Good day, it's quite astonishing that when some people book a house, they think that they are exempt from the laws of South Africa and because they paid, they can make as much noise as they please. When noise starts disturbing the whole street, and you have no respect for other property owners around you, then surely it becomes a problem. The noise was not coming from children, but adults that were sitting with music boxes outside for the whole neighbourhood to hear. All our guests enjoy music, and yet they still remain respectful of those around them. Betty's Bay is a Biosphere with strict light pollution laws at night; therefore, bright outside lights are not allowed on any property as it disturbs the nightlife. There is ample light for the hot tub at night when the balcony light is switched on. Kleinmond, Betty's Bay, Pringle Bay as well as Rooi Els work with septic tank systems; therefore, when the truck pumps the tank, there will be a smell, which quickly departs again.
