We had a great time and I would really recommend this place to others.

Next time I will bring my kids with as the place accommodates everyone.

Baie onaangenaam.

Die website is baie oud. Wat hul geadverteer het en wat ons gekry het, is 2 heeltemal verskillende goed. Kamer wat hul aan ons gegee het, was glad nie volgens hul website die regte kamer nie. Hul het toe aan ons 'n ander kamer gegee, maar op die voorwaarde ons moet teen die 30ste Desember uit wees aangesien die kamer van daai datum reeds bespreek is. Hul sou ons die verskil refund. Dit is alreeds 2 weke en ons is nog glad nie ge-refund nie. Daar was ook glad nie WiFi nie. Die pin wat hul aan ons gegee het, was korrek, maar steeds die sein is so swak geen opvangs. Ons het ook nie veilig gevoel nie, aangesien die hek voor na straat permanent oopgestaan het, ek het vir jul die foto's. Die dame, Adri, wat ons gehelp het, was baie oulik en het ook aan ons gesê die website is al baie oud. So dit wat hul adverteer by jul is vals.

Very unpleasant.

The website is very old. What they advertised and what we got are 2 completely different things. The room they gave us was not the right room at all according to their website. They then gave us another room, but on the condition that we have to be out by the 30th of December as the room from that date was already booked. They would refund us the difference. It's already been 2 weeks and we still haven't been refunded at all. There was also no WiFi at all. The pin they gave us was correct, but still the signal is so weak no reception. We didn't feel safe either, as the front gate to the street was permanently open, I have the photos for you. The lady, Adri, who helped us, was very nice and also told us that the website was very old. So what they advertise with you is false.

Was baie lekker en was baie goed behandel.

Sal met graagte weer daar bespreek. Die diens was goed en Adrie het uit haar pad gegaan om die verblyf so aangenaam as moontlik vir ons te maak.

Was daar vir 'n troue. Alle plaveisel om die gastehuis is geverf met enamel-verf, uiters gevaarlik en glad, ek het geval en seergekry!

Ontbytopsies het net eiers wat verskil. Krane in kombuis en badkamers is los en loop 'n dun straaltjie. Kombuislaaie haak vas en werk glad nie. Wifi het nie gewerk en DStv het net beperkte kanale. Geen heining om swembad, en generator staan langs trampolien. Geen handreling by trappe aan die buitekant by ontvangs nie. Asblik is nooit skoongemaak in 3 dae terwyl 'n gesin van 5 die familie unit gebruik het nie. Bad skilfer af met stort binne-in bad met 'n ou gordyn. Vir 'n 4-ster gastehuis teen R2600 per dag verwag ek vir seker iets beter.

Was there for a wedding. All paving around the guest house is painted with enamel paint, extremely dangerous and slippery, I fell and got hurt!

Breakfast options only have eggs which are different. Faucets in kitchen and bathrooms are loose and run on a thin stream. Kitchen drawers get stuck and don't work at all. Wifi did not work and DStv only has limited channels. No fence around pool, and generator is next to trampoline. No handrail at outside stairs at reception. Trash was never cleaned in 3 days while a family of 5 used the family unit. Bath flakes with shower inside bath with an old curtain. For a 4-star guest house at R2600 per day, I expect something better for sure.

Plek is mooi maar kort aandag. Gordyn rail is gebreuk, teels in badkamer val uit muur.

Lekker gebly. Ontbyt was heerlik. Baie nice view. Maar soos gesê daar moet bietjie aandag gegee word aan die afronding, ens. Die teels druk weg van muur in badkamer net kwessie van tyd dan gaan als affoeter. Die kamer se gordynreling is in helfte gebreek. Kan sie dit is al lankal so. Ook adverteer hull gratis WiFi maar met navrae is ons net gesê daar is nie. Sal weer daar wil bly maar hopelik sorteer hulle die foutjies uit.

Place is nice but needs attention. Curtain rail is broken, tiles in bathroom fall from wall.

Nice stay. Breakfast was delicious. Very nice view. But as said, some attention should be paid to the finishing, etc. The teals push away from the wall in the bathroom, only a matter of time then the als fades away. The room's curtain rail was broken in half. Can see it has been like this for a long time. Also they advertise free WiFi but upon enquiry, we were just told there isn't. Would like to stay there again but hopefully they sort out the bugs.

Nie waarde vir geld nie.

Ek kan nie dink dat iemand so baie betaal vir so swak kwaliteit nie. Glad nie waarde vir my geld nie.

Loved it and will most definitely recommend.

Too much light though and shines into your room and spoils the view. I did ask the lady to assist with switching off some floodlights and she was extremely accommodating and helpful! Thank you!

Thank you so much for the positive review, we hope to accommodate you in future again.

Thanks to Slie and Pamella for friendly welcome.They treated us very well. Enjoy sea view. Had great fun with my family. Peaceful place. Few minutes walk to the beach.

Would recommend to other people. If you want to have fun go to Ramsgate guest house! Minor wrinkles: sliding doors of Hibiscus King Suite and Zanzibar Queen Suite were hard to open. Needs some lubricant. TV was not working at Zanzibar. Leakage fridge in Maldives Family Suite/Self-catering. Delicious breakfast.

Was nie soos geadverteer nie.

Wou 'n sekere kamer gehad het, was glo nie beskikbaar nie weens ander mense in kamer, maar dit maak nie sin nie, want daar was niemand in die hele plek nie! Was nie 'n goeie ondervinding nie. Het ander blyplek gesoek. Moet sê, het darem my geld terug gekry. Dankie. Het gevra voor ons geboek het, het gesê DStv-kanale! Dit is 'n leuen - net sekere kanale.

Not as advertised.

Wanted a certain room, was apparently not available due to other people in the room, but it doesn't make sense, because there wasn't anyone in the entire place! Wasn't a good experience. Looked for other accommodation. Have to say, at least got my money back. Thank you. Asked before we booked, said there were DStv channels! It is a lie - only certain channels.

Great location.

Great location and wonderful breakfast. We also went with our 2 yorkies and they were safe to roam around. Close enough to walk all main beaches but also not crowded on the small private ones.

Ons verblyf was fantasties.

Diana gaan voorwaar uit haar pad om jou so gerieflik moontlik te maak. Baie Dankie aan Diana vir die spesiale dienste wat sy aan ons familie gelewer het. Sy is voorwaar 'n ster en staatmaker. Ons sou nie beter verblyf kon kry nie.
