Really awesome.

Our stay was amazing - we were very happy with everything and enjoyed every moment. The flat was clean and had everything we needed. Will truly recommend this to anyone.

I would recommend Floridian, but improvements definitely need to be made.

The amount we paid for the accommodation does not justify the house. Firstly, the air conditioner in the room was not working, apparently it has been out of order for months. The bed we slept on was unbearable - Mattress rock hard with springs that stick into your back. None of the 9 nights did we get a decent night's rest. The gas stove in the kitchen knob was broken, the igniter didn't work, it was a big hassle every time. The gas grill's igniter on the outside didn't work either, it was just such a big struggle with every use. The sink in one of the bathrooms was permanently dripping and splashing water, and under the sink there was also a leak which meant there was permanent water on the bathroom floor. Under the beds were dirty, full of dust and things that were lying around. Cobwebs by the bedside tables. One of the rooms' cupboards could not be unlocked, so those people had to live out of their suitcases for the 10 days we stayed there. For the amount we paid, you expect everything to be in working order and clean.

Eienaars is baie vriendelik en hulpvaardig.

Die eenheid wat ons bespreek het, was bietjie klein, veral as jy langer as 2 dae bly.

Owners are very friendly and helpful.

The unit we booked was a bit small, especially if you are staying longer than 2 days.

Great location, easy walk to the beach with children, close to shops, convenient.

Please put more glasses, champagne flutes, loadshedding lights are out of order, perhaps try those chargeable bulbs. Walls upstairs are made of Zinc sheets, so no privacy at all.

The Floridian 's response

Thank you, Jeanette. We appreciate your constructive criticism and will make sure to provide some Champagne glasses and additional emergency lights. As for the zinc walls, they add to the character of the room, which was previously an office, and provide privacy from the garage.

Huis baie ruim, kuierarea uit die boonste rakke, skoon en netjies. Huis het als wat nodig is.

Baie lekker kuier- en vakansiehuis. Daar is alles. Kyk asb. na tuimeldroër wat nie werk nie. Verder kan ek die huis baie hoogs aanbeveel.

The manager was very accommodating, the unit itself was lovely.

Cleaning staff didn't clean up properly from the previous guests. There was leftovers left in the oven, the smell was delightful.

Plek is hopeloos to klein.

Die beddegoed was glad nie skoon of vars nie, ons het as gesin op die vloer met matrasse geslaap, jy kon ruik die beddegoed was vuil! Daar was nie genoeg toilet papier nie. Geen skoonmaak dienste nie. Eienaar vra niks nie, hoor nie eers. Geen plek om nat was goed op te hang nie. Geen aircon! Plek so beknop en klein, nee wat dis belaglik hoor! Geen skoon handdoeke elke oggend nie. Sorry sal die plek nie eers aan my ergste vyand voorstel nie.

Place is hopelessly too small.

The bedding was not clean or fresh at all, we slept as a family on the floor with mattresses, you could smell the bedding was dirty! There was not enough toilet paper. No cleaning services. Owner doesn't ask anything, doesn't even hear. No place to hang wet laundry stuff. No aircon! Place so cramped and small, no that sounds ridiculous! No clean towels every morning. Sorry wouldn't even suggest the place to my worst enemy.

It was excellent!

The place is very beautiful. It's close to the beach, malls and restaurants. The host gives you privacy and access to everything, we were very free there. We really had a wonderful time there.

Lovely place.

Very nice place. Just a air con would be nice and a new bed is needed in the main room. The lady is very sweet and kind and is there to help with anything you need.
