Dit was 'n aangename verblyf met 'n pragtige uitsig!

Die ontvangs en personeel was baie aangenaam, vriendelik en behulpsaam. Die kamers was netjies en skoon, die uitsig absoluut fantasties. Algemene oorsig, dit was rustig en ontspannend. Sal definitief weer by Blue Marlin bespreek.

Disappointing.

Expected better. Further from the beach than expected. Didn't feel safe walking from hotel to beach.

Heerlike bederf en rustigheid.

Die geriewe van die hotel het aan al ons behoeftes voldoen. Ons het heerlik gerus. Dis die ideale verblyf wat alles bied wat 'n vakansieganger sal wil hê. Ons weer was nie fantasties nie, maar ons het so lekker gekuier dat ons nie eers die hotel verlaat het nie.

Delicious pampering and tranquility.

The facilities of the hotel met all our needs. We had a wonderful rest. It's the ideal accommodation that offers everything a holidaymaker would want. Our weather wasn't great, but we had such a good time that we didn't even leave the hotel.

Het dit baie geniet en sal beslis weer gaan.

Die personeel was altyd vriendelik. Al het ek hulle mal gehad oor my rekening was dit nogsteeds baie professioneel uitgesorteer. Ek beveel beslis die Blue Marlin aan vir iemand wat 'n baie rustige vakansie nodig het!

Really enjoyed it and will definitely go again.

The staff was always friendly. Even though I had them mad about my bill it was still sorted out very professionally. I definitely recommend the Blue Marlin to someone who needs a very peaceful vacation!

Fantasties.

Ons het die diens, vermaak, verblyf, gasvryheid, kos en sommer alles uiters geniet. Ek sal Blue Marlin elke jaar besoek met ons seevakansie. Strand binne loopafstand, heerlike vermaak vir oud en jonk by die hotel, al die geriewe is skoon en netjies, vriendelike diens en die kos is heerlik. Dit alles teen bekostigbare tariewe. Dankie Hilda vir die heerlike verblyf en glimlag.

Fantastic.

We thoroughly enjoyed the service, entertainment, accommodation, hospitality, food and everything. I will visit Blue Marlin every year with our sea vacation. Beach within walking distance, great entertainment for young and old at the hotel, all the facilities are clean and tidy, friendly service and the food is delicious. All this at affordable rates. Thank you Hilda for the lovely stay and smile.

Lees julle boek voor by ontvangs.

In die badkamers kon hulle regtig beter beplanning gedoen het aan die stort-gedeelte! Die hele badkamer oorspoel as jy die stort te groot oop maak! En tweedens, die yskas wat bly afgaan as jy uit die kamer gaan! Die lampies langs die bed werk nie. Die dakwaaier maak kouer as die lugversorging. Ons het 2 keer kamerdiens aangevra en daag hulle met die verkeerde goed by die kamer aan. Die vrou van die kamerdiens verstaan mens nie eers as jy vra vir ekstra koffie nie. Sy bring 'n teelepel in plaas van koffie! Parkeerplek is ook 'n probleem gewees. As die hotel besig is oor Desember-maande kan hulle regtig meer sambrele en gemakstoele buite by die swembad area sit. As mens bietjie laat slaap, wat mens graag wil doen as jy op vakansie is, kan jy vergeet om plek te kry by swembad-area. Ontbyt was fantasties. Met bespreking van jou vakansie oor Desember kan iemand jou regtig vra of mens oor Kersdag daar wil eet of nie? Nou is jy Kersdag daar en verwag 'n lekker ete, dan word dit vir jou gesê dis vol bespreek! Regtig! Dis pateties. Die personeel by ontvangs kan ook maar leer om mens beter te verwelkom. 'n Glimlag kan waardeer word. Ek dink regtig julle hotel kan 'n paar ding leer by Pretoria se hotelle. En sekere mense wil ook graag 'n middagslapie geniet, maar dan gaan daai DJ by die swembad so hard tekere. Sekerlik kan hy dit na 3 doen en nie tussen 12 en 14:00 nie. Dis net my opinie.

Read your book at reception.

In the bathrooms, they really could have done better planning on the shower part! The whole bathroom is flooded if you open the shower too big! And secondly, the fridge that keeps turning off when you leave the room! The lamps next to the bed do not work. The roof fan is colder than the air conditioning. We requested room service 2 times and they show up at the room with the wrong stuff. The woman from the room service doesn't even understand when you ask for extra coffee. She brings a teaspoon instead of coffee! Parking has also been a problem. If the hotel is busy over December months they could really put more umbrellas and lounge chairs outside at the pool area. If you sleep a little late, which you like to do when you are on vacation, you can forget to get a seat at the pool area. Breakfast was fantastic. When booking your holiday in December, can someone really ask you if you want to eat there on Christmas Day or not? Now you're there on Christmas Day expecting a nice meal, then you're told it's fully booked! Really! It's pathetic. The staff at reception could also learn to welcome people better. A smile is appreciated. I really think your hotel could learn a few things from Pretoria's hotels. And certain people would also like to enjoy a nap, but then that DJ at the pool starts playing so loud. Surely he can do it after 3 and not between 12 and 2pm. That's just my opinion.

Baie gerieflik!

Die hotel is amper klaar oorgedoen. Ons was in 'n splinternuwe kamer vir rolstoele, aangesien ek in een is. Die hotel is baie gerieflik en is ook baie toeganklik vir iemand op 'n rolstoel - selfs 'n spesiale rolstoel-hysbak is ingesit. Die grasperk egter baie ongelyk vir rolstoele en soortgelyk en swembad self is nie haalbaar nie weens trappe. Personeel is ongelooflik vriendelik en hulpvaardig. Etes is uit die boonste rakke en goeie vermaak vir gesin en kinders. Ook tuis gevoel as Afrikaanse gesin. Dit was 'n besonderse ervaring om hier oor te bly en ons doen dit graag weer.

Very convenient!

The hotel has almost been redone. We were in a brand new wheelchair accessible room as I am in one. The hotel is very comfortable and is also very accessible for someone in a wheelchair - even a special wheelchair lift has been installed. However, the lawn is very uneven for wheelchairs and the like and the pool itself is not accessible due to stairs. Staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. Meals are top notch and good entertainment for family and children. Also felt at home as an African family. It was a special experience to stay here and we would love to do it again.
