Altyd lekker in San Lameer.

Ons bly altyd lekker by San Lameer. Dit sou nog beter gewees het om papbakkies te gehad het in die eenheid.

Always fun in San Lameer.

We always have a good time at San Lameer. It would have been even better to have porridge bowls in the unit.

Poor.

Very disappointing. The apartment was extremely dirty, the walls next to the beds were dirty, and there were cockroaches everywhere. Only very basic kitchen equipment. The estate is extremely beautiful and the wildlife around is stunning.

Aakligste ondervinding ooit met meubels wat beslis nie vir rus is nie.

Nee — was slegste moontlike ervaring. Slegste wat ons nog ooit gehad het. Die meubels is nie op 'n aanvaarbare standaard nie. Die banke is of jy sit op dun plankbalkie of val binne die bank se uitgewerkte spons in. Uiters ongemaklik. Die beddens is ook van so standaard dat mens nie daarop kan slaap nie. Om idee te gee voor die vakansie verby was het ons kinders gevra of ons nie eerder kan huis toe gaan nie. Ons het besluit om eerder nie die nuwe jaar in negatiwiteit in te gaan en toe eerder gepak en huis toe gegaan. Beste besluit ooit om eerder te ry en nie verder daar te bly nie. Sal beslis nooit weer hierdie eenheid besoek nie. Uiters teleurgesteld en het meer van die webtuiste verwag.

Worst experience ever with furniture that is definitely not for rest.

No — was worst possible experience. Worst we have ever had. The furniture is not up to an acceptable standard. The sofas are either you sit on a thin plank beam or fall into the sofa's elaborate sponge. Extremely uncomfortable. The beds are also of such a standard that one cannot sleep on them. To give an idea before the holiday was over we asked the children if we couldn't go home instead. We decided not to enter the new year in negativity and instead packed up and went home. Best decision ever to drive instead and not stay there any longer. Will definitely never visit this unit again. Extremely disappointed and expected more from the website.

San Lameer is altyd 'n goeie keuse, alhoewel die waarde vir geld op die eenheid nie goed was nie.

Die tweede slaapkamer het geen waaier nie. Dit in een van die areas met hoe humiditeit. Nie eenheid se skuld nie, maar al 4 dae was die estate besig met herstelwerk op water/rioolpype reg by ons stoep, so baie steurend, geen privaatheid, sowel as 'n reuk. Sitkamer: stel voor TV moet vervang word. Voel of jy op houtplanke sit. Gaste bo ons het ook klein kinders gehad, so ons het ook heel tydmeubels hoor skuif bo ons. Glad nie n lekker ervaring die keer nie.

San Lameer is always a good choice, although the value for money on the unit was not good.

The second bedroom has no fan. This in one of the areas with how humidity. Not the unit's fault, but for 4 days the estate was doing repairs on water/sewer pipes right by our porch, so very disturbing, no privacy, as well as a smell. Living room: suggest TV needs to be replaced. Feel like you are sitting on wooden planks. Guests above us also had small children, so we also heard furniture being moved all the time above us. Not a nice experience at all this time.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoering. Ons vra om verskoning vir die herstelwerk wat ongelukkig plaasgevind het in die oord. Ongelukkig is gebarste pype 'n baie moeilke saak om te voorspel en buite ons hande. Jammer vir die kinders bo u, wat u vakansie versteur het. Onthou maar net, San Lameer is 'n kindervriendelike oord.

Horrible place. Will not recommend this Villa 2001 to anyone.

I am not happy at all with the unit we booked into. The photos you are advertising is not the current photos. This unit is very old and not in a good condition. This Villa is not maintained at all. We only spent 1 x night in this unit and we all felt extremely sick from the mold smell. We checked out at 17:50 on Saturday night. The aircon water pipe was dripping in the middle of the walk way at the braai area. The bathroom light switch is faulty and has been for along time I think. The fridge was missing shelves in the door. The walls are full of holes and the couch can not be sat on at all. The Kitchen cupboards are old and need to be replaced. None of the bedrooms have proper ventilation and the unit is extremely stuff and smells like mold. I do advise that the website doesn't advertise this unit. The owners need to do something about this. Very unhappy that I paid for a place in should bad condition.

