Great.

This place has a lot of potential. There are just some improvements that need to be done, but otherwise good after all. The staff are very helpful and friendly.

Forgettable.

The beds were comfortable. The air conditioners worked nicely. The place was clean and tidy. The security was not good - we could not lock the doors. Our cars were parked on the street/beachfront. The toilets had no doors! One room had the toilet in full view of the main pathway. It was difficult to close the curtains because they were poorly hung - only one where there should have been two. This ruined our stay because it horrified the elderly ladies in our group. They left early.

Bad.

The room was only cleaned on the day of arrival, never again until check out. There was no door for the bathroom. There was no microwave to warm food.

Rustig. Die personeel was uiters tegemoedkomend t. o. v. ons spesifieke versoeke.

Ons fokus was een nag se oorslaap, voordat ons verder reis. Die fasiliteit het aan ons behoefte voldoen. Die personeel was vriendelik en behulpsaam.

Our focus was one night's sleepover, before traveling further. The facility met our need. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Overall. Nie te sleg. Great ligging. Op die strand. Maar dis ook al. On the Beach.

Daar is gaste wat erg lawaai maak. Ken nie perke nie. Met aankoms later die aand gevind daar is nie seep of toiletpapier nie. Na die kamer die volgende dag se diens was, was daar steeds nie seep of toiletpapier nie.

Overall. Not too bad. Great location. On the beach. But that's all. On the Beach.

There are guests who make a lot of noise. Knows no limits. On arrival later that evening found there was no soap or toilet paper. After the room was washed the next day, there was still no soap or toilet paper.

Baie teleurstellend. Ons kon vir dieselfde geld baie beter gebly het.

Ons kamer het nie twee enkel- of 3/4-beddens saam met hoofbed gehad nie, soos ons bespreking gewys het. Daar was 'n ekstra dubbelbed. Geen deur by die badkamer nie, vir 'n familiekamer is dit totaal onaanvaarbaar. Elke keer as iemand wou stort of die badkamer gebruik, moes almal buite wag. Die een venster se knip was stukkend, wat beteken het ons kon nie die venster behoorlik toemaak nie. Die hou deurnag partytjies met klipharde musiek, drinkery, baie geraas en geskreeu. As hulle ons net vooraf ingelig het, sou dit dalk 'n verskil gemaak het in hoe mens daaroor gevoel het. Ons kon nie die TV aansit om te probeer verdoof nie, want die DStv was van lyn af. Drankbottel en drankpapier in en langs die swembad na hulle kuier wat net so gelos was. Hulle kind se speelgoed, insluitende sagte speelgoed, is volop in die swembad. Die skoonmaakdame is baie vriendelik en doen goeie werk. Die kan gerus by haar leer hoe mens kliente behandel. Die plek is wel oorkant die strand. Mens loop so skuins oor, dan is jy op die strand, maar geen stranduitsig van jou kamer af nie. Die kuierarea by die swembad wat geadverteer word, is in 'n haglike toestand. 'n Deur is uit sy skaniere en rus skuins teen die opening. Die dak en voorpanele kort ernstiglik aandag. Ons wou nie eens daar ingaan nie. Die "braai" is twee klein portable braaitjies wat in 'n slegte toestand is. Ons sal nie weer na die plek toe gaan nie en kan dit ook nie aanbeveel nie.

Very disappointing. We could have stayed much better for the same money.

Our room did not have twin or 3/4 beds with master bed as our booking indicated. There was an extra double bed. No door to the bathroom, for a family room this is totally unacceptable. Every time someone wanted to shower or use the bathroom, everyone had to wait outside. One window's latch was broken, which meant we couldn't close the window properly. They hold all-night parties with loud music, drinking, lots of noise and shouting. If they had just informed us beforehand, it might have made a difference in how one felt about it. We couldn't turn on the TV to try to numb it, because the DStv was off line. Drink bottle and drink paper in and next to the pool after their visit which was just left like that. Their child's toys, including soft toys, are plentiful in the pool. The cleaning lady is very friendly and does a good job. They can easily learn from her how to treat clients. The place is indeed opposite the beach. You walk over diagonally like this, then you are on the beach, but no beach view from your room. The swimming pool area advertised is in a terrible state. A door is off its hinges and resting diagonally against the opening. The roof and front panels are in serious need of attention. We didn't even want to go in there. The "braai" are two small portable braais that are in bad shape. We will not go to the place again nor can we recommend it.

Anxious.

Passing in front of room completely limits privacy. No trash in room. Bathroom no light and switch open bunch of live wires.

Not a good accommodation.

The place is dirty and very uncomfortable. The fridge is leaking, the rooms have no glasses, not even for water. The pool and the garden are untidy and dirty. We moved out from the place the next morning. I don't recommend this accommodation to anyone.
