They have so many fees that are being charged on top of the breakages fee. I feel that it shouldn't be charged separately, as guests we should be given a once-off fee to pay and they can split it among themselves.

Amazing view and lovely, peaceful apartment, needs some TLC though.
It's a beautiful apartment with a fantastic view! However, small things that suffer from the sea and salt need a little maintenance. However, the cleaning service was not that great. We were four ladies and therefore didn't really mess up, but the floors weren't swept or washed on Saturday morning.

Part of a daily service is sweeping and mopping, I will take this up with the cleaners. Apologies for that.

Apartment has comfortable rooms, although the bathrooms are very small.
No black bags for trash. We didn't have towels on Friday night and Saturday morning. Cleaners only unlocked cupboards on Saturday morning to take out towels. Not all the bedside lamps work, as well as some of the headlights. Some of the furniture needs TLC. Every time we struggled to get doors to the porch open because poor maintenance. Drawer in kitchen front panel is down. We were 6 adults and there were only 5 plates and a small plastic bowl. Very nice view of the sea.

Had a great time despite beaches being closed.
Apartment located in a nice location - pity that apartment is not well maintained. The apartment is located in the perfect location. The owner should find another agency to look after his/her apartment. The agency really let us down. The apartment was not ready on arrival - the agency just shrugged. We had to wait more than an hour before we could unpack. Linens did not match the beds, pillows were dirty and were given to the cleaner to throw away. The cleaner is not trained to clean at all and does not have the right cleaning products to do her job. There were many problems such as a broken shower door, stove, headboards falling off and others that were partially fixed only after 2 days. The inventory list was totally incomplete and was so mentioned to the agency. However, thanks to the website that tried hard to solve the problem.

Wow, where do I start. The Island 2 is really a very nice place.
It is clean, tidy, peaceful and very beautiful. The apartment overlooks the sea which makes it that much more enjoyable. It is very close to the sea and the shops. The people who live in the apartment complex are very friendly and like to chat. The price is really very good and will definitely go there again!

Island 2 needs some TLC, stove needs replacing, rusted and falling out of mounting cabinet, dishwasher rusted on door, furniture not clean, living room and two yellow chairs need some carpet shampoo! There should be a decoder as part of the housing unit. Nice Weber gas grill, short service, the burners only let a quarter of the gas through on the grill. We were just two people, it didn't bother us much, a bigger family might have complained! We had a great time!

Wonderful sea view.
We arrived in Ballito just before four o'clock on Monday. Karin from Chad communicated with us regularly to hear how our trip was progressing. Karin is truly an asset to that company. The place to stay was stunning, although the TV and dishwasher were not working on arrival, Karin did make sure we were provided with a new TV set the next day. The dishwasher was not working until we left, but Karin made sure that the cleaner washed our dishes every day. I would recommend that the owner consider having an air con installed in the future. I would also recommend that they look into making the outside chairs and table more comfortable, so that one can appreciate the beautiful sea view for longer. We will definitely use that place again as there are few places in the country that are dog friendly.

Good mattresses, clean, white bedding and a great sea view. Have breakfast with your sunglasses on the stoep and grill a chop on the gas grill. I recommend it to people who love to hear the sea roaring in their ears all the time.

We had a lovely stay but we have a few suggestions: Better signal, WiFi-access, reparation of broken facilities e.g. air-con, windows that can't open, rusty locks, etc. and cleaning services at least once a month for a thorough clean. Also have a look at the big sliding gate that doesn't work properly.

Dankie vir u resensie.
Ongelukkig is die selfoon sein baie swak, ek sal dit op die webwerf noem.
Vanaf November was die eenheid permanent bespreek en ons kon nie die nodige opknap werk doen nie. Soos genoem is dit op skedule for volgende week. Die roes bly 'n probleem by die kus en word gereeld na omgesien. Ek sal moet kyk na die skoonmaakdienste want eenheid word gereeld skoongemaak en net 2 dae voor u aankoms is 'n "spring clean" gedoen.
Ek was ongelukkig nie bewus daarvan dat die hek buite werking was nie, maar is vandag ingelig dat dit weer buite werking is en ek het dit onder die aandag van die Besturende agente gebring
Ek waardeer u aanbevelings .
Groete Karen

The stay was pleasant.
We had a nice stay with children in the house. The living area is very nice and spacious. Our complaints were unfortunately more than one: The glasses were not sufficient, with only oversized soda glasses and no tall and beer glasses. There are no plugs in the bathroom sinks, which was an annoyance and doesn't take into account water conservation at all (but the notices for water conservation are posted everywhere). The second room had no bedside lamp. There are no power points at the mirrors (or there are no mirrors at the power points). The cleaners did not move the beds away from the wall when cleaning before we went in as we found dirty socks and coins under one bed when we moved them against each other. The DSTV is not suitable for PVR/Explora decoders. We should have gone and bought a weaker one. It would do the place a lot of good to install DSTV permanently. Fortunately the lady at Chas Everitt was very kind to provide us with their decoder at no cost. We had a great stay, thank you very much.

Good day Madri,
Thank you for your feedback.
Apologies regarding the problems at the unit. I have attended to all the problems since your departure. I was at the unit myself on the day of your arrival and I did not even notice that the basin plugs (one was found on dining room chair) were also missing along with a number of items, even keys, which were missing from the departure that morning. The bedroom lamp had broken but has been replaced. The coffee mugs were also missing from the departure but were replaced the day of your arrival. The cleaners normally move the beds when doing an arrival and I have made them aware of this once again thank you. I am trying to get all our owners to put in DStv, and hopefully we can have this done asap. Kind Regards and hope to hear from you again soon. Karen von Wielligh

Good afternoon Mari,
Thank you for your feedback.
The fans are due for the annual service next month, and we will revise the condition of pots, pans, etc.
I apologise for the black chair that broke (as per my sms to you), it was actually one of my own personal chairs that I dropped off as 2 of the white chairs were sun damaged. I am not sure why it broke as they have not been out in the sun but stored in a garage, maybe just a very weak make.
I have let the body corporate know re the communal swimming pool.
We look forward to being able to help you with accommodation in the future.
Kind Regards,
Karen von Wielligh
