Hemel in Yzerfontein.

Baie besonderse blyplek met ryke geskiedenis. Baie gerieflik met hope spasie. Toesluit motorhuis met direkte ingang in die kombuis is beslis 'n pluspunt. Kragtige inverter stelsel sodat mens nie eers weet daar is beurtkrag nie. Vorige resensies het genoem van vuil vensters. Ons het gevind dat al die vensters mooi skoon was behalwe vir die wat hoog en onbekombaar is. Mens kan verstaan as dit nie met elke besoek skoon gemaak word nie.

Heaven in Yzerfontein.

Very special place to stay with rich history. Very comfortable with loads of space. Lock up garage with direct entry into the kitchen is definitely a plus. Powerful inverter system so you don't even know there is load shedding. Previous reviews have mentioned dirty windows. We found that all the windows were pretty clean except for the ones that are high and inaccessible. One can understand if it is not cleaned with every visit.

Unhappy.

We booked for 5 nights but only stayed for one night. The house is in need of repairs. The patio is unsafe. The house is not spacious for 10 people to move around in. Very dissatisfied.

Oor die algemeen lekker, maar daar is vir seker goed wat ons kuier versuur het.

Ons het lekker gebly, alhoewel die water en waterdruk 'n groot probleem was. Die waterdruk was min tot geen en elke keer as iemand in die onderste verdieping stort/bad, dan hou die skottelgoedwasmasjien op met was en is daar geen water beskikbaar in die kombuis nie. Dit was vir ons 'n redelike groot probleem aangesien 'n mens graag wil kan stort aan die einde van die dag. Die huis kan nie geadverteer word vir 10 gaste as daar nie eers 2 gaste gemaklik kan stort nie. Verder was een van die onderste kamers vol vlooie en is ons kind die eerste aand vreeslik gebyt deur die vlooie (meer as 20 bytplekke op sy lyfie). Ons moes die hele kamer skuif en spuit met insekdoder, waarna ek seker maklik meer as 100 vlooie van die vloer moes verwyder.

Generally nice, but there are definitely things that soured our visit.

We had a nice stay, although the water and water pressure was a big problem. The water pressure was low to none and every time someone downstairs takes a shower/bath, the dishwasher stops washing and there is no water available in the kitchen. This was quite a big problem for us as one would like to be able to take a shower at the end of the day. The house cannot be advertised for 10 guests if even 2 guests cannot shower comfortably. Furthermore, one of the lower rooms was full of fleas and our child was terribly bitten by the fleas on the first night (more than 20 bites on his body). We had to move and spray the entire room with insecticide, after which I must have easily removed more than 100 fleas from the floor.

Ons is so jammer vir julle ongerief; nie seker of julle die situasie aan die huisbestuurder gekommunikeer het tydens julle verblyf nie, maar ons gaan in elk geval hierdie onmiddellik deurgee aan die eienaar.

Lekkerste Paasnaweek gehad by See-wende Hemel.

Die huis is baie netjies en die uitsig is pragtig oor die see. Baie rustige buurt. Sal definitief weer See-wende Hemel bespreek vir 'n wegbreek.

Had the best Easter weekend at See-wende Hemel.

The house is very neat and the view is beautiful over the sea. Very quiet neighborhood. Will definitely book See-wende Hemel again for a getaway.

Om Yzerfontein te ontdek vanaf See-wende Hemel was die beste ervaring.

Marlo se diens het baie beteken, hy het ons self aanwysings gegee oor 'n ongeluk op die pad daarheen. Die ligging van die huis is werklik uitsonderlik en vir ons, vreemdelinge op Yzerfontein, was die dophou van die see 'n belewenis. Die uitleg van die huis het dit maklik gemaak vir baba's wat moes slaap en huismense wat om die langtafel gekuier het. Wenke: Die inhoud van die breekware-kas was egter teleurstellend met al die getjipte bekers en "ou" huisware. 'n Paar mooi opskepbakke en -houers sal die gaste die idee gee dat die huiseienaar sy gaste vertrou en waardeer. Ook die kussings kan vernuwe word. Sien asb. ook dat die stort in die linkerkantste slaapkamer oneffektief is. Baie dankie. See-wende Hemel sien ons weer.

