Ons lekkerste kuier nog ooit by die see.

Baie lekker gebly, kamer is lekker beskut teen die wind. Pragtige uitsig. Tania is awesome.

Dit was ’n wonderlike kuier.

Elke tweede dag is kamers gediens. Linne slegs een keer in 7 dae vervang.

Teleurgesteld.

Hierdie foto is oud, die plek lyk nie meer so nie, hierdie foto lyk soos 'n vakansiehuis maar dis eintlik 'n gastehuis met 'n ontvangsdame. Tania, die ontvangsdame is fantasties, goeie menseverhoudings gee goeie inligting deur, sy is 'n ster. Die eenheid waarin ons geslaap het voel soos 'n ou oord, swak handdoeke en swak linne, ons duet het gaatjies in gehad, ek het dit gesien nadat Tania gesê het sy was nie bewus dat ons ons hond saambring nie anders sou sy die pet friendly linne opgesit het, sy het ook die mat verwyder want hulle vra 'n R100 pet skoonmaakfooi. Ek is net bly sy het nie geweet van ons hond nie, want hoe sou daardie duvet dan gelyk het. Ek het nog nooit van so iets in my lewe gehoor nie, en ons reis gereeld met ons hond. Die toiletsitplek is deurgesit en het na piepie geruik, nie 'n nice garage nie. Ek wou eintlik my tande in die kombuis geborsel het, want om jou tong te borsel en ou pee in te asem is nie vir almal nie. Die water in die stort is ook pateties, ek verstaan daar is waterbeperkinge maar die eienaar stel die geyser op die laagste temperatuur sodat jy nie koue water by moet gebruik nie, dit was nogsteeds te koud en die waterdruk is swak, jy sal nie jou hare kan was onder daardie water nie, dit was koud en reënerig in Jeffreys en dan wil 'n mens net bietjie warm word, maar nie in daai stort nie. Ek voel die eienaar van die plek squeeze elke sent uit en sit nie terug in die plek nie, of wel nie onlangs nie. Ons het heelwat goedkoper betaal vir plekke wat uitstekend was en nie net gebargain op die see of die area nie. Ek verstaan dat dit gaan oor location, location, location. Maar regtig, as jy mense R950 per nag wil vra, hê net bietjie respek vir jou gaste om 'n ordentlike toiletsitplek te voorsien. Die plek sou nie R450 gehaal het as dit nie by die see was nie. Ek hoop dat die eienaar in 2020 bietjie geld insit want die plek het baie potensiaal.

Disappointed.

This photo is old, the place doesn't look like that anymore, this photo looks like a holiday home but it's actually a guest house with a receptionist. Tania, the receptionist is fantastic, good human relations pass on good information, she is a star. The unit we slept in felt like an old resort, poor towels and poor linen, our duet had holes in it, I saw this after Tania said she wasn't aware we were bringing our dog or she would be pet friendly put up linen, she also removed the carpet because they charge a R100 pet cleaning fee. I'm just glad she didn't know about our dog, because then what would that duvet have looked like. I have never heard of anything like this in my life, and we travel with our dog often. The toilet seat was put through and smelled of pee, not a nice garage. I actually wanted to brush my teeth in the kitchen because brushing your tongue and breathing in old pee isn't for everyone. The water in the shower is also pathetic, I understand there are water restrictions but the owner sets the geyser to the lowest temperature so you don't have to use cold water, it was still too cold and the water pressure is weak, you won't hurt your hair can't wash under that water, it was cold and rainy in Jeffreys and then you just want to warm up a little, but not in that shower. I feel the owner of the place is squeezing every penny out and not putting back into the place, or not recently. We paid a lot cheaper for places that were excellent and not just bargains on the sea or the area. I understand that it is about location, location, location. But really, if you want to charge people R950 a night, just have some respect for your guests to provide a decent toilet seat. The place wouldn't have fetched R450 if it wasn't by the sea. I hope that the owner invests some money in 2020 because the place has a lot of potential.

