Amazing beachfront holiday.
The stay was lovely, views were amazing, and close proximity to shops and restaurants. The only negative thing was the ants and cockroaches that need to be looked at. Also, the fridge was a problem; it was leaking the whole stay. I think some of the locks and gates need to be changed as they are rusted. Some chairs on the balcony would have been nice. But overall, the stay was amazing.

This was our first stay at #9 and won't be our last.
We are so happy we found this gem. We are already looking to book for next year. We had it all: beach at our doorstep, shops are close, lovely interior. We were allowed to take our small fur child with prior arrangement.

Good enough, apartment needs maintenance.
Check-in and check-out were easy and convenient. The apartment is spacious, the bathrooms are nicely redone and the location is generally good. Our children really enjoyed the lawn and the beach in front of the apartment and Granny Pool is walking distance from the apartment. Cleaning services were included which was fantastic but the place needs a good spring clean especially as it is a pet friendly apartment. There are a few things that should be highlighted for future visitors. The parking is safe but very tight for large cars. There is also no pre-burning for load shedding with the provision of lamps or candles. It will make a big difference to provide guests with these. It will make the apartment a lot more comfortable if the deck can seal well so you can sit under the canopy when it rains. We had a great time on the lower porch and watched the sea during good weather. The apartment definitely needs maintenance, there is a door that doesn't lock, lamps that don't work, an aircon that doesn't work etc. The freezer also gives problems. Also be aware that the apartment does not have a washing machine and that these are Queen beds, not King.
Goed genoeg, woonstel het instandhouding nodig.
Inklok en uitklok was maklik en gerieflik. Die woonstel is ruim, die badkamers is mooi oorgedoen en die ligging is goed oor die algemeen. Ons kinders het die grasperk en die strandjie voor die woonstel vreeslik geniet en Granny Pool is stap afstand van die woonstel af. Skoonmaak dienste was ingesluit wat fantasties was, maar die plekkie het 'n goeie springclean nodig veral omdat dit 'n troeteldier vriendelike woonstel is. Daar is 'n paar goed wat uitgelig moet word vir toekomstige besoekers. Die parkering is veilig maar baie knap vir groot karre. Daar word ook geen voorbrand gemaak vir beurtkrag met voorsiening van lampies of kerse nie. Dit sal 'n groot verskil maak om gaste met hierdie te voorsien. Dit sal die woonstel tot 'n groot mate gemakliker maak as die deck mooi kan seël sodat jy onder die afdak kan sit as dit reën. Ons het heerlik op die onderste stoepie gekuier en gekyk vir die see tydens goeie weer. Die woonstel het definitief instandhouding nodig, daar is 'n deur wat nie sluit nie, lampies wat nie werk nie, 'n aircon wat nie werk nie ens. Die vrieskas gee ook probleme. Wees ook bewus daarvan dat die woonstel nie 'n wasmasjien het nie en dat dit Queen beddens is, nie King nie.

A wonderful holiday.
We enjoyed it incredibly much. It was beautiful, clean and tidy, with the most beautiful view. We could watch dolphins and whales from the porch. Will definitely book there again.
'n Heerlike vakansie.
Ons het dit ongelooflik baie geniet. Dit was pragtig, skoon en netjies, met die mooiste uitsig. Ons kon van die stoep af dolfyne en walvisse kyk. Sal beslis weer daar bespreek.

The place is beautiful and safe. The only problem that we had was the water in the shower was taking very long to drain.
I also received cleaning services which was excellent.

We have a lovely opportunity in having our whole family together, our kids and pets and we all loved the stay. the unit is not enclosed, we did however make provision with playpen to keep the dogs in and also give them space to move around.
I do however need to state the unit is beautiful and the owners have upgraded the unit with such elegance even on a beach relaxed feel, we still felt spoilt with a comfy bed, beautiful bathroom, etc. There are small things that need attention in the kitchen with a few kitchen-ware, the fridge was a problem, the fridge did not keep items cold and the freezer drawers were damaged and over frozen, it would have also been nicer to have more comfort on both upper and lower patio, with reference to seating and cushions. The bottom air conditioner was not working and with the swelting heat, it was needed. The unit definitely requires Wi-Fi. I also recommend a shade port for the vehicles as they are in the sun all day and are subject to all the weather. There was an issue with cockroaches and unit/units will require fumigation or some sort of pest control, we could not keep anything out, and felt very uncomfortable just working on the kitchen counters without sterilizing everything first, there was also a case of ants in the rooms, again you could not leave anything out and you would find it attacked by ants. I had to purchase doom, sterilizers and diatomaceous earth to help with the issues we encountered, I understand the problem with the dampness in the coastal areas, however, regular maintenance to this issue needs to be tended to so that your visitors don't incur this discomfort. I highly recommend the unit, it's right on the beach we had direct access to the boardwalk, and the setting was quiet with only the washing of the waves. A great experience. It is close to all the shops and restaurants and has very safe surroundings. Stunning unit, with ample space for a well-sized family. Thank you so much.
