Guest Reviews
- Marietjie (8/5): -
- Ianosh (10/5): Чисто, уютно, безопасно 👍🏻 - Хорошая чистая и уютная комната, есть удобная зона для барбекю на веранде и отличный вид на море. Безопасный район, можно свободно прогуляться 👍🏻
- Elmarie (8/5): -
- Fanie (9/5): -
- Rosalyn (10/5): Bonito - Me gustó cómo estaba distribuido el alojamiento y todo estuvo implecable cuando llegamos.
- Jake (6/5): Fine spot to stay, we stayed in April, house was quite cold. Great value otherwise. - Good value, nice brai area, nice garden and good parking. Host was responsive . Our section was quite cold, space heaters were broken.
- Rossouw (7/5): We didn’t stay there because we just needed to rest and travel further the next morning. The neighs were having a barbec - It is very clean and beautiful. If you’re looking for a quiet place to stay the evening, this place is probably not for you, but if you’re looking for a place to sit and relax and make fire and you don’t mind the neighbors doing the same then this place is perfect.
- Clive (10/5): Excellent - Nice and comfy. Friendly and helpful host
- Francois (8/5): A bit of a maze hit more than comfortable - Good rooms with views and more than enough space for us for 1 night Bit of a maze to get to our rooms but nothing major
- Wendy (7/5): Good value, maybe needs a go over of supplies? - My daughter & the kids said it was great She mentioned there was NO toilet paper! That seems odd for accommodation facility?
- Chanel (10/5): -
- Kruger (5/5): - Only the view of the sea The bed was broken
- Kruger (9/5): - Die see view Die bed is bjie stukkend maar ander was dit baie lekker
- Isabella (9/5): - The Quietness the view 🪟
- Abigale (9/5): -
- Matthews (9/5): - Quiet location.
Lovely welcome
2 separate rooms.
- Harrison (5/5): -
- Marisa (5/5): Mostly enjoyed it. - I like the size of the rooms and the private braai area. I was a bit disappointed in the clean up services. Other facilities we used previously cleaned every second day, and here we only had a cleaner once during the 7 days. So it maybe thatnis the way they do it but it was not something I was used to.
- Dreyer (10/5): - Yes Yes
- Utian (7/5): -
- Aman (10/5): -
- J (9/5): Easy to book and the agent was very accommodating even though my wife arrived 4 hours ahead of time. - I was not there myself, but my wife and son were very impressed. They arrived earlier than expected and were assisted by the agent with no issues at all. The place was in good neighborhood, clean and well lit. They were hoping to stay longer.
- Marinda (7/5): - Was extremely hot in the room. No aircon.
- Bukiwe (10/5): - Unfortunately I did not stay in the place but the host immediately called upon realising that there was a double booking, and she found an alternative place right across the road. Appreciated her care, would def recommend booking this place.
- Ms. Anna A ♡ (8/5): one day in dana bay -
- Carla (1/5): Very Bad!! I will not recommend this place to anyone - Location was Good It is unacceptable to allow people to stay in a room like this for the price that was charged. To make matters worse, this is apparently their “most expensive room” — we paid R1,750 per night. The room is honestly not even worth R750.
The layout is impractical and uncomfortable: the basin is inside the shower, the toilet is in a very awkward space, and the bed does not meet basic standards at all.
When making the booking, you are given the option to select rooms, but for this specific room there are no photos or previews available (see screenshot). Had we been able to see what the room actually looks like beforehand, we definitely would not have booked it.
I would honestly be embarrassed to let guests sleep in a place like this — especially at that price.
- Larry (5/5): - Location, conveniently situated to where I needed to be Bedroom light didn't work, hot water didn't work too well, toilet needed maintenance
- Barnes (1/5): -
- Mentz (8/5): -
- Robert (6/5): The room we got was not looking like the room we saw on the picture - Yes Was in a safe neighbourhood
- Geyers (10/5): - The area the overall accommodation the view stunning 😍 No complaints
- BB (9/5): Great value for money h - The host was magnificent he was very helpful and accommodating. we would definitely go back. Access to the beach, private balcony, kitchen and ability to have a barbecue or as they say in SA a Brie
- De Ruyter (10/5): -
- Modupe (5/5): -
- Suzi (9/5): - Super location and super clean
- Julie (1/5): - There is nothing good to this property. Bathroom wash basin was inside the shower cubicle. Beds was worn out, with the springs hurts when sleeping. beds were not good, and the bed springs were hurting us. Bathroom in the 4 sleeper house had a damp smell. DSTV and the TV was not working. Bathroom basin was in the shower cubicle. Our stay at this place was absolutely terrible.
