Enjoyed it a lot, if there's anything you need. Very comfortable and neat, good location and sea view.

Het dit baie geniet, als is daar wat jy nodig het. Baie gerieflik en netjies, goeie ligging en see uitsig.

Beautiful view. Lovely and neat accommodation. We stayed on the top floor with a beautiful view of the sea. The unit has everything you need.

Pragtige uitsig. Heerlike en netjiese verblyf. Ons het op die boonste verdieping gebly met 'n pragtige uitsig oor die see. Die eenheid het alles wat jy nodig het.

Sleeping with the waves. Magnificent. The view was just perfect. The place to stay is really clean, enjoyable and well equipped. We were warmly welcomed.

A perfect place to stay in Jacobsbaai. Great location. Very clean, great shower, great bed, great linen, Weber to braai on and the sound of the ocean to put you to sleep. Highly recommend MM. And Dewald was always just a call away when I needed him. Thanks Dewald, we had a wonderful start to our holiday in Jacobsbaai.

Beautiful place in Jacobs Bay. Well equipped. The fireplace inside the place was great. We had a very nice stay.

Pragtige plekkie in Jacobsbaai. Goed toegerus. Die kaggel binne die plek was baie. Ons het baie lekker gebly.

Lovely private overnight stay for two people. We had a wonderful stay. Everything we needed was available. Would like to make one recommendation: The view of the ocean is the biggest asset of 'The Magical Mongoose', especially no. 3. But as soon as you sit quietly on the chairs with that complimentary wine in hand, that view disappears behind a beautiful stark white wall. If that wall were glass, it would make all the difference to the West Coast. I think it makes architectural sense.

Heerlike private oornag vir twee mense. Ons het heerlik gebly. Alles wat nodig is, was beskikbaar. Sou een aanbeveling wil maak: Die uitsig op die see is die grootste bate van 'The Magical Mongoose', veral nr. 3. Maar sodra jy rustig op die stoele gaan sit met daardie komplimentêre wyn in die hand, verdwyn daardie uitsig agter 'n mooi spierwit muur. As daardie muur glas is, sal dit die Weskus wêreldse verskil maak. Ek dink dit maak argitektonies sin.

Thanks, Kobus! And you're right about that wall! It falls outside the architectural guidelines, but I think I'll still do it.

Dankie, Kobus! En jy is reg oor daai muur! Dit val buite die argitektoniese riglyne, maar ek dink ek gaan dit nog doen

Wonderful! Paul, the owner, was great at communicating with us prior to arrival and was very prompt in answering the questions I had about the size of Unit 2. Daria at the website was also very prompt and helpful. Although we only had a partial view, we were very close to the boardwalk and beach – the sunsets and moonrises were spectacular! The only recommendations I have are to please supply a proper toaster and a broom. We initially struggled to get the TV working but eventually figured it out. DStv did give problems during the Liverpool football match and we couldn't watch the second half, but Netflix worked fine.