San Lameer Villa 2001 's response

Thank you very much for the valued feedback. We sincerely appreciate the time you have taken to write the review. We have inspected the unit as per our communication and have requested that you please indicate to us which photo is not relevant. We apologize for the aircon pipe dripping in the mentioned area, and have requested the pipe to be adjusted. Do remember to report if something is not working, in order for us to send out a technician. We are still awaiting shelves for the fridge door. We are looking into the mold smell referred to, but could not find any problems, although the unit might have been a bit humid upon arrival. We look forward to addressing any issues and ensuring that our guests have a wonderful stay.

Die oord is fantasties en sal graag weer gaan, maar ek sal nie weer gebruik maak van die eenheid nie.

Met ons aankoms was die vloere nie gevee of gemop nie, so teen die tyd wat die kinders in die bed geklim het (na bad) was hul voete klaar weer swart. Ons het toe die eenheid self skoon gemaak. Met klein kinders moet mens gereëld klere was en droog, maar die tuimeldroër was stukkend. Met ons aankoms was die masjien nie gekoppel nie, wat mens laat dink iemand het geweet dat hy buite werking is. 'n Tegnikus het dit tydelik gekry om te werk, maar dit dit het bykans dadelik weer gebreek. Die tuimeldroër is wel 'n dag later vervang. Die DSTV se afstandbeheer het duidelik al te veel myle op en was met kleeflint aan mekaar gehou. Selfs 'n nuwe stel batterye kon nie die stukkende ding kry om te werk nie. Die bad is ingerig met 'n verstelbare stortkop wat aan die muur vas is, maar die klamp was gebreek. Die gevolg is dat die stort net op een plek spuit, reg bo die kraan. Dit maak vir 'n ongemaklike stortproses siende dat mens bo-oor die kraan moet staan om nat te word. Selfs nadat dit gerapporteer was is daar niks aan gedoen nie. Daar is iewers 'n waterlek in die badkamer. Die oorsprong is of op die kraan wat die toilet voer of die pyp na die wasbak kraan, want die badkamer se vloer was alewig nat. Selfs nadat dit gerapporteer was is daar niks aan gedoen nie. Die sitkamer se een venster is toe geverf, so dit kan nie oopmaak nie. Selfs nadat dit gerapporteer was is daar niks aan gedoen nie. Die een kasdeur in die kombuis is gebreek. Die onderste skarnier is uit getrek en die oorblywende skarnier is op sy einde. Vele van die kasdeure se films (laminate) begin omdop en loskom en kan vergelyk word met wat mens sou verwag van a 1-ster eenheid. Let asb. dat die geut op die stoep deer ape beskadig is gedurende ons tyd daar. Die gevolg is dat daar aanhoudende water op die stop drip van die eenheid bo die een. Dit is gerapporteer maar met die toestand van die eenheid is ek nie vol vertroue dat dit aandag gaan kry voor die volgende gaste inklok nie. Ons is uiters teleurgesteld in die kondisie van die eenheid, die pap is beslis nie die sous werd nie.

The resort is fantastic and would love to go again, but I would not use the unit again.

When we arrived the floors had not been swept or mopped, so by the time the children got into bed (after bathing) their feet were already black again. We then cleaned the unit ourselves. With small children you have to wash and dry clothes regularly, but the tumble dryer was broken. When we arrived the machine was not connected, which makes you think someone knew it was out of order. A technician got it to work temporarily, but it broke again almost immediately. The tumble dryer was indeed replaced a day later. The DSTV remote control clearly had too many miles on it and was taped together. Even a new set of batteries couldn't get the broken thing to work. The bath was fitted with an adjustable shower head attached to the wall, but the clamp was broken. The result is that the shower only sprays in one place, right above the faucet. This makes for an awkward showering process seeing as you have to stand over the faucet to get wet. Even after it was reported nothing was done about it. There is a water leak somewhere in the bathroom. The origin is either on the faucet that feeds the toilet or the pipe to the sink faucet, because the bathroom floor was always wet. Even after it was reported nothing was done about it. The living room's one window has been painted over, so it cannot open. Even after it was reported nothing was done about it. The one cupboard door in the kitchen was broken. The bottom hinge is pulled out and the remaining hinge is on its end. Many of the cabinet doors' films (laminates) are starting to peel and come off and can be compared to what one would expect from a 1-star unit. Please note that the gutter on the porch was damaged by deer monkeys during our time there. The result is that there is continuous water dripping on the stop of the unit above the one. This has been reported but with the condition of the unit I am not confident that it will be addressed before the next guests check in. We are extremely disappointed in the condition of the unit, the pulp is definitely not worth the gravy.

