoming us, giving info of Yzerfontein and even sent us their loadshedding schedule, which was not needed as they have a generator! Absolutely everything was in the Raaswater cottage we stayed in, from bathrobes to yummy bread and a welcome letter. We went in 1st week of June, and was freezing cold, but the warm welcome, gas heater, wall heater panels and electric blankets were so welcoming. June even welcomed our dog Lilly, by her name. Hearing, smelling and seeing the sea from our cottage was beyond words. Raaswater is highly recommended for sure. We will definitely be back for more stays, no expenses have been spared to make a stay a memorable one for sure.

Al geraas is die veraf gedreun van die branders.

Die ruim, ten volle toegeruste woonstel is heel privaat, maar die gasvrou is vinnig byderhand vir navrae en hulp. Dis gerieflik naby die see om met die wandelpaadjie tot by die hawe te kan stap. Die sonnige agterstoep wat teen die wind beskerm is, is ideaal om met 'n glasie wyn en 'n dik boek te kan ontspan. Die boekrak vol boeke roep hard dat ons volgende keer langer moet bly! Saadkombuisies in die bome lok voeltjies wat jy uit jou bed kan le en dophou. Dankie, June en David!

All noise is the distant roar of the waves.

The spacious, fully equipped apartment is very private, but the hostess is quickly on hand for inquiries and help. It's conveniently close to the sea to be able to walk along the walkway to the harbour. The sunny back porch, protected from the wind, is ideal for relaxing with a glass of wine and a thick book. The bookshelf full of books calls loudly for us to stay longer next time! Seed pods in the trees attract feelers that you can lie down and watch from your bed. Thank you, June and David!

Onvertbeterlike ligging en gasvrou.

Raaswater was een van die beste plekke nog waar ons oorgebly het. Van ons aankoms tot ons vertrek het was dit heerlik stil en ontspannend en June was die perfekte gasvrou. Daar was selfs 'n melktert in die kombuis om ons te verwelkom. Baie dankie vir 'n netjiese en skoon blyplek met alles wat mens nodig gehad het, selfs Netflix toe dit begin reën het! Sal beslis weer gaan!

Unbeatable location and hostess.

Raaswater was one of the best places we have ever stayed. From our arrival to our departure it was wonderfully quiet and relaxing and June was the perfect hostess. There was even a milk tart in the kitchen to welcome us. Thank you very much for a neat and clean place to stay with everything you need, even Netflix when it started to rain! Will definitely go again!

Oulik en privaat.

Ons het dit baie geniet by Raaswater. Dis privaat en net sommer 'n lekker bly-ervaring. Stapafstand na die see. Als is daar wat jy bennodig en 'n baie vriendelike gasvrou. Ons het eers na 8 aangekom en was hartlik ontvang. Die lekker vars brood en gebak en vars rose was sommer net tops!

Cute and private.

We really enjoyed it at Raaswater. It's private and just a nice living experience. Walking distance to the sea. If there is what you need and a very friendly hostess. We didn't arrive until after 8 and were warmly received. The nice fresh bread and pastries and fresh roses were just tops!

Wow!

Wow wow wow.. Dit moet een van die beste selfsorg eenhede wees waar ons al gebly het. Die ligging is uitstekend met die see as uitsig. Net 'n paar tree dan is jy by die skoon oop strand, fantasties. Die see se gerommel in die aande het 'n sagte uitwerking op jou en jy geniet 'n salige nagrus. Die braai is twee tree van die kombuis en alles is daar, tot 'n rooster. Die gasvrou, June, is een fantastiese mens. Dankie vir die brood en Portugese koekies met die aankoms. Sy is wat ons van praat, 'n mens mens. Altyd beskikbaar vir enige iets en dis asof sy jou beste vriendin is vir jare en jare. Die plekkie is baie netjies en skoon. Dit voel regtig of jy by die huis is, self jou motor slaap agter 'n deur toegesluit. June, jy sal ons weer sien en dis 'n belofte. Dankie vir generator toe Eskom besluit het om ons liggies af te sit. Ons wens jou net van die beste vir die toekoms en hoop jou besigheid groei van sterkte tot sterkte.

Wow!

