Fantastic, safe, nice atmosphere, worth it.

We really enjoyed our stay; it was fantastic to be exact. Even under the rough weather conditions, we had a blast. It's a nice atmosphere to relax and do whatever your heart desires, especially if you need some quality time for yourself or for you and your other half. The host is such a lovely lady and does her best to make your stay even more comfortable. She really made things extra special for us just by being herself. We are most definitely going back. xx.

Hello there! Thanks for the lovely review. I did try to make you comfortable as it was one of the worst weekends ever. I would love to welcome you back at any time, and pray that the weather will play along. Kind regards, Carin, Walkabout, and the kitties!

Little gem.

Carin was such a great host. We really enjoyed our time staying here. We walked on the beach and had coffee on the outside patio, enjoying the surrounding mountain and sea views. This is a little gem and worth the visit. Thank you for your hospitality.

Hello Erika! Thanks for the lovely review! I aim to please and host as I would be received elsewhere! It was a pleasure having you here. I hope to see you again soon!

Skoon, netjies en net wat 'n mens nodig het.

Carin het met ons kontak gemaak en mooi verduidelik waar Drop Anchor is, sy het vir ons gewag en baie vriendlik verwelkom. Dit was ons lekkerste agt dae in Gordonsbaai. Dit is naby die Strand en ander plekke. Mens het die mooiste uitsigte vanaf die dek waar jy selfs kan sit en eet of 'n glassie wyn kan drink. Ons sal Drop Anchor vir seker aanbeveel en ons tuiste maak as ons in die Kaap is. Dankie Carin vir jou vriendlikheid. Ek mis elke dag se sonsondergange daar by jou.

Clean, tidy and just what one needs.

Carin contacted us and explained nicely where Drop Anchor was, she waited for us and gave us a very friendly welcome. It was our best eight days in Gordons Bay. It is close to the Beach and other places. One has the most beautiful views from the deck where you can even sit and eat or drink a glass of wine. We will definitely recommend Drop Anchor and make it our home when we are in the Cape. Thank you Carin for your kindness. I miss the sunsets there with you every day.

I would highly recommend this slice of heaven.

Myself and my girlfriend stayed here for 3 days. It was the best time we had in a very long time. The owner is super friendly and welcoming. You are on the beach with amazing 360 views of the mountains. I would highly recommend this slice of heaven. Drop your anchor and make this your home away from home. For us this is now our home away from home.

Drop Anchor 's response

Hi Ruben, what a lovely review! Thanks, and thanks for taking the time to do it. With your camping experience, you utilized the braai facilities to their full potential. That's the way to do it. It was lovely seeing you make breakfast and enjoying it on the deck. Also just chilling at the firepit and lounging on the surfboards at night. This visit really warmed my heart. This is your second home! You are always welcome. Thanks so much for giving attention to the pets. You playing soccer with Walkabout and Angie cuddling with Maggi. Next time, you should make a 'potjie', I have various sizes available. Kind regards, Carin and all the four-footed ones.

Awesome!

Was perfect, had such a fun time. Would recommend two nights as one day is too little time to explore the surrounds.

Drop Anchor 's response

Hi Marco, thanks for taking the time for the review! I'm so happy you enjoyed it. Your braai at the surfboards will be legendary! Do come back anytime, you were excellent guests! Kind regards, Carin.

Very relaxing and peaceful.

Was an awesome stay, especially if you want to take a break from the city rush and do nothing. Not even preparing food. Would recommend you take a tablet or laptop in case of bad weather.

Hi Rojeanne, thanks for taking the time to do the review. Please let me know how I can improve in the areas you rated 4/5. I'd love to give it a go. Thanks, Carin Yorke-Hart

Good stay.

Accommodation was good for my needs. No TV in the room, for some it would be necessary. I stayed three nights, was only at the property at night time. Didn't do any sightseeing, so can't comment on that. A hotel and other restaurants were close by for something to eat, just outside of the property.

Drop Anchor 's response

Hi Kotie, thanks for the review. Please give me an indication of how to improve from a 4 to a 5. I would appreciate it. I do inform guests that there is no TV, but feel free to bring your laptop next time. Regards, Carin

Baie lekker!

Ons het baie lekker gebly. Sal weer teruggaan. Dit is naby die strand en ander plekke. Die plek is maar net vir slaap en stort. Koffie maak al is daar 'n kombuis, waarde in kan ons net die ketel gebruik het. Daar is nie plek vir kosmaak.

Very nice!

We had a very nice stay. Will go back again. It is close to the beach and other places. The place is only for sleeping and showering. Makes coffee even though there is a kitchen, value in we could have just used the kettle. There is no place for cooking.

Hello Andre, ek is bly julle het dit geniet. Soos ek adverteer, is daar definitief nie geriewe vir kosmaak nie. Ongelukkig het julle nie die braaigeriewe gebruik nie! Dit is ook nie geskik vir meer as 2 persone nie. Hoop om julle weer te sien en dat julle dan 'n braai sal geniet. Vriendelike groete, Carin en Walkabout.