Eenheid is nie verhuurbaar in huidige toestand nie.

Heelwat resensies op die webblad kla oor die toestand van die eenheid. Herhaaldelik het Top Destinations versekering gegee dat alles reggestel is, maar dit was nie die geval nie. Gebrekkige kommunikasie tussen Top Destinations en die webtuiste.

San Lameer was wonderlik, maar die villa was afgeskeep en die meubels, veral die bed, oud en verwaarloos.

Baie lekker vakansie gehou, was heerlik om so naby die swembad te wees, maar die villa se braaigeriewe was nie lekker nie, daar is nie 'n skoorsteen nie en die rook trek in die huis in. Die hoofslaapkamer se bed is ongemaklik, oud en uit geslaap. Die kamer met die stapelbeddens se leertjies is los, dit maak dit baie gevaarlik vir kinders.

San Lameer was wonderful, but the villa was neglected and the furniture, especially the bed, old and neglected.

Very nice holiday, was lovely to be so close to the pool, but the villa's braai facilities were not nice, there is no chimney and the smoke goes into the house. The main bedroom's bed is uncomfortable, old and worn out. The room with the bunk beds' leather is loose, making it very dangerous for children.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer, Wandi. Dis die enigste manier hoe ons kan verbeter. Ons gee gerus aandag aan jou klagtes en wil jou gerus stel dat die eenheid intussen 'n opgradering ondergaan het, wat heelwat nuwehede insluit. Ons sal die nuwe foto's in die volgdene paar weke plaas.

Nogmaals dankie vir die terugvoer, ons sien uit daarna om weer van julle te hoor!

Lekker ruskans met baie om te doen.

Alles baie lekker. Strand het net eendag ongelukkig menslike afval gehad wat ons afgesit het. Ons het baie van San Lameer gehou en daar is baie om die kinders mee besig te hou. Ons wil graag weer soontoe gaan. Ons was egter bekommerd omdat dit nie lyk of die meerderheid huise goed in stand gehou word nie. Daar was reuse kokkerotte in ons huisie wat ons ook effens onrustig laat slaap het. Ons was baie dankbaar vir die air con in die huisie want dit was baie warm.

Nice break with lots to do.

Everything very nice. Strand just one day unfortunately had human waste which we dropped off. We really liked San Lameer and there is a lot to keep the kids busy. We would like to go there again. However, we were concerned because the majority of houses did not seem to be well maintained. There were giant cockroaches in our little house which also made us sleep a little restless. We were very grateful for the air con in the cottage because it was very hot.

Goeiedag Alan,

Baie dankie vir jou terugvoer.

Wees verseker dat die oord tans besig is om elke lot oor te doen en is dat daar 'n volledige lys van opgraderings vir die volgende 5 jaar beplan is.

Ons vra ook om verskoning vir die kokkerot. Wees verseker dat elke eenheid in die oord kwartaaliks deur professionele plaagbestryders behandel teen word kokkerotte, maar ons sal verseker van ons kant af dophou en verdere stappe neem.

Ons sien uit daarna om weer van jul te hoor, ons is baie bly julle het die wegbreek geniet.

Veilig, rustig en familie vriendelik met baie vakansie aktiwiteite.

Dit was 'n vakansie om te onthou by Sanlameer, die verblyf was heeltemal voldoende vir ons gesin, loop afstand van die swembad op die oord, baie speelplek vir die kinders, mooi wild om na te kyk. Almal by die oord is baie behulpsaam en daar is baie aktiwiteite om te doen sonder om die oord te verlaat.

Everyone at the resort is very helpful and there are many activities to do without leaving the resort.
