Super!

Thank you so much for a most enjoyable 4 days in a very special piece of heaven. It was absolutely awesome. Private and so close to the beach. There were enough areas for everyone to find a space to chill. We swam, fished went for walks, painted, read relaxed, cooked and braaied! What a wonderful home. The attention to detail is greatly appreciated.

Absolutely stunning beach front location.

Absolutely loved this accommodation, in a safe and secure location, with direct beach or tidal pool access. Had everything we needed for a family getaway. Beautifully decorated and spacious.

Reg op die strand naby alles! Heerlik ruim.

Die verblyf is pragtig skoon, dis ruim en gerieflik. Alles wat mens in jou eie huis nodig het is daar beskikbaar. Die winkels en eetplekke is naby en natuurlik die strand net 'n paar tree weg. 'n Heerlike vakansie-blyplek.

Right on the beach close to everything! Wonderfully spacious.

The accommodation is beautifully clean, spacious and comfortable. Everything you need in your own home is available there. The shops and places to eat are close by and of course the beach just a few steps away. A lovely holiday accommodation.

We had a family reunion at 1 Marichel and couldn't ask for better accommodation with small children, right on the beach, lawn to play on and everything you could possibly need in the house. We will definitely be back.

Lovely, beautiful and relaxing!

Lovely place, spacious and equiped with everything you could wish for. Situated above Thompsons Bay, just a few steps down the garden through a secured gate with lifeguards on duty 8-16, perfect for the kids too. Unable to think up 1 minus point.

Lekker groot woonstel!

Die woonstel was lekker groot en vir die groep vriende wat ons was, het dit regtig goed gewerk. Die feit dat daar twee sitareas is binne en dan nog een buite maak dat daar genoeg plek is om te kuier of TV te kyk, boek te sit en lees of net te lê en rustig wees. Die uitsig oor die see is pragtig en mens hoor die heel dag die see se geruis. Ons eenheid het vier parkeerplekke. Ons kon ook gebruik maak van die opvoustandstoele in die motorhuis. Enigste probleem wat ons ondervind het was dat die krag aan die eenkant van die woonstel maklik uitgesny het as al die lugversorgers aan was; hulle was blykbaar besig om daarna te kyk.

Nice big apartment!

The apartment was nice and big and for the group of friends we were it worked really well. The fact that there are two sitting areas inside and then another outside means that there is enough space to hang out or watch TV, sit down and read a book or just lie down and be quiet. The view over the sea is beautiful and you can hear the sound of the sea all day long. Our unit has four parking spaces. We were also able to use the folding chairs in the garage. Only problem we encountered was that the power on one side of the apartment cut out easily when all the air conditioners were on; they were apparently busy watching it.

Die woonstel is baie skoon, en goed toegerus met goeie kwaliteit toerusting, meubels en kombuisware.

Ons het baie goeie herinneringe van ons verblyf by Marichel. Die woonstel is baie skoon en netjies en ook gerieflik toegerus met net die beste. Die stoepmeubels is 'n wenner en die see is op jou drumpel.

Perfek geleë; uitstekend toegerus; skoon en baie netjies. Dit was 'n heerlike vakansie!

1 Marichel het ons wildste drome oortref. Die eenheid is toegerus met alles wat jy mag nodig hê en nog wat. Die eenheid is ruim en elke kamer het 'n lieflike en suite-badkamer. Die ligging is perfek met die strand skaars 100 m van die stoep. Die veiligheid is uitstekend! Ons sal definitief weer gaan en dié keer langer bly!
