Onverbeterlike vriendelike diens. Renee is absoluut fantasties en menslik.

Interessante huis met lieflike kamers en mense. Rustige en baie lieflike hondekind️. Beeld van Moses was so opvallend en my sommer nader aan Here laat voel.

Luuks maar huislik.

Baie luukse verblyf, netjies, hulpvaardige, vriendelike ontvangs; Het die gebruik van die kombuis- en kuier-area waardeer, ook dat ons tegemoetgekom is en later kon uitklok toe een van ons lede siek geword het.

Mooi gedeelde uitsig. Kamer goed ingerig. 2 verdiepings trappe.

Die slaapkamer was goed toegerus. Die koffie- maak area is buite die kamer, so neem 'n kamerjas saam om buite jou kamer te gaan koffie maak. Daar is twee verdiepings se trappe. Dit staan nerens aangeteken nie. Die kommunikasie was vinnig en die bestuurder is baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die uitsig is fantasties. Mens kyk van die gedeelde stoep bo oor die huise en kyk op die see en lagoon. En dis beskut, so mens kan op die stoep sit.

Nice shared view. Room well furnished. 2 floors of stairs.

The bedroom was well equipped. The coffee making area is outside the room, so take a dressing gown with you to make coffee outside your room. There are two floors of stairs. It is not recorded anywhere. The communication was fast and the manager is very friendly and helpful. The view is fantastic. One looks from the shared stoep above over the houses and looks at the sea and lagoon. And it's sheltered, so you can sit on the stoep.

Kwaliteit met nadele.

Daarvoor: Kon die see sien en hoor. Kwaliteit linne en handdoeke. Baie skoon en netjies. Daarteen: Baie trappe tot by kamer (kan ander mense dalk probleem gee). Was vas geparkeer en moes wag tot ander gas wakker gemaak is. Parkering 'n probleem. Geen koffiemaakgeriewe in kamer, word alles gedeel met ander 6 kamers in oop area. Min privaatheid. Balkon gedeel en kamers se deure 1 m weg van mekaar. Kan nader se gesels hoor. Die ander gaste wat 23:00 - 00:00 nog in oop area sit en kuier hoor mense duidelik tot in jou kamer. Die fotos is so geneem dat die kamer aansienlik groter lyk; maar wasbak in die kamer self; knap stort. Persoonlik nie 'n aanhanger van net blindings in 'n kamer nie. Sou gordyne verkies - veral as jy 1m van jou bure se skuifdeur is.

Quality with disadvantages.

Before: Could see and hear the sea. Quality linen and towels. Very clean and tidy. Cons: Lots of stairs to the room (might give other people a problem). Was stuck parked and had to wait until other guests were woken up. Parking a problem. No coffee making facilities in room, everything is shared with other 6 rooms in open area. Little privacy. Balcony shared and rooms' doors 1 m away from each other. Can hear closer's conversation. The other guests who are still sitting and visiting in the open area from 23:00 - 00:00 hear people clearly in your room. The photos were taken in such a way that the room looks significantly larger; but sink in the room itself; nice shower Personally not a fan of just blinds in a room. Would prefer curtains - especially if you are 1m from your neighbours' sliding door.

Mooi plek met vrek baie trappe.

Ideaal vir jonger mense wat swaar bagasie teen baie trappe kan uitdra. Skoonmaak van eenhede kort aandag, veral sand op matte en vloere. Braairoosters ook baie geroes/vuil so ons kon nie braai nie. Handdoeke ruik ook bedompig. Nantucket se eienares het egter onlangs 'n mediese terugslag gehad en ek glo dit sou anders wees as sy daar was. Dit is egter 'n stylvolle gemeubileerde plek met baie mooi kunswerke. Baie leesgoed en ook speletjies vir die gesin.

Nice place with a lot of stairs.

Ideal for younger people who can carry heavy luggage up many flights of stairs. Cleaning of units needs attention, especially sand on carpets and floors. Grills were also very rusty/dirty so we couldn't grill. Towels also smell musty. However, Nantucket's owner recently had a medical setback and I believe it would be different if she was there. However, it is a stylishly furnished place with very nice artwork. Lots of reading material and also games for the family.

