Wonderful location. We were welcomed well, but the place was not the cleanest. The unit needs modern furniture and renovation in general. It's dated and old and definitely not clean. There needs to be privacy in the main bedroom to separate the toilet /bathroom.

All furniture clearly visible in pictures and serviceable for this type of unit and if it must be replaced with new furniture tariffs will have to increase. Lots of renovation has been done and is been done on a continuous bases. Main bedroom is en-suite with the entrance to its bathroom on the side when stepping through the door into the room, therefore the bathroom is not visible from inside the room it self, while there is a door to the main bedroom including its en-suite bathroom therefore main bedroom and its bathroom is private with a door.

Alle meubels duidelik sigbaar in foto's en diensbaar vir hierdie tipe eenheid en as dit vervang moet word met nuwe meubeltariewe sal moet verhoog. Baie opknapping is gedoen en word op 'n deurlopende basis gedoen. Hoofslaapkamer is en suite met die ingang na sy badkamer aan die kant wanneer jy deur die deur in die kamer stap, daarom is die badkamer nie sigbaar van binne die kamer self nie, terwyl daar 'n deur na die hoofslaapkamer is, insluitend sy en-suite. suite badkamer dus hoofslaapkamer en sy badkamer is privaat met 'n deur.

Fantastic, comfortable and what I wanted in accommodation. Love the security, fact that the unit is on the parking level, sea view which I wanted. Maybe you can fix the bathtub's hot water faucet and replace the stove.

Fantasties, gemaklik en wat ek wou hê in verblyf. Mal oor die security, feit dat die unit op die parkeervlak is, see-uitsig wat ek wou hê. Julle kan miskien die bad se warmwaterkraan regmaak en die stoof vervang.

Glad you enjoyed it. We were not made aware at all before and even after your booking by other guests, that there is a problem with the tap or the stove and we will therefore look into it.

Bly julle het dit geniet. Ons is glad nie bewusgemaak voor en selfs na jul bespreking deur ander gaste, dat daar 'n probleem met die kraan of die stoof is nie en sal ons dus kyk daarna.

Beautiful ocean view with a quick and safe walking distance to the beach and ocean pool. Everything you need is there, just bring your own towels and hair dryer. DStv is included which made our visit even more impressive. Secure parking as well as burglar bars in front of windows and a sliding door to the porch side, we slept with an open window every night to hear the sea.

Pragtige see-uitsig met 'n vinnige en veilige stapafstand van die strand en see-swembad. Alles is daar wat mens benodig, bring net jou eie handdoeke en haardroër. DStv is ingesluit wat ons kuiertjie nog meer beïndruk het. Veilige parkeerplek sowel as diefwering voor vensters en 'n skuifdeur na die stoep se kant, ons het elke aand met 'n oop venster geslaap om die see te hoor.

Thank you very much for the positive review and I am very happy that you enjoyed your stay. Yes, the bath and swimming towels which are not provided and which must be brought are clearly mentioned on our page and repeated with the quotation as well as the e-mail which is sent after the acceptance of the quotation and deposit payment. Furthermore, due to the type of self-catering accommodation offered, a hairdryer is not included and would be clearly stated as such if it were available. Please come again. Kind regards Cecil.

Baie dankie vir die positiewe resensie en ek is baie bly dat u die verblyf geniet het. Ja, die bad- en swemhanddoeke wat nie voorsien word nie en waarvan eie gebring moet word, word pertinent duidelik op ons blad genoem en herhaal met die kwotasie sowel as die e-pos wat gestuur word na die aanvaarding van die kwotasie en deposito betaling. Verder is agv die tipe selfsorg verblyf wat gebied word, 'n haardroeër nie ingesluit nie en sou dit wel duidelik so vermeld word indien dit sou beskikbaar wees. Kom gerus weer. Vriendelike groete Cecil.

Nice break on the South Coast. The unit unfortunately disappointed. The location is very good, view is excellent. Close (driving distance) to most restaurants, shops and attractions. Walking distance from the beach, but the beach is very dirty. Unit has the basic necessities. Kitchen and crockery were not very clean. The unit is in urgent need of maintenance.

Lekker wegbreek aan die Suidkus. Die eenheid het ongelukkig teleurgestel. Die ligging is baie goed, uitsig is uitstekend. Naby (ryafstand) van meeste restaurante, winkels en besienswaardighede. Loopafstand van die strand, maar die strand is baie vuil. Eenheid het die basiese benodigdhede. Kombuis en breekware was nie baie skoon nie. Die eenheid benodig dringend onderhoud.

