A delightful haven for a family holiday.

The location is tremendous, the view takes your breath away every morning. The kitchen is thoughtfully equipped and the little touch of curated books is a treat. The four bedrooms make it easy for the family to spread out, and the laundry room is a big benefit.

Wonderlike uitsig en uitstekende kliëntediens.

Ontvang deur 'n vriedelike agent wat alles deeglik verduidelik het. Toe daar probleme ontstaan het, was dit vreeslik vinnig uitgesorteer. Ons het ons verblyf baie geniet. Tydens loadshedding was daar ligte voorsien wat aangegaan het, baie dankie.

Amazing view and excellent customer service.

Received by a peaceful agent who explained everything thoroughly. When problems arose, they were sorted out very quickly. We really enjoyed our stay. During loadshedding there were lights provided which turned on, thank you very much.

Lovely location and house.

We loved the house and its location to Kalk Bay and Fish Hoek and very comfortable, however the house needs a deep clean, there were lots of cockroaches and the gas braai was covered in fat and grime.

Stapafstand vanaf strande en lewendige Kalkbaai, maar nét ver genoeg buite die geraas.

Hoewel Baytree reg teen die grootpad geleë is, is dit net buite die besigste deel van Kalkbaai wat baie raserig kan wees, tog naby genoeg om jou motor (daar is 'n motorhuis vir 1 voertuig en redelike veilige straatparkering voor) te los en dorp toe te stap. Buiten die ligging is hierdie groot huis ook baie gerieflik ingerig vir 'n gesinsvakansie of 'n klein kuier saam met vriende. Met die groot, oop ruimtes is hy heerlik koel, maar kan nogal vinnig koud raak, so vat maar 'n warm ding saam. Die kaggeltjie in die leefarea se hoek sou ons lekker kon stook, maar is ongelukkig deur 'n vorige groot groep só gestook dat sy glas gebreek het. Wanneer hy reg is, volgende keer, kom ons weer kuier! Dankie aan Thomas en sy span!

Walking distance from beaches and lively Kalk Bay, but just far enough away from the noise.

Although Baytree is located right on the main road, it is just outside the busiest part of Kalk Bay which can be very noisy, yet close enough to leave your car (there is a garage for 1 vehicle and reasonably safe street parking in front) and go into town to walk Apart from the location, this large house is also very comfortably furnished for a family holiday or a small visit with friends. With the large, open spaces, it is wonderfully cool, but can get cold quite quickly, so take something warm with you. The little fireplace in the corner of the living area would have been nice for us to burn, but unfortunately it was burned by a previous large group to such an extent that its glass broke. When he's ready, next time, let's hang out again! Thanks to Thomas and his team!

Beautiful location. Lovely home but needs maintenance.

This a a stunning location with wonderful views of the bay. All the grace and elegance of an old Kalk Bay home. With this, there are sides of wear and tear and poor maintenance behind the beautifully decorated veneer. Upstairs windows do not open and close, resulting in having to leave the window cracked open on a cool night as the handle was found broken off. While the curtains have blackout lining, the street light is right outside the window and as the curtains are on tabs, the light radiates into the room at night above the tabs. Ear plugs for traffic sounds and a sleep mask recommended for light sleepers. There is the smell and evidence of damp in some of the rooms. Unfortunately the extra blanket provided for warmth in the main front room was not useable as it was filthy. Bedding was stained.

Fantastiese naweek by The Baytree Beach House.

Ons het 'n heerlike naweek gehad. Die huis is baie goed toegerus, en was netjies en skoon. Die ligging is ideaal en binne stapafstand van die winkels en restaurante. Die enigste klagte (wat nie werklik iets met die huis te doen het nie) is dat die motors van vroegoggend af raas in Main Road.

Fantastic weekend at The Baytree Beach House.

We had a lovely weekend. The house is very well equipped, and was neat and clean. The location is ideal and within walking distance of the shops and restaurants. The only complaint (which doesn't really have anything to do with the house) is that the cars are noisy from early morning in Main Road.

Heerlike kuier saam familie. Asemrowende uitsig. Gesellige atmosfeer. Regtig waarde vir geld.

Ons het ons naweek by The Beach House verskriklik baie geniet. Die ligging was uitstekend, die uitsig so mooi, en dis naby aan baie oulike eetplekkies en winkels in Kalkbaai. Ons het dit tydens die inperking besoek, wat beteken dat ons maar meestal by The Beach House moes kuier. Hoe dankbaar was ons nie toe vir die keuse nie. Vir 'n mooier uitsig kon ons nie vra nie - ons het skoon luuks gevoel. Dit was yskoud, so ons was baie dankbaar vir die lekker kaggeltjie. Bring genoeg hout. As ons enige kritiek kan lewer sal dit net oor die handdoeke wees. Dit was maar bietjie klein vir die groter lywe. En as dit winter is - bring ekstra komberse en miskien jou eie kussing as jy vol fiemies is. Die was bietjie plat. Verder was die diens baie goed, en sal ons defnitief die Beach House vir almal aanbeveel. Ons sal ook defnitief terug wees!

