Wonderlike see-uitsig, fantastiese balkon

Sugar Beach 5A het die perfekte ligging. Jy kan die skepe dophou wat wag om in die hawe te gaan en ons was gelukkig genoeg om walvisse te sien. Dit kyk oor die hoofstrand uit, en het 'n pragtige balkon met bank, sonstoele en eetkamer tafel, wat dit amper onnodig maak om die moeite te doen om op die sand te gaan sit, tensy jy wil swem. Daar is nie tyd vir laat lê nie, want jy sal vroeg die lewensredder se fluitjie hoor blaas, maar wie wil laat slaap met so uitsig? Die huis is minimalisties in terme van meubels, maar daar is alles wat jy nodig het insluitend goeie WiFi as jy 'n ogie oor die werk moet gooi asook DStv met beperkte kanale. Lugversorging deur die hele woonstel. Ongelukkig het die wasmasjien nie reg gewerk nie, so toe ons wou wasgoed was, was dit 'n gemors aangesien water nie wou dreineer nie. Die tuimeldroeër het ook nie ons klere droog gemaak nie, en ons moes klam wasgoed inpak vir ons vlug. Die sitkamer bank kan doen met 'n goeie skoonmaak. Wat fantasties sal wees is 'n strandsambreel vir gaste wat vlieg aangesien dit onmoontlik is om jou eie sambreel te bring en die son warm raak op die strand. Wonderlike pizzaplek net skuins onder woonstelle. Sal vir seker weer 'n draai maak!

Amazing sea view, fantastic balcony

Sugar Beach 5A has the perfect location. You can watch the ships waiting to go in the harbor and we were lucky enough to see whales. It overlooks the main beach, and has a lovely balcony with sofa, sun loungers and dining table, making it almost unnecessary to bother sitting on the sand unless you want to swim. There's no time for staying up late, because you'll soon hear the lifeguard's whistle blowing, but who wants to stay up late with a view like that? The house is minimalist in terms of furniture, but there is everything you need including good WiFi if you need to catch up on work as well as DStv with limited channels. Air conditioning throughout the apartment. Unfortunately the washing machine didn't work properly so when we wanted to do laundry it was a mess as water wouldn't drain. The tumble dryer didn't dry our clothes either, and we had to pack damp laundry for our flight. The living room sofa could do with a good cleaning. What would be fantastic is a beach umbrella for guests flying in as it is impossible to bring your own umbrella and the sun gets hot on the beach. Amazing pizza place just diagonally below apartments. Will definitely visit again!

Baie bly om te hoor julle het die besoek geniet en sien uit daarna om julle weer te verwelkom. Vra verskoning oor die wasmasjien en tuimeldoreër wat probleme veroorsaak het en ons het daarna omgesien en herstel asook op gelet na die bank se skoonmaak. Die winkel langs die pizza plek huur sonsambrele uit aan gaste wat nie hulle eie kon saambring nie.

Beach bliss.

Sugar Beach 5A is very nicely situated, 10 min drive to the airport makes it an awesome winter break if coming from Cape Town or Johannesburg. Beds are all very comfortable and Wi-Fi great.

The unit is nice, but the elevator being out of order spoiled everything!

Carrying luggage up and down 5 sets of stairs is really inconvenient. We also ran Comrades and 5 sets of stairs after 87 km hurt! Umdloti Letting informed me the day before our arrival that the lift was out of order and offered help with our luggage. However, there was no one to help us. During our stay, there was no one to repair the elevator either, so it really didn't seem like it was a priority. The accommodation is not cheap and we are therefore really unhappy about this.

Flat great, service not good.

We enjoyed our stay, but the flat had a lot of faults that were never repaired. The key collection was a nightmare.

Lovely getaway.

Enjoyed our stay very much. I recommend taking the warning about the monkeys seriously. Not a nice experience to return and find a huge mess.

Nagmerrie.

Ons het as 'n familie in 3 van die eenhede in Sugar Beach gebly vir my Moeder se 72ste verjaarsdag. Niemand het voor die tyd aan ons gesê dat hulle besig is met instandhoudingswerk by die gebou nie. Van vroeg in die oggende was daar 'n gekappery en rumoer, met stukke bourommel wat sommer van bo die "scaffolding" na benede val. Verder het die hysbak gebreek - en om alles te kroon het die trappe ook vol "scaffolding" gestaan. Nodeloos om te sê was dit met groot moeite wat ons tot bo by ons woonstel moes kom met die kinders se stootwaentjies en nog erger - my arme bejaarde ouers wat deur die "scaffolding" moes sukkel trappe op en trappe af. Die regte ding wat Sugar Beach moes doen is om besprekings te sluit vir die tydperk wat instandhouding gedoen word. Dit is gevaarlik en bitter steurend. Die werkers het reg teenaan ons kamervensters gewerk. Eenheid 5A was ook vuil met ons aankoms. Daar was lang hare op die kamervloer, die eetgerei en glase was vuil, en daar was lekkergoedpapiere op die sitkamerbanke. Verder het die wasmasjien nie gewerk nie. Ons kon 1 kanaal op DStv opvang so het dit eerder gelos. Daar is geen aanwysings hoe om die DVD-speler te gebruik nie.

Nightmare.

We stayed as a family in 3 of the units in Sugar Beach for my Mother's 72nd birthday. No one told us ahead of time that they were doing maintenance work at the building. From early in the morning there was hacking and commotion, with pieces of construction debris falling down from above the "scaffolding". Furthermore, the lift broke - and to top it all off, the stairs were also full of "scaffolding". Needless to say, it was with great difficulty that we had to get to the top of our apartment with the children's prams and even worse - my poor elderly parents who had to struggle up and down the stairs through the "scaffolding". The right thing for Sugar Beach to do is to close reservations for the period that maintenance is being done. It is dangerous and deeply disturbing. The workers were working right against our room windows. Unit 5A was also dirty when we arrived. There were long hairs on the bedroom floor, the cutlery and glasses were dirty, and there were candy wrappers on the living room sofas. Furthermore, the washing machine did not work. We could catch 1 channel on DStv so left it instead. There are no instructions on how to use the DVD player.

Sugar Beach 5A 's response

Hi Benita,
Wat gebeur het gedurende julle verblyf is onaanvaarbaar. Ons was ingelig dat die verfwerk buite op die gebou klaar sou wees voor julle aankoms. Ons was ongelukkig nie bewus dat die hysbak gedurende julle verblyf buite werking was nie.
As julle ons laat weet het dat die wasmasjien buite werking was sou ons dadelik iemand gestuur het. Ons was rerig onder die indruk dat alles goed was toe ons 'n goeie afslag aangebied het.
Ons vra groot onverskoning en verstaan jou frustrasie.

Stunning views!

Was an absolute pleasure to stay in Sugar Beach. Excellent service, well serviced and clean! Great facilities and amenities in the spacious unit. The views are amazing and the beach is a short distance away - well within walking distance to the rock and tidal pools.
