Baie netjies, goeie ligging en waarde vir geld.

Uitstekende ligging, stil, maar net 'n paar treë weg van die strand. Alles wat jy nodig het vir luukse, kort verblyf!

Very tidy, good location and value for money.

Excellent location, quiet but only a few steps away from the beach. Everything you need for a luxurious short stay!

Serene, quaint and quiet! Loved it!

My hubby and I needed a quick little staycation and the Melkboss Inn was just perfect. We had everything we needed, close to shops and within walking distance from the beach. We will definitely be back in summer with the family!

Disappointing.

The location is awesome. Upon arrival, I was very happy. I saw not many issues. When it came to the evening, we noticed the air conditioning was broken. We also chose this specific place because of the beautiful bath, but there was a sign next to the bath that said please don't use the bath and rather shower. This was shocking to me as we are paying to rent the place and now cannot have a bath. The tap was also leaking, and there is black mould from moisture on the ceilings in the passage and in the bathroom. Upon communication with the owner, he just moved us to the unit next door and said he would get someone to repair the defects noticed in that one. Straight after, the next day, someone else had come to stay in the unit.

Melkboss Inn 's response

Dear Sarah
We are sorry to hear about your disappointing experience. Please note that we were not aware of the A/C which was switching off when it reached a temperature above 24 degrees. We immediately contacted our technician to come and look at it when you brought it to our attention. We try to save as much water as we can. There is no sign in the unit saying you may not take a bath. It says, "Please use the shower instead of the bath and help us save water". In most hotels, B&Bs, etc. you will see signs similar to our save water sign. We agree that the mould marks which were on the ceiling were unacceptable. We moved you to another unit to sort this out. We immediately used a mould remover which one can spray onto a surface and then wipe off. We cleaned the five spots quickly and with ease. There was a very small water leak by the connection of the handheld shower and the main tap to the bath. It only occurred when the handheld shower was in operation in the bath. The washer inside the tap was a little worn out and was replaced immediately. The person who used the unit the following day had no complaints. He is a regular customer to our establishment and was very happy with the unit. We have taken care of all the issues you have raised here. Thank you for bringing it to our attention.

Klein, netjiese woonstel met oulike dekor. Swak toegeruste kombuis.

Die plek het 'n pragtige swembad en mooi lapa. Ongelukkig is daar geen pot of stoof nie. Vir 'n selfsorgeenheid het ons beter verwag.

Rus jou siel!

Ons het 4 aande daar geslaap. Fantasties toegerus met geriewe. Loopafstand strand toe en perfek geleë om Kaapstad en Weskus toe te gaan en meer. Die braaigeriewe word daagliks skoongemaak. Skoon en netjies. Wat wel verandering of tekortkomend is, is 'n toiletdeur wat kan toemaak wat mens meer privaatheid gee. Verder sal ek definitief weer daar slaap.

We slept there for 4 nights. Fantastically equipped with facilities. Walking distance to the beach and perfectly located to go to Cape Town and the West Coast and more. The braai facilities are cleaned daily. Clean and tidy. What does change or is lacking is a toilet door that can close which gives one more privacy. Furthermore, I will definitely sleep there again.

Fantastiese bly- en kuier-ervaring.

Fantastiese bly-ervaring, eenheid is groot genoeg om alle vakansiebehoeftes vir 2 persone te bied, die kombuisiedeel is goed toegerus vir die tipiese vakansieganger, genoegsame pak- en hangplek vir klere en ander goedjies wat saamtrek. Die lekker deel van Melk'Bos en die ander eenhede is die beskikbaarheid van lekker braai-area met swembad en genoegsame hout om jou ervaring by die see te verbreed. Alhoewel nie direkte see-uitsig nie, is mens letterlik net om die hoek vanaf die strand, genoegsame lekker oggend- en aand-stapplek op die mooi skoon, wit strande van Melkbosstrand.

Fantastic stay and visit experience.

Fantastic living experience, unit is large enough to provide all holiday needs for 2 people, the kitchenette area is well equipped for the typical holidaymaker, ample storage and hanging space for clothes and other things that come together. The nice part of Melk'Bos and the other units is the availability of a nice braai area with swimming pool and enough wood to broaden your experience at the sea. Although not a direct sea view, one is literally just around the corner from the beach, a nice enough morning and evening walk on the beautiful clean, white beaches of Melkbosstrand.

Pragtige blyplek, lig en vars gevoel.

Die plekkie is als wat op die webtuiste geadverteer word. Wat ons die meeste van gehou het is die privaatheid, die gasheer is nie die heeltyd in jou geselskap nie en ons het al vergeet daar is ander mense om die draai. En hulle hondjie is pragtig!
