Baie gerieflike, skoon huis met 'n bitter mooi uitsig. Het die stoep, swembad en boma-area baie geniet.

Ons het ons kuier vreeslik geniet. Gerieflik geleë, uitsig was fantasties. Huis is goed toegerus en baie netjies. Ons is vriendelik ontvang en heeltyd op hoogte gehou van beurtkrag-skedule. Die groot stoep met see-uitsig is 'n wenner. Groot bome keer die ergste wind van see af. Sal Sea Shells Cottage met 'n geruste hart aanbeveel en ons gaan beslis weer kom kuier.

Very comfortable, clean house with a very nice view. Really enjoyed the porch, pool and boma area.

We enjoyed our visit very much. Conveniently located, view was fantastic. House is well equipped and very tidy. We were kindly received and kept informed of the load shedding schedule all the time. The large veranda with sea view is a winner. Big trees block the worst wind from the sea. Would recommend Sea Shells Cottage with confidence and we will definitely be visiting again.

Family with teenagers

Not value for money.

Couldn't play loud tradition music, was told to tone down. Fridge and freezer wasn't 100% working. During loadshedding, no water as water is supplied through Jojo tank. Pool pump was not activated while there, no pool maintenance, we even had to fill the pool ourselves. Pool wasn't very clean. Yes we did by mistake break a glass top, but breakage refund took a whole week. Not value for money, we paid too much, only 2 bedrooms had air-con, the rest had fans but they overheated rooms, not a good place for large group, we had 8 adults and 2 teenagers.

Seashells Cottage 's response

Good day,

Unfortunately, this was during a major heatwave, and the pool was overused for that reason. We refilled and cleaned as often as possible. The beach is also close by, and guests can go there.
Load shedding was hitting us for 4-hours at a time, but the fridges and freezers worked just fine.
I want to add that music was being played loudly via a car. We have had no complaints regarding our accommodation, and we are sorry that you did not enjoy your stay.
Breakage refunds take up to 5-7 days to be repaid.
Thank you.

Damage to furniture.

The lady sends me a picture saying that my dogs made a hole in the one sofa, these are covered with cloths when you get there, you can't see it, then she blames us for the damage. It's clearly an old tear.

The pictures did not lie.

My friends and I loved the place. Clean pool. Safe electric gate. We enjoyed the fire pit at night as well. We absolutely loved the place and the host was welcoming. Definitely a 5-star rating.

Nice environment

My colleagues/friends did enjoy every minute of they stay, I am the only one that did not enjoy the pool because I had to leave them the following morning to attend a relative's funeral but I did join them later that day.

Family with young children

Heerlike ruim gesinshuis, met twee redelik private strande naby.

Ideale verblyf vir uitgebreide gesin. Ruim kuierareas, binne en buite, met al die gerief van jou eie huis. Vierde slaapkamer het oopplan-stort en toilet in kamer, wat nie ideaal vir privaatheid is nie. Heerlike braai-area, vuurput en stoep met see-uitsig. Swembad, lugversorging en waaiers het baie gehelp met afkoel in Desember.

Lovely spacious family home, with two fairly private beaches nearby.

Ideal accommodation for extended family. Spacious living areas, inside and outside, with all the comfort of your own home. Fourth bedroom has open plan shower and toilet in room, which is not ideal for privacy. Lovely braai area, fire pit and veranda with sea view. Pool, air conditioning and fans helped a lot with cooling in December.