- Schmidt (8/5): -
- Adrian-G (10/5): - Thecplace was quite and safe, the room big and neat as well as the shower was great. Lol they have a lots of agate but understand if safety and the parking was full so we had to park out.
- Ruiters (10/5): -
- Mark (8/5): Very good -
- Nick (7/5): Good -
- Brian (9/5): Superb -
- Wayne (9/5): Superb - The Braai Area.
The small wild life next to the cottage.
The sea view from the room and braai area.
The garden tea area.
Parking inside the premises.
Petru and the cat.
- Natalie (7/5): 3 Night stay - Amazing bird life, great room size, apartment layout, bathroom size were generous,, beds were great The wifi was not working for the whole stay. The close proximity to the other units was not great, there were often people waiting outside our unit for their lift or walking past our windows. The braai area was not private, the sea view was tiny and a glimpse through trees, not what I expected. There was no oven as advertised, some of the crockery had not been cleaned, there were no braai tongs
- Smith (9/5): Superb -
- Busisiwe (10/5): It's a beautiful and peaceful place😊. Love Petru she's such a doll. - Petru is such a warm and beautiful lady. So welcoming and Makes you feel like you just arrived to your second home. I love it and will go back agan 😊 Nothing
- Mark (8/5): Very good -
- Coetzee (9/5): Superb - The room was big,clean and comfy. Had all the things to self cater and tv with full dstv
- Mell (7/5): Good -
- Rapitsi (8/5): Amazing and peaceful stay. - The view from the unit was amazing. The unit was comfortable and clean with hot water at all times. The kitchen was well equipped with everything we needed. Tannie Hannie was warm and available to assist with all our needs. Nothing.
- Michael (7/5): Good -
- Watson (5/5): Really not what we expected from a property in Danna Bay. - The property is located in a nice neighborhood with a view of the ocean. The person who manages the property wasn't very friendly and treated us as thought we were Jehovah witnesses.
The room had an interlocking door connecting it to the main house. We could hear every conversation the lady had with the child. Not to mention the noisy bird.
- Yolandi (5/5): It was ok. Hannie was very helpful. - It had all the facilities to stay for a week The bed and cushions. there should be proper bedding.
- Terry-robin (1/5): Ripoff - Nothing!!!! Everything!!!
- Joseph (8/5): Very good - Very safe and quiet location.
- Futho (6/5): Pleasant - Spacious Linen old, tacky and substandard. No duvet inner only duvet cover to sleep with. Difficult to locate the host during my stay
- Stephen (6/5): Pleasant -
- Venter (10/5): Exceptional -
- Acob (10/5): Nice place with sea view nice reception from Hannie - We did not eat
- Makena (1/5): Bad - The owners simply didn't open up. I was at the gate for a while and hooted and tried calling more than 4 times, but the phone was never answered. The worst part is the host did not even call back the next day or anything, but hey 🤷♂️ you pay in advance, so I guess they were happy they got their money. I called the host before getting there and we agreed that I'd arrive between 23:00-00:00 and the host said it was okay and even said they'd send someone to open, I must just call when I'm at the gate. I understand it's late but if the time wasn't okay then don't agree to it. Anyway, I ended up finding another place to stay an hour away, which was beautiful. I still can't believe the host did not call back the following day, I would've honestly understood if they called and said they passed out or something because it was late even though I asked beforehand if i could arrive at that time.
- Sanette (10/5): Exceptional -
- Elrico (8/5): Very good -
- Morne (9/5): Nice and safe - Nice and friendly No place to eat after 6 in dana baai
- Zoi (9/5): Hannie made our stay. - Hannie welcomed us warmly and couldn't do enough to make us comfortable, tell us about the area , recommend restaurants and even managed find us a map. She arranged a taxi service after we struggled to find one ourselves and even went as far as getting a bag I had forgotten in the room to me as soon as we completed our hike. She is the most valuable asset to the establishment.
- Mamoshibudi (8/5): Very good - We had a stand alone house for our stay which offer privacy. A quite and safe place to be. Nothing

- Elmarie (8/5): Stay was Average - The hosts was friendly and pleasant. privacy not very good for couples. people moving around past our unit in evening while staying at unit.
