Very comfortable, average house, nothing special but suitable for us. Netflix and YouTube made a difference. Stove not in good working order - tripped when using 2 plates.

Doornbaai Home Stay.

Fantastiese ligging. Theresa was baie behulpsaam en vriendelik. Die huis was baie netjies en skoon, met alles wat jy nodig het. Ek sal net aanbeveel dat jy nie troeteldiere saambring nie - die erf is nie omhein nie.

Unpleasant

The caretaker is constantly at the premises. Dont know what she wanted. On the date to leave she arrived before 10 am and started with inspections looking for faults. While people were getting dressed inside the premises she just continued to walk inside the premises and do an inspection.

Sorry to disappoint you but the only reason I come at any time is because my working area is at the back of the house, that is where I operate from. Did I once come and knock on the front door. The answer is no. You told me you were leaving and you gave me the keys. That tells me you are done. Sorry, but you also get a damaged fridge.

We enjoyed it a lot.

Our hostess, Theresa, was attentive but unobtrusive and the accommodation clean and comfortable. The house is fully equipped with everything required for a holiday and has a gas bottle stove for when there is loadshedding. Smart TV with Netflix, Showmax, DSTV etc. The house is one house away from the Doring SAPS so we felt very safe (think Doringbaai is usually a low crime area in any event). The Fryer's Cove winery and Jetty restaurant are within walking distance of the house and there are a few other reasonably priced pubs/restaurants even closer. We really enjoyed having a braai on the stoep while watching the sun set over the sea. This accommodation is very reasonably priced considering what is on offer.

We had a fabulous time.

The sunset was beautiful. Close proximity to the beach and as for self-catering it has most things you need. We enjoyed our time and drove out to explore the vicinity. Close to Strandfontein, Vredendal etc. We even stopped at Papendorp and took a drive to Lutzville. We loved every moment.

Ons het baie lekker gekuier.

Daar was 'n paar foute: Die stoep was nie mooi skoon nie en die braaier was ook nie skoon nie. Daar het sigaret stompies in die braai gelê en op die stoep. Die eienaar het al voor 9 ons gevra om uit te klok en skoon te maak. Dit was bietjie ongerieflik vir ons omdat ons steeds in nagklere was en die uitklok tyd is 10:00. Die slaapkamervenster het nie diefwering nie. Dit is bietjie gevaarlik. Die 1 venster in die eenheid kon ook nie oop maak nie. Dit het veroorsaak dat dit baie warm was in die eenheid. Die klein yskassie was ook nie skoon nie.

We had a great time.

There were a few mistakes: The porch was not very clean and the braai was not clean either. There were cigarette butts lying in the braai and on the stoep. The owner asked us to check out and clean before 9. It was a bit inconvenient for us because we were still in night clothes and the check-out time is 10:00. The bedroom window does not have burglar bars. It's a bit dangerous. The 1 window in the unit also could not open. This caused it to be very hot in the unit. The small fridge was not clean either.
