West coast, sea, barbecue and farm silence - beautiful rain frogs too!
We had a really nice stay. The place was nice and clean with a lot of love that went into making it - you can see it! Walking distance from the beach, so nice to watch the sunset and stunning flowers everywhere! As a large group it was a bit difficult to get by with one toilet and we understood that there are two toilets of the layout. Maria who received us was very friendly, and it was a really nice place to stay!

It may only be suitable for one night's sleepover, but not for a holiday.
We couldn't sleep at all in the evenings, the neighbors on both sides of us were very noisy and played loud music until well after 10 o'clock in the evenings. There was also no WiFi as advertised, one has to walk to the main house to get WiFi.

It really was a fantastic place to visit. Our Sunday school children thoroughly enjoyed it. Steenbokfontein Sea Farm was the perfect place to accommodate our group. Children could play freely and the walk to the beach was part of the adventure. Place fully equipped for self-catering. Uncle and Corelee were perfect hosts and even took the children for a joyride in the back of his van. Children did not want to go home.

Unexpectedly disappointing.
Our chalet 5 was one half of an old traditional farmhouse. The bedroom shares a door to the other half, which was also rented out. In our case, the other half was also rented out. The shared door is to the other half's living area where we had to deal with noisy neighbors until the early hours of the morning.

The weekend at Steenbokfontein was wonderful. On arrival, we were welcomed with great hospitality by the hostess and host and immediately felt at home. We stayed in units 4 and 5, which were perfect for our large group of 15 people and provided more than enough sleeping space and amenities for everyone. It is walking distance from the sea and only about 5 minutes drive from the town. I'm really looking forward to our next visit and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a little break from the city.

It was a very nice weekend.
The facility is very clean and comfortable. The environment is very neat and refreshing. The staff is friendly, especially the uncle. Had trouble with wifi and load shedding is also a problem. The facility could pay some attention to backup for load shedding. Was a bit inconvenient especially at night. Management was a bit pushy about payment when the banking app gave problems, but then that was also sorted out and they assisted us to withdraw money. Felt like we weren't trusted. This is the reason for the low score with customer service. Furthermore, they gave us free rein to enjoy our weekend. You guys are great!

The unit is nice and big and well laid out, there were a few things in the kitchen that could be updated but otherwise the stay was very nice. The farm has caves that can be explored which our child really enjoyed, ample space for walking and cycling. It's not too far from the sea or from the town. We really enjoyed the tranquility of the farm.

Frustrating experience with accommodation.
When one of us received the accommodation's key from our host on Friday afternoon, she was told that there was an outstanding sum of R300. Later that evening, when we first got to our spot, the toilet had not been flushed - clearly it had been in use earlier in the day. There were also cobwebs on the walls and the extra toilet paper on the floor was full of dust. On Sunday morning, all three units (Chalets 1 to 3) had power out and we could hear the other guests complaining about it as well. At first we thought Lambertsbaai was experiencing load shedding, but the power in the town was on. When signing out, the power was still out and the host again spoke to one of our group about the R300 and told him that he would like the outstanding amount before they leave the premises. Not once did the host try to contact me - either via cell phone or email. Long story short, I called the host and said that according to the website, we owe Steenbokfontein R0.00. He checked on his computer and said he was terribly sorry for the 'misunderstanding' and that we should forget about the R300 - he now sees how the amount is detailed. Of all the places we have booked through the website, this was by far the worst experience.

Real farm stay.
We had a nice stay at Steenbokfontein. The farm atmosphere is what we were looking for. It is not modern and nothing fits together in the house, but there were enough warm blankets for the cold evenings and the house was very clean and tidy. We didn't realize we needed to take towels and tea towels so that was a bit of a problem but other than that we had a good stay.

Steenbokfontein Seeplaas Sea Farm Accommodation offers an experience that everyone should experience once in their life. It's a farm environment with the sea within walking distance from your place of residence. Kitta and Herman's hospitality is something to experience and you get the opportunity to practically hear and experience the history of the farm. We had breakfast in the farm kitchen and it was an experience - bacon, eggs, sausage, home-baked bread and home-made jam and of course good coffee. I can recommend the place to someone who wants to get away from the hectic life we are all caught up in.

Of all the guest farms we have visited, this one is definitely at the top of my list. With Aunt Kitta and Uncle Herman as the two friendliest people, it was simply amazing. Aunt Kitta with all her jokes, humor and stories of history simply made it most interesting. I, who am not a hiker, walked miles and miles in the field, and just drank in the beauty of the flowers and scenery. I'm not even talking about the caves, it was terribly interesting to be able to view everything. God's Handicrafts that one cannot fake! Aunt Kitta and Maria's breakfast was out of the books. We are sorry we missed Monday's lunch. This farm will surely become our regular visit, also our piece of Heaven on earth, I couldn't ask for a better 60th birthday.

This is the second time we have stayed at the Steenbokfontein farm and it was just as nice as the last time! Aunt Kitta, as well as Uncle Herman, are very hospitable and often stopped by and even walked with us to the sea to watch whales and told stories during a meal at the Farm Kitchen. The units themselves are neat, clean and well equipped for self-catering accommodation. Although the units are close to the road, it didn't bother at all - on the contrary, it's so quiet, you only hear the sea and Sishen-Saldanha train. Perfect for a quiet, switch-off getaway. Would definitely recommend to farm lovers and will definitely go back again!
