Pragtige plek met 'n fantastiese uitsig en beslis waarde vir geld.

Ons was geweldig tevrede met die plek wat ons gekies het. Wat 'n vriendelike ontvangs! Als was so netjies en skoon. Nou kan ons met 'n geruste hart ons bespreking vir ons volgende besoek aan hierdie plek in Jongensfontein maak.

Ons sal volgende keer langer daar wil bly.

Ons het net daar oornag en kan nie veel kommentaar lewer nie. Ontvangs was goed en die ligging is uitstekend met mooi uitsigte oor die see.

Jongensfontein is the place to be if you want to relax and enjoy a quiet getaway.

Ons het ons naweek in Stilbaai/Jongensfontein geniet en die weer was baie lekker.

Eerstes wil ons vir Dolly bedank vir die vriendelike ontvangs en ons welkom laat voel het. Graag die volgende as opbouend met betrekking tot die wooneenheid waarin ons was. 1. Die parkeer area kan doen met 'n lig, miskien een met 'n sensor want dit is baie donker in die aande. 2. Die toegang na die eenheid is gevaarlik vir bejaarde persone, 'n skuins toegang met geen hand reeling of enige beskerming aan die regterkant en dit is nogal hoog sou jy val. 3. See uitsig kry jy as jy staan in die leef area en kan baie help as die hout struktuur wat geen doel dien, verwyder word, dan sal dit 'n baie mooi uitsig wees uit die leef area. (Die kamers se see-uitsig moet baie mooi wees, daar is geen strukture voor dit nie). 4. Vir die prys glo ons handdoeke moet beskikbaar wees, praat nie van strandhanddoeke nie. 5. Die badkamer is prakties maar sal 'n glas afskorting nie die badkamer meer komplimenteer nie. Hoop dit word nie gesien as kritiek nie.

We enjoyed our weekend in Stilbaai/Jongensfontein and the weather was very nice.

First we would like to thank Dolly for the friendly reception and making us feel welcome. Would like the following as constructive regarding the housing unit we were in. 1. The parking area could do with a light, maybe one with a sensor because it is very dark in the evenings. 2. The access to the unit is dangerous for elderly persons, an inclined access with no hand rail or any protection on the right side and it is quite high should you fall. 3. You get a sea view if you stand in the living area and can help a lot if the wooden structure that serves no purpose is removed, then it will be a very nice view from the living area. (The rooms' sea view must be very nice, there are no structures in front of it). 4. For the price we believe towels should be available, not talking about beach towels. 5. The bathroom is practical but a glass partition would no longer compliment the bathroom. Hope this is not seen as criticism.

Hallo Leentjie
Baie dankie vir jul terugvoering, dit word baie waardeer. Ons is bewus van die lig by parkering en handreëling oppad na woonstel en ons gaan onmiddelik aandag daaraan gee. Die handoeke is n groot fout aan ons kant, want ons gee gewoonlik handoeke. Jammer daaroor. Jy moes sommer dadelik vir my gebel het. Die glaspaneel is n wonderlike idee.
Hoop ons sien julle weer in die toekoms, sodat ons kan opmaak vir jul teleurstellende ervaring.
Baie dankie weereens vir jul terugvoering.
Groete Dolly

Alles waarvoor 'n mens kan vra en meer.

Die veblyf was uitstekend, met 'n mooi see-uitsig en is stapafstand van die strand af. Die eenheid is goed toegerus en mens kan sien dat daar baie moeite ingesit is om 'n mens te laat tuis voel. Die beste is Dolly en haar Man wat persoonlik moeite gedoen het om ons wegbreek ekstra spesiaal te maak.

Netjiese verblyf met die brusiende see se geklank in jou ore en see-uitsig vanaf jou braaiplek. Baie goed geleë en lekker privaat, al is dit op dieselfde erf wat die eienaars woon. Nie te groot en nie te klein.

Goeie waarde vir geld verblyf en tog beslis nie budget tipe akkommodasie nie. Eerder luuks vir Jongensfontien. Vriendelike gasvrou wat baie behulpsaam is. Ons sal weer besoek.
