Satisfying, if you manage your expectations. Upon arrival we were in a dead end. I drove again because it was hot. Laeticia called and asked me to come back to get the keys because she wanted to drive again. I feel like I'm the client, please move around my arrangements. Not the other way around. On top of that, there was a bit of a mess with the rooms and staff not showing up. So for the first 2 days it was just a mess because we were waiting for a message asking us to move. We felt in the way and unwelcome the whole time. Luckily we still got a room with 3 beds (wife and 2-year-old child with me). And here's where things started to go wrong. We are in the "luxury room" which boasts an aircon, but no one lets you know ahead of time that you have to pay extra for it. I have to ask about it myself on the 2nd day. Maybe mention it in advance and offer the remote when checking in, even if it's at an extra cost. Or at least give a warning if we are not allowed to use the aircon. Then there are 3 beds, but only one glass and cup for coffee. Who should drink now and who should watch? Then one 3-quarter roll of single ply toilet paper at R1550 per night is not sufficient for 3 nights. Sorry, I expected more at that price. I had to buy my own. The cleaner was at least nice enough to take the last single ply and replace it with my own 2-ply. 3 people, 3 beds, but only 2 towels? Which were not replaced once in our 3 days. When checking in you are informed that it is not self-catering. So do not use the kitchen. Only braai and microwave, but no one gave me the option to order meals. Mention it as an option in advance and communicate prices. It was the middle of a heat wave, but we could not use the pool. My son does not want to get in because it is too dirty. When booking I specifically ask that I am looking for a bath for my son. When we got there the plugs were removed due to "water restrictions". Why wasn't I told when I asked? Now we arrive expecting a bath. We couldn't make any alternative arrangements now. Plus there are no more water restrictions in the Cape. Little stupid things like a little hand cream, maybe good, a bottle of water in the fridge on arrival are good that require minimal input cost and effort, but make you feel welcome. I travel a lot for work and stay in a lot of guesthouses. So maybe I'm just more sensitive to such things, more at the price point I expected more. All the little things in isolation are not a problem, but they make you feel unwelcome and uncomfortable when you consider everything together. It detracts from the property itself which is absolutely great. Fantastic house, very tastefully styled and furnished, great neighborhood, everything is sparkling clean (except the pool). All the groundwork is there, but little things did spoil our stay.

Bevredigend, as jy jou verwagtings bestuur. Met aankoms was ons voor dooiemans deur. Ek het weer gery want dit was warm. Laeticia het gebel en vra ek moet terugkom om die sleutels te kom kry want sy wil weer ry. Ek voel ek is die kliënt, beweeg om my reelings asb. Nie anders om nie. Boonop was daar so bietjie deurmekaar spil met die kamers en personeel wat nie opdaag nie. So vir die eerste 2 dae was dit maar deurmekaar omdat ons wag vir 'n boodskap wat vra ons moet skuif. Ons het die heeltyd in die pad gevoel en onwelkom. Gelukkig steeds 'n kamer gekry met 3 beddens (vrou en 2-jarige kind saam my). En hier het goed begin skeefloop. Ons is in die "luxury room" wat pronk met 'n aircon, maar niemand laat weet jou voor die tyd jy moet ekstra betaal vir hom nie. Ek moet self daaroor vra op die 2de dag. Noem dit miskien vooraf en bied die remote aan met inboek, al is dit teen ekstra koste. Of gee ten minste 'n waarskuwing as ons nie die aircon mag gebruik nie. Dan is daar 3 beddens, maar net een glas en koppie vir koffie. Wie moet nou drink en wie kyk? Dan een 3kwart rol single ply toiletpapier teen R1550 per aand is nie voldoende vir 3 aande nie. Sorry, ek het teen daai prys net meer verwag. Ek moes my eie aankoop. Die cleaner was darem gaaf genoeg om die laaste single ply te vat en te vervang met my eie 2-ply. 3 mense, 3 beddens, maar net 2 handdoeke? Wat in ons 3 dae nie een keer vervang was nie. Met inboek word jy in kennis gestel dit is nie self-catering nie. So moenie die kombuis gebruik nie. Slegs braai en mikrogolf, maar niemand het my die opsie gegee om maaltye te bestel nie. Noem dit as 'n opsie vooraf en kommunikeer pryse. Dit was middel in 'n hitte golf, maar ons kon nie die swembad gebruik nie. My seun wil nie inklim nie want dit is te vuil. Met bespreking vra ek pertinent ek soek 'n bad vir my seun. Toe ons daar kom is die proppe weg geneem weens "water beperkings". Hoekom dit nie vir my gesê toe ek navraag doen nie? Nou kom ons aan en verwag 'n bad. Ons kon geen alternatiewe reelings nou meer tref nie. Boonop is daar nie meer water beperkings in die Kaap nie. Klein stupid goedjies soos 'n hande roompie, miskien goed, 'n bottel water in die yskas met aankoms is goed wat minimale inset koste en moeite verg, maar 'n mens laat welkom voel. Ek reis baie vir werk en bly in baie gastehuise. So miskien is ek net meer sensitief vir sulke goed, meer teen die pryspunt het ek meer verwag. Al die klein goed in isolasie is nie 'n probleem nie, maar dit laat mens onwelkom en ongemaklik voel as jy alles saam oorweeg. Dit trek af van die eiendom homself wat absoluut puik is. Fantastiese huis, baie smaakvol gestileer en gemeubileer, great buurt, alles is silwer skoon (behalwe die swembad). Al die grondwerk is daar, maar klein goedjies het afbreek gedoen aan ons verblyf.
