Happy, peaceful and comfortable.

Awesome location, superb views and direct access to the Bek Baai beach. Well equipped and comfortable. A minor request, but would have loved some mirrors in the bedrooms .

We loved our stay. The house is very comfortable, well equipped and very comfortable. The location is superb.

My only criticism would be that the wooden shutters are all old and rotting and so don't all open and close properly. They need to be replaced. The bathrooms are slightly quirky with an unusual layout but were absolutely fine for our stay.

Huge potential but in need of some maintenance.

Due to a lack of maintenance the house has a feeling of being dirty. Hinges are not working properly, had to wash the fridge ourselves because it smelled so badly of fish and the bathroom is the most unpractical one I have ever seen and in serious need of painting.

Waves 's response

Hi Antoinette
Thanks for the feedback, I have to mention that Waves is very popular and because of this, we sometimes have to schedule around guests arriving and departing to complete maintenance at the unit. I do agree however that the house is in the need for some painting to be done, will discuss with the Homeowners and attend to this. We just wish that you had reported the broken hinges and the dirty smelly fridge, we would have sorted this out for you. I hope this does not prevent you to come to Paternoster again in the future, as we look forward having you back again.

Die ligging maak elke opoffering om daar te kom die moeite werd!

Alhoewel die huis baie onderhoud nodig het, veral die badkamers, is die ongelooflike uitsig en nabyheid aan die strand net ongelooflik!

The location makes every sacrifice to get there worth it!

Although the house needs a lot of maintenance, especially the bathrooms, the amazing view and proximity to the beach is just amazing!

Hello Liezel,

Baie dankie vir die terugvoering. Ek stem saam, die huis kort 'n bietjie onderhoud, maar die ligging maak alles die moeite werd. Ons sal defnitief kontak maak met die eienaar sodat daar meer gedoen kan word. Ons sien julle gou weer.

Perfekte ligging.

Waves is die regte plek om te kom ontspan. Die stoep is ideaal vir lekker laatmiddag kuiers. Dit is in 'n rustige buurt met nie baie 'deurlopers' nie.

Perfect location.

Waves is the right place to come and relax. The stoep is ideal for nice late afternoon visits. It is in a quiet neighborhood with not many 'walkers'.

Hello Esmari,

Baie dankie vir die goeie terugvoering vir Waves. Waves is beslis 'n perfekte huis om te kom ontspan en net te luister na die see. Ons is so bly dat julle die tydjie geniet het by Waves.

Wonderlike ligging! Kort net 'n goeie skoonmaak.

Dit is 'n mooi huis met baie potensiaal en 'n pragtige uitsig! Reg op die strand. Die badkamers is nie regtig ideaal nie. Die tweede badkamer is eintlik maar net 'n wasbak en toilet. Ek kan nie dink dat iemand daar wil stort bo-op die wasbak en langs die toilet nie. Alles sal papnat word. Verder is die kosbakke, borde etc. alles op oop rakke in die kombuis en vol stof. Die ornamente, boeke etc. in die huis is ook vol stof en is lanklaas skoongemaak. Dit het erg gereën toe ons daar was en daar is defnintief 'n lek in die kombuis, want baie van die borde het vol water gestaan. Ons het egter elke aand die kaggel geniet en het lekker gebraai. Die ligging is regtig fantasties!

Wonderful location! Just needs a good cleaning.

This is a beautiful house with a lot of potential and a beautiful view! Right on the beach. The bathrooms are not really ideal. The second bathroom is really just a sink and toilet. I can't imagine anyone wanting to shower on top of the sink and next to the toilet. Everything will be soaked. Furthermore, the food bowls, plates etc. everything on open shelves in the kitchen and full of dust. The ornaments, books etc. the house is also full of dust and has not been cleaned for a long time. It was raining heavily when we were there and there is definitely a leak in the kitchen, because many of the plates were full of water. However, we enjoyed the fireplace every night and had a nice barbecue. The location is really fantastic!

Lekker op die see.

Maar die huisie self het bietjie aandag nodig. Hy is verwaarloos en voel vuil. Nodig verf en ordentlike spring clean.

Nice on the sea.

But the cottage itself needs some attention. He is neglected and feels dirty. Needs paint and decent spring clean.

