Was otherwise very nice.
There is a condition to my recommendation. Find out if the dog will have enough space to play/run around a bit. I was there with my GSD and space I had to confine it to was minutely small with no grass to wee on.

We advertise for small pets, not big dogs as per the German Shepherd that was brought. We have an open field (green belt) adjoining our property where one can walk their pets. Thank you.

Very nice, cozy and comfortable place. Nice and spacious and cozy.
I find with some places that the hostess does not have their phones handy when the guests arrive and that is a big frustration. One sits outside the gate and calls and calls, but they do not answer. It's also not safe to hang around like that outside in the street. Please make it a strict point and stress that the host/wife have their phones where they can answer. Anything can go wrong and then you need the host urgently. Also when I checked out I couldn't contact her again. I can't just drive out and throw the key over the fence! This was the case here and also at my previous stay last September.

It was very nice and convenient.
The house was spacious. Braai facilities were good. It's just that we couldn't find the swim section by the sea.

Peaceful with a beautiful ocean view.
The owner, Johan, warmly welcomed us and gave a neat overview of St Helena Bay. The sheltered braai has witnessed a man who knows the prevailing winds. No better place than Storm Petrel if you want to braai outside with a view of the sea!

Friendly host, helpful when air conditioner stopped working.
The advertisement and pictures are very misleading. On 2 different websites, pictures show three bedrooms. There are only two bedrooms and the other "room" is couches that pull out. Extremely uncomfortable as the couches are in the front door area. No privacy for the person who sleeps there. I suggest the photos be reviewed and remove the misleading 3rd bedroom.

Calm atmosphere.
At first I was disappointed, the photos on the website are of the other apartment that the owners also advertise, but after I cooled down and calmed down because it was not what I had in mind, I experienced the tranquility of the cottage. It's a place to get away from the busy city life and to spend time with your family, barbecue meat, fill in crossword puzzles and just chat. The sea view is picture perfect from the harbor and definitely a place I would recommend.

The friendly host and wife and the beautiful view of the sea and nature made it nice.
The host's puppy that comes to visit the unit dampens my longing for my own puppies at home. Everything feels homely and like a "home away from home".

Place was unclean.
Garbage bin in the kitchen was dirty and smelly. Microwave oven had to be cleaned first before we could use it. Bedding was not fresh. Towels were inadequate. We cannot recommend the place at all. Not value for money as everything appeared dirty.

These people arrived in a some what unfriendly mood, all the above allegations are not true in the least . We the owners see that the place is cleaned and bedding is changed after any guests have stayed, see all other reviews, a testament to all the people who repeatedly come back.

Storm Petrel will become one of my permanent holiday spots.
Johan is an excellent host. Early in the morning when we had to check in, he already called me and asked what time he could expect us. The apartment is neat and well furnished. It is now a real family, visiting apartment. The braai place is located on the stoep and overlooks the sea and harbour. The whole setting is beautifully laid out and private. St Helena Bay is a peaceful holiday village and we enjoyed every moment of our stay. Storm Petrel we will see a lot more.
