De Uijlenes

We self catered. The kitchen was not properly equipped for self catering. Presumably most guests do not self cater. The kitchen was large but didn't have basic pots, pans, kitchen utensils, chopping board etc for cooking breakfast or an evening meal.

It was clearly focussed on being a wedding venue rather than a place for weekday guests. Could not understand why the cost of booking through Booking.com was treated as an overseas payment in foreign currency and attracting a bank fee as if for a foreign payment. I live in SA and booked local accommodation and was quoted in SA Rands. Do not appreciate it going through a foreign bank with associated fees.

Cannot praise enough, it was a huge surprise! I was expecting something good, but not perfect! We really loved every aspect of this place. The house is beautiful, well decorated, very comfortable furniture, well designed space, great outdoor warm pool and amazing views. The kids were thrilled to see the animals from their bedroom window (horses, sheep, etc). We also had an expected visit on Christmas night, a female Impala! Just outside, wandering quietly. I can imagine myself travelling all the way from Europe to SA again just to stay here once more. Most probably we will. Our days around Gansbaai were unforgettable and this place contributed greatly to our sweet memories.

The only downside are the pictures on the listing, they dont make the place any justice :p

The rooms were beautiful and and the setting great. Very relaxing and the birdlife was special.

Nothing.

We loved everything about our stay.

This is definitely a wonderful place and we had so much fun in the hot tub and the braai facilities was top.

We loved the venue, the nature, the cute dogs, the host was extremely accommodating and friendly and gave us a little speaker to use for some music when we forgot to bring ours :)

They didn't have bowls for us to use for breakfast, only plates.