I understand there are circumstances that have an impact on the place. I hope everything works out in the owner's interest.

Lacking communication.

No communication as to when we can check in or how, ended up driving there to ring the bell and hoot until someone came to the door who had no idea that we even booked and we were taken in through the back door. No hospitality or warm welcome and a the same on the exit. I will not recommend a stay at Nantucket.

Dit was 'n heerlike, rustige wegbreek.

Die verblyf was baie goed en netjies. Daar was ’n balkon waar ons kon sit om die see-uitsig te bewonder. Goeie geriewe vir selfsorg met alles wat mens nodig het. Baie goeie gasvrou wat ons dadelik tuis laat voel het. Veilige parkeerplek.

Huis weg van die huis.

Ons was aangenaam verras met The Nuntucket. Ons het 'n heerlike kamer gehad wat mooi seefront uitsig gehad het. Alles is netjies, skoon en het die stempel van die eienaars wat albei groot rondreis entoesiaste is. Ons het elke oggend by ontbyt 'n lekker gesprek met die "kaalvroet klong", Dwayne, gehad wat lekker gesels terwyl hy vir jou ontbyt maak. Vat 'n bietjie tyd en gesels met hom. Dwayne is 'n fontein van kennis as dit by Hermans kom. Hy kan jou na al die groot toeriste aantreklikhede in die omgewing stuur, maar jy wil hê hy moet jou vertel van al die weggesteekte juwele. Ons het wonderlike klein keldertjies en plase besoek wat hy aanbeveel het en hulle was almal absoluut die moeite werd om te sien. Jy kry ook detail inligting oor al die kelders in die Hemel-en-Aarde vallei. Hy het ook albei aande vir ons die heerlikste eetplekke aanbeveel en selfs vir ons die bespreking gemaak. Albei aande se kos was van uitstaande gehalte. The Nuntucket sien ons weer.

Home away from home.

We were pleasantly surprised with The Nuntucket. We had a lovely room with a nice sea front view. Everything is neat, clean and has the stamp of the owners who are both great travel enthusiasts. Every morning at breakfast we had a nice conversation with the "bare-eating klong", Dwayne, who has a nice chat while he makes you breakfast. Take some time and talk to him. Dwayne is a fountain of knowledge when it comes to Hermans. He can direct you to all the major tourist attractions in the area, but you want him to tell you about all the hidden gems. We visited wonderful little cellars and farms that he recommended and they were all absolutely worth seeing. You also get detailed information about all the cellars in the Hemel-en-Arde valley. He also recommended the most delicious places to eat for us both nights and even made the reservation for us. Both evenings the food was of excellent quality. The Nuntucket see us again.

Wonderlike eenheid, net wat ons nodig gehad het en lekker warm gevoel in die huis.

Lekker om jou kar in die motorhuis te kan parkeer, binne die veiligheidshek. Hou daarvan dat elke kamer 'n sleutel en remote vir die kamer en veiligheidshek het. Kamer was baie skoon, wonderlike uitsig en die leef area op die boonste vloer gee 'n lekker "homy-feel" aan die huis. Die personeel was vriendelike, warm en baie behulpsaam. Ontbyt was uit die boeke.

Wonderful unit, just what we needed and nice and warm feeling in the house.

Nice to be able to park your car in the garage, inside the security gate. Love that each room has a key and remote for the room and security gate. Room was very clean, great view and the living area on the top floor gives a nice "homy-feel" to the house. The staff were friendly, warm and very helpful. Breakfast was off the books.

I think it is ridiculous to pay R1500 a night for a B&B, but there is no breakfast?

We were asked what time we wanted breakfast, and then she said no, you can go to a restaurant instead, I'm not going to make it just for the two of you. Could have stayed in a 5 star for the same price with breakfast included! Also the DStv remote control was broken, couldn't change channels at all, and the owner was out for the night! Will definitely go back to our regular guest house on the sea instead next time!
