It was very pleasant and the cooler was the winner. Would love to go again anytime. Yes, the place was clean. Only the sink's pipe does not work well. It is loose and was difficult to wash the dishes.

Dit was baie aangenaam en die verkoeler was die wenner. Sal enige tyd weer wil gaan. Ja, die plek was skoon. Net die wasbak se pyp werk nie goed nie. Dit is los en was moeilik om die skottelgoed te was.

Braai place too far from accommodation. Room was clean and tidy, braai place too far from accommodation.

Braai plek te ver vanaf verblyf. Kamer was skoon en reg, braai plek te ver van af verblyf.

Neat place that needs some attention. The porch, chairs and table have not been cleaned for a long time. There are no rags or anything to clean it with. The outside broom box is full of wasps and the light by the braai area is full of water. The braai area is also far from the unit.

Netjiese plek wat bietjie aandag kort. Die stoep, stoele en tafel is lanklaas skoongemaak. Daar is nie lappe of iets om dit mee skoon te maak nie. Die buite besemkas is vol perdebye en die lig by die braai area is vol water. Die braai area is ook ver van die eenheid af.

Disappointing and feels like I was tricked. When we arrived at the unit on Sunday in sweltering conditions, half an hour after we were able to check in, the unit had not been serviced at all. When we contacted them, we were immediately told that cleaners were already on their way. Good customer service would have been to contact us and warn us of the problem - at least then we could have been prepared if we walked into a dirty unit. The cleaning of the unit was not up to standard at all. For example, the table on the porch was never washed or wiped in the five days we were there. If you open the curtains, it is clear that the floor has not been washed. Unit maintenance urgently needs attention. Burnt-out plugs are a hazard. When it rains, it leaks in the back door. We used one of the unit's towels to stop the water running under the door. The next morning, cleaners took a wet towel, but did not replace what we left with one towel between 2 people. Although we were aware of limited DStv, only 2 channels, 144 and 400, were working - so very, very limited. There was clearly a fault. Although we reported it, nothing was done about it. There was no hot water available for showers on two mornings.

Teleurstellend en voel of ek ingeloop is. Toe ons Sondag in snikhete omstandighede by die eenheid opdaag, 'n halfuur na ons kon inboek, was die eenheid glad nie gediens nie. Toe ons kontak maak, is ons dadelik meegedeel dat skoonmakers reeds op pad is. Goeie kliëntediens sou wees om ons te kontak en te waarsku van die probleem - ten minste kon ons dan voorbereid wees as om in 'n vuil eenheid in te stap. Die skoonmaak van die eenheid was glad nie op standaard nie. So bv. is die tafel op die stoep nooit afgewas of afgevee in die vyf dae wat ons daar was. Skuif jy die gordyne oop, is dit duidelik dat die vloer nie gewas is nie. Eenheid onderhoud kort dringend aandag. Uitgebrande plug is 'n gevaar. As dit reën, lek dit by die agterdeur in. Ons het een van die eenheid se handdoeke gebruik om die water te stop wat onder die deur inloop. Die volgende oggend het skoonmakers 'n nat handdoek gevat, maar nie vervang wat ons met een handdoek tussen 2 persone gelaat het nie. Alhoewel ons bewus was van beperkte DStv, het slegs 2 kanale, 144 en 400, gewerk - dus baie, baie beperk. Daar was duidelik 'n fout. Alhoewel ons dit rapporteer het, is niks daaraan gedoen nie. Daar was twee oggende glad nie warm water beskikbaar om te stort nie.

Very disappointed. Unit we booked was already full with other people. Unit was very neglected and was very dirty. DStv didn't work at all. The key's lock on the front door was broken. Cutlery and glasses were dirty. Shower was very dirty. Refrigerator's freezer section was broken. Boma did not come to clean the next day. Sink faucet is loose. Outside patio table and chairs were very dirty. Bedding had blood marks on it. Units really need urgent attention.

Baie teleurgesteld. Eenheid wat ons bespreek het was reeds vol met ander mense. Eenheid is baie verwaarloos en was baie vuil. DStv het glad nie gewerk nie. Sleutel se slot by voordeur was stukkend. Eetgerei en glase was vuil. Stort was baie vuil. Yskas se vriesdeel was gebreek. Boma was nie die volgende dag kom skoonmaak nie. Wasbak se kraan is los. Buitestoep se tafel en stoele was baie vuil. Beddegoed het bloedmerke opgehad. Eenhede kort regtig dringend aandag.

Unforgettable! The location is incredibly beautiful, the place was very tidy and the tranquility was very nice after a busy week. Would definitely recommend and would definitely go again.

Onvergeetlik! Ligging is ongelooflik mooi, plek was baie netjies en die rustigheid was vreeslik lekker na 'n besige week. Sal dit definitief aanbeveel en sal definitief weer gaan.

It was fantastic. We had such a great rest and it was worth every penny. We will definitely go again.

Dit was fantasties. Ons het so lekker uitgerus en dit was elke sent werd. Ons sal beslis weer gaan.

Enjoyable but not for an extended stay. It was difficult to enjoy all the advertised amenities without extensive travel throughout the resort. Additionally, the site maps provided on request were not very helpful.
