Nice and quiet place. WiFi connection. There is a television but we could not use it. No instructions.

Lekker rustig maar nie wat 'n mens verwag het nie.

Die onderstaande is wat die advertensie sê van die akkommodasie. It's Practical Holidays offers overnight accommodation in a little cottage located on the owner’s property in Sandbaai, Hermanus. This unit can comfortably accommodate 3 guests and is furnished with a double bed and a single bed, and has an en-suite bathroom fitted with a shower, washbasin, and toilet. The kitchenette is equipped with a fridge, microwave, cutlery, and crockery, as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities. The unit has Wi-Fi but no TV. Ons verblyf by die akkommodasie was glad nie aanvaarbaar nie, want hulle moet dit duidelik stipuleer dat daar geen kookgeriewe of kombuisimplemente is nie. Die paar dae het ons nou baie meer gekos as wat ons op gereken het. Die eienaar was ook nie een keer daar nie en op die laaste aand van ons verblyf wou ons braai en toe breek daar 'n gat in die braai. Hulle was net van hulp deur teëls vir ons te gee om solank daarop te sit. Ons sal dit nie aanbeveel vir enige iemand nie. Hulle moet hulle advertensie baie meer spesifiseer sodat ander vakansiegangers nie in dieselfde gat val as ons nie. Ek hoop regtig dit word met die eienaars opgeneem.

Nice and quiet but not what one expected.

The below is what the advertisement says about the accommodation. It's Practical Holidays offers overnight accommodation in a little cottage located on the owner's property in Sandbaai, Hermanus. This unit can comfortably accommodate 3 guests and is furnished with a double bed and a single bed, and has an en-suite bathroom fitted with a shower, washbasin, and toilet. The kitchenette is equipped with a fridge, microwave, cutlery, and crockery, as well as tea- and coffee-making facilities. The unit has Wi-Fi but no TV. Our stay at the accommodation was not acceptable at all, because they should clearly stipulate that there are no cooking facilities or kitchen implements. The few days now cost us much more than we had expected. The owner was not there even once and on the last night of our stay we wanted to braai and then a hole broke in the braai. They were only helpful by giving us tiles to sit on for the time being. We would not recommend it to anyone. They need to specify their advertisement much more so that other holidaymakers do not fall into the same hole as us. I really hope this is taken up with the owners.

Die fotos van die eenheid sal duidelik wys dat daar geen stoof is nie, daar is wel 'n microwave, sandwich maker, yskas en ketel. Die braaier is ook nie geskik vir dik hout stompe nie, maar wel vir charcoal of briquettes.

Dit daar gelaat.

A place for a short stay!

The host was very friendly, the amenities were sufficient for a one-night stay. It is close to shops and takeaways. Very convenient. The double bed, however, is exceptionally firm and uncomfortable. The pillows were great, and the floors were clean.

Rustig tuis maak jou van God bewus.

Baie gerus, die atmosfeer was baie rustig, goed vir die siel.

Baie slegte ervaring.

Slegste experience nog. Fasiliteit geensins aanvaarbaar. Ruik of vetrek die vorige dag gepleister was.

Very bad experience.

Worst experience yet. Facility by no means acceptable. Smells like the room was plastered the day before.

Uiters pateties. Foto's misleidend.

Het vir 2 aande bespreek, maar kon nie nog 'n aand daar slaap nie. Foto's kom netjies en skoon voor, ongelukkig baie misleidend. Geen yskas, al noem hul net 'n ketel. Waarom boks melk uisit, asook 'n braaiertjie buite met 'n bankie waarop mens nie kan sit nie. Waar bêre jy die oorskietvleis en bykosse? Bed stukkend. Twee tasse pas nie in nie. Een tas moes in kar bly. Papiere lê rond waar kar parkeer word. Stort verstop. Beddegoed ruik nie wel nie. Ventilasie baie swak, wat word gedoen as dit baie warm is? Geen WiFi-kode, asook geen Covid-protokol word gevolg nie.

Extremely pathetic. Photos misleading.

Booked for 2 nights but couldn't sleep another night there. Photos appear neat and clean, unfortunately very misleading. No fridge, even though they only mention a kettle. Why put out cartons of milk, as well as a braaier outside with a bench on which one cannot sit. Where do you store the leftover meat and side dishes? Bed broken. Two suitcases don't fit. One suitcase had to stay in the car. Papers are lying around where the car is parked. Shower clogged. Bedding doesn't smell good. Ventilation very poor, what to do if it is very hot? No WiFi code, as well as no Covid protocol is followed.

Ons verseker dat ons akkommodasie presies is wat dit se op die advertensie. Ons adverteer 'n kamer geskik vir 2 mense met geen yskas en TV nie.

Daar is 'n klein braaier vir die elke nou en dan, wat 'n persoon verkies om te braai, maar ons bied slegs slaapplek aangesien meeste van ons gaste die strand en ander toerisme aantreklikhede geniet in die dorp.

Wi-Fi is beskikbaar op aanvraag en ons sal altyd 'n plan maak om goedjies koud te hou sou dit nodig wees. Ons verskaf 'n koffie hoekie vir die laat nag koffie of vroeg oggend wakker word.

Daar is 'n badkamer met 'n toilet en stort. Daar is ook veilige parkeer area agter 'n hek wat sluit.

Ons is nie 'n 5-ster instansie nie, maar as sy 'n plekkie soek om te slaap na 'n lang dag in die dorp of op die strand, is hierdie beslis 'n opsie. Restaurante en ander winkels is slegs 1.5 km van ons adres.

Pretty good.

The mattress needs attention. Shower's water pools up, runs out very slowly. Space very limited, no space next to the bed.
