Lekker.

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Daar was net nie opvangs vir die TV nie en ek voel dit is effe vals geadverteer. Ons kon glad nie in die area van die swembad gaan nie, nie dat ons wou swem nie, maar wou dit net bekyk. Die gasvrou was baie vriendelik en het dadelik geantwoord en kon vroeër en bietjie later uitklok. Mooi bly.

Nice

We had a very nice stay. There was just no catch for the TV and I feel it was slightly falsely advertised. We couldn't go into the pool area at all, not that we wanted to swim, but just wanted to check it out. The hostess was very friendly and answered immediately and was able to check out earlier and a little later. Have a nice stay.

Hi Doreen
Soos ek verduidelik het, was daar ongelukkig 'n probleem met die DSTV. Dit was buite ons beheer. Hul het intussen die fout reggemaak. Die advertering is egter reg, ons het 'n vol DSTV pakket. Ons het ook nou WiFi vir Netflix, YouTube, etc. Wat die swembad betref, daar was toegang van die eenheid se kant na die swembad. Daar is slegs 'n Geen Toegang bordjie oor die bruggie om privaatheid van ander gaste te beskerm. Jammer oor hierdie misverstande. Groete, Roelien

Hemels! Die groot tuin bied iets besonders vir die natuurliefhebbers, en ook baie sentraal geleë vir see, restaurante en die mall. Ook 'n paradys vir ons 4-pootvriende!

Alles was baie maklik, skoon en gerieflik, vanaf inklok tot uitklok! Die eienaar is ook baie vriendelik, en 'n mens voel sommer tuis! Sal beslis weer kom kuier!

'n Heerlike rustige atmosfeer in 'n lieflike tuin.

Ons sal vir seker weer bespreek by Cycads. Ons kinders het die lieflike tuin en heerlike swembad terdeë geniet. Die huis was netjies en gerieflik. Stapafstand van 'n lekker seekoskafee. Daar is heelwat oop water in die tuin, wat iets is om in gedagte te hou met jong kinders.

We will definitely book with Cycads again. Our children thoroughly enjoyed the lovely garden and lovely swimming pool. The house was neat and comfortable. Walking distance from a nice seafood cafe. There is a lot of open water in the garden, which is something to keep in mind with young children.

Basic and functional.

The blinds on all the rooms let the light in, day and night, so sleep was disturbed and was no chance of a sleep in. The one twin bed was in the open plan area, which left little privacy, which was not disclosed. Only one towel given per guest for a 3 day stay. The jacuzzi is not attached to the cottage, but to the main house, so the pictures are a bit misleading. The crockery and cutlery could be updated. The price and the garden, as well as proximity to Hermanus is its saving grace. With a little bit of attention to detail, it could be a better venue.

Cycads Self-catering 6 's response

I'm so sorry that you did not enjoy your stay. Thanks for everything pointed out. I will definitely have a look at the blinds and crockery/cutlery. The jacuzzi isn't advertised with the unit. Just an extra. The unit is also advertised as a 2-bedroom. The extra sleeper couch in an open area meant more as an extra bed for kids. Thanks for your review. We will do some upgrades. Roelien.

Ons het baie lekker gebly, dankie, en sal weer kom.

Ek sal net aanbeveel dat diefwering voor vensters aangebring word. Ek het glad nie veilig gevoel nie en dit sal ook help om die muwwe reuk minder te maak as jy vensters kan oop los as jy uitgaan. Die toilet is baie na aan die wasbak en mense met lang bene ondervind 'n probleem soos my dogter se vriend. Ek is mal oor die feetjietuin en dankie vir die tuinier wat ons gehelp het toe daar 'n probleem was. Roelien was nie tuis nie maar ek en sy het alles gou uitgesorteer oor die foon aangesien die vorige gaste laat uitgegaan het en die plek toe nie gereed was toe ons moes ingaan nie. Dankie ook vir die skoonmaker wat toe alles vinnig moes skoonmaak en die plek was baie netjies toe ons intrek.

We had a great stay, thank you, and will come again.

I would only recommend installing burglar bars in front of windows. I didn't feel safe at all and it would also help to reduce the musty smell if you could leave windows open when you go out. The toilet is very close to the sink and people with long legs face a problem like my daughter's friend. I love the fairy garden and thanks to the gardener who helped us when there was a problem. Roelin was not at home but she and I quickly sorted everything out over the phone as the previous guests had left late and the place was not ready when we had to enter. Thanks also to the cleaner who then had to clean everything quickly and the place was very tidy when we moved in.