Great visit with family. Breathtaking view. Cozy atmosphere. Really value for money.

We really enjoyed our weekend at The Beach House. The location was excellent, the view so beautiful, and it's close to many nice places to eat and shops in Kalkbaai. We visited during the lockdown, which means we mostly had to hang out at The Beach House. How grateful we were then for the choice. We couldn't ask for a more beautiful view - we felt pure luxury. It was freezing cold, so we were very grateful for the nice fireplace. Bring enough wood. If we can make any criticism it will only be about the towels. It was just a little small for the bigger bodies. And if it's winter - bring extra blankets and maybe your own pillow if you're full of fiemies. It was a bit flat. Furthermore, the service was very good, and we would definitely recommend the Beach House to everyone. We will definitely be back too!

Geen bedlampies. Min warm komberse vir koue aande.

Gorgeous house but room for improvement.

Although the house itself is stunning and has gorgeous views, the following leaves room for improvement. A lot of windows in the house don’t open. Dishwasher was not in working condition, had grimy and undissolved tablets in it. Glasses and oven dishes was dirty. Some plates and glasses are chipped or cracked. Alarm in top apartment where other visitors were staying kept going off 2/3 times for 2 days and the box for alarm is in the main house so we sat with the noise until sorted. They need to state in the listing that there is only 1 garage per house especially if large amounts of people is staying there. Otherwise it’s a lovely home with stunning views and calming sounds from the ocean. Tidal pool is just across the street and many restaurants so no need for cooking.

Lekker.

Net n paar goedjies waaraan hulle moet aandag gee: Voorste venster wou nie toegaan nie/sluit nie."Ge-chipte" borde en koppies asook vuil. Oond bakke nie skoon nie, het olie ingehad. As stoof/oond aangeskakel word, maak dit 'n snaakse geluid, nie altyd nie.

Nice.

Just a few things they need to pay attention to: Front window wouldn't close/lock." Chipped" plates and cups as well as dirt. Oven trays not clean, had oil in them. When stove/oven is turned on, it makes a funny sound, not always.

Fantastic stay. Spacious. Comfortable. Great location. Beautiful interior.

Suggestions - more comfy chairs in the living room. Early morning traffic does wake you. Incredible views over Fish Hoek Bay. Easy walking distance to Kalk Bay and restaurants. Beautiful interior. Strongly recommend this self-catering rental as a wonderful getaway.

Sielsjampanje!

Ons het ons tydjie by The Beach House baie geniet. Ons was 'n paar vriendinne van Durbanville en dit was so lekker om Kalkbaai te ervaar. Om in die winkels, galerye, restaurante en die see sommer net rond te dwaal. Ek het selfs twee keer geswem in die tidal pool. Kalkbaai is uniek met die treinspoor tussen die see en die hoofpad. Dit raak met tye net baie besig en raserig met die motors wat voor die huis verbyry. Die huis is heerlik, alles in wat ons nodig gehad het. Dalk net beter braaigeriewe vir ons boeremeisies!

Soul champagne!

We really enjoyed our time at The Beach House. We were a couple of friends from Durbanville and it was so nice to experience Kalkbaai. To just wander around in the shops, galleries, restaurants and the sea. I even swam twice in the tidal pool. Kalkbaai is unique with the railway between the sea and the main road. It just gets very busy and noisy at times with the cars passing in front of the house. The house is lovely, everything we needed. Maybe just better braai facilities for our farm girls!

Fantasiese akkommodasie.

The Beach House is 'n fantastiese verblyf opsie teenaan die see. Alhoewel ek parkering vir 'n tweede voertuig verwag het (na gelang van die aantal gaste wat dit akkommodeer) was die parkering buite in die straat darem heel veilig. Dit is uitstekende waarde vir jou geld.

Fantastic accommodation.

The Beach House is a fantastic accommodation option right by the sea. Although I expected parking for a second vehicle (due to the amount of guests the house accommodates) was there parking in the street that was quite safe. It is excellent value for money.

'n Stylvolle blyplek met moderne geriewe binne loopafstand van Kalkbaai se bedrywighede.

Die huis is nuut oorgedoen - modern, gerieflik, 'airy' en stylvol. Oorgenoeg plek vir 2 gesinne met aparte ruimtes vir tieners. Gesellige binnebrand-stofie. Wonderlik ingerigte kombuis maar loopafstand van Kalkbaai se baie en interessante restaurante as jy nie lus is om te kook nie.

A stylish place with modern amenities which is within walking distance of Kalk Bay's activities.

The house has been redone recently - modern, comfortable, airy and stylish. There is enough room for 2 families with separate rooms for teenagers. Cosy indoor woodburning stove. Wonderfully equipped kitchen. Walking distance from Kalk Bay's many interesting restaurants if you do not feel like cooking.
