- Hayley (8/5): -
- M Omar (8/5): -
- Nkcayo (8/5): - Enough space for the family No air freshener in the toilet
- Pamela (3/5): - Nothing There were extra fees requested for early booking in, that were asked of me which I did not have a budget for, no towels. Lift got jammed more than once. Lights got disconnected early in the morning because of a prepaid system. R750 requested for breakage deposit with immediate clearance however upon return it wasn't given back with immediate clearance. Pillows were hard, there was a bad smell and a dripping sound from the Aircon. The prepaid metre beeped the entire night because there were very little units of electricity on it. We never got sleep last night and had to travel almost 6 hours the next day. I am extremely disappointed with the accommodation.
- Busisiwe (4/5): - The Oceanic staff was unfriendly, we went to the beach in the morning when we came they told us they are cleaning the receiption wemust wait outside for them to finish.
We went to use the parking lot entry and that guy we will not enter there we are not cars really we felt mistreated.
While thenight before we were braai in pool area it was 8:50 when the gentleman told us he is closing up, can we kindly finish braai as our meet is already on the braaistand he refusedwhile its 10 minutrs before.

- Shadren (1/5): I was absolutely unhappy. I’ve contacted the owner of the apartment and got no joy.. - It was absolutely pathetic..I would never recommend anyone to stay at this place..
It had become a total nightmare staying in an unhealthy environment..
There agent was so useless as he informed us about the toilet situation but did not assist in repairing it.. the dampness was so terrible.
The check list provided when you arrive had almosted every item missing..
The fridge was not cleaned.
Tv is as good as not having one..
It was absolutely devastating.. Absolutely everything is a mess..

- Dengu (8/5): Very good -
- Nolwazi (7/5): Oceanic stay - It's not my first time in Oceanic. It is a good place to stay, and the rooms are spacious and spotless, but this time, I was disappointed. The host must make sure that their cleaners clean the unit. The first thing I looked at after I checked in was the bathroom. It was dirty, the floor, I even saw stains on the bed cover, and I was really disappointed by its uncleanness.

- Padayachee (4/5): Need for minor Upgrades - A very centrally located place easy and convenient to all ammunities. Ideal size unit for a family of four.Nice safe undercover parking with security I didn't like it on arrival the unit was not cleaned at all from the previous people that occupied the unit, i had contacted the owner to sort it out too where he arranged a cleaner on the premises to clean, on our check in that we had to wait 2 hours after a 2 hour drive and then with the heat and humidity none of the 2 air-conditionings work and absolutely no fan as a backup which made sleeping a problem.Then the place has small cockroaches that also impacted our sleep making it very unpleasant that we had checked out as soon as possible. Once these issues are rectified the place will be a great stay in unit
- Vuyolwethu (1/5): Cockrochs all over the place bad smell air-conditioned not working bed bugs my kids got bitten in - Nothing at all .. I'm actually very upset situation was unpleasant Shoo never had such experience in my whole entire life 😔 The place is not well maintained and very dirty bed bugs that sleeping couch was very dirty smelling my kids got bitten by the bed bugs myself also..cockrochs were all over the place.. this is not a way of doing business we are not there for free.. the bathroom basin very old toilet smelling I don't wanna talk about towels very old.. the couch cushions very dirty... air-conditioned not working at all we were dying by the heat could not wait for sunset to leave the place... don't be fooled by pictures what a disaster 😑
