A view to remember, a compact unit that was perfect for us.

The view is breathtaking, the weather blessed us with a perfect day almost every day. The beach was quiet and lovely to meander around the rocks. We enjoyed the braai facilities and the loungers. There are wonderful restaurants nearby to visit with exceptional service and food. We will most definitely go there again.

Fantastic beach holiday.

Perfectly located on the beach with great views, this unit is very well kitted out with every conceivable item. Trying to find good accommodation for a small group is not easy on the North Coast, and Rod's View exceeded our expectations. A special mention for Paul, who was incredibly generous and helpful.

The accomodation is great.

The view is spectacular, with easy access to a very scenic beach. The only negative comment I have is that the pillows on all the beds were extremely uncomfortable. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.

Rod's View 's response

Many thanks for your review. I will look into this, as we try and provide one soft pillow and one firm pillow- should be one of each on beds, but will look into this for sure. Thanks again and hope to see you again- best wishes to you and your family. Thanks again.

Een van die beste en netjiesste plekke waar ek nog was.

Wonderlik, wonderlik. Met aankoms na ’n lang rit was daar koffie en beskuit en melk in die yskas - al die klein dingetjies tel groot punte. Rod's View het ’n uitstekende uitsig en volledige kombuis. Daar is regtig niks wat ’n mens kort kom nie. Liz is ’n uitstekende gasvrou, die plek word regtig netjies in stand gehou en opgegradeer. Ek sal Rod's view altyd aan almal aanbeveel. Hulle gaan my beslis weer binne ’n maand of twee se tyd weer sien.

One of the best and neatest places I've ever been.

Wonderful, wonderful. On arrival after a long drive there was coffee and biscuits and milk in the fridge - all the little things count for big points. Rod's View has an excellent view and full kitchen. There is really nothing one lacks. Liz is an excellent hostess, the place is really neatly maintained and upgraded. I will always recommend Rod's view to everyone. They will definitely see me again within a month or two.

If you are looking for a private beautiful self-catering house on the beach, this is the one!

Apart from the well equip self-catering house, the little things impressed us a lot. The box of biscuits, coffee, tea and sugar were supplied, the milk in the fridge to make yourself a cup of coffee when you arrive. The bath and beach towels. The firewood for the first braai. Excellent quality of bed sheets and duvets.

Hi Nina,

Aangenaam verras met uitsig en eenheid no.2. Omgewing pragtig!

Mary het ons met ons aankoms by die eenheid ontmoet en alles uitgewys. Haar vriendelikheid het ons dadelik laat welkom en tuis voel. Ons dogter wat gedurende die langnaweek haar 21ste verjaarsdag gevier het is bederf met 'n geskenkie en heerlike koek. Daar was selfs vars melk in die yskas en 'n sak ys in die vrieskas. Die eenheid was netjies, skoon en volledig toegerus. Daar was swemhanddoeke, bordspeletjies, volledige DStv en WiFi. Die omgewing bied meer as genoeg eetplekke en verskeie winkelsentrums naby die eenheid. Die uitsig is natuurlik fantasties en rustig. Ons harte was maar seer met ons vertrek na 'n heerlike paar dae by Rod's view. Dankie Mary, Liz en Paul.

Pleasantly surprised with view and unit no.2. Environment beautiful!

Mary met us upon our arrival at the unit and showed us everything. Her kindness immediately made us feel welcome and at home. Our daughter who celebrated her 21st birthday during the long weekend was spoiled with a gift and delicious cake. There was even fresh milk in the fridge and a bag of ice in the freezer. The unit was neat, clean and fully equipped. There were swimming towels, board games, full DStv and WiFi. The area offers more than enough places to eat and several shopping centers near the unit. The view is of course fantastic and peaceful. Our hearts were aching as we left after a lovely few days at Rod's view. Thanks Mary, Liz and Paul.

Liz is 'n wonderlike gasvrou, en geen moeite is vir haar te veel nie. Die plekkie is modern, en baie goed toegerus. Het selfs privaat toegang tot die strand.

Absoluut fantasties, will definitief weer soontoe gaan.

Ons het ‘n ongelooflike tyd daar gehad. Die mense wat die plek besit is fantasties en het ons verblyf definitief die moeite werd gemaak. Daar was alles wat ons nodig gehad het en die ligging is ‘amazing’. Ideaal vir iemand wat regtig lekker wil gaan rus en die strand wil geniet.