Thank you very much for the feedback, Chris. Will take up the kitchen and crockery that you think was not too clean with the responsible person there as basically there has been very little if ever a complaint. Since it is self-catering, some of the previous guests may have put some of the breakables back in the cupboard and they were not picked up by the responsible person there. Furthermore, I would like to know what maintenance is so urgently needed in the unit as maintenance by the sea is an ongoing task and which with Covid was not too easy. Balconies are currently being completely re-waterproofed after thousands of rands have already been spent on them and we had to wait for the rainy season to pass a bit before it was tackled but hopefully now we are finally with the right contractor. Furthermore, safety gates were removed in front of the sliding doors to be completely replaced, but the balcony must be done first before the Treli doors can be fitted exactly. Furthermore, I really don't know what maintenance needs to be done so urgently within the unit. Unfortunately, I can't speak for the beaches except that you might try to bring it to the municipality's attention, but I live in Musina, Limpopo. Greetings Cecil

Baie dankie cir die terugvoer, Chris. Sal die kombuis en breekgoed wat volgens jou nie te skoon was nie opneem met die verantwoordelike persoon daar aangesien dit basies nog bittermin indien ooit 'n klagte was. Aangesien dit selfsorg is kon van die vorige gaste dalk van die breekgoed so terugesit het in die kas en dit nie opgetel is deur die verantwoordelike persoon daar nie. Verder sal ek graag wil verneem wat se onderhoud is so dringend nodig in die eenheid aangesien onderhoud langs die see 'n voortdurende taak is en wat met Covid nie te maklik was nie. Balkonne word tans totaal weer oor waterdig gemaak nadat duisende rande al daaraan spandeer is en ons moes wag vir die reënseisoen om bietjie oor te gaan voor dit aangepak word maar hopelik is ons nou uiteindelik by die regte kontrakteur. Verder is veiligheidshekke afgehaal voor die skuifdeure om totaal vervang te word maar die balkon moet eers gedoen word voordat die Treli-deure presies gepas kan word. Verder weet ek regtig nie wat se ondehoud so dringend binne die eenheid gedoen moet word nie. Vir die strande kan ek ongelukkig nie pa staan nie behalwe dat mens dalk kan probeer om dit op die munisipaliteit se aandag te bring maar ek bly in Musina, Limpopo. Groete Cecil

Thank you very much for the positive review. Improvements such as new security gates and other maintenance will also be undertaken in early 2021. Please come again.

Baie dankie vir die positiewe resensie. Verbeterings soos nuwe veiligheidshekke en ander instandhouding gaan ook vroeg in 2021 aangepak word. Kom gerus weer.

Wonderful, beautiful, fantastic. Wonderful unit, most beautiful view and fantastic people, clean and tidy. Just 2 things: Master bedroom ceiling fan makes terrible noise. Would like to see the living room and master bedroom have bars in front of sliding doors and windows, so that one can sleep with the doors and windows open. I will definitely stay there again and recommend it to others for sure.

Wonderlik, pragtig, fantasties. Wonderlike eenheid, pragtigste uitsig en fantastiese mense, skoon en netjies. Net 2 dingetjies: Hoofslaapkamer-dakfan raas vreeslik. Sou graag wou sien dat die sitkamer en hoofslaapkamer tralies voor skuifdeure en vensters moes hê, sodat 'n mens kan slaap met die deure en vensters oop. Ek sal beslis weer daar tuisgaan en dit ook vir seker aanbeveel vir ander.

Thank you very much for the positive review. Thanks also for reporting the roof fan as no previous guests had brought it to our attention. Improvements such as brand new high quality security gates in front of the sliding doors which also cover the windows at the same time and other maintenance will be undertaken in early 2021. Security gates and burglar bars are still at the entrance to the apartment on the parking area's side and the ones to the balcony on the sea's side will soon be replaced with new ones, as mentioned above. However, waterproofing and new tiling on the balcony and under the sliding doors must be done first, after which the sliding doors will be installed exactly to match. Looking forward to welcoming you again.

Baie dankie vir die positiewe resensie. Dankie ook vir die rapporteer van dakwaaier aagesien geen vorige gaste dit onder ons aandag gebring het nie. Verbeterings soos splinternuwe veiligheidshekke van hoogstaande gehalte voor die skuifdeure wat ook terselftertyd die vensters dek en ander instandhouding gaan vroeg in 2021 aangepak word. Veiligheidshekke en diefwering is wel steeds by die ingang van die woonstel aan die parkeerarea se kant en gaan die na die balkon aan die see se kant spoedig met nuwes vervang word, soos hierbo genoem. Waterdigting en nuwe teels op die balkon en onder die skuifdeure moet egter eers gedoen word waarna die skuifdeure presies nommerpas geinstalleer sal word . Sien uit om u weer te verwelkom.

