Was ongelooflike tyd by Kennedys Beach Villa.

Die ligging van die gastehuis is perfek. Die geriewe van hoogstaande gehalte en die gasvrou baie vriendelik en behulpsaam. Ons het die 12 nagte daar met ons twee klein seuns baie geniet.

Overpriced and forgettable.

I wish I can tell you this stay was worth it, but unfortunately for what you pay it’s honestly not. Hidden costs to heat up the jacuzzi is ridiculous. The people that run the place are very nice and helpful. For the price you would think it would stand out, but in the end you’ll just regret the cost.

Dearest Marniel, sad that that was your experience. The jacuzzi takes 5 hours to heat up as you know, and if there is no control, guests sometimes leave the jacuzzi on throughout the night. We implemented this ruling for the past 12 years as clearly advertised on all my correspondence and website. I am so sorry that you were disappointed. Kindest regards, Ymile and James.

Asemrowende uitsigte en uitmuntende diens.

Kennedys is 'n ongelooflike mooi plek met 'n uitsig soos min waar ons rustig die walvisse kon dophou! James, ons butler was altyd daar om na elke behoefte om te sien en gasvrou het ons baie tuis laat voel. Dit is 'n spesiale plek wat spesiale ervaringe skep.

Puik.

Kennedy's is fantasties. Mense baie hulpvaardig. Die abnormale weer en hoë reënval, was natuurlik ons grootste teleurstelling en was ons genoodsaak om meer tyd as normaal binne die eenheid deur te bring en het ons klompie klein goed opgemerk. Die puik geriewe en fasiliteite het ernstige instandhouding nodig. Ja, ek het meer verwag van eenheid, maar was nie teleurgesteld nie. Alhoewel die idee van ou dekor puik is, kan 'n meer moderne aanslag dalk help. Ek het wel verwag dat volle ontbyt ingesluit is en nie die R200 koepon per paartjie, wat slegs gedeeltelike betaling is vir 'n middelslag ontbyt.

This review is being shown in its original language.
Translate to English.

Great.

Kennedy's is fantastic. People very helpful. The abnormal weather and high rainfall, was of course our biggest disappointment and we were forced to spend more time than normal inside the unit and we noticed a bunch of small things. The great amenities and facilities need serious maintenance. Yes, I expected more from unity, but was not disappointed. While the idea of old decor is great, a more modern touch might help. I did expect full breakfast to be included and not the R200 coupon per couple, which is only partial payment for a medium breakfast.

Tuiste tussen die bome.

Die bome bied koelte en rustigheid met 'n verskeidenheid voëls wat geselskap bied. Die strand en restaurant is 'n kort entjie se stap en kuswandelpaaie bied toegang tot naburige strande. James is uiters behulpsaam en aandag word aan detail gegee.

Home among the trees.

The trees provide coolness and tranquility with a variety of birds that provide companionship. The beach and restaurant are a short walk away and coastal walks offer access to neighboring beaches. James is extremely helpful and attentive to detail.

Ongelooflike lekker ondervinding.

Pragtige uitsig oor see en rivier vanaf dek. Pragtige skoon kamer met puik badkamer. Puik diens. Ontbyt reg op die strand, wat meer kan mens wil hê? Kennedys is dié plek om te bly in Onrus. Voorwaar 'n wegbreek wat ons nooit sal vergeet nie. Puik! 5 ster! Dankie Ymile dat jul so 'n juweel deel met reisigers!

Hopeloos te duur en verwaarloos.

Die Villa is glad nie wat uitgebeeld word nie. Daar is geen see-uitsig, die tuin is verwaarloos en die braai-area is vuil. Die Villa self is maar gemiddeld met 'n baie klein badkamer. Sou dalk aanvaarbaar wees teen 50% van die tarief.

Hopelessly overpriced and neglected.

The Villa is not at all what is depicted. There is no sea view, the garden is neglected and the braai area is dirty. The Villa itself is only average with a very small bathroom. Might be acceptable at 50% of the rate.

Hi Deon,
Dit is altyd interessant hoe verskillende gaste plekke ervaar. Ek is jammer julle ondervinding was nie soos 95% van ons ander gaste nie, maar dit is vir my van groot belang dat ek altyd intens na resensies soos julle sin kyk en sien waar daar verbetering kan wees. Op my eie webwerf bring ek dit duidelik onder die aandag dat uitsig sleg vanaf balkon area is. Baie jammer dit was julle ondervinding en respekteer julle sienings. Vriendelike groete, Ymile Kennedy
