Loved it.

Absolutely loved our time at Westend House. Anja and Ettiene made us feel so welcome. The weather was unfortunately not on our side while there but still loved it. On arrival, it was raining and Anja and Ettiene offered great help. The apartment is beautiful, everything a person needs. Felt like home away from home. Already miss it.

Net 'n uitstekende belewenis.

Heerlik gebly in die pragtige woonstel. Alles wat nodig is en stapafstand van Kleinemonde winkel en strand. Pragtige uitsig uit die kamer en op die dek.

Just an excellent experience.

Had a great stay in the beautiful apartment. Everything you need and walking distance from Kleinemonde shop and beach. Beautiful view from the room and on the deck.

Asemrowende plekkie.

Ons was welkom geheet deur Karin, wat 'n persoonlikheid, sommer tuis gevoel van die begin af. Veiligheid is top prioriteit hier, ons het in die woonstel gebly, en ek mis die stort in die hoof slaapkamer al klaar. Ek kon nog steed my werk doen, en op die strand gaan stap, was lekker om in n plekkie te bly, en daar was niemand naby ons nie, weet nie wie het dit die meeste geniet, die vrou, honde of ek. Navrae wat ek gehad het is vinnig deur Anja en Karin hanteer, en terugvoer was spoedig. Anja in my opinie, julle het n juweel hier. Ons sal volgende keer in die boonste gedeelte bespreek, die uitsig is net asemrowend.

Breathtaking place.

We were welcomed by Karin, what a personality, we felt right at home from the start. Safety is top priority here, we stayed in the apartment, and I really miss the shower in the master bedroom. I could still do my work, and go for a walk on the beach, it was nice to stay in a small place, and there was no one near us, I don't know who enjoyed it the most, the wife, dogs or me. Queries I had were dealt with quickly by Anja and Karin, and feedback was prompt. Anja, in my opinion, you have a gem here. We will book in the upper part next time, the view is just breathtaking.

Active, love nature & need VIP security.

The Westend really worked for my active family, scenic jogs, walks to the beach, the beach itself fishing & canoeing in the river. The house and area have the best sunsets & sunrises. Bird watchers paradise, blue cranes, fish eagles, cape loeries, sunbirds. The house is well appointed with everything you can possibly need. Then if you have found the Kruger gold store at this place, security is superb. We particularly appreciated that we could take our min pins with. They had the best holiday. The hosts, friends of hosts close by and the helpers were so helpful. Highly recommend.

The accommodation is well appointed with a stunning view.

However the cleanliness was of concern.

Mixed feelings.

Magnificent house in a spectacular setting. House was fully equipped and comfortable, with beautiful views. Just a pity about the housekeeping. Upswept floors. Dirty, grimy stove, microwave oven and fridge. Dirty bedding and sand in the one bed. Daddy longlegs in the other bed. Spiderwebs on the chairs. Dirty bath. Dusty windowsills. Gecko droppings everywhere. Filthy dishwashing rags and sponge. Braai area not swept. When the toilet paper ran out we asked for more and were told that only 1 roll per bathroom is provided as it is self-catering, and that we need to buy our own toilet paper. Same with the black refuse bags.

Westend House 's response

Dear Justin,
I am absolutely horrified by your negative experience at Westend House. Thank you very much for bringing this to my attention privately, as I am based in Cape Town, and we have just gone through a change of house management, due to our regular manageress being unavailable due to Covid fears. As you are aware the tenants downstairs have stepped in to look after things for the moment, but clearly this is not working out. I will get a cleaning service to do a spring clean, and find out what our regular cleaner has been up to, and find a better cleaning solution. I do apologise and hope you will give us another chance in the future to meet your expectations. I hope you still managed to enjoy your stay at Westend!

Asemrowende ligging.

Die huis is asemrowend mooi en baie privaat. Ons sal beslis weer 'n draai daar maak. Daar is absoluut alles en nog meer wat jy mag nodig kry. Die skottelgoedwasser is 'n groot seëning! Miskien kan julle dalk net 'n groter TV oorweeg. Dit het die hele naweek gereën en ons het rugby gekyk om 'n heerlike kaggelvuur.

Breathtaking location.

The house is breathtakingly beautiful and very private. We will definitely stay there again. It has absolutely everything and even more than you'll need. The dishwasher was the biggest blessing! Maybe you could just consider a larger TV. It rained the whole weekend and we watched rugby around the lovely fireplace.

Baie lekker, rustig en omring deur die pragtige natuur.

Sal Westend River House aanbeveel by mense wat lief is vir die natuur (plante, voëls en rivier-uitsig). Ideaal vir die buitelug-entoesias of as jy net rustig wil ontspan.

Very nice, peaceful and surrounded by beautiful nature.

Would recommend Westend River House to people who love nature (plants, birds and river view). Ideal for the outdoor enthusiast or if you just want to relax in peace.