Nice weather, nice sea view. Furniture and security doors must be replaced. Cleaning before arrival needs attention. The water problem in Margate a problem and the tank will not be able to supply in high season. Sliding safety doors of unit corroded (detached from panels), difficult to open and close. Plekkie will have more appeal with more modern furniture. Place not clean to standard ─ dirty cups, potato peeler and grater still had food on it. Breadcrumbs on surface where toaster stands. Under beds still full of dust.

Lekker weer, mooi see-uitsig. Meubels en veiligheidsdeure moet vervang word. Skoonmaak voor aankoms nodig aandag. Die waterprobleem in Margate 'n probleem en die tank sal in hoogseisoen nie kan voorsien nie. Skuifveiligheidsdeure van eenheid geroes (van die panele los), het dit moeilik oop- en toegemaak. Plekkie sal meer aantrekkingskrag geniet met meer moderne meubels. Plek nie op standaard skoon nie ─ vuil bekers, aartappelskiller en rasper nog kos aan gehad. Broodkrummels op oppervlak waar toaster staan. Onder beddens nog vol stof.

Relax with a wonderful view. Second time staying here during our July holidays. We really enjoyed it and the sea view is always a winner.

Lekker gerus met 'n wonderlike uitsig. Tweede keer wat ons hier kom bly tydens ons Julie-vakansies. Ons het dit baie geniet en die see-uitsig bly altyd 'n wenner.

It's nice to wake up every morning to the sound of the sea. Amazing 180° view from the balcony. The location is perfect with the most beautiful sea view. The unit was nice and clean and nice and spacious as well as safe. We really enjoyed the two weeks and would definitely recommend it.

Is lekker om elke oggend wakker te word met die see se gedruis. Wonderlike 180°-uitsig vanaf die balkon. Die ligging is perfek met die mooiste see-uitsig. Die eenheid was mooi skoon en lekker ruim asook veilig. Ons het die twee weke baie geniet en ons sal dit beslis aanbeveel.

Thank you very much Hendrik, we as owners also think the unit is very special, well located and with a wonderful view although maintenance and upkeep next to the sea remains a challenge. Please come again!

Baie dankie Hendrik, ons as eienaars dink ook die eenheid is baie spesiaal, goed geleë en met 'n wonderlike uitsig al bly onderhoud en instandhouding langs die see 'n uitdaging. Kom gerus weer!

Chesapeake 30 has good ocean view but really needs some maintenance. We enjoyed Chesapeake 30 with the ocean view and private beach out front. The apartment really needs maintenance that justifies the cost, such as: Both bathrooms - toilet paper holders. Fan in living room marked not to be used. Light on porch that is out of order.

Chesapeake 30 het goeie see-uitsig, maar het regtig nodige onderhoud nodig. Ons het Chesapeake 30 geniet met die see-uitsig en privaat strand aan die voorkant. Daar is regtig wel onderhoud nodig aan die woonstel wat die koste regverdig soos onder andere: Altwee badkamers - toiletpapierhouers. Waaier in sitkamer wat gemerk word wat nie gebruik mag word nie. Lig op stoep wat buite werking is.

Dear Sarita, Glad you enjoyed it. However, would like to know what was wrong with the toilet paper holders that were newly installed with the redone bathrooms (2018) so it could possibly be fixed, even though no guests before or after you have complained about it yet? Upon inquiry by me, I further learned that the light on the porch definitely works but if it might not have worked while you were there, it could just be the bulb that blew. It could have been replaced with just one call or message to me basically immediately or maybe you didn't notice the switch behind the curtain and a single call or message could have cleared it up too. Fan in the living room will be replaced as soon as possible as it started to give a problem during December. Regards, Cecil

Beste Sarita, Bly u het dit geniet. Sou egter graag wou weet wat was fout met die toiletpapierhouers wat nuut saam met die oorgedoende badkamers (2018), aangebring is, sodat dit moontlik reggestel kon word, alhoewel nog geen gaste voor u of na u daaroor gekla het nie? Na navraag deur my het ek verder verneem die lig op die stoep werk beslis maar indien dit dalk nie gewerk het terwyl u daar was nie, kon dit net die gloeilamp wees wat geblaas het. Dit kon slegs met een oproep of boodskap na my basies onmiddelik vervang word of dalk het u nie die skakelaar agter die gordyn opgemerk nie en kon ‘n enkele oproep of boodskap dit ook uitgeklaar het. Waaier in die sitkamer gaan so spoedig moontlik vervang word aangesien dit gedurende Desember 'n probleem begin gee het. Groete, Cecil
