Asemrowend.

Pragtige groot huis, perfek geleë op die see. Ons kon nie vir beter vra nie. Dit is ons 20ste huweliksherdenking.

Breathtaking.

Beautiful large house, perfectly located on the sea. We couldn't ask for better. This is our 20th wedding anniversary.

Lieflike ligging reg teen die see - priceless.

Die huis se ligging is puik, selfs beskut teen die Suidooster met groot skuifdeure. Die huis is ingerig met alles wat jy nodig het en die feit dat ons ons honde kon saamneem was 'n bonus. Maar die ligging bly 'n absolute hoogtepunt!

Lovely location right by the sea - priceless.

The house's location is great, even sheltered from the Southeast with large sliding doors. The house is furnished with everything you need and the fact that we could take our dogs with us was a bonus. But the location remains an absolute highlight!

Unpleasant

I am writing to share my recent experience with the rental property I booked through your agency and to address the unpleasant stay I had during the entire duration of my visit. Upon arrival at the property, I was impressed by the beautiful house and was initially looking forward to a pleasant stay. However, it saddens me to report that my experience was marred by several unsettling incidents. The most distressing of which occurred when my guests and I were abruptly asked to vacate the premises by the agency's representatives, who arrived with both police and security personnel. This was an incredibly distressing and humiliating experience, especially as it occurred when we were in the midst of our stay. Furthermore, to our shock and dismay, the agency's representatives entered the property while we were sleeping and insisted that we vacate the premises immediately. The entire ordeal was handled in a manner that was not only unprofessional but also deeply unsettling. It goes without saying that this experience has left a lasting impact and has greatly diminished my confidence in your agency and the properties it represents. I sincerely hope that this unsettling experience can be addressed promptly and amicably. As a loyal customer and a proponent of your agency's services, I would appreciate a resolution that not only rectifies the distressing treatment we received but also helps re-establish the trust and confidence I had in your agency. I kindly request a full investigation into the matter and a genuine effort to ensure that such incidents do not occur in the future. Additionally, I would appreciate appropriate compensation or alternative arrangements for the distress and inconvenience caused by this ordeal. I trust that you will address this matter with the seriousness it deserves and provide a swift and satisfactory resolution. I am hopeful that our future interactions with your agency will uphold the standards of professionalism and respect that I have come to expect. I look forward to your prompt response and a mutually acceptable solution.

The accommodation at Turtle Drum is absolutely beautiful, especially the views from the patio.

It is an amazing place to stay at. It is a bit rustic, but highly recommended.

Great location but really needs attention.

Great location, right on beach, great to take dogs but house needs maintenance at the current rates we expect to have house in better condition.

Gerieflik.

Lekker naby die strand en sentraal om die omliggende dorpe te besoek.

It was such a relaxing stay with the sea just a few steps away.

The services and managing agents were excellent. We loved the location and didn't want to leave. It was very spacious, well equipped and just a stone throw away from the beach. We had every intention of venturing out to explore the town but found ourselves being between the house and the beach the whole time.

Besonderse huis langs die see.

Hierdie was vir ons die beste huis en ligging sover op Betties. Die huis is prakties, groot, met baie karakter, en reg op die see met 'n mooi groot strand (Silversands). Jy kan sommer iemand sien 'n galjoen vang 30 m voor die huis op hoogwater! Ons het lekker gerus en die mooi uitsig geniet.

Special house by the sea.

This was for us the best house and location so far on Betties. The house is practical, big, with a lot of character, and right on the sea with a nice big beach (Silversands). You can just see someone catch a galleon 30 m in front of the house at high tide! We rested well and enjoyed the beautiful view.

A thing of beauty is a joy to behold.

Terrific value for money. I cannot fathom staying anywhere else when visiting Betty's Bay again, and my family and friends concur. Super service from Lucille to boot.

It was great.

The place is nice, but needs a touch up. Owners can look at giving the place a modern look that can attract more people and also have more pictures on the advert.

World class accommodation, a hidden gem.

Stunning holiday home right on the beach. Gorgeous views and all the facilities you need. We will definitely be back, this is a fantastic breakaway destination. Very peaceful. Despite heat main bedroom was very cool and pleasant. You can eat at the dining table and open the sliding door and hear the ocean or relax outside with a snack. Braai area well covered and fireplace is a gem. The only real problem we had is that we have now been spoiled and as we travel at least once a month will be hard to find a place that matches this beautiful holiday home.