Hi Liana, baie dankie vir jou terugvoering. Baie jammer om te hoor dat dit jou gevoel is oor Waves, dis gewoonlik een van ons mees populere huise teen die strand.
Ons maak onmiddellik werk hiervan en sal dit opneem met housekeeping en ook die eienaar oor moontlike verf van die huis binne en buite. Ons hoop egter nie dit verhoed jul om weer Paternoster toe te kom nie en sien uit na jul volgende besoek.

Fantasties!

Gesin met klein kindertjies plus ouma en oupa! Wat 'n wonderlike vakansie, pragtige ruim huis met die mooiste see-uitsig, reg op die strand. Omdat TV bo in die loft is, was dit nooit gebruik, maar glad nie gemis! Het wel 'n mikrogolf gemis. Fantastiese ligging. Sal weer en weer en weer teruggaan. Ons harte was baie seer om te vertrek.

Fantastic!

Family with small children plus grandma and grandpa! What a wonderful holiday, beautiful spacious house with the most beautiful sea view, right on the beach. Because TV is upstairs in the loft, it was never used, but not missed at all! Did miss a microwave. Fantastic location. Will go back again and again and again. Our hearts were very sore to leave.

Hi Liesel,
Dit was so lekker om julle hier te kon he.
Baie dankie vir die mooi sesensie.
Ons is bly om te hoor julle het die tydperk geniet en ons tel solank die dae af totdat julle weer kom.
Ek het met die eienaar gepraat oor 'n mikrogolfoond en hoop om gou van hulle te hoor.
Ons sien uit na julle volgende vakansie by ons.

Gemaklike woning met ongelooflike seefront.

Veilige huis. Klein swemstrand voor die huis indien jy klein kinders het. Oorgenoeg spasie om vir langer as net 'n naweek te bly en te ontspan.

Comfortable residence with incredible sea frontage.

Safe house. Small swimming beach in front of the house if you have small children. Ample space to stay and relax for longer than just a weekend.

Good location and typical, simple seaside house.

Good location and had all one needs for a weekend retreat - a typical very simple seaside house without the frills but with the character. Shutters/doors swollen and difficult to open/close so property not recommended for aged/not physically strong renters.

Waves 's response

Thanks, Sandy, for the feedback, the shutters were attended to after your departure and working all fine now. We found that during Winter that shutters can be very challenging to open and close. We are, however, glad to hear you enjoyed your stay at Waves and look forward to welcoming you back at another time again.

Die ligging maak die huis baie besonders.

Geen klagtes nie - vir ons wat kinders het sou ons net verkies het dat die TV onder op die grondvloer was en nie op met die steil trappe nie en die eienaars kan gerus belê in 'n microwave - verder was alles na wense.

The location makes the house very special.

No complaints - for those of us who have children, we would have preferred that the TV was downstairs on the ground floor and not up the steep stairs and the owners can feel free to invest in a microwave - otherwise everything was as desired.

Fantastiese uitsig van die see en netjies.

Positiewe punte: Pragtige uitsig van die strand en see. Baie netjies. Goeie braaigeriewe, lekker kaggel. Paternoster Rentals het dadelik iemand gestuur om die gasstoof se gasbottel te vervang - vinnig en effektief. Negatiewe punte: Kort 'n mikrogolf. Veelvuldige ligte buite werking - 'n agent van Paternoster Rentals is in kennis gestel, hulle het nooit die lig bulbs kom vervang nie. Ek het baie druk vanaf 'n agent van Paternoster Rentals ervaar om teen 'n tyd te arriveer wat dit haar pas, ten spyte van die feit dat die webtuiste duidelik spesifiseer dat mens eers teen 13:00 die huisie kan betrek. Ek het dit as uiterse swak diens ervaar.

Fantastic view of the sea and tidy.

Positive points: Beautiful view of the beach and sea. Very neat. Good braai facilities, nice fireplace. Paternoster Rentals immediately sent someone to replace the gas stove's gas cylinder - quickly and effectively. Negative points: Lacks a microwave. Multiple lights out of order - an agent from Paternoster Rentals was notified, they never came to replace the light bulbs. I experienced a lot of pressure from an agent of Paternoster Rentals to arrive at a time that suits her, despite the fact that the website clearly specifies that you can only move into the cottage by 1pm. I experienced this as extremely poor service.

Fantastiese ligging, heerlike kombuis.

Ongelooflike ligging en fantastiese uitsigte. Meer ligte sal waardeer word, veral vir die wat in die leefarea wil gebruik vir lees in die aande. Heerlike atmosfeer en uiters gemaklike beddens.