Fantastiese uitsig! Vriendelike diens, netjiese kamers.

Ons verblyf was wonderlik. Tania is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die kamers is presies wat die advertensie sê. Die Luxury Seaview kamer het die ongelooflikste uitsig. Die kamer is ruim met alles wat jy nodig het. Dit is awesome om te stort of bad met 'n uitsig oor die see! Ek het verseker my verblyf gevind vir toekomstige kuiers in Jeffreys.

Our stay was wonderful. Tania is very friendly and helpful. The rooms are exactly what the ad says. The Luxury Seaview room has the most incredible view. The room is spacious with everything you need. It's awesome to shower or bathe with a view of the sea! I have certainly found my accommodation for future visits to Jeffreys.

Ons het regtig meer verwag.

Ons het lank voor die tyd bespreek. Ons het nie 'n seefront-kamer bespreek nie, maar verwag darem dat die kamer andersins op standaard sal wees. Dit was nie. Die handdoeke en linne was gevlek. Die badkamermatjie ook glad nie op standaard nie.

We really expected more.

We booked well in advance. We didn't book an ocean front room, but at least expect the room to be up to standard otherwise. It wasn't. The towels and linen were stained. The bathroom mat is also not up to standard.

Lilian,
Dankie vir jou resensie.
Ek is baie jammer dat julle nie die verblyf op standaard gevind het nie. Ek het met jou man gesels die volgende dag en aangebied dat julle op n ander keer weer n nag by ons kom oorslaap. Hy het dit van die hand gewys op daardie stadium. Ek het jou ook op jou foon probeer kontak en n boodskap gelaat.
Ek sal nou n tweede aanbod maak en se dat ons julle graag vir n nag in een van ons see uitsig kamers wil ontvang in die hoop dat dit vir julle n beter ervaring sal wees.
Voel asseblief vry om my te skakel en dit te reel.
Dankie, Tania

Not meeting expectations.

Well located. Friendly welcome, but fan and DSTV channels did not work. In addition, on an extremely hot weekend, despite our request, the manager did not want to unlock the sliding door, because the balcony was under construction. Units where construction is taking place should not be let out. Fan was replaced after the first night.

Disappointing.

From the day we arrived till the day we left, (12 days), we saw not one member of management or staff. The unit was not swept or linen changed for the full 12 days we were there. No outside lights were on during the evening / night so you went out after dark, AT YOUR OWN RISK down the stairs. The TV did not work at all. It is a beautiful area but I will definitely not recommend the Beach House to anyone.

Woorde kan nie die teleurstelling beskryf nie.

Ons was omtrent 2 uur daar, moes iemand soek om ons in te boek. Die vroutjie wat die wasgoed gedoen het, het ons gehelp. Sy was 'n ster om so rond te hardloop. Die uitsig was amazing en dis waar dit eindig. Daar was geen borde, messe, vurke en braaigeriewe nie. ('n Weber). Daar was vir ons gesê ons kan voor die onderste woonstel braai. Die unit was baie klein en beknop."Hangkas" wat skaars hangplek het. Geen haardroër, yskassie klein en nie ontvries nie. Ons het ander verblyf gaan soek en onnodig geld verloor. Dit na amper 9 ure op die pad en om dan so teleurgestel te word, geen veilige parkering nie (in die straat).

I cannot put my disappointment into words.

We were there for about 2 hours and had to look for someone to book us in. The woman who does the laundry helped us. She was a star to run around on our behalf. The view was amazing, but that's where it ends. There were no plates, knives, forks and braai facilities, even though we were told we could braai in front of the bottom apartment. The unit was very small and cramped. The wardrobe barely had any space. No hair dryer, fridge too small and not cleared of ice build-up. We went to look for other accommodation and lost money unnecessarily. Being so disappointed after almost 9 hours on the road and no safe parking (had to park in te street).
