• Wilton (10/5): Great, wonderful and peaceful . - The views was exceptional. The area was quiet and had much to offer. Close to the shops if you need to grab some groceries . Restaurants offer good food. Place is simply amazing
• Share (9/5): Superb -
• P34769 (8/5): Very good - Loved our stay here BUT the places really need Air-con as they get so warm and it made sleeping very difficult. There was a ceiling fan and a portable fan but all they did really was push hot air around. Aside from that, we loved it here. We had a 1 bedroom ground floor apartment. 2 sets of sliding doors opened up onto a gorgeous decking area, which overlooked the water. Lots of gorgeous homes around here to admire. There was a really good restaurant less than a minute's walk away. We took a pedalo raft out on the canal and played table tennis in the games area. The staff we interacted with were all very friendly and helpful. We used the pool a couple of times and that was nice too. Overall, a lovely stay in a lovely apartment and area but unfortunately would probably not return due to not sleeping well due to lack of air-conditioning Lack of air-conditioning.
• Melaney (8/5): Beautiful views - Beautiful, peaceful and calm. Pitty the slight breeze made that we couldn't make use of water activities they had. Another point is that theirs not much else to do when you can't make use of the water activities especially for the kids . But it was very nice and it's beautiful.

• 4x4medic (9/5): A walk down memory lane. - The location is excellent with nice restaurants close by. The unit was very clean and comfortable. The staff did their best to make us feel welcome and the assistance was outstanding. We booked an extra night and the booking went seamless. There are not enough wrongs to warrant a note or complaint. There is one thing which would be nice to have. If you make a booking, it would be great if you could see which unit is available as we are familiar with the location and have our favourite spot.
• Petronella (9/5): We have absolutely enjoyed our stay.. super nice!! - Ideally located. Spacious and convenient. Beautifully located.
• Alison (9/5): Fantastic break in a friendly, happy environment! - Even before you arrive at the property, you are made to feel welcome. We received a call to ask if we were celebrating a special occasion or if there was anything we needed. On arrival the reception was so friendly and efficient. The chalet had everything we needed. The bed was really comfortable. Being by the water is always a wonderful experience. There is a lot of bird life on the water. Plenty of activities and nice restaurants in the area. N/A

• Demus (9/5): The stay was very good, would definitely recommend. - The location was very good with awesome view. Activities were offered like the boat rides. Christmas carols were invited to listen too. Air-conditioning facilities to be added maybe in rooms as it was very hot.
• Nericia (10/5): Exceptional - Great view! Check in was a breeze. Amazing chalet! Staff very friendly and management is hands on. Had a brass band on Christmas eve..sooo awesome!
• Shanaaz (8/5): Very good -
• Marina (3/5): Poor - The location and the views Cleaning, Bedding didn't smell nice The fact that we were booked into a unit and had to move again the next day what an inconvenience. We ended up waiting half a day to move. The place needs a deep clean.
• Alet (8/5): Very good -
• Clive (10/5): 10 out of 10 it was tranquil, relaxing and just perfect - Location and apartment were perfect an interesting design and concept - very spacious with everything needed for a few days or for a couple of weeks. The apartment was easy to access and very nicely furnished. Kitchen and all appliances were as new condition. We thoroughly enjoyed our days at the apartment. The gardens and pool are well kept and nice to wander about in not applicable - this is a very nice apartment in a fantastic condition and location
• Bronwyn (10/5): I always love coming to Port Owen and the staff make it even better - I love the staff always friendly and welcoming Nothing
• Donovan (9/5): Superb - Everything Nothing
• Pamela (8/5): Pleasant stay at Port Owen - Guanita, Walter and our housekeeper Michelle were all friendly and very helpful. The villa was very clean and had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable and the bedrooom was bright and airy. The walks around the property were lovely. We went on a river boat cruise with 'Craklin Rosie' based in the next town, it was excellent and Wendy the owner came back to us straight away from a what's app message. The boat cruise advertised from the complex let us down. Charlie's restaurant was good, and we can recommend the gin from their own distillery which you can purchase from the shop. A pleasant 4 night stay. Nothing major to dislike, but everything in the property needs a good refurbishment. The lounge, kitchen area and bathroom were dark and the cupboards and wardrobes definitely need some attention, and the furniture was very dated These comments are for the property owners and not the staff who were excellent. The load shedding was something we hadn't known about and it made self catering very difficult as the times you would want to use the electric 6.30pm - 8.30pm you couldn't, although the times were messaged to us daily.
• Wragg (7/5): Was great, will be back again!! - we were not advised that work was being done on the braai outside, so had to wait until after 5pm to be able to open curtians/patio door and sit outside..
• Bronwyn (9/5): It was lovely - It was clean and it was a good layout. All convenient Nothing
• Fenana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Yumnah (8/5): Very good - Quiet, and peaceful. The place is comfortable and clean. Great getaway for the kids. The house was bigger than expected.
• Qingqi (10/5): Exceptional - Very comfortable, very clean, very quiet.
• Erigh (10/5): Stewarts on weekend break - Everything was great
• Christie-smith (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gillian (10/5): Exceptional - Giving out my details at reception. Receiving a marketing call during our stay.
• Erika (6/5): Pleasant - Cockroaches in unit. Leak in unit
• Cecilia (8/5): Very good -
• Rodney (10/5): Awesome - Location, cleanliness and overall condition of apartment Only the weather that weekend which nobody can do anything about the stay was still very enjoyable
