Fish Hoek is a stunning part of CT and On-the-Rocks offers outstanding accommodation.

The unit is spacious, comfortable and exceptionally clean, and offers a view to die for. The proximity to the beach and restaurants is great. We loved staying here and will most certainly be back.

Prentjiemooi uitsig oor see en berge.

Lorraine wonderlike gasvrou, voel sommer tuis met aankoms. Gee die beste leiding en inligting oor besienswaardige plekke in en rondom Vishoek. Baie lekker gebly.

What an awesome stay.

What a beautiful place to stay - perfect in every sense. With an absolutely spectacular view - one could be forgiven for thinking at times that it is a lakeside cottage. This is actually the kind of place we don't want to tell anyone about - simply because if we do, we will probably never be able to get a reservation there again. The most friendly, helpful and considerate owners - we would like to go there again and again. See you soon.

Wonderlike plekkie. Net reg vir 2 persone.

Perfekte ligging om die Suidelike Skiereiland gedeeltes te verken, en om net te chill, want dit is by die see met die wonderlikste uitsig. Jy sien hoe die locals hulle omgewing geniet en lekker kuier saam met hulle vriende.

Wonderful place. Just right for 2 people.

Perfect location to explore the Southern Peninsula parts, and to just chill as it is by the sea with the most amazing view. You see how the locals enjoy their surroundings and hang out with their friends.

Just what we needed. We immediately fell in love with the place.

Everything was so neat and we had short of nothing. Although we had bad weather, the view was still spectacular and we did not feel like we missed out on exploring the beach at all. My hat off to On-The-Rocks, really idyllic place, great for relaxation. I can't emphasize on the spotlessness of the place enough. Really amazing weekend away for us, wish we had stayed longer though. The place stole my heart.

Heerlike rusplek met fantastiese uitsig!

Baie dankie vir die fantastiese paar dae wat ek by On the Rocks kon spandeer. Die uitsig van die balkon was beslis die hoogtepunt. Lorraine het baie moeite gedoen om my te laat welkom voel, van melk in die yskas en suurlemoene uit die tuin, tot lekker bederfies in 'n glasbakkie en heerlike stortjel in die badkamer. Die boekrak bied 'n verskeidenheid van leesstof so mens sal beslis nie verveeld raak nie. Die koninggrootte bed en lekker sagte kombersies was ook ekstra spesiaal. Baie dankie vir alles!

Great place to rest with a fantastic view!

Thank you very much for the fantastic few days I was able to spend at On the Rocks. The view from the balcony was definitely the highlight. Lorraine went to great lengths to make me feel welcome, from milk in the fridge and lemons from the garden, to nice treats in a glass bowl and delicious shower gel in the bathroom. The bookshelf offers a variety of reading material so one will certainly not get bored. The king-size bed and nice soft blankets were also extra special. Thank you very much for everything!

Fantasties uitsig en woonstel is ideal vir twee mense.

Met ons aankoms by On-the-Rocks het ons dadelik verlief geraak op die woonstel en die pragtige uitsig. Ons is baie vriendelik en professioneel ontvang. Die woonstel was volledig toegerus. Daar was self handdoeke en sambrele vir strand gebruik.

Wou nie huis toe kom nie. Dit sê baie.

Lorraine is awesome, baie dierbaar en hulpvaardig. Baie privaat en stil. Voel prys is bietjie hoog aangesien die plekkie nie elke dag skoongemaak word nie en ook omdat daar nie 'n stoof is nie. As jy wil vakansie hou soos wat ons gedoen het werk dit goed aangesien ons min by die plekkie was. Ek dink net as ander gaan met die idee om hele dag daar te bly en nie baie gaan rondloop en uiteet nie gaan dit bietjie lol met die hotplate wat daar is en klein yskassie wat mens nie baie vleis kan bêre nie.

Didn't want to come home. That says a lot.

Lorraine is awesome, very lovely and helpful. Very private and quiet. Feel the price is a bit high as the place is not cleaned every day and also because there is no stove. If you want to take a vacation like we did, it works well since we were little at the place. I think that if others go with the idea of staying there all day and don't walk around and eat out a lot, it's a bit of fun with the hot plate that's there and a small fridge that you can't store a lot of meat.

Thank you, Sonet. We are pleased you enjoyed your stay. We advertise that we only service weekly. This is because we like to give our guests complete privacy to come and go and get up when they want without being disturbed by staff. Extra freezer space is available in the garage if required.
