Uniek en opwindend.

Siver Mist in Ballots Bay is een van die opwindendste plekke wat ons nóg besoek het. Die houtkothuis is privaat en afgesonder. Dit is skoon, netjies en goed toegerus met implemente, meubels en beddegoed van hoë gehalte. Dit was wonderlik om op die houtbalkon te sit en net om jou te kyk, want die uitsig oor die kloof, woud en tikkie see is asemrowend. Die gasheer was besonder hartlik en hulpvaardig. Hy het ons by die ingang van die reservaat ontmoet en eers op 'n blitstoer geneem om die uitleg van die reservaat te wys. Daar is ook 'n paar bederfies in die kothuis vir ons gelaat wat ons ekstra spesiaal laat voel het. Ons verblyf by dié unieke en opwindende plek is een van ons reis hoogtepunte oor die jare. Volgende keer bly ons langer!

Unique and exciting.

Siver Mist in Ballots Bay is one of the most exciting places we have ever visited. The wooden cottage is private and secluded. It is clean, tidy and well equipped with high quality implements, furniture and bedding. It was wonderful to sit on the wooden balcony and just look around you, because the view of the kloof, forest and a touch of sea is breathtaking. The host was exceptionally warm and helpful. He met us at the entrance to the reserve and first took us on a quick tour to show us the layout of the reserve. There were also a few treats left in the cottage for us that made us feel extra special. Our stay at this unique and exciting place is one of our travel highlights over the years. Next time we will stay longer!

Onbeskryflik. Ons sal dit beslis weer doen.

Wat 'n ervaring! Van die inklok met persoonlike diens, bottel koue vonkel, chokkies en nog meer. Die uitsig is verruklik. Die buite stort is 'n moet, ook met besondere uitsig. Die bad binne met ook besondere uitsig! As gevolg van die weer kon ons ongelukkig nie op die tweede aand die braai onder op die strand benut nie, maar net nog 'n rede om weer terug te gaan. Die bed en linne is van die hoogste gehalte en ons het baie lekker geslaap.

Indescribable. We will definitely do it again.

What an experience! From the check-in with personal service, bottle of cold sparkling wine, chocolates and more. The view is delightful. The outdoor shower is a must, also with a special view. The bath inside with a special view too! Due to the weather we unfortunately could not use the braai down on the beach on the second night, but just another reason to go back. The bed and linen are of the highest quality and we slept very well.

Dis fantasties om (weereens) te hoor! Ons is telkens verheug om sulke opregte terugvoer te ontvang van ons gaste, beide plaaslik en internasionaal! Silver Mist is eenvoudig uitsonderlik geleë en vrede daal oor jou weer. Natuurlik is dit ook bitter romanties. Ons sien uit na jul volgende besoek!

Ons het baie lekker gebly!

Ons het ons naweek baie geniet. Die wind het net baie erg gewaai, maar ons sal beslis weer kom. Die plekkie was mooi skoon en lekker ingerig. Baie dankie.

5-ster verblyf vir seker.

Die gasheer het baie in kontak gebly. Ons het soos royalty gevoel. Die uitsig, die kamer, die bad - iets uitsonderlik. Het reeds vir vriende aanbeveel en ons sal in geen ander plek bly as ek weer in daai area is. Absolutely beautiful!

5 star accommodation for sure.

The host stayed in touch a lot. We felt like royalty. The view, the room, the bath - something exceptional. Have already recommended to friends and we won't stay anywhere else if I'm in the area again. Absolutely beautiful!

The stay was good, the place was nice and had incredible views.

The stay was great; however, we had to sleep on linen that was previously used and dirty. When we reported this, we were told that it was all in our heads. The host is actually very arrogant and doesn't have any regard for their guests. Secondly, we broke two of their glasses and were quoted for a whole set when they're available for sale individually.

Ballots Bay - Silver Mist 's response

We appreciate the review and the opportunity to address the concerns raised.

At Silver Mist, we take great pride in maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness. We can assure you that all linen is thoroughly cleaned and replaced between each booking. The claim that linen was reused or dirty is entirely unfounded. We encourage future guests to refer to other reviews that reflect our commitment to cleanliness.

Regarding the broken glasses, these were unfortunately disposed of in the outside bin without being reported to us. We followed up with the guests, as this was the first instance of a guest breaking both a wine glass and a champagne glass. We promptly replaced the broken items by purchasing new sets, as individual crystal glasses are not sold separately. We regret that the guests did not acknowledge responsibility for the breakages.

Additionally, we were happy to accommodate the guests' request for 12 red roses, which we provided at our own expense. However, we did face some challenges during their stay, including a late check-out (1 hour and 45 minutes past the agreed time) and the condition in which the unit was left, with windows open, doors unlocked, and oil on the gas hob and floor.

While we strive to make every guest experience a positive one, this particular experience was challenging for us as hosts. Nonetheless, we remain committed to providing exceptional service to all our guests.
