Very clean and comfortable place. Great hosts.

Love the area where the house is located and we felt safe. Wish it could be pet friendly.

Hi Neliswa,

Thank you for the lovely review, really appreciate our guests being happy with what we are able to offer them. For the future, just want to mention that we are actually pet friendly. You arrived with a lovely little pup, From what I can remember, your husband took it back to your daughter who was actually crying for the pup.

Please remember next time, your pet is more than welcome to visit with you.

Best Regards
Nicky de la Mare

Clean room.

The room and welcoming was pleasant. I would have preferred an electric blanket since it was a bit cold.

Very tidy and lovely room equipped with everything you need. A good bed and nice bathroom. The host is there when you need her, I had a great stay!

I am a regular traveller and would rate this place as one of the nicest, best located, and real value of all the places we have stayed. The place was very clean, modern and had everything we needed to feel at home.

Baie vriendelike gasheer en vrou.

Advertensie beweer die volgende: 1. Koffie, tee, suiker, melk en versnapering word voorsien. Moes eie koffie, suiker, melk en tee koop. Het wel gefiltreerde water gekry. 2. Dié was nie as 'n opsie aangebied nie: belasting en ekstras. a) Alle etes is op versoek beskikbaar. b) Ontbyt: R60 per persoon. c) Aandete: Vanaf R75 per persoon. Het wel muskiet repellant gekry, dankbaar. 3. Geen housekeeping Saterdae en Sondae anders as om drommetjie leeg te maak en offer vir skottelgoed, maar nie in 2de naweek, Sondag enigsins diens behalwe swartsak. 4. Onnodige 2 keer herinner om uitstaande balans te betaal en met nog 'n aand oor herinner as ek vroeg vertrek die balans betaal moet word en sleutel in posbus moet gooi. Alhoewel ek nog een aand oorgehad het. Nicky het wel verskoning gevra vir verkeerde datums. 4. Nie flexible om op navraag na 10am laundry mee te help nie, eenvoudig gesê "Washing for today is done already". Wat was goed?. 1. Baie gasvry, aangename mense. 2. Wel R25 per aand af gekry op geadverteerde prys, maar dink dit het dié ekstra's laat verdwyn. 3. Doen moeite om gas gemaklik te laat voel, alhoewel dié gas nie met stryery betrokke raak oor vals advertensie en details nie. 4. Stil en veilig. 5. Pynlik netjies. 6. Very, very low pressure-meganisme verwyder vir beter stort-ervaring. Om by 'n restaurant the kla oor swak diens behels risiko's, selfde met verblyf. Ek is nie dié kla en kerm tipe nie, maar gee wel my opinie na ete/verblyf. All in all, perfekte eennagoorbly-akkommodasie, maar in my opinie nie vir langer nie. Voorstelle?. 1. Waaier/aircon in kamer. 2. Aquadel booklet wat dienste uiteensit. 3. Beter DStv-pakket, dit is die swakste pakket seker beskikbaar, geen sport, net BBC News. 4. Op 'n skaal van 1 tot 10 vir WiFi of selfoon sein = -4! Baie frustrerend. Alhoewel hulle hul persoonlike data geoffer het (ek sal dit nie met goeie gewete kan gebruik nie). 5. Komplimentêre seep, shampoo, koffie etc. Branded Aquadel sal nice touch wees. 6. Offer groter eenheid vir persone wat langer bly, nie offer om te skuif na paar dae. Eenvoudig te veel moeite. 7. Tong in die kies 'shaded parking' sal beslis 'n bonus wees. My persoonlike opinie, met min moeite kan Aquadel 'n top-akkommodasiebestemming wees. Wie weet dalk is dit die volgende keer wat ek kom kuier.

Very friendly host and wife.

Advertisement claims the following: 1. Coffee, tea, sugar, milk and snacks are provided. Had to buy own coffee, sugar, milk and tea. Did get filtered water. 2. These were not offered as an option: taxes and extras. a) All meals are available upon request. b) Breakfast: R60 per person. c) Dinner: From R75 per person. Did get mosquito repellant, thankfully. 3. No housekeeping on Saturdays and Sundays, other than to empty the small bin and offer for dishes, but no service on the 2nd weekend, Sunday at all except black bag. 4. Unnecessary 2 times reminder to pay outstanding balance and with another night to go remind if I leave early the balance must be paid and key put in mailbox. Although I still had one night left. Nicky did apologize for wrong dates. 4. Not flexible to help with laundry after 10am, simply said "Washing for today is done already". What was good?. 1. Very hospitable, pleasant people. 2. Did get R25 per night off advertised price, but think that made those extras disappear. 3. Make an effort to make guest feel comfortable, although this guest does not engage in arguments about false advertising and details. 4. Quiet and safe. 5. Painfully neat. 6. Very, very low pressure mechanism removed for better showering experience. Complaining about poor service at a restaurant involves risks, the same with accommodation. I am not the complaining and whining type, but do give my opinion after the meal/accommodation. All in all, perfect overnight accommodation, but not for longer in my opinion. Suggestions?. 1. Fan/aircon in room. 2. Aquadel booklet detailing services. 3. Better DStv package, probably the worst package available, no sports, just BBC News. 4. On a scale of 1 to 10 for WiFi or cell phone signal = -4! Very frustrating. Although they sacrificed their personal data (I won't be able to use it in good conscience). 5. Complimentary soap, shampoo, coffee etc. Branded Aquadel would be a nice touch. 6. Sacrifice larger unit for persons staying longer, not sacrifice to move after few days. Simply too much effort. 7. Tongue in the shade 'shaded parking' will definitely be a bonus. My personal opinion, with little effort Aquadel can be a top accommodation destination. Who knows, it might be the next time I come to visit.

Like home away from home after a very long drive!

Nicky and Rob are such good hosts - nothing was too much trouble! Waited for us so that we could follow them in to town and Nicky even went to check that there weren't too many steps for my wife to manage at the restaurant we chose! House is situated in a lovely area with easy access to main highways. Would certainly stay here again when we are in PE.

Very friendly couple that made you feel at home. Clean room. Sugguestion would be an extension cord for the kettle to plugged in to. Also DStv is separate from the other room to ensure channel changes not frustrating.
