Amazing!

Such a lovely stay! Helen is so accommodating and the place was perfect for what we needed it for. Our fur baby was also able to come with us and had his own private garden which he loved.

Say Shells 's response

Hi Michelle

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that you had a lovely stay and that we made your day. It warms our hearts to know that the accommodation was perfect for your needs, and we're delighted that your furry friend had a great time in his own private garden.

Till next time, stay well.

Baie gelukkig met dit.

Baie lekker gebly. Het net twee kakkerlakke gevind, wat effens sleg was.

Hi Michael, thank you for bringing this to our attention and we will deal with it. I understand that due to the extreme heat and being by the beach, issues can arise and this is the first time it has happened. We do have Doom spray on hand for guests.

Enjoy the rest of your stay!

Regards,
Mark

Compact but comfortable.

Our stay was comfortable. Our dog found the astroturf strange and we had to take her out of the property so that she could find natural grass for ablutions.

Uitstekende plekkie en baie gasvrye eienaars. Puik diens.

Fantastiese plek om te oornag of te verblyf. Uitstekende diens en dit het alles wat jy nodig het. Dit is pet friendly, wat 'n bonus is. Dit is naby geleë en uiters netjies. Sal beslis aanbeveel. Sal in die toekoms weer daar tuis gaan. Briljante plekkie.

It was beautiful.

We had a beautiful stay, and the place was lovely. The only downside was allergies from pet hairs on the couch, but we managed as the place is pet friendly anyway.

Dankie vir 'n goeie wegbreekervaring waar ons twee Boston Terriers dit met ons kon deel.

Die Boston Terriers het elkeen 'n "welcome snack" gekry. Dierbaar. Wi-Fi password wou nie werk nie. Tip: plak 'n sticker of twee onder teen die glasdeur, dan kan hondekind nie teen die deur vashardloop nie.

Thank you for a great getaway experience where our two Boston Terriers could share it with us.

The Boston Terriers each got a "welcome snack". Precious. Wi-Fi password didn't want to work. Tip: stick a sticker or two on the bottom of the glass door, then the dog can't run into the door.

Thank you so much for choosing to stay at our place and for leaving such a review. We truly appreciate your comment and will look into putting a sticker on the sliding door. We looked at the Wi-Fi when we got the flat and all seemed to be in order, sorry you could not log in. Super glad your dogs enjoyed the treats and we look forward to accommodating you again.

Alles was skoon en netjies.

Baie vriendelike ontvangs. Niks te kort gekom. Aircon in slaapkamer is 'n plus. Goeie matras. Klein plekkie, pragtig, skoon en netjies. PS: Stort/badkamer nie vir groot mense.

Baie lekker gebly, en alles was pragtig skoon en netjies.

Die oorhandiging van die sleutels deur die eienaar was besonders en aangenaam om haar te ontmoet.
