Fantastiese wegbreek.

Sal beslis weer kom! Die huis en uitsig is stunning en het als wat jy nodig het. Ek sal net bysit dat daar wel WiFi, wasgoedmasjien en opvou stoë beskikbaar is. Sowel dat die pad na die strand toe vreeslik steil is en nie geskik is vir ouer mense wat sukkel om te loop nie.

Fantastic getaway.

Will definitely come again! The house and view is stunning and has everything you need. I would just add that there is Wi-Fi, washing machine and folding chairs available. Also that the road to the beach is terribly steep and not suitable for older people who have difficulty walking.

Uitstekend ligging, puik diens, kos vir die siel.

Die eienaar van die huis, Roman, wie in 'n ander deel van die land woon, gaan uit sy pad om mens se verblyf 'n genot te maak. Patience, wat op die perseel woon, is 'n absolute juweel.

Excellent location, great service, food for the soul.

The owner of the house, Roman, who lives in another part of the country, goes out of his way to make one's stay a pleasure. Patience, who lives on site, is an absolute gem.

Vriendelike diens, netjies en rustig.

Die diens en behulpsaamheid van Precious is uitstaande. Die huis is baie netjies en lekker vir 'n groot gesin of familie saamtrek. Daar is alles wat jy nodig het en nog meer. Die uitsig is asemrowend en as die weer saamspeel kuier jy die hele dag op die stoep. Die starand is 'n klipgooi van die hek af en dit is skoon en rustig.

Friendly service, neat and quiet.

The service and helpfulness of Precious is outstanding. The house is very neat and nice for a large family or family gathering. There is everything you need and more. The view is breathtaking and if the weather cooperates you can spend the whole day on the stoep. The beach is a stone's throw from the gate and it is clean and peaceful.

Pragtige huis, netjies en skoon.

Pragtige huis,baie netjies en skoon. Ligging is puik,naby die strand en in 'n stil omgewing. Huis is goed toegerus met als wat mens nodig het. Kamers netjies, met gemaklike beddens. Badkamers baie modern en skoon. Die huishulp Patience is baie behulpsaam en altyd vriendelik. Die nagwag gee ekstra gemoedsrus en hou almal en als veilig. Verdien vir seker 'n 5 ster. Sal vir seker weer gaan, kan nie wag nie.

Beautiful house, very neat and clean. Location is great, close to the beach and in a quiet environment. House is well equipped with everything you need. Rooms neat, with comfortable beds. Bathrooms very modern and clean. The housekeeper Patience is very helpful and always friendly. The night guard gives extra peace of mind and keeps everyone and everything safe. Deserves a 5 star for sure. Will go again for sure, can't wait.

Baie lekker gekuier. Baie gemaklik en mooi so na aan die strand. Baie veilig.

Kan dalk 'n wasgoedlyn, of nog beter, 'n tuimeldroër aanbeveel, want arme Patience het haar dood gesukkel met die wasgoed.

Had a great time. Very comfortable and beautiful so close to the beach. Very safe.

Might recommend a clothesline, or even better, a tumble dryer, as poor Patience struggled to death with the laundry.

Baie lekker vakansiebestemming.

Pragtige uitsig oor die see vanaf die stoep. Direkte toegang na die strand. Trappe in die huis kan uitdaging wees vir ouer mense en/of kleiner kinders. Kombuis goed toegerus. Dankie Patience vir jou vriendelikheid en Roman die eienaar vir die goeie kliëntediens.

Dit was die moeite werd.

Foto's kan misleidend wees. In hierdie geval is dit wat jy sien, is wat jy kry. Ons ontvangs was vriendelik. Het 'n probleem met dekodeerder gehad, maar met hulp van eienaar is dit vinnig opgelos. Sekuriteit was baie goed. Daar is verskeidenheid voëls, sal voorstel maak dat eienaar 'n "birdfeeder" plaas. As u wil rus, dit is die plek. Sal ons weer sien.

It was worth it.

Photos can be misleading. In this case, what you see is what you get. Our reception was friendly. Had a problem with decoder but with help from owner it was quickly resolved. Security was very good. There are variety of birds, would suggest that owner place a "birdfeeder". If you want to rest, this is the place. Will see you again.

Lekker groot en ruim huis.

Ons was vasgevang in die huis vir 2 dae omdat dit stormweer buite was. Behalwe vir dit was die plek beslis nie gereed gemaak vir ons aankoms nie. Die skoonmaker moes inderhaas beddegoed probeer oortrek, stryk, ens. Ons moes omtrent 3 ure wag voordat ons na ons kamers kon gaan. Deur die nag het dit so hard gereën en op verskeie plekke ingereën. Een kamer se beddegoed naaste aan die venster het heeltemal natgereën. Die huis kort beslis TLC. Ten spyte daarvan het ons nogtans lekker gekuier en die huis het beslis potensiaal, veral omdat dit direkte toegang tot die strand bied.

Nice big and spacious house.

We were trapped in the house for 2 days because it was stormy outside. Other than that, the place was definitely not prepared for our arrival. The cleaner had to hurriedly try to cover bed linen, iron, etc. We had to wait about 3 hours before we could go to our rooms. During the night it rained so hard and rained in several places. One room's bedding closest to the window was completely wet with rain. The house definitely needs some TLC. Despite that, we still had a great time and the house definitely has potential, especially since it offers direct access to the beach.

Umzumbe Beach House 's response

Thank you for the review, Yvonne. I can imagine the weather was frustrating. Apologies for the delay in getting into your rooms. The housekeeper had a family emergency and only got to the house late. I asked the housekeeper about the wet bedding and she said the window was left a little open and must have rained in.

We look forward to having you stay again sometime.

Regards,
Umzumbe Beach house

Die verblyf het 100% in ons saam kook, stoepkuiers, swem, hengel en veiligheidsbehoeftes voorsien!

Die huis benodig 'n bietjie instandhouding. Die 2 stoofplate slegs lou. 'n Badkamerdeur wat vas sit ens., maar die huishulp het ons verseker die huiseienaar beplan om later vanjaar opknappingswerk te doen. Die paadjie af strand toe kan gerus ook meer trappies kry. Aan die positiewe kant - ons familie is "foodies" en het ons gate geniet in die ruim kombuis en die heerlike stoep reg op die see!

The accommodation met 100% of our cooking together, porch swings, swimming, fishing and safety needs!

The house needs some maintenance. The 2 hotplates only lukewarm. A stuck bathroom door etc., but the housekeeper assured us the homeowner planned to do renovations later this year. The path down to the beach can also have more steps. On the positive side - our family are "foodies" and enjoyed our holes in the spacious kitchen and the lovely veranda right on the sea!

The place was one of my best experiences yet.

The venue was one of the best I've been too. Friends just suggested perhaps adding in a swimming pool, but in all, a great place. And also maybe if the bush in front can be cut back a bit to see more of the beautiful ocean view, that would make it even more special. Thank you all very much!!!
