A home away from home!

The Rainbow House was a peaceful getaway from the city buzz. It had everything we needed, clean and safe. The host was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

Charming, pretty and peaceful.

The location is wonderful, set in the trees and a short walk from the lagoon. The house is charming and spacious, but not suitable for young kids under 6 or elderly people, as the stairs are very narrow and steep (this wasn't a problem for us as we have teens).

Relaxing stay in nature.

We stayed for two nights at The Rainbow House and had a very nice experience. Beautifully located in nature, the house is charming, and the alarm makes you feel safe leaving your valuables inside. Just be aware that you need to turn on the geyser when you arrive because we all had to shower cold the first morning as it was not mentioned to us.

Our stay was peaceful and tranquil, away from the hustle and bustle.

The accommodation was great, everything was clean and cosy, the steps upstairs is a bit steep but you have a bedroom and bathroom downstairs no need for kids to be running up and down. Spa bath on the balcony is an added bonus if you want to just soak up the tranquility around you. The pool at the clubhouse is also great and only about 3 minutes walk. The people are friendly and helpful always smiling. Our stay was amazing and its not too far from Cape Town making travelling time less. We will definitely refer it to our friends and family and will be back, the break was too short. Thank you Candace and the team.

Kon baie lekkerder gekuier het as die eienaar aandag gee aan netheid en die plek beter instand hou.

Rainbow House is baie goed geleë. Die braai-area is heerlik gesellig en baie beskut. Die beddens slaap lekker. Daar moet aandag gegee word aan die netheid en instandhouding. By die boonste slaaparea moet daar deur die een slaapkamer gestap word om by die badkamer uit te kom. Waar die alarm geaktiveer moet word is by die deur reg langs die toilet in die onderste badkamer.

Could have had a much nicer stay if the owner paid attention to cleanliness and maintained the place better.

Rainbow House is very well located. The braai area is wonderfully cozy and very sheltered. The beds sleep well. Attention must be paid to cleanliness and maintenance. In the upper sleeping area, you have to walk through one bedroom to get to the bathroom. Where the alarm should be activated is at the door right next to the toilet in the downstairs bathroom.

A lovely getaway in nature. Quiet and relaxing.

We were a party of 5 adults and found it suited our needs. Lovely and serene with a wonderful boma area. The house was fully equipped with 2 bathrooms and a wonderful spa bath on the balcony. Meerenbosch is a lovely estate with a pool, tennis courts and a little cafe that stocked wood and ice. The owner was very responsive to any queries. Our weekend stay was too short and we didn't get time to kayak, but the house has its own pathway to the lagoon, which revealed beautiful views.

It was a great venue, just experienced bad weather.

The entrance and exit requirements are a hassle needing pins. If you don't have especially when there are 2 cars - you are stranded.

I enjoyed my stay.

Love the braai area and the view of the sea. The only thing is, the drains were blocked. When washing dishes all the dirty water comes up in the shower tub. The stairs is not suitable for elderly. The bottom toilet had a bad smell. Other then all my complaints we made the best of it.

Rustig, pragtige uitsig maar trappe was scary.

Sou lekker gewees het om op die meer te gaan maar was nie seker of ons kon nie.

Baie geniet, veral die rustigheid.

Met die huis en ligging kan jy nie kla nie, jy voel deel van die natuur met al die pragtige bome en die voëltjies wat om jou sing. Sou net verkies dat daar 'n binnebraai moet wees, veral vir koue aande.

Enjoyed a lot, especially the tranquility.

With the house and location you can't complain, you feel part of nature with all the beautiful trees and the birds singing around you. Would just prefer there to be an indoor braai, especially for cold evenings.

Lovely for young people who can climb stairs.

Cute and cozy. No view from the stoep but close enough to walk to the lagoon and beach. Small oven.
