Super duper lekker!

Dit was uitstekend van die begin tot die einde. Ons was deur die gasvrou letterlik uit ons voertuig gehaal en verwelkom. Ons het soos ou kennisse gevoel wat mekaar jare laas gesien het. Sy het regtig uit haar pad gegaan om ons tuis te laat voel. Na 20 minute wat net in die tuin spandeer is, was die kamer aan ons gewys, en dit was super skoon en gerieflik. Vir 'n gastehuis was die bed super gemaklik en weereens skoon en vars. Ongelukkig kon ons nie die kombuis gebruik nie, maar die gasvrou het uit haar pad gegaan om vir ons 'n koffie kroug in te rig wat super duper nice was. Ons kan met vertroue sê dat sy ons weer gaan sien.

Super duper delicious!

It was excellent from start to finish. We were literally taken out of our vehicle by the hostess and welcomed. We felt like old acquaintances who hadn't seen each other in years. She really went out of her way to make us feel at home. After 20 minutes spent just in the garden, we were shown the room, and it was super clean and comfortable. For a guest house the bed was super comfortable and again clean and fresh. Unfortunately we couldn't use the kitchen, but the hostess went out of her way to set up a coffee bar for us which was super duper nice. We can say with confidence that she will see us again.

Lieflike rustige atmosfeer met seebries en geluide van see in agtergrond.

Eienares baie tegemoetkomend en gasvry. Ruim kamers uiters netjies gemeubileer. Steurnisvry met sekuriteit vir totale gemoedsrus.

Not what I expected in the least.

Accommodation was really not up to standard. The couches in the lounge were full of cat/dog hair and throws were thrown over the couches to cover holes and torn places, which are in a really bad state. Not comfortable at all. The little oven was full of mould and not clean at all. No decent cutlery was available (cups, teaspoons, plates, pans) not even sure if people use these on a normal/daily basis. The entrance and exits are really odd and the patio door does not even close up properly - not ideal for winter time. The TV does not have proper channels to watch. It was such a cold and wet weekend, would have been ideal to stay indoors, but the accommodation forced us to drive around the entire time. No proper bedding/blankets were available either. We were actually looking for another place to stay for the Saturday evening, but all were fully booked. The beds are so uncomfortable, there is no way any person can sleep on it, not to mention the pillows.

Sea Valley Villa 's response

I am so very sorry- that Mr/Mrs Elne Hector did not find anything to be good enough. This is the worst review I have had ever. Fortunately all things will be improved.
I am so greatfull thus, that I have had some lovely reviews.

I am sorry Elne that you had a cold weather weekend- the heater in cupboard is/was available. I do ask guests to let me know if they have any queries, complaints and I regret that I was not given the option to help whilst you were here.

The throw's - are not there to hide anything but to add to comfort and feeling of warmth. The couch is covered in three colours intended to be creative in line with theme in lounge and washed after each visitor.
The TV does have several channels as part of the family package advertised.
Stove: a number of self-catering accommodation facilities do have a small stove usually with microwave they find this sufficient for weekends.
As for the mould, I will inspect and fix immediate.

Beds: this is the first complaint - I think you took the bedroom pale green decor - this has a Hotelier Private Collection Mattress - please confirm as I will then look at replacing this.
The other mattresses available in the other vacant bedrooms were Edblo Best Sleep and Sealy Posturepedic Prestige.

The pillows: a variety is presented - Anti-Allergy Holofibre, Down and Memory Foam - please advise pillow type you prefer so I can source same
If one could go back in time - so sorry you did not enjoy your stay.
May your future stays be happy occasions.
Take Care.

Had a restful stay at Sea Valley Villa. Anna Lousie and her friendly cat "Gina" were fantastic hosts.

The house is huge and enough space for holiday makers visiting the area.
