Pay more attention to personal attention and client demands.
It wasn't our first time. We asked for sea view but the window and blinds did not work. We had to move to another room with only a partial view. We stayed because I had to go to George Hospital for treatment. But our last visit was decidedly less pleasant. The floors were flooded and soaking wet. I suggest you put a permanent mop in the shower, because it is very unpleasant if there is no drying cloth to put on.

The location is very good and we slept very well with the sea as "background music".
We slept very well and the compartment and bathroom were neat and clean. The breakfast the next morning had been an anti-climax. We went to have breakfast at 08:15 - all seats were taken and had to sit in the smoking area. It was a lovely sunny morning - none of the tables and benches on the veranda were ready for guests to sit on - wet and dewy. Fruit salad, juice, muffins had run out and had to wait a very long time. A general worker in overalls walks in from outside and makes him coffee - has he washed his hands?? It's as if there was no order - maybe the manager was sick?

We sincerely apologize for your experience. Unfortunately, we can't do anything about the view as it is covered with an indigenous tree/s so that is totally out of our control. And under no circumstances are we allowed to do anything about it, Milkwoods are protected trees, and when pruning or removing them, a license is needed for the National Forests Act.

Experience to live. Friendly staff. Nice place to sleep. Best food at the restaurant. Walking distance from the beach.
It was a wonderful experience. Safe, with security. Nice place to sleep. Nice food. Friendly staff members. Walking distance from the beach. Went for an early swim before breakfast. The best thing was to sit by the train's window and look at the sea until late, and be able to see the lights on the water, hear and smell the sea. Was a great holiday and we will do it again.

Die twin kamers kan bietjie klein wees veral as daar meer as 2 persone in slaap. Ons beveel ons gaste altyd aan om 'n Twin en enkel kamer te bespreek vir almal se gerief. Indien u weer bespreek by ons bespreek een van die Caboose eenhede. Baie privaat en dit is iets vir die boeke.
Mag julle 'n mooi 2023 het.

It was an experience for the children to be able to sleep in a train.
Very nice view but it doesn't help much if the sea water is dirty due to the harbor just next to it and so the children couldn't swim. Bathroom (toilet) smells incredibly bad in the carriage (Royal Suite B) in which we stayed. Secure gated parking only if you sleep in the Royal Suites. And the bed is quite hard. Furthermore, we really enjoyed it.

Too many mistakes unfortunately.
On arrival, the room we booked had been given to someone else. We had to downgrade for one night and move to the other room the next morning. The new room was not the right room either, we booked a sea view but had to face the street which was described as a mountain view. There were ants, we had to hang a towel in front of the one window that didn't have a screen in front. The worst was that we had no hot water for 2 days. No young man, it was a disaster!

Once again, like 2 years ago, we had noisy guests in our carriage. They came in drunk and noisy at 3:00 in the morning (curfew). We had to ask them 2 times to speak more softly and respect our sleeping time. Our daughters had also been in a nearby carriage and not with us. Otherwise we really enjoyed it.

It was horrible, dirty, noisy and not safe at all.
We were 25 minutes early but had to wait until 14h00 to get keys. Then we got 2 cabins from each other in separate train cars. I then asked for 2 next to each other, because I cannot leave minor children alone. Then they said it's full, there aren't 2 next to each other. Then I said then we will have to find other accommodation, then suddenly there were 2 open next to each other. These cabins have an unpleasant smell, the floors and bedding are dirty. The rasta family who stayed next to us didn't come in until 11pm. They made a lot of noise, smoked and drank until 1am. It was quiet from 01h00 to 03h00, then a beach party started and it was noisy until 05h00. The security gates were open. I went to close it a few times. Needless to say, we couldn't wait for 05h00 to drive. We didn't sleep at all. Somewhat of a 'unique' experience I was looking forward to, I never want to do again. I suggest website remove Santos Express from their website, because you will not sleep well for sure. It was a bad experience. At 23:00 at night we started to Google for other accommodation, but with the 24:00 'curfew' we couldn't find a place anywhere that late. Most places' 'check-in' time is only until 22h00 in the evening. I almost fell asleep in my car.

Cigarette smoke engulfed us in the corridors upon arrival.
Reception was friendly, but think the advertisement for the accommodation is misleading. Rooms were clean but a damp smell filled the room, was under the impression there was a double bed as we indicated there were two couples staying there, and could someone advise us to prefer double facilities. Toilets and showers had to be shared with other guests, which were not clearly indicated as such. There was a sink in the room and with tremendous effort on the taps water came out, but there was no plug either. No glasses in room to drink water at night.

Extremely neat, but cramped as can be expected from a coupe. Great on the beach.
Something different from the usual. Very difficult for the disabled to get up the stairs, including the stairs and the terrible slope to the restaurant (especially in the rain when the railing is wet). Our coupe's door didn't lock from the inside (think it was number 42). When we used the "latch" we couldn't get it open again and after two calls to reception no one came to let us out. With a hell of a struggle we got it open and when we were already outside, a lady came to help us. After that we could not use the latch and the key did not lock the door from the inside. So we slept both nights with the door unlocked, quite unsafe because you don't know who and what was in other compartments.

We stayed in the Royal Suite. There is a beautiful antique train that has seen better days. The train is located very well close to the sea. If it was closer to the ocean, you would get wet. The unit's hall is a bit narrow, seeing as it is a train hall. The furnishings of the unit is beautiful, bit the maintenance is not up to par. All of the windows can't open up and the bath has a leak and the bathroom was under water after taking a bath.

Santos is centrally located. You can go anywhere you want, whether it's Knysna or Oudtshoorn, all the areas are only 100 km away. The staff are very friendly and helpful and should you be looking for a place, they will be able to help you without having to struggle with an address. There are also road maps available on the train itself to locate the location. Besides that, they offer a delicious breakfast included in the price.

What you see on advertisement and what you get at Santos Express are two different things. The advertisement describes the Royal Suite as a "royal suite" with a victorian bath and sea view while only certain suites meet the requirements. They were willing to refund our money but not to move us to the suite we thought we had booked.

We checked in for a week, and mainly slept there and enjoyed breakfast.
Santos is the perfect accommodation if you don't want to spend the whole day indoors. The sea view is fantastic. The compartment is a bit cramped, but is ideal if you just want to spend the night, and is definitely value for money, including the breakfast. The staff is very helpful and friendly. I think the bathroom facilities might be a problem if it's fully booked. We were there out of season and did not experience this as a problem. I would definitely recommend Santos, and in fact already have.