Wow wow wow.. This has to be one of the best self catering units we have stayed at. The location is excellent with the sea as a view. Just a few steps then you are at the clean open beach, fantastic. The sea's rumbling in the evenings has a gentle effect on you and you enjoy a blissful night's rest. The braai is two steps from the kitchen and everything is there, right down to a grill. The hostess, June, is one fantastic person. Thank you for the bread and Portuguese cookies on arrival. She is what we are talking about, a human being. Always available for anything and it's like she's been your best friend for years and years. The place is very neat and clean. It really feels like you are at home, even your car is sleeping behind a locked door. June, you will see us again and that's a promise. Thank you for generator when Eskom decided to put us off lightly. We wish you only the best for the future and hope your business grows from strength to strength.

Beste ervaring.

Tannie June het ons laat welkom voel voor ons nog daar aangekom het. Gasvryheid in oorvloed. Dit was koelerig met die seelug, maar met Tannie June se opregte verwelkoming en vriendelikheid regdeur die hele naweek was dit sommer warm. Alles en meer is in Raaswater. Ek verstaan waar die naam Raaswater vandaan kom, met die wonderlikste geluide van die branders. Dit was so lekker ek wou nie eers terug huis toe nie. Baie dankie Tannie June, dit was ons beste wegbreek ooit.

Aunt June made us feel welcome before we even got there. Hospitality galore. It was cool with the sea air, but with Aunt June's genuine welcome and kindness throughout the whole weekend it was just warm. Everything and more is in Raaswater. I understand where the name Raaswater comes from, with the most amazing sounds of the waves. It was so good I didn't even want to go home. Thank you so much Aunt June, it was our best getaway ever.

We enjoyed our stay at Raaswater tremendously, apartment is fully equipped with everything you can possibly need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Location is excellent, five minute walk to the beach. We were welcomed by our friendly host June, on arrival and she checked-up regularly over the weekend to ensure we are okay. Beautiful partial sea view from the living area and falling asleep listing to the sea, was just what we needed. We are looking forward to a next visit to Raaswater.

Fantastie, asemrowend, en die vriendelikheid van June was soos ou vriendskap.

Wel ons het met 'n rowwe begin afgeskop. Nadat ons by June gekom het en als reggestel het was dit rerig onbeskryflik lekker en rustig. June het dit absoluut die moeite werk gemaak. Sy het vars rose in elke vertrek gesit, dit het gevoel of ons by 'n 5-ster-lodge ingeboek het. Asemrowende klanke van natuur en water. Dit sal definitief nie die laaste keer wees wat ons gaan nie. June, spesiale dank aan jou en jou vriendelikheid.

Well we got off to a rough start. After we got to June and fixed everything, it was really indescribably nice and peaceful. June made it absolutely worth it. She put fresh roses in every room, it felt like we checked into a 5 star lodge. Breathtaking sounds of nature and water. It definitely won't be the last time we go.

Stil en rustig, gasvryheid uit die boonste rakke.

As jy wil wegkom uit die stadsgewoel, is Raaswater en Yzerfontein net die plek vir jou. Die woonstel is baie goed ingerig met ekstras soos 'n verlengkoord, haardroër en strykyster. Die gasvrou deel graag meer inligting oor Yzerfontein en ek is baie gasvry ontvang met 'n ietsie uit die Rosemead bakkery. (NS: Maak seker jy maak daar ook 'n draai, jy sal nie spyt wees nie). Baie dankie vir die heerlike tydjie!

The apartment is very well furnished with extras such as an extension cord, hairdryer and iron. The hostess is happy to share more information about Yzerfontein and I was very hospitably received with something from the Rosemead bakery. (PS: Make sure you visit there too, you won't regret it).

As jy voel om jou weg te breek en te herlaai is dit die plek, daar kan mens asemskep.

Daar is nie juis veel te sê oor Raaswater behalwe dat die gasvryheid en sorg boekdele spreek. Ek en my geliefde het dit so geniet om net 'n slag asem te haal. Ons was verbaas dat June al die vuur vir ons aangesteek het toe ons daar land. As daar meer sterre was as net 5 sou ons Raaswater vir elke aspek 10 uit 5 gee. Sal vir seker weer daar gaan oorbly en dit aanbeveel vir enige egpaar wat 'n ruskans soek en verdien.

There is not much to say about Raaswater except that the hospitality and care speak volumes. My lover and I enjoyed it so much to just take a breath. We were surprised that June had already lit the fire for us when we landed there. If there were more stars than just 5 we would give Raaswater 10 out of 5 for every aspect. Will definitely stay there again and recommend it to any couple looking for a well earned break.
