Outside deck area with stunning view of the sunset over the ocean.

Good location to explore the surrounding area. Had the most tasty roosterkoek made by the locals. Unspoilt beach, where we enjoyed a long walk.

Huislik, warm en die mooiste uitsig.

Die uitsig oor die see en die sonsondergang was asemrowend gewees. Die huis is huislik en warm en gee net genoeg ruimte vir 'n gesin. Die diens was baie goed gewees.

Homely, warm and the most beautiful view.

The view of the sea and the sunset was breathtaking. The house is homely and warm and gives just enough space for a family. The service had been very good.

Goed toegeruste "tipiese"'strandhuis.

Gekuier vir 4 dae met 2 kinders, 19 en 12. Tipiese ouer strandhuis: van die dele kort wel 'n bietjie opknap en daar is matte regdeur (selfs in die hoofbadkamer) wat vir seker kan verander. Alles wat nodig is: gemaklike banke vir boeklees, groot oop skuifvensters vir seelug, seeuitsig oor die strand (verkyker) vanaf die reuse balkon. Dalk die onderste woonstel se onderdakparkering beskikbaar stel vir die boonste gaste. Sou aanbeveel om onder en bo saam te bespreek - die onderste eenheid het gas, wat handig sou wees met al die kragonderbrekings - daar is ongelukkig geen kragbystand of songeysers nie wat bietjie uitdagend is met 8 ure per dag sonder krag. Hilda is fantasties - altyd om die draai om te help. Dalk 'n foto van die braai geriewe langs die huis bysit.

Well equipped "typical" beach house.

Visited for 4 days with 2 children, 19 and 12. Typical older beach house: some parts do need a bit of a makeover and there is carpeting throughout (even in the main bathroom) which could definitely change. Everything you need: comfortable sofas for reading books, large open sliding windows for sea air, sea view of the beach (binoculars) from the huge balcony. Maybe make the lower apartment's covered parking available for the upper guests. Would recommend booking downstairs and upstairs together - the lower unit has gas which would be handy with all the power outages - unfortunately there is no power assistance or solar geysers which is a bit challenging with 8 hours a day without power. Hilda is fantastic - always around the corner to help. Maybe add a photo of the braai facilities next to the house.

Gerieflik en gemaklik.

Die huis is baie mooi geleë met 'n mooi uitsig op die see in 'n stil area met 'n baie lekker buite balkon vir kuier om 'n glasie in die aand.

Convenient and comfortable.

The house is very nicely located with a nice view of the sea in a quiet area with a very nice outside balcony for enjoying a drink in the evening.
