Uitstekend. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel.

Ons het lekker gekuier en ook lekker gaan stap. Die huis is ten volle toegerus en is baie netjies en gemaklik. Daar is genoeg slaapplek vir 10 mense. Ons was net 6. Parkering was ook genoeg en onderdak. Die huis is verskriklik mooi en duursaam afgewerk. Sal definitief aanbeveel. Willie en Sandra is ook baie vriendelik en het selfs agterna gehoor of alles reg is.

Outstanding. Would definitely recommend it.

We had a good time and also went for a walk. The house is fully equipped and is very neat and comfortable. There is enough sleeping space for 10 people. There were only 6 of us. Parking was also ample and covered. The house is incredibly beautiful and durable. Will definitely recommend. Willie and Sandra are also very friendly and even asked afterwards if everything was OK.

Uitstekend geleë! Pragtige plek en baie volledig toegerus.

Ons is 'n familie met baie kinders en elkeen wat sy eie ruimte soek. Hierdie pragtige blyplek het aan almal se behoeftes voldoen, en is wonderlike toegerus vir familietyd. Lekker groot en mooi slaapkamers en niemand trap op mekaar se tone nie. Genoeg kuierareas sodat grootmense en kinders in verskillende plekke kan sit en kuier. Die uitsig en die ligging is onverbeterlik! Baie aangename mense en so behulpsaam. Ons sal beslis weer gaan!

Excellent location! Beautiful place and very fully equipped.

We are a family with many children and everyone looking for their own space. This beautiful abode has met everyone's needs, and is wonderfully equipped for family time. Nice big and beautiful bedrooms and nobody steps on each other's toes. Enough visiting areas so that adults and children can sit and visit in different places. The view and the location are unbeatable! Very pleasant people and so helpful. We will definitely go again!

Home is very well appointed - everything one could wish for and a fantastic, peaceful setting. Bonus: saw a pod of 40+ whales!

Die huis is nie ideaal vir ‘n winterwegbreek nie.

Mermaid Castle is nie goed toegerus vir ‘n winterwegbreek nie. Daar is ‘n lieflike kaggel in die sitkamer, maar dit mag nie gebruik word nie. Die braaiplek is baie klein. Onthou om jou eie skoonmaakmiddels (lappies, sponsies, afdroogdoeke, swartsakke, opwasmiddel, ens) saam te neem. Dit word nie voorsien nie. Die hoofslaapkamer het nie ‘n en suite-badkamer nie. Die badkamer is binne-in die kamer. Daar is geen afskorting rondom die toilet nie. Met ander woorde jy het geen privaatheid as jy toilet toe moet gaan nie. Dis baie vreemd. Nie baie romanties nie. Ons het maar liewer die gastetoilet onder gebruik. Die ligging van Mermaid Castle is wel fantasties.

The house is not ideal for a winter break.

Mermaid Castle is not well equipped for a winter break. There is a lovely fireplace in the living room, but it may not be used. The braai place is very small. Remember to bring your own cleaning materials (rags, sponges, drying cloths, black bags, washing-up liquid, etc.). It is not provided. The main bedroom does not have an en-suite bathroom. The bathroom is inside the room. There is no partition around the toilet. In other words you have no privacy when you have to go to the toilet. It's very strange. Not very romantic. We preferred to use the guest toilet downstairs. The location of Mermaid Castle is indeed fantastic.

Great value, space, area, classy place with great amenities to keep you smiling and occupied.

We spent time in Jacobs Bay / Jacobsbaai and wow, did it bring smiles to our faces. They have everything you need, large sleeping areas, large open plan kitchen with pantry. All the standard appliances are available, even hair driers. Mermaid Castle has WiFi, DStv, a pool table and a great braai area that is very private. The best room in the house is the Loft room that overlooks the bay side and waking up to the sound of the ocean was perfect. Would recommend this house to anyone. Oh, and the garden is brilliant and leads to great walking paths. It is truly a hidden gem.

'n Feë-Vakansie

Mermaid Castle is iewers tussen 'n Weskus-poskaart en 'n Disney-verhaal. Dis nie 'n strandhuis nie, dis 'n wegbreek-kasteel. Die dekor is uniek en prettig. Die kamers is goed toegerus (met haardroërs en handdoekverwarmers in elke badkamer om die sprokieprinsesse gelukkig te hou). Die braai-area is ruim genoeg vir die konings om te braai terwyl die kabouters mekaar om en om die tafel jaag ... en die skottelgoedwasser is daar om seker te maak dat niemand soos Aspoestertjie hoef te staan en skrop nie! Daar is genoeg wegbreekhoekies in die huis en tuin om 'n rustige koppie koffie te geniet, of jy kan 'n sprokies-oomblik deel terwyl jy langs die kus stap ... en die uitsig van die stoep af wanneer die son sak is so naby aan perfek as enige "happily ever after". Gasvrou Sandra is die goeie feë. Sy het van dag een af informasie gestuur oor die huis en Jacobsbaai. Haar entoesiasme en behulpsaamheid het ons laat tuis voel (selfs nog voordat ons ingeboek het). Pak jou tiara en jou plakkies ... jou feë-vakansie wag in Jacobsbaai.

A fairytale holiday.

Mermaid Castle is somewhere between a West Coast postcard and a Disney story. It isn't a beach house, it is a getaway castle. The decor is unique and fun. The rooms are well equipped (hairdryers and towel warmers in every bathroom to keep the fairytale princesses happy). The braai area is big enough for kings while the kids chase one another around the table ... and the dishwasher ensures that no one needs to scrub and wash like Cinderella! There are enough quiet corners in the house and garden too enjoy as quiet cup of coffee, or you can walk on the beach in a fairy tale moment ... and enjoy the view from the patio as the sun sets, as close to perfect as any "happily ever after". The host lady is the good fairy. She provided information from day one about the house in Jacobs Bay. Her enthusiasm and helpfulness made us feel at home (even before we checked in). Pack your tiara and your slippers ... a fairytale holiday awaits in Jacobs Bay.

Heerlik, skoon en gemaklike verblyf, alles wat jy benodig!

Ons kuier by Meermin was ongelooflik. Huis is pragtig, netjies en skoon. Wonderlike diens en alles wat jy benodig vir 'n lekker wegbreek. Ons was 10 volwassenes, waarvan 5 jong kinders, en daar was selfs 'n speelkamer om hul op die koue dae besig te hou. Sal dit enige tyd aanbeveel!

Lovely, clean and comfortable accommodation, everything that you need!

Our stay at Meermin was unbelievable. House is beautiful, neat and clean. Wonderful service and everything that you need for a nice getaway. We were 10 adults and 5 young children and there was even a play room to keep them busy on a cold day. Will definitely recommend it.