Discovering Yzerfontein from See-wende Hemel was the best experience.

Marlo's service meant a lot, he himself gave us directions about an accident on the way there. The location of the house is truly exceptional and for us, strangers on Yzerfontein, watching the sea was an experience. The layout of the house made it easy for babies who needed to sleep and family members who visited around the long table. Tips: However, the contents of the crockery cupboard were disappointing with all the chipped mugs and "old" housewares. A few nice serving bowls and containers will give the guests the idea that the homeowner trusts and appreciates his guests. The cushions can also be renewed. Please see also that the shower in the left bedroom is ineffective. Thank you very much. Sea-turning Heaven see us again.

Hemels inderdaad.

Die huis is perfek geleë, loopafstand van die strand af, met die mooiste uitsig in alle rigtings. Die kamers was beautiful, skoon en netjies. Die agterste kamer was nog in wording en het na verf en sterk parafien geruik, maar met die deure toe het dit nie gepla nie. Die leefarea en stoep is fantasties en die leeshoekie perfek.

Heavenly indeed.

The house is perfectly located, walking distance from the beach, with the most beautiful view in all directions. The rooms were beautiful, clean and tidy. The back room was still under construction and smelled of paint and strong paraffin, but with the doors closed it didn't bother. The living area and porch are fantastic and the reading corner perfect.

Nice views and livings areas ─ needs some TLC and a spring clean.

Very nice views and the places is well kitted for a long weekend away. Ample space for a group of 6 to 8. All the basics was clean, but things like windows, braais and even the toilet bin wasn't cleaned. There were all sorts of wipes and things in our one bathroom bin. The inside braai had lots off old hubbly tobacco and an empty beer box with bird droppings. I ended up cleaning the ocean facing windows with a window cleaner I found in the garage. It looked like they just washed the one sliding door and none of the other windows or balcony doors. I felt this was very bad since we needed to pay a cleaning fee for 2 people staying 2 nights. The walls and roof are dirty. Good bit of mould in the bathroom. Some of the window handles and wood looks like you don't want to attempt to open it due to the condition. One window can barely close, so essentially you're sleeping with an open window with no burglar bars anywhere. I think it's a good house for a group that wants a short stay with a bit of space and ocean views - but don't expect a luxury, clean house.

Dear Wehan,
I will notify the owners immediately of the situation and also please receive my apologies for the situation you encountered.
We have changed the cleaning services last week and we are confident that Sharon and her crowd will not allow any situation of this nature to occur going forward! My sincere apologies!
Kind regards,
Karen

Baie aangenaam.

Het net een aand oorgeslaap, en was gepas vir ons doeleindes. 3 Kamers met elke kamer sy eie badkamer. Goeie ingerigte kombuis.

Netjiese, ruim huis met 180°-see-uitsig. Baie geniet.

Die ligging is fantasties. Ons het die verblyf baie geniet. Die ingang na huis is effe ongemaklik steil. Groterige motor of SUV sal sukkel om in motorhuis te parkeer.

Neat, spacious house with 180° sea view. Enjoyed a lot.

The location is fantastic. We enjoyed the stay very much. The entrance to the house is a bit uncomfortably steep. Large car or SUV will struggle to park in garage.

Die uitsig was asemrowend.

Die badkamer in 2de slaapkamer was onbruikbaar. Ek het foto geneem. Die ingang na die huis is vreeslik gevaarlik. Ek het 2 knievervangings gehad en my skoondogter is swanger. Genadiglik het ons nie daar geval nie. Toilet se lig het nie gewerk nie. Sambreel vir buite gebruik was stukkend. Vensters by die see is 'n probleem, maar ek dink nie hierdie huis se vensters is in maande gewas nie.

The view was breathtaking.

The bathroom in the 2nd bedroom was unusable. I took a photo. The entrance to the house is extremely dangerous. I had 2 knee replacements and my daughter-in-law is pregnant. Thank goodness we did not fall there. Toilet's light didn't work. Outdoor umbrella was broken. Windows at sea are a problem, but I don't think this house's windows have been washed in months.

Never found the house.

There was quite a mess. Couldn't get home due to double booking.
