Very friendly owner/manager.

Although we basically only stayed for the night, we found the unit at Twinshells very suitable. Neat and tidy with enough space, bedrooms, bathrooms, fully equipped kitchen and braai area. The view was stunning.

Voldoende.

Eenheid 2 is heel voldoende, basies en ruim. Die gasstoof is 'n bonus met loadshedding. Ongelukkig is die eenheid in die middel en TV en gesels van al twee kante was baie hard. Die uitsig is mooi en Mande het vir ons braai buitestoele en 'n lig voorsien. Baie dankie.

Sufficient.

Unit 2 is quite adequate, basic and spacious. The gas stove is a bonus with loadshedding. Unfortunately the unit is in the middle and TV and chat from both sides was very loud. The view is beautiful and Mande provided us with outdoor chairs and a light for our barbecue. Thank you very much.

Good value for money with a great view. However some basic maintenance is required to the unit.

Cold tap in kitchen sink non-functional. Airconditioner in upstairs bedroom not functional. Sliding door in upstairs bedroom not locking. Front door lock: Metal frame into which lock bolt engages with requires longer screws so that it is secured in place. Other guests may expect DStv as the satellite dishes are in place. DStv was important for us though.

Lovely overnight stay, could easily have stayed a whole weekend, but were on our way to Tembe! View magnificent and unit equipped with everything one needs for a relaxed happy stay!

Good location. Secure parking! Friendly host. Personal welcome sign on door. Clean unit! Attention to detail! Rustic yet efficient! Close to center of town, yet totally private with magnificent view of coastal forest and sea! Birders paradise!

Lekker saam met vriende in Mtunzini en omgewing gekuier.

Die duplekseenhede is kompak, maar skoon en netjies. Mandi is 'n goeie bestuurder. Ek maak egter graag 'n paar voorstelle: Twee van die beddens is nie heeltemal op standaard nie (pote val/skuif aanmekaar uit, lê afdraand). Een dubbel- en een enkelbed. Die kombuise is karig toegerus. Daar was nie gewone messe (net steakmesse) in die een woonstel nie, ook nie n braaivleisskottel, ysbakkies, pyrex/opskepbakke, matjies om warm potte/bakke op 'n tafel te sit, wynglase, ens. nie. Van die kombuiskassies se deure het moeilik oop/toegemaak en messegoed-laaie het inmekaar geval. Die twee woonstelle is baie donker en dis moeilik om die gordyne oop te trek as gevolg van te veel drapeersels. Daar is geen bedlampies nie en sommige kamers het ook nie bedkassies nie. 'n Trapreling vir die trappe na die slaapkamers sal ook 'n groot aanwins wees.

Had a great time with friends in Mtunzini and surroundings.

The duplex units are compact, but clean and tidy. Mandi is a good manager. However, I would like to make a few suggestions: Two of the beds are not quite up to standard (legs fall/slide together, lie downhill). One double and one single bed. The kitchens are sparsely equipped. There were no ordinary knives (only steak knives) in the one apartment, nor a barbecue dish, ice trays, pyrex/serving trays, mats to put hot pots/bowls on a table, wine glasses, etc. not. Some of the kitchen cabinets' doors opened/closed with difficulty and cutlery drawers collapsed. The two apartments are very dark and it is difficult to open the curtains due to too many drapes. There are no bedside lamps and some rooms do not have bedside tables either. A stair rail for the stairs to the bedrooms would also be a great asset.

Die verblyf was heel aangenaam en ruim. Die uitsig van balkon is pragtig en beskutte braai-area beskut teen winderige aande. Mandy is verskriklik hulpvaardig en besonderse person. Baie dankie vir al die hengel-advies. Die omgewing en voëllewe is pragtig. Werklik 'n baie aangename ervaring en verblyf.

Waarde vir geld selfsorg.

James het altyd vinnig geantwoord op e-posse. Die verblyf het baie plek binne, skaflike parkering agter 'n afstandbeheerde hek, en 'n goed toegeruste kombuis. Ek is toegang tot braaigeriewe en die swembad aangebied. My kamer het 'n mooi uitsig oor inheemse woude en die see (omtrent 2 km weg) gehad. Die enigste nadeel is die gebrek aan WiFi - dalk nie belangrik vir 'n gewone familiereis nie, maar dit sou nuttig wees vir mense wat vir werk reis.

Value for money self catering.

James always responded quickly to emails. The accommodation has plenty of space inside, decent parking behind a remote-controlled gate, and a well-equipped kitchen. I was offered access to braai facilities and the swimming pool. My room had a nice view of native forests and the sea (about 2 km away). The only downside is the lack of WiFi - maybe not important for a regular family trip, but would be useful for people traveling for work.
