I would not recommend the house at all!
What a horrible experience! Extremely poor reception and service from the caretaker. The house is dilapidated and lacks basic appliances in the kitchen and porch. There were no napkins or tablecloths. The cleaner only left the house after 5 hours.

Great time with family to celebrate an 80th birthday.
The house is big and everyone was able to hang out over the weekend despite the gale-force wind. Too bad there is nowhere to braai when the wind blows. Love the solar system and gas stove.

It was peaceful and welcoming.
The adults had the rooms upstairs and the teenagers downstairs in the playroom. It has a beautiful view and is warm and peaceful.

Indifferent.
The layout of the house is not clear on lekka sleep. . The lowermost/rear room opening onto the garden's corridor door did not close. Note that this suite is already through. . The room is spacious but there is a TV unit without a TV - no hanging cupboards or chests to put your suitcase on. . The gate car has been roaring ever since we arrived. We couldn't make it out to keep our appointment at the restaurant. Had to wait 30 min. The inverter unit is not working correctly. . The lady who was on standby to help us did not answer her phone. We have to call many -+ 6-10 times before she finally called back. . The late check out rule was not passed on to the cleaning ladies and they treated us with very bad attitudes. (after they spent the Friday lying on the sofas and relaxing in front of the TV when we arrived). Their hot water system is very good and everyone could always get a hot shower. Kitchen was fully equipped. I will definitely not be returning to Crimson Views.

Good day and thank you for your review, your comments are valued and all issues are being attended. Unfortunately due to load shedding, Netflix loses signal occasionally and requires a login, this should have been checked prior to your arrival, our apologies. While we do have a number of pool ques we have replaced the broken que, thank you. Door handles do tend to become lose and require constant tightening, we do attend to this on a weekly basis, apologies for this inconvenience. We hope to have you stay at Crimson Views again.
While our rates work out to be one of the lowest per person rates in the area (rates average R300pppn), we strive to give the best service and facilities!

A weekend accompanied by mixed feelings, which I want to forget as soon as possible!
It was a 1st time for most of the group and they were excited. For me as an organized traveler it was a bitterly inhospitable, cold experience. No welcome from the owners/agent, or reception on arrival, and farewell on departure. It was very inhospitable, and everything in the house was not up to standard. In the kitchen was a garbage can with a horrible smell and downstairs was a room and bathroom with a musty smell. I had to take pictures of what I found wrong, and send them on, but had to pay a breakage fee of R2000, as well as a R1000 cleaning fee (for whom and what I don't know, because I cleaned myself). You send messages to management, but they are responded to days later. The house is dangerous in the sense that it is a double-storey house with stairs, and there is no lighting during loadshedding, and it's pitch black, you can injure yourself badly. No advance warning of that is stated, and I feel that for R15 000 one should at least get value for one's money. No, I'm quite disappointed! I am now waiting for the rest of my R2000 damage to be paid back, and hope it will happen before Christmas.

Dear Mr Pretorius,
Thank you for letting us know about the concerns regarding the poor lighting during load shedding. We have now installed numerous battery backup bulbs throughout the house.
We have also installed high-tech access control equipment in order to allow guests to arrive at their free will without being interrupted or inconvenienced by management/ owners. Most guests preferred this. We apologise that you have found this to be inhospitable for self-catering accommodation.
Kind regards,
Crimson Views

It was very nice with more than enough space for our large group of friends.
If I can only make one suggestion, I would say that there should be either an indoor braai or find a way to close the upper porch with weather blinds or something, just so that you can enjoy the outside when the wind blows very badly or if it is cold, as was the case with us the first night. Furthermore, I think the house could do with repairs and maintenance or upgrades here and there. For example, the games room downstairs is at least in a very poor condition, so that you can hardly use it.

Good day Alexandra, I am rather surprised at your comments on this forum when your previous response directly to my email was that you had enjoyed your stay at Crimson Views and had no complaints at the time. Further to which you did not cause any damages on your 21st birthday held at Crimson Views and we returned your deposit in full. That said we do not encourage 21st birthday parties at Crimson Views as they have tended to result in insurmountable damage costs.
I can only apologise for the ants, which have since been exterminated (this is done on a regular basis through the dry summer months).
As we are self-catering we do not provide salt and pepper (we previously did) as they typically get removed by guests who mistakenly pack these items up with their own goods.

Disappointing.
I would not recommend this trip to anyone. The door handles are broken, the mop is not usable, the fridge was out of order and so was the CD player and the table was broken. Cherry on the cake, the owner expected us to bear the costs for it. Be prepared not to get a deposit back, they will look for reasons not to refund you.
