Woonstel was goed toegerus en netjies. Lieflike uitsig oor die rivier.

Ons het die Vrydagaand redelik laat in Velddrif aangekom en die gasvrou was baie toegeeflik dat ons laat die aand aangekom het. Die woonstel was baie goed toegerus en netjies. Ons het regtig ons naweek geniet.

Kort aandag.

Ons moes ons vakansie kortknip nadat die dak sodanig gelek het dat dit onveilig geraak het. Die eienaar het ons wel vergoed. Net 'n paar voorstelle om die verblyf aangenamer te maak: koffie/tee/suiker vir ten minste 1 dag tot mens self aankope kan maak, sepies in die badkamers, genoeg betaalkrag wat reeds gelaai is, handleiding om TV/DStv te kan gebruik, spieëls bokant die wasbakke. Die duvet-inner moes ons uithaal aangesien sy vesels alles saamgebondel en knopperig was.

Short attention span.

We had to cut our holiday short after the roof leaked so much that it became unsafe. The owner did compensate us. Just a few suggestions to make the stay more pleasant: coffee/tea/sugar for at least 1 day until you can make your own purchases, soaps in the bathrooms, enough payment power that is already loaded, manual to be able to use TV/DStv, mirrors above the sinks. We had to take out the duvet inner as its fibers were all bunched up and lumpy.

Lekker kuierplek vir 'n gesin. Ek was natuurlik alleen en dis nie lekker nie.

Nr. 17 is uitstekend en smaakvol toegerus. Wat ontbreek? Hangplek (kas). Ek stel voor dat die rakke links van die hoofbadkamer se ingang verang word met 'n kas met dubbel hangplek. Ek bou self kaste, daar is genoeg plek vir 'n kas. Wendy was nie beskikbaar by die nommer wat verskaf is nie. Die wagwoord vir die internet moes ek by die bure kry. Die werking van die TV kan moontlik op 'n inligtingstuk beskikbaar gemaak word. Ouer mense is nie goed met knoppies druk nie (grappie). Die paar opmerkings is in goeder trou en nie om afbrekend te wees nie.

Nice place to visit for a family. Of course I was alone and it's not nice.

No. 17 is excellently and tastefully furnished. What is missing? Hanging space (closet). I suggest replacing the shelves to the left of the master bathroom entrance with a double-hung closet. I build cabinets myself, there is enough space for a cabinet. Wendy was not available at the number provided. I had to get the password for the internet from the neighbours. The operation of the TV can possibly be made available on an information sheet. Older people are not good at pushing buttons (joke). The few comments are in good faith and not to be derogatory.

Pragtig, beste tyd, wens ons kon langer bly.

Pragtig, baie netjiese eenheid, als wat mens kan voor vra en meer, baie goeie ontwerp en gebruik van spasie, modern, pragtige uitsig en die aircon is tog te lekker vir die koue aande. WiFi sou lekker gewees het (omdat die sein nie watwonders is nie) en dalk 'n slim-TV waar mens kan inlog op jou eie DStv of Netflix of net musiek - die pakket by die eenheid het nie populêre sportkanale nie en dus het ons die wedstryd gemis, sou ook graag instruksies wou gehad het vir die koffiemasjien of daarvan wou geweet het vooraf, maar anders as dit was alles fantasties. Die plek in regte lewe is selfs beter as die foto's.

Translate to English.

Beautiful, best time, wish we could have stayed longer.

Beautiful, very neat unit, everything you could ask for and more, very good design and use of space, modern, beautiful view and the aircon is too nice for the cold evenings. WiFi would have been nice (because the signal isn't amazing) and maybe a smart TV where you can log into your own DStv or Netflix or just music - the package at the unit doesn't have popular sports channels and so we have the missed game, also would have liked instructions for the coffee machine or known about it in advance, but other than that everything was fantastic. The place in real life is even better than the pictures.

Hoegenaamd nie geskik vir aankoms tydens beurtkrag. Gerieflik as jy eers in is.

Ongelooflike sonsopkoms vanuit die katel. Kon met die skuifdeur oop slaap, danksy goeie muskietnet. Rustig en stil in die week. Die outomatiese lug verfrisser is 'n probleem, moet dit nie gebruik nie. Kry 'n stiller muurhorlosie- moes batterye uithaak. Pak van die goeters weg, daar is geen werkspasie as 2 mense met skootrekenaars moet krag of werksplek hê nie.

Not at all suitable for arrival during load shedding. Comfortable once you're in.

Incredible sunrise from the cabin. Could sleep with the sliding door open, thanks to good mosquito netting. Peaceful and quiet during the week. The automatic air freshener is a problem, don't use it. Get a quieter wall clock- had to unplug batteries. Pack some of the stuff away, there is no work space if 2 people with laptops need power or work space.

Nie vir bejaardes!

Sal dit nie aanbeveel vir bejaardes nie. Daar is 18 trappe op, dan ’n stukkie gelykte en dan weer 18 trappe af en dan 80 meter tot by die woonstel! Vir ons as bejaardes was dit moeilik om met bagasie op en af by die woonstel uit te kom! Die TV het ook nie gewerk nie, maar die eienaar was baie vriendelik om die aand uit te kom om dit reg te stel! Bedlampies se gloeilampies ook nie gewerk nie!

Not for the elderly!

Would not recommend for the elderly. There are 18 steps up, then a bit of level and then 18 steps down again and then 80 meters to the apartment! For us as elderly people it was difficult to get up and down to the apartment with luggage! The TV didn't work either, but the owner was very kind to come out in the evening to fix it! Bedside lamps' bulbs didn't work either!

Aangenaam, stil en rustig.

Ek sou verkies dat daar 'n ontvangskantoor moet wees. Ook dat die eienaar/bestuurder tydens die verblyf darem verneem of alles goed en wel is. Tweede slaapkamer kort 'n spieël. Beide slaapkamers kort hangers vir klere.

I would prefer there to be a reception office. Also that the owner/manager at least finds out during the stay if everything is fine. Second bedroom lacks a mirror. Both bedrooms lack hangers for clothes.

Relaxing place with great views.

The lack of a reception caused us to wander around until we found the place open and could settle. Perhaps an arrangement with a permanent resident would help. Even though the area seems very safe and peaceful, no clear parking spots are provided for the lower apartments and parking in the open was a bit unsettling.

Very relaxed and wonderful.

The accommodation was very relaxed and very neat. I was very dissatisfied with the parking. We were not allowed to park our vehicle outside our complex. That was a big disappointment as we were not advised initially that there is no parking for your vehicle. We had to park our vehicle away from where we stayed and that made it inconvenient as we had to carry our fishing gear up and down the stairs and we were not able to drive to the rivers edge to fish. We were also not happy leaving all our stuff in the car. Going forward, I think maybe there should be access to the river to park your vehicle right there and fish and also park closer to your unit. Many thanks
