Amazing. Lovely. Worth it.

The stay was amazing. The pictures don't do justice to the actual place and location. It is prettier and bigger in real life. It is within walking distance to the beach. The dogs had a blast. The location is perfect to either go towards Margate or Ramsgate for food and entertainment.

Amazing sea views, a short walk to the beach. We enjoyed it. Money well spent.

We enjoyed every moment. The apartment was clean, and they thought of everything to make it as comfortable as possible. We will definitely visit the accommodation again.

Beautiful view in very neat apartment - area not too good.

A little disappointed with the location - not as close to the sea as indicated - but very nice sea view. In busy high street of Margate - not always pleasant circumstances.

Ek weet nie waar om te begin om whaleloft te beskryf nie.

Dit voel asof ek nooit genoeg woorde gaan hê om die mooi en die lekker te kan beskryf/besing nie.Whale Loft 3 was die mees toegeruste, beste vakansieplek waar ons nog tuisgegaan het. Dit het sowaar gevoel asof ons by die huis is. Daar is voorsiening gemaak vir letterlik alles wat mens dálk mag nodig kry. Van wasgoedpennetjies tot die waterbakkies vir die honde. Dit is 'n verskriklike mooi woonplek wat duidelik baie goed onderhou word. Die oopte! Ons is klaar besig om ons volgende wegbreek te beplan en sou Whale Loft 3 nie beskikbaar wees nie, pas ek die datums aan tot wanneer dit beskikbaar is!

I don't know where to begin to describe whaleloft.

It feels like I will never have enough words to be able to describe/sing the beauty and the fun. Whale Loft 3 was the most equipped, best vacation place we have ever stayed at. It really felt like we were at home. Provision has been made for literally everything one might need. From clothespins to the water bowls for the dogs. This is a terrifically beautiful place to live that is clearly very well maintained. The open! We are already planning our next getaway and should Whale Loft 3 not be available, I will adjust the dates until it is available!

Baie netjies en skoon. Goed toegerus. Pragtige uitsig.

Die eenheid was baie skoon, stylvol en baie goed toegerus. Die ligging is baie goed met 'n pragtige see-uitsig. 'n Bonus is dat die eenheid dierevriendelik is met selfs 'n opening in die veiligheidshek waar die hondjies kon uitgaan na die veilige toegemaakte area. Beslis 'n eenheid waar ek weer sal gaan bly.

Dit was heerlik om in 'n netjiese skoon blyplek in te stap, waar alles 'n lus vir die oog is. Niks het ontbreek nie en alles was reg vir raakvat. Ons het die kuier baie geniet en sal Whale Loft beslis kan aanbeveel.

Dankie vir ’n heerlike tydjie wat ons batterye herlaai het. Die walvisse en dolfyne bederf ’n mens. Die plek is pragtig, goed ingerig en goed geleë. Ons sal definitief weer teruggaan.

Het dit baie geniet. Aangenaam verras met hoe dit lyk en die geriewe.

Was bietjie teleurgesteld dat die 1 kamer venster nie werk nie en dat dit nie lyk asof dit reggemaak gaan word nie, aangesien 'n getikte nota op die venster geplak word en dit word selfs in die gasteboek getik wat op die koffietafel lê. Sou dink dit kan/moet reggemaak word.

Enjoyed it a lot. Pleasantly surprised with how it looks and the amenities.

Was a little disappointed that the 1 room window is not working and it doesn't look like it will be fixed as a typed note is stuck on the window and it is even typed in the guest book that is on the coffee table. Would think it could/should be fixed.

Whale Loft 's response

Hi Frik,

Dankie vir jou terugvoer. Ons is bly julle het julle vakansie geniet!

Die venster knip is gebuig en dus maak die venster baie moelik toe. Die venster knip is oud en spaar parte is nie meer beskikbaar nie, Die hele slot meganisme moet vervang word, soos die een in die ander kamer, maar ons het nie gedink dat dit n groot probleem was nie, want daar is nog 2 venters aan dieselfde kant plus nog n skuif venster aan die see se kant, sowel as n dakwaaier, so daar is genoeg ventilasie.

Ons sal binnekort die meganisme vervang sodat dit reg is vir jou voor jy weer kom kuier!.

Groete,
Mandy.

Baie baie dankie aan Mandy! Ons het ons 10 dae vakansie so geniet! Die huis was baie mooi, lekker uitkyk op die see en sommer naby aan 'n klomp winkels en eetplekke. Die woonstel was gemaklik, mooi en baie veilig. Ons sal inderdaad weer kom!

Pragtige plekkie, ideaal vir 'n rustige wegbreek.

Plekkie gee werklik 'n vakansie gevoel. Sal aircon aanbeveel en dalk 'n groter TV. Verder is daar geen klagtes nie. Miskien net wasgeriewe vir klere, want daar is nie regtig plekke nie.

Uitstekend!

Waarde vir geld, maar word nie aanbeveel vir ouer mense wat trappe moet klim nie, tensy daar 'n hysbak aangebring word. Kliënte van ander eenhede moet asseblief ingelig word oor die spesifieke parkeerplek vir elke eenheid, aangesien sommige kliënte ander se parkeerplekke gebruik en jou dan vasparkeer. Verder was dit lekker om elke dag met die geluid van die see wakker te word en te gaan slaap. Ek sal definitief die eenheid aanbeveel vir die wat belangstel om daar te oornag.

This review is being shown in its original language.

Outstanding!

Value for money but not recommended for older people who have to climb stairs unless a lift is fitted. Customers of other units should be advised of the specific parking space for each unit, as some customers use others' parking spaces and then lock you up. Furthermore, it was nice to wake up and go to sleep with the sound of the sea every day. I would definitely recommend the unit to those interested in staying overnight.
