Wonderful.
Received SMS that we could book earlier, what a bonus, location perfect with washing machine if you wanted to do laundry, got nicest welcome letter on bed, she had special book of things to do and where to eat which helped a lot . Very friendly and the house is just as beautiful. 2 bedrooms with air conditioning, nice kitchen, crockery, everything in great condition. The surprise was that there was a barbecue. Small braai outside with a nice sitting area to relax after a day at sea.

Well equipped. Friendly host and hostess. Safe with security gate.
It was very hot, but luckily the unit was equipped with air conditioners in the bedrooms. The unit is well equipped and everything worked. Lovely family that received me. I was very close to where I needed to be in Richards Bay. Plenty of storage space in the cupboards. Very economical accommodation and I will definitely stay there again.

Will never book at this place again.
I went on business and checked into The Nest. I woke up the first morning to take a shower, only to find that the faucets were terribly difficult to open. I got it open after a while but couldn't get it closed again. I sent Tanya a Whatsapp early in the morning and informed her about the problem because the shower was still spraying water and I can't get the taps to close. She messaged me back to say that the previous guests had also complained and she got the taps turned off with ease. She then later went in to close the taps but couldn't get it closed either. She then texted me that she couldn't do anything about it until I left. I texted her back that I had to travel back to JHB the next day and it was going to be difficult to sleep with the noise the running water was making. She just didn't answer me plain and simple and avoided me with great difficulty. Point 1: someone complained about it and she did nothing about it. Point 2: taps don't just turn on overnight, it's from a long time of no maintenance. Point 3: they could do something about it but just chose not to do anything about it. I wish the previous people had put it on review then I would never have checked in there.

Aileen, ek is jammer dat jy voel ek het niks daaromtrent gedoen nie.
Ek het die kraan baie meer toe gekry as wat jy hom gehad het en daar was baie min en saggies druppels wat geval het. Daar is ook 'n tweede slaapkamer met 'n gemaklike bed en lugversorging wat jy kon gebruik het. Die badkamer deur en die deur tussen die kamers kon toe gemaak het om te kon slaap, sou dit jou wakker gehou het.
My boodskap aan jou het gesê dat die bouer het gesê om by die pype uit te kom met teels tot by die dak gaan ons die hele stort/badkamer moet oordoen en dus het ek gesê as jy uit is kan ons dit eers doen. Natuurlik wou ons nie bouwerk laat plaasvind terwyl jy daar gebly het nie vir net nog 1 aand.
Die stort kop sowel as die krane is splinternuut, dus word onderhoud gereeld gedoen en so gou as moontlik.
Die vorige gaste het die eenkeer gesê oor die kraan, toe kry ek hom maklik toe. Hulle het nie weer gesukkel nie dus het ons niks verder gedoen nie.
Ons is ook jammer om te sien dat 'n kraan, die sekuriteit, lokasie en skoonheid affekteer en dat daar niks positiefs vir jou was nie.
Ons het so ver net goeie resensies gekry oor ons Fish Eagle eenheid en dus kan ons ook net regmaak soos wat gaste vir ons laat weet. Die bouer kom volgende week omdat ons nou weet dit is nie net die rubber seals en krane wat die probleem is nie.

For sleeping over and not for self catering.
There is nothing to do in the room when the weather is bad. They can definitely consider getting a TV. I give it 3 stars.

Hi Johan,
Dankie vir die terugvoering.
Ongelukkig is die spasie beperk en dus net n "bar fridge" wat inpas soos op die "website" gesê is. Jammer oor die kos wat bederf was.