Baie dankie vir die terugvoer. Ons het nog nie diefwering oorweeg nie omdat dit n baie veilige area is en die erf omring is met hoë mure. Ons het in 15 jaar nog nooit enige probleem gehad nie. Maar ons sal dit definitief oorweeg. Dankie. :-)

Dit is 'n wonderlike plek vir 'n vakansiehuis.

Daar is sommige probleme by die huis wat sommige mense nie sal kan oorleef nie, soos spinnekoppe (bobbejaanspinnekop), waterslange naby die swembad en die aand het ons 'n muishond gesien. Dit kan mense se vakansie baie bederf as hulle bang is vir sulke goed.

It's a wonderful location for a holiday home.

There are some problems around the house that will freak some people out like the spiders and watersnakes around the swimming pool. We saw a mongoose the one night. It has the potential to ruin someone's holiday if they're scared of things like that.

Die eenhede is in 'n gewone tuin in dorpsgebied. Daar was een reënspinnekop buite die eenheid en beslis geen slange of muishonde nie.

Perfect weekend.

Everything that we needed was there and we had a lovely peaceful weekend. Just 2 things: couch in living room was not sturdy and we did not sit on it after it gave a few nasty creaks and bath water runs out very quickly - plug needs to be fitted properly, but otherwise superb value for money. Would definitely book there again.

Ek en my vriendinne is heelwat tevrede met Cycads Self-catering 6. Ons het 'n ongelooflike tyd gehad. Die kliëntediens was baie goed. Ek sal definitief die plek aan ander beveel. As ek net een iets kan sê, is dit om in toekoms dalk iemand in te kry om die terrein bietjie op te knap. Andersins is ons heel happy met als. Lekker geslaap, dankie LekkeSlaap.

Comfortable, neat, equipped but there is no Jacuzzi and almost no directions.

Not at all what we expected; there is a small hot pool on the other side of the garden (not a Jacuzzi) and we had no idea where the place was. It's well equipped otherwise; I would only like to see full DStv. Plenty of wood was provided which is good as the porch is open and it was cold.

The sleeping arrangements was nice but the experience on the whole was disappointing.

Being a winter getaway, we booked the accommodation because of the fact that there was a warm pool - to our surprise the water was cold. When asking the owner about the temperature of the pool we were told that the temperature was dependent on the weather - this is false advertising. The TV was so old that we could not see the picture (everything was purple). The DStv was not working and this was only sorted out late the Friday night by the owner's son. The outside light was not working and when I asked the son whether he is able to fix this - I was told that he was unfortunately not a handyman (disappointing). The accommodation accommodates 6 people - the eating table only accommodates for 4 people. Being a 6 sleeper it was very uncomfortable only having 1 bathroom. The pool area is too close to the main house.

Cycads Self-catering 6 's response

I am sorry to hear about your disappointment. However, we did discuss the heated pool before your stay and we did say that it is not a Jacuzzi but a heated pool. The water was not cold. It was just not as hot as a Jacuzzi. It has a heat pump and solar heating and everything is working perfectly. The TV and DStv was working fine before your arrival, I am sorry about that. About the light, you did not inform me about that. I would have sent someone to fix it immediately. On the website is all the photo's, and explanation about the unit, exactly how big it is, so that one can view it before booking. I apologize again, about everything. Everything has already been fixed and the new flat screen LED TV's are on its way.

A lovely home away from home.

An easy to find, serene and tranquil self-catering accommodation, close to all amenities (shops, town, beach, harbour). The accommodation is fully equipped and very tidy. A lovely open and large space for 6 adults. The outside is very spacious to picnic or have meals outside and the swimming pool is suitable for children, as well as the heated pool. I would definitely return with my family and friends.

Rustige luukse oasis naby die see.

Dit is 'n boomryke koel erf, die Jacuzzi is 'n bonus as my tieners nie op die strand was nie was hulle in die Jacuzzi. Die plekkie self het alles wat jy nodig het, die koffie, suiker en heerlike beskuit is 'n bonus. Die sekuriteit is wonderlik. Dit is regtig 'n ontspannende rustige plekkie.

Die verblyf was netjies, in 'n stil area, met alles wat ons nodig gehad het!

Ons het ons verblyf terdeë geniet. Die woonstel is op 'n groot erf, eenkant van die eienaars se huis en heel privaat. Die tuin is pragtig met baie skadubome wat veral lekker sal wees in die somer. Die binnenshuise versiering is modern en smaakvol en die braaistoep perfek. Die DStv-kanale was maar skraps en 'n haardroër sou handig gewees het. Ons sal weer hier kom bly!

The garden is beautiful with many shade trees which will be especially nice in the summer. The interior decoration is modern and tasteful and the barbecue patio perfect. The DStv channels were sparse and a hairdryer would have been handy. We will stay here again!
