Die stilte onder Tafelberg!

Pragtige huis toegerus met alles wat jy nodig het, heerlike swembad met eekhoringkies wat elke nou en dan kom water drink! Rustige en stille omgewing al is die winkels net om die draai!

The silence under Table Mountain!

Beautiful house equipped with everything you need, lovely swimming pool with squirrels that come to drink water every now and then! Peaceful and quiet environment even though the shops are just around the corner!

Convenient, comfortable and safe.

Peter was a superb host. Excellent response time to any question and or query. My family and I enjoyed staying in his home. All amenities advertised were available and working. We had wifi even with load shedding. The location is very convenient, we were able to walk to the mall. Thank you Peter for a lovely stay.

Ons het ongelooflik tuis gevoel en ons kuier daar vreeslik baie geniet.

Ons was relatief naby aan meeste plekke waar ons graag wou wees en kuier. Die huis is baie netjies en goed toegerus. En die area is ook veilig, met voertuig agter 'n hek wat kan sluit.

A spacious and well-equipped unit.

A clean and spacious two-bedroom home with a large bathroom and outdoor braai area. We had everything we needed including a gas cooker, which assisted during load shedding. Coming from a smaller town, we found Claremont to be a bit frenzied, but the suburb lies close to Rondebosch and UCT and was very conveniently located for our purposes.

Disappointing and difficult stay.

The establishment is a house that has been opened for holiday stays. As such it is well used with many fixtures and fittings outdated, used and requiring upgrading. Access to the property was awkward as the electric gate did not work which meant manual operating onto a busy road. This was difficult and unsafe especially at night. The constant load shedding meant that i had to connect and disconnect the alarm system, an added burden to me as a customer. While the WiFi worked there was no signal in the bedrooms. This was a hindrance especially during load shedding as there was no back up inverter or power source. The owner said that he would come by but did not during my stay. Parking was exposed as the owners large boat took up all the space under the carport.

Dear Mustak. Thanks again for staying.
Yes, my place is a self catering holiday home as advertised. Even though it is well used, all fixtures and fittings are in good working condition and as advertised in my listing.
As I mentioned to you during your stay, the issues with the alarm system and gate are caused by the recent spike in country wide load shedding which are unfortunately out of my control. I was in regular/daily contact with you during your stay via Whatsapp sharing daily load shedding schedules etc. with you however, we never once discussed/ agreed the need to meet up during your stay. My place doesn't advertise having a back up power inverter. I also do not advertise undercover parking, instead I offer secure off street parking.
Once again, apologies for the inconvenience that you experienced due to our nation-wide power cuts.
All the best! Peter.

Don't look any further.

The house is as good as it looks on the pictures, very clean and has a homey feel to it. It would be great for solo travelers, families, partners or a group of friends looking for a getaway. Peter is a great host, we got a bottle of wine and other goodies to start you off at a self catering stay. I commend him on his willingness to assist even on the dumbest things. I would definitely recommend his place.

The treatment we received from Peter left a bitter taste in our mouths and we are not to return.

Check in time at Suburban Oasis is 14:00 which is fairly standard. Peter made sure to remind me that indeed check in time is strictly at 14:00. There was no room whatsoever for flexibility or exceptions. This was a little disturbing. I arrived at the guesthouse at 13:45 and Peter asked me to look at my time, clearly unhappy I didn't arrive at 14:00. For goodness sake, I was just 15 mins early. Nonetheless, I asked him if I should wait outside and only then did he open up for me. The place is OK overall. It doesn't look as spacious as it does in the pictures. In fact, the bedrooms are tiny. There is hardly any room to walk around. The geyser must be the smallest on the market. It certainly isn't big enough for the four people the place is meant to accommodate. Only 2 people could take quick hot showers. Thereafter, the water gets cold. Unfortunately, the rooms were also cold. When I raised this with Peter, he was quick to tell me that no one else has complained about that. As someone in this kind of industry he ought to know that we are all different. He told me about an extra duvet in the bedroom cupboard. I had a look at the duvet. Not only was it literally thrown at the bottom of the cupboard without being folded, it was dirty, had stains on it and smelled bad. I made Peter aware of this. He brought a fleece blanket which wasn't sufficient, but we decided to let it be. There is a fireplace in the living room which helped to keep the living room warm. On the day we left, Peter was extremely pushy. He sent me numerous messages telling us we need to leave at exactly 10:00 even telling me our bags should already be outside before then. He then mentioned that other guests were coming on the day we were leaving. There is nothing untoward about that at all however what I found strange is that he mentioned the guests were coming in before 14:00. I really wasn't offered the same courtesy. When we arrived, he was the one who had cleaned the place, but for these new guests, Peter had a arranged for a cleaning lady to come in and clean the place. Whoever these guests were, they were clearly far more important than us. Even after we had left Peter kept calling and texting to ensure we had left. It was a nasty goodbye indeed. We are not to return.

Dear Tiisetso,

My check in and check out times are clearly mentioned in my listing and are to be respected. Early check-in and late check-outs are only possible by prior arrangement and then only when I have no guests leaving or arriving the same day that you are arriving or leaving. All off my other local and overseas guests have honoured and respected this without question or complaint.

After you confirmed your reservation you contacted me pleading me to let you bring an additional 5th person even though you knew that my place only has 2 double beds and is best suited for 4 guests which I explained to you, however, you where happy with this and the prospect of one of your group sleeping on the couch.

Prior to your arrival I reminded you that I had people checking out on the morning of your arrival at 10 am and we need time clean the place before your check in at 2 pm however you ignored my messages ignored and decided to arrive(20mins) early and I had no choice but to let you check in early. The geyser is big enough for 4 people to take showers, not to languish in for extended periods and there were 5 of you. There are extra fleece/ blankets in the unit, an indoor fireplace and a heater...which have been sufficient for all of my guests prior to your stay. Nevertheless, I still came and dropped off an extra double thick fleece for you that evening.

I messaged you the evening before your departure to remind you of your check out time at 10 am the following morning as I had new guests arriving at 2 pm that day, however, you chose not to acknowledge or respond to my message. The following morning I tried messaging you again in this regard to no avail. I then tried calling you and you chose not to take my calls. Eventually, just before 10am, you messaged me requesting to leave all of your luggage at my place until 3:30 pm. I reminded you that I had guests arriving at 2 pm that it would not be possible to leave all of your luggage at my cottage. This clearly upset you and you kept on trying to get me to change my mind and to find alternatives which were not possible at such short/ last minute notice.

I'm sorry that you have taken this all so personally when clearly it is not as I run a business and we all have rules to follow and adhere to or we run the risk of inconveniencing the next guests. As mentioned, I have no problem with flexibly of check-in and check-out times when the situation allows for this. I hope that you enjoyed your time here in Cape Town and wish you well!
