Algemeen OK.

Oor die algemeen goed. Het gesukkel met warm water. Mooi see-uitsig maar kort dikker gordyne, almal buite kan insien. Advertensie sê 1 dubbelbed en 2 enkels. Daar was 2 dubbelbeddens.

Generally OK.

Generally good. Had trouble with hot water. Nice sea view but lacks thicker curtains, everyone outside can see in. Advertisement says 1 double bed and 2 singles. There were 2 double beds.

Hi, Hanlie. Daar was wel warm water, en ons het die water drukking probleem dadelik uitgesorteer vir jou. Let ook op asb. dat ons Unit 2 wel adverteer word as 1 koning-grootte en 1 koningin-grootte bed. Ek dink jy verwar dalk ons eenheid 1 met eenheid 2 wat die beddens aanbetref.
Vriendelike Groete

Dit was baie lekker gesellig. Ons het baie goeie diens ontvang. Well done Eric! Ons sal definitief weer gebruik maak van julle plekkie.

Die woonstel is ideaal geleë. En wat uitgestaan het was die netheid van die woonstel. Definitief waarde vir geld.

Nog een vir die boeke.

Die foto's op die website laat jou dink jy is nader aan die see, maar dit is nie nodig nie want die uitsig is nog steeds asemrowend.

Another one for the books.

The photos on the website make you think you are closer to the sea, but it is not necessary because the view is still breathtaking.

Was nice, but the camera there that watches you when you barbecue or swim wasn't my thing, it wasn't like we were being watched, no privacy there. I think it shouldn't be there. Thank you.

Hallo Daniel

Jammer oor die kamera, maar ongelukkig is dit vir sekuriteit doeleindes en help ons baie om ongehoorthede te monitor.
Dit was lekker om julle hier te he, hoop om julle somer gou weer te sien.

Nie heeltemal wat ek verwag het nie, maar ek sal nie so ver gaan om te sê dat die foto's 'n wanvoorstelling is nie.

Die foto's laat die plek beter vertoon as wat dit werklik is. Myns insiens het die plek onderhoud nodig. Klein goedjies soos die voordeur wat met moeite oop- en toegemaak word. Weliswaar van die reën maar. Skoonmaak is afgeskeep. Kakkerlakke in die kaste (derhalwe nie pas ingevlieg nie). Gecko-mis (blykbaar) in die laaie. Dit is beslis nie die oggend voordat ons arriveer het, skoongemaak nie. Die toegangspad is 'n slaggatriller! Bed slordig opgemaak en nuwe beddegoed kan beslis oorweeg word. Gebrek aan relings by die swembad is 'n veiligheidsrisiko vir klein kinders. Buitebeligting by die trappe is myns insiens onvoldoende. Die braai is baie klein en beslis onvoldoende vir 4 mense. Die feit dat eenheid 1 ook die swembad kan deel wat in eenheid 2 se private area is, is 'n potensiële probleem. Eric was deurentyd vriendelik en beskikbaar en ek kon probleme met hom bespreek. Hy het ook vir my parkering vir 'n 2de voertuig verskaf, waarvoor ek baie dankbaar is. Ons wil julle graag weer ondersteun. Neem die bovermelde kwelpunte ter harte asb!

Not quite what I expected, but I wouldn't go so far as to say that the photos are a misrepresentation.

The photos make the place appear better than it really is. In my opinion the place needs maintenance. Little things like the front door that opens and closes with difficulty. Admittedly from the rain. Cleaning is neglected. Cockroaches in the cupboards (therefore not just flown in). Gecko droppings (apparently) in the drawers. It was definitely not cleaned the morning before we arrived. The access road is a pothole thriller! Bed sloppily made and new bedding can definitely be considered. Lack of railings at the pool is a safety risk for small children. Outside lighting at the stairs is insufficient in my opinion. The braai is very small and definitely insufficient for 4 people. The fact that unit 1 can also share the pool which is in unit 2's private area is a potential problem. Eric was always friendly and available and I was able to discuss problems with him. He also provided me with parking for a 2nd vehicle, for which I am very grateful. We would like to support you again. Please take the above-mentioned points of concern to heart!

Goeie dag Albert

Ons is jammer as daar klein foutjies was op die perseel. Ons wil net noem dat ons eenhede beslis skoon gemaak word deur skoonmaak dienste na alle gaste.

Hoop om julle somer gou weer te sien.

Eric was at times very unaccommodating and looked for excuses.

Formal compliant. Well we were promised on the stay WiFi that we hardly got, and the place not so clean on arrival have pics how dirty stove was left so dirty, the kitchen had no Tupperware to use and was not user friendly. Small variety of pots. Cupboards smelt of mould. Owner was very unaccommodating and has now deducted an amount of breakage deposit R 579,00. He is blaming us for an already damaged kitchen cupboard where hinge fell out off. It was only 2 screws that fell out. Blaming us for breaking the swimming pole and net, subsequently not damaged by us. It was found in that condition. This is unacceptable and am expecting management to have this handled and rectified as soon as possible. Notwithstanding the bedding and bedroom cupboards that smelt of mould. We have taken photos of everything upon arrival and hence have evidence that amount deducted is invalid. Pool was always left dirty, full of leaves with creepy not working. This owner is very sly and looking for loop holes and unacceptable.

We here at DolFinView were very accommodating and did not even charge you for all the damages you caused during your stay.
It's really sad that you go to this lengths knowing what you did and after all the proof we have sent to you.
There were two families with us during your stay and non of them were unhappy during their stay. In fact 99.99 % of all our Guests are and were happy with our accommodation.
This is not how we at DolFinView like to treat our guests but you leaving a negative review to hurt us in your wrong doing is just very sad.

It was absolutely beautiful. View was amazing, owner was very friendly. The place is neat and tidy and very safe. I will definitely recommend this place.

My honest opinion about the place is beautiful, neat, safe and very secure. We thoroughly enjoyed staying there and felt very safe and comfortable. It had everything a person needs to enjoy their holiday.
